Dan lagi kata Absalom: Jikalau kiranya aku dijadikan hakim dalam negeri ini, alangkah baiknya, supaya segala orang yang ada perkaranya atau perselisihan itu, boleh datang menghadap aku, niscaya aku membenarkan halnya kelak.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Oh that I: Judges 9:1-5, Judges 9:29, Proverbs 25:6, Luke 14:8-11

I would do: Proverbs 27:2, 2 Peter 2:19

Reciprocal: 1 Samuel 8:3 - his sons

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Absalom said, moreover,.... To the same persons, at the same time:

oh that I were made judge in the land; by which it appears that he had no office under the king; partly either because of his crime, and so not thought fit, and partly because he appeared to be an ambitious aspiring man, and so it was thought not safe to put him into any office:

that every man that hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice; at once, without any further trouble, or coming often, and in vain, and to no purpose.
