1 Then Ahithophel said to Absalom, Let me take out twelve thousand men and this very night I will go after David:
2 And I will come up with him when he is tired and feeble, and make him full of fear: and all the people with him will go in flight; and I will make an attack on the king only:
3 And I will make all the people come back to you as a bride comes back to her husband: it is the life of only one man you are going after; so all the people will be at peace.
4 And the saying was pleasing to Absalom and to the responsible men of Israel.
