1 And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, 'Let me choose, I pray thee, twelve thousand men, and I arise and pursue after David to-night, 2 and come upon him, and he weary and feeble-handed, and I have caused him to tremble, and all the people have fled who are with him, and I have smitten the king by himself, 3 and I bring back all the people unto thee -- as the turning back of the whole is the man whom thou art seeking -- all the people are peace. 4 And the thing is right in the eyes of Absalom, and in the eyes of all the elders of Israel. 2 Samuel 17:1-4, Young's Literal Translation.
