Counsel of Ahithophel and Hushai
15 But Absalom and all his people entered into Jerusalem, yea and Achitophel with him.
16 And when Chusai the Arachite David's friend was come to Absalom, he said to him: God save thee, o king, God save thee, o king.
17 To whom Absalom, is this, quoth he, thy kindness toward thy friend? Why wentest thou not with thy friend?
18 And Chusai answered Absalom: Not so: because I will be his, whom our Lord hath chosen, and all this people, and all Israel, and with him will tarry.
19 Yea that I may add this also, whom shall I serve? Not the king's son? As I have served thy father, so will I serve thee also.
