ઇઝરાયલના સર્વ માણસોએ ઉતાવળે રાજા પાસે આવીને કહ્યું, “શા માટે અમારા ભાઈઓએ એટલે યહૂદિયાના માણસોએ, તમને કેમ ચોરી લીધા છે અને તારા કુટુંબને તથા તારી સાથે દાઉદના સર્વ માણસોને યર્દન પાર લઈ ગયા છે?”
हिन्दी2 शमूएल १९:४१
तब सब इस्राएली पुरुष राजा के पास आए, और राजा से कहने लगे, “क्या कारण है कि हमारे यहूदी भाई तुझे चोरी से ले आए, और परिवार समेत राजा को और उसके सब जनों को भी यरदन पार ले आए हैं।”

In context

39All the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over. Then the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.

40So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him. All the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.

41Behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, “Why have our brothers the men of Judah stolen you away, and brought the king and his household, over the Jordan, and all David’s men with him?”

42All the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is a close relative to us. Why then are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king’s cost? Or has he given us any gift?”

43The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more claim to David than you. Why then did you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?” The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
