in that you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have declared today that princes and servants are nothing to you. For today I perceive that if Absalom had lived and we had all died today, then it would have pleased you well.

ગુજરાતી2 શમુએલ ૧૯:૬
કેમ કે જેઓ તને ધિક્કારે છે તેઓને તું પ્રેમ કરે છે, જેઓ તને પ્રેમ કરે છે તેઓને તું ધિક્કારે છે. હે રાજા આજે તેં એ સ્પષ્ટ બતાવી આપ્યું છે કે સેનાપતિઓ અને સૈનિકો તારી સામે કંઈ નથી. હું વિશ્વાસથી કહું છું કે જો આજે આબ્શાલોમ જીવતો હોત અને અમે બધા મરી ગયા હોત તો તને તે ઘણું સારું લાગ્યું હોત.
हिन्दी2 शमूएल १९:६
इसलिए कि तू अपने बैरियों से प्रेम और अपने प्रेमियों से बैर रखता है। तूने आज यह प्रगट किया कि तुझे हाकिमों और कर्मचारियों की कुछ चिन्ता नहीं; वरन् मैंने आज जान लिया, कि यदि हम सब आज मारे जाते और अबशालोम जीवित रहता, तो तू बहुत प्रसन्न होता।
