2 Samuel 15:3-5

New King James Version

³ Then Absalom would say to him, “Look, your ^[a]case is good and right; but there is no ^[b]deputy of the king to hear you.” ⁴ Moreover Absalom would say, ^(A)“Oh, that I were made judge in the land, and everyone who has any suit or cause would come to me; then I would give him justice.” ⁵ And so it was, whenever anyone came near to bow down to him, that he would put out his hand and take him and ^(B)kiss him.
