H302
Moreover Ahithophel
H559
said
H53
to Absalom,
H977
"Let me now choose
H8147
twelve
H505
thousand
H376
men,
H6965
and I will arise
H7291
and pursue
H310
after
H1732
David
H3915
tonight.
2
H935
I will come
H3023
on him while he is weary
H7504
and exhausted,
H3027
H2729
and will make him afraid.
H5971
All the people
H5127
who are with him shall flee.
H5221
I will strike
H4428
the king only;
3
H7725
and I will bring back
H5971
all the people
H376
to you. The man
H1245
whom you seek
H7725
is as if all returned.
H5971
All the people
H7965
shall be in peace."
5
H53
Then Absalom
H559
said,
H7121
"Now call
H2365
Hushai
H757
the Archite
H8085
also, and let us hear
H6310
likewise what he says."
6
H2365
When Hushai
H935
had come
H53
to Absalom,
H53
Absalom
H559
spoke
H559
to him, saying,
H302
"Ahithophel
H1696
has spoken
H1697
like this.
H6213
Shall we do
H1697
what he says?
H1696
If not, speak up."
7
H2365
Hushai
H559
said
H53
to Absalom,
H6098
"The counsel
H302
that Ahithophel
H3289
has given
H6471
this time
H2896
is not good."
8
H2365
Hushai
H559
said
H3045
moreover, "You know
H1
your father
H582
and his men,
H1368
that they are mighty men,
H4751
and they are fierce
H5315
in their minds,
H1677
like a bear
H7909
robbed
H7704
of her cubs in the field.
H1
Your father
H376
is a man
H4421
of war,
H3885
and will not lodge
H5971
with the people.
9
H2244
Behold, he is now hidden
H259
in some
H6354
pit,
H259
or in some
H4725
other place.
H5307
It will happen, when some of them have fallen
H8462
at the first,
H8085
that whoever
H8085
hears
H559
it will say,
H4046
‘There is a slaughter
H5971
among the people
H310
who follow
H53
Absalom!'
10
H1121
Even he who is valiant,
H3820
whose heart
H3820
is as the heart
H738
of a lion,
H4549
will utterly
H4549
melt;
H3478
for all Israel
H3045
knows
H1
that your father
H1368
is a mighty man,
H2428
and those who are with him are valiant
H1121
men.
11
H3289
But I counsel
H3478
that all Israel
H622
be gathered
H622
together
H1835
to you, from Dan
H884
even to Beersheba,
H2344
as the sand
H3220
that is by the sea
H7230
for multitude;
H1980
and that you go
H7128
to battle
H6440
in your own person.
12
H935
So shall we come
H259
on him in some
H4725
place
H4672
where he shall be found,
H5168
and we will light
H2919
on him as the dew
H5307
falls
H127
on the ground;
H582
and of him and of all the men
H3498
who are with him we will not leave
H1571
so much as
H259
one.
13
H518
Moreover, if
H622
he be gone
H5892
into a city,
H3478
then shall all Israel
H5375
bring
H2256
ropes
H5892
to that city,
H5498
and we will draw
H5158
it into the river,
H1571
until there isn't one
H6872
small stone
H4672
found there."
14
H53
Absalom
H376
and all the men
H3478
of Israel
H559
said,
H6098
"The counsel
H2365
of Hushai
H757
the Archite
H2896
is better
H6098
than the counsel
H302
of Ahithophel."
H3068
For Yahweh
H6680
had ordained
H6565
to defeat
H2896
the good
H6098
counsel
H302
of Ahithophel,
H5668
to the intent
H3068
that Yahweh
H935
might bring
H7451
evil
H53
on Absalom.
15
H2365
Then Hushai
H559
said
H6659
to Zadok
H54
and to Abiathar
H3548
the priests,
H302
"Ahithophel
H3289
counseled
H53
Absalom
H2205
and the elders
H3478
of Israel
H3289
that way; and I have counseled this way.
16
H7971
Now therefore send
H4120
quickly,
H5046
and tell
H1732
David,
H559
saying,
H3885
‘Don't lodge
H3915
this night
H6160
at the fords
H4057
of the wilderness,
H5674
but by all means
H5674
pass over;
H4428
lest the king
H1104
be swallowed up,
H5971
and all the people who are with him.'"
17
H3083
Now Jonathan
H290
and Ahimaaz
H5975
were staying
H5883
by En Rogel;
H8198
and a female servant
H1980
used to go
H5046
and tell
H1980
them; and they went
H5046
and told
H4428
king
H1732
David.
H3201
For they might
H7200
not be seen
H935
to come
H5892
into the city.
18
H5288
But a boy
H7200
saw
H5046
them, and told
H53
Absalom.
H8147
Then they both
H3212
went
H4120
away quickly,
H935
and came
H1004
to the house
H376
of a man
H980
in Bahurim,
H875
who had a well
H2691
in his court;
H3381
and they went down
H8033
there.
19
H802
The woman
H3947
took
H6566
and spread
H4539
the covering
H875
over the well's
H6440
mouth,
H7849
and spread
H7383
out bruised grain
H1697
on it; and nothing
H3045
was known.
20
H53
Absalom's
H5650
servants
H935
came
H802
to the woman
H1004
to the house;
H559
and they said,
H290
"Where are Ahimaaz
H3083
and Jonathan?"
H802
The woman
H559
said
H5674
to them, "They have gone over
H4323
the brook
H4325
of water."
H1245
When they had sought
H4672
and could not find
H7725
them, they returned
H3389
to Jerusalem.
21
H310
It happened, after
H3212
they had departed,
H5927
that they came up
H3212
out
H875
of the well,
H3212
and went
H5046
and told
H4428
king
H1732
David;
H5046
and they said
H1732
to David,
H6965
"Arise
H4120
and pass quickly
H5674
over
H4325
the water;
H302
for thus has Ahithophel counseled against you."
22
H1732
Then David
H6965
arose,
H5971
and all the people
H5674
who were with him, and they passed over
H3383
the Jordan.
H1242
By the morning
H216
light
H5737
there lacked
H259
not one
H5674
of them who had not gone over
H3383
the Jordan.
23
H302
When Ahithophel
H7200
saw
H6098
that his counsel
H6213
was not followed,
H2280
he saddled
H2543
his donkey,
H6965
and arose,
H3212
and went home,
H1004
to his
H5892
city,
H3212
and set his house
H6680
in order,
H2614
and hanged
H4191
himself; and he died,
H6912
and was buried
H6913
in the tomb
H1
of his father.
24
H1732
Then David
H935
came
H4266
to Mahanaim.
H53
Absalom
H5674
passed over
H3383
the Jordan,
H376
he and all the men
H3478
of Israel with him.
25
H53
Absalom
H7760
set
H6021
Amasa
H6635
over the army
H3097
instead of Joab.
H6021
Now Amasa
H1121
was the son
H376
of a man,
H8034
whose name
H3501
was Ithra
H3481
the Israelite,
H935
who went in
H26
to Abigail
H1323
the daughter
H5176
of Nahash,
H269
sister
H6870
to Zeruiah,
H3097
Joab's
H517
mother.
27
H1732
It happened, when David
H935
had come
H4266
to Mahanaim,
H7629
that Shobi
H1121
the son
H5176
of Nahash
H7237
of Rabbah
H1121
of the children
H5983
of Ammon,
H4353
and Machir
H1121
the son
H5988
of Ammiel
H3810
of Lodebar,
H1271
and Barzillai
H1569
the Gileadite
H7274
of Rogelim,
