2 Samuel 17:7-10
7And HushaiH2365 saidH559 unto AbsalomH53, The counselH6098 that AhithophelH302 hath given this timeH6471 is not goodH2896. 8HushaiH2365 saidH559 moreover, Thou knowest thy fatherH1 and his menH376, that they are mightyH1368 menH376, and they are chafed in their minds, as a bearH1677 robbed of her whelps in the fieldH7704; and thy fatherH1 is a manH376 of warH4421, and will not lodge with the peopleH5971. 9Behold, he is hidH2244 nowH6258 in some pitH6354, or in some other placeH4725: and it will come to pass, when some of them are fallenH5307 at the first, that whosoever heareth it will sayH559, There is a slaughterH4046 among the peopleH5971 that follow AbsalomH53. 10And even he that is valiant, whose heartH3820 is as the heartH3820 of a lionH738, will utterly meltH4549; for all IsraelH3478 knoweth that thy fatherH1 is a mightyH1368 manH1368, and they that are with him are valiant menH1368.
