OET (OET-RV) The men of Yisrael answered the men of Yehudah, “Our ten tribes give us ten shares in the king—more than you. So why do you look down on us?

ULT And a man of Israel answered a man of Judah, and he said, “Ten hands, are to me in the king, and also in David, I more than you. So why have you despised me? Was not my word first, to bring back my king to me?” ¶ But the word of a man of Judah was harsher than the word of a man of Israel.
UST The men of the other Israelite tribes replied, “We represent ten of the tribes that the Israelite king rules, and you represent only one. So you should not have treated us with disrespect by bringing the king back across the Jordan River without us. We were the first ones to talk about bringing David back to Jerusalem to be our king again.” But the leaders of Judah angrily disagreed with the leaders of the other tribes of Israel.
BSB & MSB “We have ten shares in the king,” answered the men of Israel, “so we have more claim to David than you. Why then do you despise us? Were we not the first to speak of restoring our king?” § But the men of Judah spoke more fiercely [than] the men of Israel.

T4T The men of the other Israeli tribes replied, “There are ten tribes in Israel, and only one in Judah. So it is ten times more right for us to say that David is our king than it is for you to say that. So why are you despising us [RHQ]?
