2 Samuel 16:15-22

15Now Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.

16And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, Long live the king! Long live the king!

17And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this thy kindness to thy friend? why didst thou not go with thy friend?

18And Hushai said to Absalom, No; but whom Jehovah, and this people, and all the men of Israel choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.

19And again, whom should I serve? should it not be in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will I be in thy presence.

20And Absalom said to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.

21And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to thy father's concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art become odious with thy father; and the hands of all that are with thee shall be strong.

22So they spread a tent for Absalom upon the roof; and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
