NASB
""I will come upon him while he is weary and exhausted and terrify him, so that all the people who are with him will flee. Then I will strike down the king alone,"
— 2 Samuel 17:2, NASB
“And I will come upon him while he is weary and weak handed, and will make him afraid: and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only:”
“and I will come upon him while he is weary and weak-handed, and will make him afraid; and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only; ”
“I will come on him while he is weary and exhausted, and will make him afraid. All the people who are with him shall flee. I will strike the king only;”
“When I catch up with him he will be exhausted and worn out. I will rout him, and the entire army that is with him will flee. I will kill only the king”
“And coming upon him (for he is now weary, and weak handed) I will defeat him: and when all the people is put to flight that is with him, I will kill the king who will be left alone.”
“And I will come up with him when he is tired and feeble, and make him full of fear: and all the people with him will go in flight; and I will make an attack on the king only:”
“And I will come upon him while he is weary and weak handed, and will make him afraid: and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only:”
Furthermore, Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Please let me choose 12,men that I may arise and pursue David tonight.
"I will come upon him while he is weary and exhausted and terrify him, so that all the people who are with him will flee. Then I will strike down the king alone,
and I will bring back all the people to you. The return of everyone depends on the man you seek; then all the people will be at peace."
So the plan pleased Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
Then Absalom said, "Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear what he has to say."
