1 Après cela, Absalom se procura un char et des chevaux, et cinquante hommes qui couraient devant lui.
2 Il se levait de bon matin, et se tenait au bord du chemin de la porte. Et chaque fois qu’un homme ayant une contestation se rendait vers le roi pour obtenir un jugement, Absalom l’appelait, et disait: De quelle ville es-tu? Lorsqu’il avait répondu: Je suis d’une telle tribu d’Israël,
3 Absalom lui disait: Vois, ta cause est bonne et juste; mais personne de chez le roi ne t’écoutera.
