21 Now it came to pass, after they had departed, that they came up out of the well and went and told King David, and said to David, a“Arise and cross over the water quickly. For thus has Ahithophel advised against you.”
22 So David and all the people who were with him arose and crossed over the Jordan. By morning light not one of them was left who had not gone over the Jordan.
23 Now when Ahithophel saw that his advice was not followed, he saddled a donkey, and arose and went home to ahis house, to his city. Then he1 put his bhousehold in order, and changed himself, and died; and he was buried in his father’s tomb.
24 Then David went to aMahanaim. And Absalom crossed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
25 And Absalom made aAmasa captain of the army instead of Joab. This Amasa was the son of a man whose name was1 Jithra, an Israelite, who had gone in to bAbigail the daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, Joab’s mother.
