Easy-to-Read Version

Absalom Makes Many Friends

15 After this, Absalom got a chariot and horses for himself. He had 50 men run in front of him while he drove the chariot. ² Absalom would get up early and stand near the gate.^[a] He would watch for anyone with problems who was going to King David for judgment. Then Absalom would talk to them and say, “What city are you from?” They would say they were from such and such tribe in Israel. ³ Then Absalom would say, “Look, you are right, but King David will not listen to you.”
