2 Samuel 15:32When David came to the summit, where he used to worship God, Hushai the Archite was there to meet him with his robe torn and dust on his head.2 Samuel 15:33David said to him, “If you go on with me, you will be a burden to me.2 Samuel 15:34But you can thwart the counsel of Ahithophel for me if you return to the city and say to Absalom: ‘I will be your servant, my king; in the past I was your father’s servant, but now I will be your servant.’2 Samuel 15:35Will not Zadok and Abiathar the priests be there with you? Report to them everything you hear from the king’s palace.2 Samuel 15:36Indeed, their two sons, Ahimaaz son of Zadok and Jonathan son of Abiathar, are there with them. Send them to me with everything you hear.”2 Samuel 15:37So David’s friend Hushai arrived in Jerusalem just as Absalom was entering the city.2 Samuel 16:16And David’s friend Hushai the Archite went to Absalom and said to him, “Long live the king! Long live the king!”2 Samuel 16:17“Is this the loyalty you show your friend?” Absalom replied. “Why did you not go with your friend?”2 Samuel 16:18“Not at all,” Hushai answered. “For the one chosen by the LORD, by this people, and by all the men of Israel—his I will be, and with him I will remain.2 Samuel 16:19Furthermore, whom should I serve if not his son? As I served in your father’s presence, so also I will serve in yours.”1 Chronicles 27:33Ahithophel was the king’s counselor. Hushai the Archite was the king’s friend.
