2 Samuel 15:13

David Flees From Jerusalem

¹² Absalom also sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, to come from his home town of Giloh while Absalom was presenting the sacrificial offerings. And so the conspiracy widened, because the common people increasingly sided with Absalom. ¹³ Then a messenger arrived to inform David, "The loyalties of the men of Israel have shifted to Absalom." ¹⁴ So David told all of his staff who were with him in Jerusalem, "Let's get up and get out of here! Otherwise, none of us will escape from Absalom. Hurry, or he'll overtake us quickly, bring disaster on all of us, and execute the inhabitants of the city!"
