2 Samuel 16:11
16:11 Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “My own son, my very own flesh and blood,
is trying to take my life. So also now this Benjaminite! Leave him alone so that he can curse, for the
Lord has spoken to him.
2 Samuel 17:1-4
The Death of Ahithophel
17:1 Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Let me pick out twelve thousand men. Then I will go and pursue David this very night.
17:2 When I catch up with him he will be exhausted and worn out. I will rout him, and the entire army that is with him will flee. I will kill only the king
17:3 and will bring the entire army back to you. In exchange for the life of the man you are seeking, you will get back everyone. The entire army will return unharmed.”
17:4 This seemed like a good idea to Absalom and to all the leaders of Israel.
2 Samuel 17:14
17:14 Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, “The advice of Hushai the Arkite sounds better than the advice of Ahithophel.” Now the Lord had decided to frustrate the sound advice of Ahithophel, so that the Lord could bring disaster on Absalom.
Deuteronomy 21:18-21
21:18 If a person has a stubborn, rebellious son who pays no attention to his father or mother, and they discipline him to no avail,
21:19 his father and mother must seize him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his city.
21:20 They must declare to the elders of his city, “Our son is stubborn and rebellious and pays no attention to what we say – he is a glutton and drunkard.”
21:21 Then all the men of his city must stone him to death. In this way you will purge out wickedness from among you, and all Israel will hear about it and be afraid.
Psalms 103:13
103:13 As a father has compassion on his children,
so the Lord has compassion on his faithful followers.
Luke 23:34
23:34 [But Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.”]
Then
they threw dice to divide his clothes.
