2 Samuel 17

Moreover Ahithophel
<0302>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Absalom
<053>_,

Let me now choose out
<0977> (8799)

twelve
<08147> <06240>

thousand
<0505>

men
<0376>_,

and I will arise
<06965> (8799)

and pursue
<07291> (8799)

after
<0310>

David
<01732>

this night
<03915>_:

And I will come
<0935> (8799)

upon him while he [is] weary
<03023>

and weak
<07504>

handed
<03027>_,

and will make him afraid
<02729> (8689)_:

and all the people
<05971>

that [are] with him shall flee
<05127> (8804)_;

and I will smite
<05221> (8689)

the king
<04428>

only:

And I will bring back
<07725> (8686)

all the people
<05971>

unto thee: the man
<0376>

whom thou seekest
<01245> (8764)

[is] as if all returned
<07725> (8800)_:

[so] all the people
<05971>

shall be in peace
<07965>_.

And the saying
<01697>

pleased
<03474> (8799)

Absalom
<053>

well
<05869>_,

and all the elders
<02205>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{pleased...: Heb. was right in the eyes of, etc}

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Absalom
<053>_,

Call
<07121> (8798)

now Hushai
<02365>

the Archite
<0757>

also, and let us hear
<08085> (8799)

likewise what he saith
<06310>_.

{what...: Heb. what is in his mouth}

And when Hushai
<02365>

was come
<0935> (8799)

to Absalom
<053>_,

Absalom
<053>

spake
<0559> (8799)

unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Ahithophel
<0302>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

after this manner
<01697>_:

shall we do
<06213> (8799)

[after] his saying
<01697>_?

if not; speak
<01696> (8761)

thou. {his saying: Heb. his word}

And Hushai
<02365>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Absalom
<053>_,

The counsel
<06098>

that Ahithophel
<0302>

hath given
<03289> (8804)

[is] not good
<02896>

at this time
<06471>_.

{given: Heb. counselled}

For, said
<0559> (8799)

Hushai
<02365>_,

thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

thy father
<01>

and his men
<0582>_,

that they [be] mighty men
<01368>_,

and they [be] chafed
<04751>

in their minds
<05315>_,

as a bear
<01677>

robbed
<07909>

of her whelps in the field
<07704>_:

and thy father
<01>

[is] a man
<0376>

of war
<04421>_,

and will not lodge
<03885> (8799)

with the people
<05971>_.

{chafed...: Heb. bitter of soul}

Behold, he is hid
<02244> (8737)

now in some
<0259>

pit
<06354>_,

or in some
<0259>

[other] place
<04725>_:

and it will come to pass, when some of them be overthrown
<05307> (8800)

at the first
<08462>_,

that whosoever
<08085> (8802)

heareth
<08085> (8804)

it will say
<0559> (8804)_,

There is a slaughter
<04046>

among the people
<05971>

that follow
<0310>

Absalom
<053>_.

{overthrown: Heb. fallen}

And he also [that is] valiant
<01121> <02428>_,

whose heart
<03820>

[is] as the heart
<03820>

of a lion
<0738>_,

shall utterly
<04549> (8736)

melt
<04549> (8735)_:

for all Israel
<03478>

knoweth
<03045> (8802)

that thy father
<01>

[is] a mighty man
<01368>_,

and [they] which [be] with him [are] valiant
<02428>

men
<01121>_.

Therefore I counsel
<03289> (8804)

that all Israel
<03478>

be generally
<0622> (8736)

gathered
<0622> (8735)

unto thee, from Dan
<01835>

even to Beersheba
<0884>_,

as the sand
<02344>

that [is] by the sea
<03220>

for multitude
<07230>_;

and that thou go
<01980> (8802)

to battle
<07128>

in thine own person
<06440>_.

{that thou...: Heb. that thy face, or, presence go, etc}

So shall we come
<0935> (8804)

upon him in some
<0259>

place
<04725>

where he shall be found
<04672> (8738)_,

and we will light
<05168>

upon him as the dew
<02919>

falleth
<05307> (8799)

on the ground
<0127>_:

and of him and of all the men
<0582>

that [are] with him there shall not be left
<03498> (8738)

so much as
<01571>

one
<0259>_.

Moreover, if
<0518>

he be gotten
<0622> (8735)

into a city
<05892>_,

then shall all Israel
<03478>

bring
<05375> (8689)

ropes
<02256>

to that city
<05892>_,

and we will draw
<05498> (8804)

it into the river
<05158>_,

until there be not one
<01571>

small stone
<06872>

found
<04672> (8738)

there.

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>_,

[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>_.
