And Absalom said unto him, See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.(2 Samuel 15:3)

Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man which hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!(2 Samuel 15:4)

And it was so, that when any man came nigh to him to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him.(2 Samuel 15:5)

And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment: so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.

And it came to pass after forty years, that Absalom said unto the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron.(2 Samuel 15:7)

For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Syria, saying, If the LORD shall bring me again indeed to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.(2 Samuel 15:8)

And the king said unto him, Go in peace. So he arose, and went to Hebron.(2 Samuel 15:9)
