2 Samuel 15:29-35

29ZadokH6659 therefore and AbiatharH54 carried the arkH727 of GodH430 again to JerusalemH3389: and they abode there.

30And DavidH1732 wentH1980 up by the ascentH4608 of themount ofOlivesH2132, and weptH1058 as he wentH1980 up; and he had his headH7218 coveredH2645, and wentH1980 barefootH3182: and all the peopleH5971 that were with him coveredH2645 every manH376 his headH7218, and they wentH1980 up, weepingH1058 as they wentH1980 up. 31And one toldH5046 DavidH1732, sayingH559, AhithophelH302 is among the conspirators with AbsalomH53. And DavidH1732 saidH559, O Jehovah, I pray thee, turn the counselH6098 of AhithophelH302 into foolishness. 32And it cameH935 to pass, that, when DavidH1732 wasH1961 comeH935 to the topH7218 of the ascent, whereH834 GodH430 wasH1961 worshipped, behold, HushaiH2365 the Archite cameH935 to meet him with his coat rent, and earthH127 upon his headH7218. 33And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, If thou passest on with me, then thou wilt beH1961 a burdenH4853 unto me: 34but if thou returnH7725 to the cityH5892, and sayH559 unto AbsalomH53, I will beH1961 thy servantH5650, O kingH4428; as I have beenH1961 thy father’sH1 servantH5650 in time past, so will I nowH6258 beH1961 thy servantH5650; thenH227 wilt thou defeat for me the counselH6098 of AhithophelH302. 35And hast thou not there with thee ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548? therefore it shall beH1961, that what thingH1697 soever thou shalt hearH8085 out of the king’sH4428 houseH1004, thou shalt tellH5046 it to ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548.
