2 Samuel 15:32-34

32 It happened as David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, that behold, Hushai the ^aArchite met him with his ^{▼▼Or tunic}coat torn, and ^{▼▼Lit earth}dust on his head. 33 And David said to him, “If you go over with me, then you will become ^da burden to me. 34 But if you return to the city and ^esay to Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king; even as I was your father’s servant in time past, so now I will also be your servant,’ then you can foil the advice of Ahithophel for me.
