Exegesis
The participle veshomea {וְשֹׁמֵ֥עַ | wə-šō-mēʿa} combined with einlekha {אֵין־לְךָ֖ | ʾēn-ləḵā} establishes the absence of a hearer, which is further specified by me’et hamelekh {מֵאֵ֥ת הַמֶּֽלֶךְ | mēʾēt ha-meleḵ}. The adversative “but” captures the contrast introduced by the Hebrew vav before the participle.
In context — 2 Samuel 15:3
And Absalom said to him, “See, your claims are good and right, but there is no one appointed by the king to hear you.”
