Ahithophel gives Absalom his counsel, and Absalom goes in to his father’s concubines
아히도벨이 압살롬에게 모략을 베풀고 압살롬이 그 부친의 후궁들로 더불어 동침함
2 Samuel 16:20–23: then Absalom says to Ahithophel, “Give your counsel what we shall do.” Ahithophel says 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.” So they spread a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom goes in to his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel. The text says, “The counsel of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man inquired at the inner sanctuary of God. All the counsel of Ahithophel was like this both with David and with Absalom.” The Korean Revised Version likens it to 하나님께 물어 받은 말씀, a word received by inquiring of God.
