Verse 7
2 Samuel 19:7
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
7
Now therefore arise, and go out, and speak to the satisfaction of thy servants: for I swear to thee by the Lord, that if thou wilt not go forth, there will not tarry with thee so much as one this night: and that will be worse to thee, than all the evils that have befallen thee from thy youth until now.

To love your enemies and to hate your friends, for you have declared today that there are no princes and servants, for I know today that if Absalom were alive and all of us were dead today, then it would be right in your eyes.
