2 Samuel 17:23-25

Revised Geneva Translation

²³ Now when Ahithophel saw that his counsel had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and arose. And he went home to his city and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in his father’s grave.

²⁴ Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.

²⁵ And Absalom made Amasa captain of the army instead of Joab. This Amasa was the son of a man named Jithra, an Israelite, who went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah, Joab’s mother.
