2 Samuel 15:32-34
Evangelical Heritage Version
2 Samuel 15:32-34
Evangelical Heritage Version
32 David arrived at the summit, where he worshipped God.[a]
Hushai the Arkite was there to meet him. His robe was torn, and he had dirt on his head. 33 David said to him, “If you cross over with me, you will become a burden to me. 34 But if you return to the city and you say to Absalom, ‘Let me be your servant, O King. In the past I was a servant of your father. Now I will be your servant,’ then you can defeat the advice of Ahithophel for me.

32 When David arrived at the summit, where people used to worship God, Hushai(A) the Arkite(B) was there to meet him, his robe torn and dust(C) on his head. 33 David said to him, “If you go with me, you will be a burden(D) to me. 34 But if you return to the city and say to Absalom, ‘Your Majesty, I will be your servant; I was your father’s servant in the past, but now I will be your servant,’(E) then you can help me by frustrating(F) Ahithophel’s advice.
