2 Samuel 17:21-29

21It came about after they had departed that they came up out of the well and went and told King David; and they said to David, “1Arise and cross over the water quickly for thus Ahithophel has counseled against you.” 22Then David and all the people who were with him arose and crossed the Jordan; and by 2dawn not even one remained who had not crossed the Jordan.

23Now when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not 3followed, he 4saddled his donkey and arose and went to his home, to 5his city, and 67set his house in order, and 8strangled himself; thus he died and was buried in the grave of his father.

24Then David came to 9Mahanaim. And Absalom crossed the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him. 25Absalom set 10Amasa over the army in place of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man whose name was 11Ithra the Israelite, who went in to Abigail the daughter of 12Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, Joab’s mother. 26And Israel and Absalom camped in the land of Gilead.

27Now when David had come to Mahanaim, Shobi 13the son of Nahash from 14Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, 15Machir the son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and 16Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim, 28brought 17beds, basins, pottery, wheat, barley, flour, parched grain, beans, lentils, parched seeds, 29honey, curds, sheep, and cheese of the herd, for David and for the people who were with him, 18to eat; for they said, “The people are hungry and weary and thirsty in the wilderness.”
