11And with Absalom have gone two hundred men, out of Jerusalem, invited ones, and they are going in their simplicity, and have not known anything;
12and Absalom sendeth Ahithophel the Gilonite, a counsellor of David, out of his city, out of Gilo, in his sacrificing sacrifices; and the conspiracy is strong, and the people are going and increasing with Absalom.
13And he who is declaring tidings cometh in unto David, saying, `The heart of the men of Israel hath been after Absalom.`
14And David saith to all his servants who [are] with him in Jerusalem, `Rise, and we flee, for we have no escape from the face of Absalom; haste to go, lest he hasten, and have overtaken us, and forced on us evil, and smitten the city by the mouth of the sword.`
15And the servants of the king say unto the king, `According to all that my lord the king chooseth -- lo, thy servants [do].`
16And the king goeth out, and all his household at his feet, and the king leaveth ten women -- concubines -- to keep the house.
17And the king goeth out, and all the people at his feet, and they stand still at the farthest off house.
