34 But if you return to the city, and say to Absalom, a‘I will be your servant, O king; as I was your father’s servant previously, so I will now also be your servant,’ then you may defeat the counsel of Ahithophel for me.
35 And do you not have Zadok and Abiathar the priests with you there? Therefore it will be that whatever you hear from the king’s house, you shall tell to aZadok and Abiathar the priests.
36 Indeed they have there awith them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok’s son, and Jonathan, Abiathar’s son; and by them you shall send me everything you hear.”
37 So Hushai, aDavid’s friend, went into the city. bAnd Absalom came into Jerusalem.
