2 Samuel 16:21
Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Go in to your father’s concubines that he has left to keep the house. Then all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.”

2 Samuel 17:1
Moreover Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Let me now choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David tonight.

2 Samuel 17:2
I will come on him while he is weary and exhausted, and will make him afraid. All the people who are with him will flee. I will strike the king only,

2 Samuel 17:3
and I will bring back all the people to you. The man whom you seek is as if all returned. All the people shall be in peace.”

2 Samuel 17:14
Absalom and all the men of Israel said, “The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel.” For Yahweh had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that Yahweh might bring evil on Absalom.

When Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey, arose, and went home to his city, set his house in order, and hanged himself; and he died, and was buried in the tomb of his father.

1 Corinthians 3:19
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.”

But it was you, a man like me, my companion, and my familiar friend.

1 Corinthians 1:20
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
