2 Samuel 15:3-5
New Life Version
3 Then Absalom would say to him, “Your side of the problem is good and right. But there is no man to listen to you for the king.” 4 And Absalom would say, “If only I were chosen to be the one to be judge in the land! Then every man who has a problem could come to me. And I would do for him what is right and fair.” 5 When a man came near to put his face to the ground in front of him, Absalom would put out his hand and take hold of him and kiss him.
