2 Samuel 19:42 in Context — 2 Samuel 19

40 O rei então passou a Gilgal, e com ele passou Quimã; e todo aquele povo de Judá, com a metade do povo de Israel, acompanharam o rei.

41 E eis que todos os homens de Israel vieram ao rei, e lhe disseram: Por que os homens de Judá, nossos irmãos, te levaram, e fizeram passar o Jordão ao rei e à sua família, e a todos os homens de Davi com ele?

42 E todos os homens de Judá responderam a todos os de Israel: Porque o rei é nosso parente. Mas por que vos irais vós disso? Temos nós comido algo do rei? Temos recebido dele algum presente?

43 Então responderam os homens de Israel, e disseram aos de Judá: Nós temos no rei dez partes, e no mesmo Davi mais que vós: por que, pois, nos haveis tido em pouco? Não falamos nós primeiro em voltar a nosso rei? E o argumento dos homens de Judá prevaleceu ao dos homens de Israel.
