2 Samuel 3:36

All the people took note of this, and it pleased them. In fact, everything the king did pleased them.

Absalom did this to all the Israelites who came to the king for a settlement. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.

Then an informer came to David and reported, “The hearts of the men of Israel are with Absalom.”

Men are only a vapor;
exalted men, an illusion.
Weighed in the scales, they go up;
together they are less than a vapor.

They were extremely astonished and said, “He has done everything well! He even makes deaf people hear, and people unable to speak, talk!”

But the chief priests stirred up the crowd so that he would release Barabbas to them instead.
