2 Samuel 16:21-23

21AhithophelH302 saidH559 to AbsalomH53, “1HaveH935 relationsH935 withH935 your father’sH1 concubinesH6370, whomH834 he has leftH5117 behindH5117 to takeH8104 careH8104 of the houseH1004; then allH3605 IsraelH3478 will hearH8085 that you have madeH887 yourself repulsiveH887 to your fatherH1. The handsH3027 of allH3605 whoH834 are with you will also be strengthenedH2388.”

22So they pitchedH5186 a tentH168 for AbsalomH53 on the roofH1406, 2and AbsalomH53 hadH935 relationsH935 withH935 his father’sH1 concubinesH6370 3in the sightH5869 of allH3605 IsraelH3478.

23Now 4the adviceH6098 of AhithophelH302, whichH834 he 5gaveH3289 in thoseH1992 daysH3117, was taken as thoughH3512 one inquiredH7592 of the wordH1697 of GodH430; 6soH3651 was allH3605 the adviceH6098 of AhithophelH302 regarded by bothH1571 DavidH1732 and AbsalomH53.
