2 Samuel 17:22–29

²²So David and all the people who were with him set out, and they crossed over the Jordan until morning light until there was no one^p missing who had not crossed over the Jordan. ²³When Ahithophel saw that his advice was not followed, he saddled the donkey, and he set out and went up to his house in his city. After he set his house in order,^q he hanged himself, and he died and was buried in the tomb of his ancestors.^r

²⁴Now David had come to Mahanaim, and Absalom had crossed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him. ²⁵Absalom had appointed Amasa in place of Joab over the army. Now Amasa was the son of a man whose name was Ithra the Israelite, who had married^s Abigail the daughter of Nahash the sister of Zeruiah, the mother of Joab. ²⁶Israel and Absalom camped in the land of Gilead. ²⁷Just as David had arrived in Mahanaim, Shobi the son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites^t and Makir the son of Ammiel from Lo Debar and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim ²⁸brought beds and basins and objects of pottery, as well as wheat, barley, flour, roasted grain, beans, lentils, ²⁹honey, curds, sheep, cheese, and cattle for David and for the people who were with him to eat. For they had thought, “The troops are hungry and weary and thirsty in the wilderness.”
