The king goes over to Gilgal, and the words of the men of Judah are fiercer than the words of the men of Israel

길갈로 건너온 왕과 이스라엘 사람의 말보다 더 강경한 유다 사람의 말

2 Samuel 19:40–43: so the king goes over to Gilgal, and Chimham goes over with him. All the people of Judah bring the king over, and also half the people of Israel. Behold, all the men of Israel come to the king, and say 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?” All the men of Judah answer 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?” The men of Israel answer the men of Judah, and say, “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 text says, “The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.” Where WEB reads “all David’s men with him”, the Korean Revised Version reads 왕을 좇는 모든 사람, all the men who follow the king.
