2 Samuel 15:24-37

24And lo ZadokH6659 also, and all the LevitesH3881 were with him, bearingH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430: and they set downH3332 the arkH727 of GodH430; and AbiatharH54 went upH5927, until all the peopleH5971 had doneH8552 passingH5674 out of the cityH5892. 25And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto ZadokH6659, Carry backH7725 the arkH727 of GodH430 into the cityH5892: if I shall findH4672 favourH2580 in the eyesH5869 of YhwhH3068, he will bring me againH7725, and shewH7200 me both it, and his habitationH5116: 26But if he thus sayH559, I have no delightH2654 in thee; behold, here am I, let him doH6213 to me as seemethH5869 goodH2896 unto him. 27The kingH4428 saidH559 also unto ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, Art not thou a seerH7200? returnH7725 into the cityH5892 in peaceH7965, and your twoH8147 sonsH1121 with you, AhimaazH290 thy sonH1121, and JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of AbiatharH54. 28SeeH7200, I will tarryH4102 in the plainH5679H6160 of the wildernessH4057, until there comeH935 wordH1697 from you to certifyH5046 me. 29ZadokH6659 therefore and AbiatharH54 carriedH7725 the arkH727 of GodH430 againH7725 to JerusalemH3389: and they tarriedH3427 there.

30And DavidH1732 went upH5927 by the ascentH4608 of mount OlivetH2132, and weptH1058 as he went upH5927, and had his headH7218 coveredH2645, and he wentH1980 barefootH3182: and all the peopleH5971 that was with him coveredH2645 every manH376 his headH7218, and they went upH5927, weepingH1058 as they went upH5927.1

31And one toldH5046 DavidH1732, sayingH559, AhithophelH302 is among the conspiratorsH7194 with AbsalomH53. And DavidH1732 saidH559, O YhwhH3068, I pray thee, turn the counselH6098 of AhithophelH302 into foolishnessH5528.

32And it came to pass, that when DavidH1732 was comeH935 to the topH7218 of the mount, where he worshippedH7812 GodH430, behold, HushaiH2365 the ArchiteH757 came to meetH7125 him with his coatH3801 rentH7167, and earthH127 upon his headH7218: 33Unto whom DavidH1732 saidH559, If thou passest onH5674 with me, then thou shalt be a burdenH4853 unto me: 34But if thou returnH7725 to the cityH5892, and sayH559 unto AbsalomH53, I will be thy servantH5650, O kingH4428; as I have been thy father’sH1 servantH5650 hithertoH227, so will I now also be thy servantH5650: then mayest thou for me defeatH6565 the counselH6098 of AhithophelH302. 35And hast thou not there with thee ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548? therefore it shall be, that what thingH1697 soever thou shalt hearH8085 out of the king’sH4428 houseH1004, thou shalt tellH5046 it to ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548. 36Behold, they have there with them their twoH8147 sonsH1121, AhimaazH290 Zadok’sH6659 son, and JonathanH3083 Abiathar’sH54 son; and by themH3027 ye shall sendH7971 unto me every thingH1697 that ye can hearH8085. 37So HushaiH2365 David’sH1732 friendH7463 cameH935 into the cityH5892, and AbsalomH53 cameH935 into JerusalemH3389.
