Bible Verses About Strife: Judah and Israel

And, lo, all the men of Israel are coming unto the king, and they say unto the king, `Wherefore have they stolen thee--our brethren, the men of Judah?' (and they bring the king and his household over the Jordan, and all the men of David with him).

And all the men of Judah answer against the men of Israel, `Because the king is near unto us, and why is this--ye are displeased about this matter? have we at all eaten of the king's substance? a gift hath he lifted up to us?'

And the men of Israel answer the men of Judah, and say, `Ten parts we have in the king, and also in David more than you; and wherefore have ye lightly esteemed us, that our word hath not been first to bring back our king?' And the word of the men of Judah is sharper than the word of the men of Israel.
