2 Samuel 16:20-22

20Then AbsalomH53 saidH559 toH413 AhithophelH302, “Give meH3051 counselH6098. WhatH4100 should we doH6213?”

21AhithophelH302 repliedH559, “Sleep withH935H413 your father’sH1 concubinesH6370, whomH834 he has leftH5117 to take care ofH8104 the palaceH1004. When allH3605 IsraelH3478 hearsH8085 thatH3588 you have become a stenchH887 toH854 your fatherH1, then the handsH3027 of allH3605 who areH834 with youH854 will be strengthenedH2388.”

22So they pitchedH5186 a tentH168 for AbsalomH53 onH5921 the roofH1406, and heH53 slept withH935H413 his father’sH1 concubinesH6370 in the sightH5869 of allH3605 IsraelH3478.
