2 Samuel 17:1-4

2 Samuel 17:1-4

[1] Moreover Ahithophel  said  unto Absalom,  Let me now choose out  twelve  thousand  men,  and I will arise  and pursue  after  David  this night:  [2] And I will come  upon him while he is weary  and weak  handed,  and will make him afraid:  and all the people  that are with him shall flee;  and I will smite  the king  [3] And I will bring back  all the people  unto thee: the man  whom thou seekest  is as if all returned:  so all the people  shall be in peace.  [4] And the saying  pleased  Absalom  well,  and all the elders  of Israel.
