2 Samuel 17:14-29

And Absalom
<053>
and all the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
The counsel
<06098>
of Hushai
<02365>
the Archite
<0757>
[is] better
<02896>
than the counsel
<06098>
of Ahithophel
<0302>_.
For the LORD
<03068>
had appointed
<06680> (8765)
to defeat
<06565> (8687)
the good
<02896>
counsel
<06098>
of Ahithophel
<0302>_,
to the intent
<05668>
that the LORD
<03068>
might bring
<0935> (8687)
evil
<07451>
upon Absalom
<053>_.
{appointed: Heb. commanded}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Hushai
<02365>
unto Zadok
<06659>
and to Abiathar
<054>
the priests
<03548>_,
Thus and thus did Ahithophel
<0302>
counsel
<03289> (8804)
Absalom
<053>
and the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>_;
and thus and thus have I counselled
<03289> (8804)_.
Now therefore send
<07971> (8798)
quickly
<04120>_,
and tell
<05046> (8685)
David
<01732>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Lodge
<03885> (8799)
not this night
<03915>
in the plains
<06160> (8675) <05679>
of the wilderness
<04057>_,
but speedily
<05674> (8800)
pass over
<05674> (8799)_;
lest the king
<04428>
be swallowed up
<01104> (8792)_,
and all the people
<05971>
that [are] with him.
Now Jonathan
<03083>
and Ahimaaz
<0290>
stayed
<05975> (8802)
by Enrogel
<05883>_;
for they might
<03201> (8799)
not be seen
<07200> (8736)
to come
<0935> (8800)
into the city
<05892>_:
and a wench
<08198>
went
<01980> (8804)
and told
<05046> (8689)
them; and they went
<03212> (8799)
and told
<05046> (8689)
king
<04428>
David
<01732>_.
Nevertheless a lad
<05288>
saw
<07200> (8799)
them, and told
<05046> (8686)
Absalom
<053>_:
but they went
<03212> (8799)
both
<08147>
of them away quickly
<04120>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to a man's
<0376>
house
<01004>
in Bahurim
<0980>_,
which had a well
<0875>
in his court
<02691>_;
whither
<08033>
they went down
<03381> (8799)_.
And the woman
<0802>
took
<03947> (8799)
and spread
<06566> (8799)
a covering
<04539>
over the well's
<0875>
mouth
<06440>_,
and spread
<07849> (8799)
ground corn
<07383>
thereon; and the thing
<01697>
was not known
<03045> (8738)_.
And when Absalom's
<053>
servants
<05650>
came
<0935> (8799)
to the woman
<0802>
to the house
<01004>_,
they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Where [is] Ahimaaz
<0290>
and Jonathan
<03083>_?
And the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, They be gone over
<05674> (8804)
the brook
<04323>
of water
<04325>_.
And when they had sought
<01245> (8762)
and could not find
<04672> (8804)
[them], they returned
<07725> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And it came to pass, after
<0310>
they were departed
<03212> (8800)_,
that they came up
<05927> (8799)
out of the well
<0875>_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
and told
<05046> (8686)
king
<04428>
David
<01732>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>_,
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
and pass quickly
<04120>
over
<05674> (8798)
the water
<04325>_:
for thus hath Ahithophel
<0302>
counselled
<03289> (8804)
against you.
Then David
<01732>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and all the people
<05971>
that [were] with him, and they passed over
<05674> (8799)
Jordan
<03383>_:
by the morning
<01242>
light
<0216>
there lacked
<05737> (8738)
not one
<0259>
of them that was not gone over
<05674> (8804)
Jordan
<03383>_.
And when Ahithophel
<0302>
saw
<07200> (8804)
that his counsel
<06098>
was not followed
<06213> (8738)_,
he saddled
<02280> (8799)
[his] ass
<02543>_,
and arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and gat him home
<03212> (8799)
to his house
<01004>_,
to his city
<05892>_,
and put his household
<01004>
in order
<06680> (8762)_,
and hanged
<02614> (8735)
himself, and died
<04191> (8799)_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
in the sepulchre
<06913>
of his father
<01>_.
{followed: Heb. done} {put his...: Heb. gave charge concerning his house}
Then David
<01732>
came
<0935> (8804)
to Mahanaim
<04266>_.
And Absalom
<053>
passed over
<05674> (8804)
Jordan
<03383>_,
he and all the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
with him.
And Absalom
<053>
made
<07760> (8804)
Amasa
<06021>
captain of the host
<06635>
instead of Joab
<03097>_:
which Amasa
<06021>
[was] a man's
<0376>
son
<01121>_,
whose name
<08034>
[was] Ithra
<03501>
an Israelite
<03481>_,
that went in
<0935> (8804)
to Abigail
<026>
the daughter
<01323>
of Nahash
<05176>_,
sister
<0269>
to Zeruiah
<06870>
Joab's
<03097>
mother
<0517>_.
{Ithra an Israelite: or, Jether an Ishmaelite} {Abigail: Heb. Abigal} {Nahash: or, Jesse}
So Israel
<03478>
and Absalom
<053>
pitched
<02583> (8799)
in the land
<0776>
of Gilead
<01568>_.
And it came to pass, when David
<01732>
was come
<0935> (8800)
to Mahanaim
<04266>_,
that Shobi
<07629>
the son
<01121>
of Nahash
<05176>
of Rabbah
<07237>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
and Machir
<04353>
the son
<01121>
of Ammiel
<05988>
of Lodebar
<03810>_,
and Barzillai
<01271>
the Gileadite
<01569>
of Rogelim
<07274>_,
Brought
<05066> (8689)
beds
<04904>_,
and basons
<05592>_,
and earthen
<03335> (8802)
vessels
<03627>_,
and wheat
<02406>_,
and barley
<08184>_,
and flour
<07058>_,
and parched
<07039>
[corn], and beans
<06321>_,
and lentiles
<05742>_,
and parched
<07039>
[pulse], {basons: or, cups}
And honey
<01706>_,
and butter
<02529>_,
and sheep
<06629>_,
and cheese
<08194>
of kine
<01241>_,
for David
<01732>_,
and for the people
<05971>
that [were] with him, to eat
<0398> (8800)_:
for they said
<0559> (8804)_,
The people
<05971>
[is] hungry
<07457>_,
and weary
<05889>_,
and thirsty
<06771>_,
in the wilderness
<04057>_.
