28 See, aI will wait in the plains of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.”
29 Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem. And they remained there.
30 So David went up by the Ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he ahad his head covered and went bbarefoot. And all the people who were with him ccovered their heads and went up, dweeping as they went up.
31 Then someone told David, saying, a“Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” And David said, “O Lord, I pray, bturn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness!”
32 Now it happened when David had come to the top of the mountain, where he worshiped God—there was Hushai the aArchite coming to meet him bwith his robe torn and dust on his head.
