"And [one] toldª° David,ª saying,ª° Ahithophelª [is] among the conspiratorsª° with¹ Absalom.ª And Davidª said,ª° O LORD,ª I pray thee,¹ turn¹ the counselª of Ahithophelª into foolishness.ª°" {2Sm 15:31} + "And Absalomª and all¹ the menª of Israelª said,ª° The counselª of Hushaiª the Architeª [is] betterª than the counselª¹ of Ahithophel.ª For the LORDª had appointedª° to defeatª°¹ the goodª counselª of Ahithophel,ª to the intentª that the LORDª might bringª° evilª upon¹ Absalom.ª" {2Sm 17:14} + "And when Ahithophelª sawª° that¹ his counselª was not¹ followed,ª° he saddledª° [his]¹ ass,ª and arose,ª° and gat¹ him home²° to¹ his house,ª to¹ his city,ª and put¹¹ his householdª in order,²° and hanged²° himself,¹ and died,ª° and was buriedª° in the sepulchreª of his father.ª" {2Sm 17:23} + "Whereª [are] they? whereª [are] thy wiseª [men]? and let them tellª° thee now,¹ and let them knowª° what¹ the LORDª of hostsª hath purposedª° upon¹ Egypt.ª ...
