2 Samuel 16:19-21
New International Reader's Version
19 After all, who else should I serve? Shouldn’t I serve the king’s son? I will serve you, just as I served your father.”
20 Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give us your advice. What should we do?”
21 Ahithophel answered, “Your father left some concubines behind to take care of the palace. Go and sleep with them. Then all the Israelites will hear about it. They will hear that you have made your father hate you. Everyone with you will be encouraged to give you more support.”
