2 Samuel 17:6

2 Samuel 17:6

And when Hushai was come to Absalom
Into the council chamber, very probably:

Absalom spake unto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after this
manner;
and then related the counsel he had given as before:

shall we do [after] his saying?
is it right to proceed on this scheme, and carry it into execution?

if not, speak thou;
thy mind freely, without any reserve, or fear of giving any offence.
