2 Samuel 15:14-16

English Standard Version

¹⁴ Then David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise, and let us ^(A)flee, or else there will be no escape for us from Absalom. Go quickly, lest he overtake us quickly and bring down ruin on us and strike the city with the edge of the sword.” ¹⁵ And the king's servants said to the king, “Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king decides.” ¹⁶ So the king went out, and all his household after him. And the king left ^(B)ten concubines to keep the house.
