23 When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been acted on, he saddled a donkey and went to his house in his hometown.+ After he gave instructions to his household,+ he hanged* himself.+ So he died and was buried in the burial place of his forefathers.
23 Loko ku ri Ahitofele, a vona leswaku kungu ra yena a ri landzeriwanga,+ kutani a bohela mbhongolo a suka a ya endlwini yakwe emutini wa rikwavo.+ Hiloko a nyika vandyangu wakwe swileriso+ kutani a tisunga,+ a fa.+ U lahliwe+ exilahlweni xa vatata wakwe.
