King David sends to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and Judah comes to Gilgal to meet the king

다윗왕이 사독과 아비아달 두 제사장에게 기별하고 유다 족속이 왕을 맞으러 길갈로 옴

2 Samuel 19:9–15: all the people are at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom. Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why don’t you speak a word of bringing the king back?” King David sends to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the speech of all Israel has come to the king, to return him to his house? You are my brothers. You are my bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?’ Say to Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my bone and my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if you aren’t captain of the army before me continually instead of Joab.’” The text goes on, “He bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as one man, so that they sent to the king, saying, ‘Return, you and all your servants.’” So the king returns, and comes to the Jordan. Judah comes to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
