32 And it came to pass, that, when David was come to the top of the ascent, [a]where God was worshipped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head. 33 And David said unto him, If thou passest on with me, then thou wilt be a burden unto me: 34 but if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father’s servant in time past, so will I now be thy servant; then wilt thou defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.

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.
