2Sa 15:32 While David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn and dirt on his head.
2Sa 15:37 So Hushai, David’s friend, came into the city, just as Absalom was entering Jerusalem.
2Sa 16:16 And when Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, came to Absalom, Hushai said to Absalom, “Long live the king! Long live the king!”
2Sa 16:17 And Absalom said to Hushai, “Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your friend?”
2Sa 16:18 And Hushai said to Absalom, “No, for whom the Lord and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, his I will be, and with him I will remain.
2Sa 17:5 Then Absalom said, “Call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear what he has to say.”
2Sa 17:6 And when Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom said to him, “Thus has Ahithophel spoken; shall we do as he says? If not, you speak.”
2Sa 17:7 Then Hushai said to Absalom, “This time the counsel that Ahithophel has given is not good.”
2Sa 17:8 Hushai said, “You know that your father and his men are mighty men, and that they are enraged, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. Besides, your father is expert in war; he will not spend the night with the people.
2Sa 17:14 And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, “The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel.” For the Lord had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, so that the Lord might bring harm upon Absalom.
2Sa 17:15 Then Hushai said to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, “Thus and so did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel, and thus and so have I counseled.
1Ki 4:16 Baana the son of Hushai, in Asher and Bealoth;
1Ch 27:33 Ahithophel was the king’s counselor, and Hushai the Archite was the king’s friend.
