32 When David came to the summit where he used to worship God, Hushai the Archite(B) was there to meet him with his robe torn and dust on his head.
33 David said to him, “If you go away with me, you’ll be a burden to me,
34 but if you return to the city and tell Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, my king! Previously, I was your father’s servant, but now I will be your servant,’ then you can counteract Ahithophel’s counsel for me.
