But if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant hitherto, so will I now also be thy servant: then mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of Ahithophel.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 34 is found in chapter 15 of 2 Samuel. David learns that Ahithophel is among the conspirators and asks the Lord to turn his counsel into foolishness. Hushai appears, and David sends him back to Jerusalem to frustrate Ahithophel’s advice from within. The strategy shows David combining prayer with prudent action. He does not passively wait for a miracle; he uses the available resources while recognizing that success ultimately depends on God.
