2 Samuel 16:18-20

21st Century King James Version

¹⁸ And Hushai said unto Absalom, “Nay; but whom the Lord and this people and all the men of Israel choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.

¹⁹ And again, whom should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in thy father’s presence, so will I be in thy presence.”

²⁰ Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, “Give counsel among you what we shall do.”
