2 Samuel 16:21-23

Modern English Version

²¹ Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Lie with your father’s concubines, whom he left to watch over the palace. When all Israel hears that you have made yourself abhorred by your father, then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.” ²² So they set up a tent for Absalom on the roof, and Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all of Israel.

²³ In those days, the advice that Ahithophel gave was as when one inquired a word from God. Such was all of the advice of Ahithophel, whether that which he gave to David or to Absalom.
