Then, Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Please let me choose 12,000 men, and I will set out and pursue David tonight.
Nevertheless, Absalom said, “Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear what he has to say.”
Then Hushai said to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, “This is the advice that Ahithophel gave to Absalom and the elders of Israel, and this is the advice that I have given.
Now when Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and set out and went to his home, to his city. Then he put his household in order, and hanged himself. So he died and was buried in the tomb of his father.
Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom crossed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
When David came to Mahanaim, Shobi the son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, and Machir the son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim
