2 Samuel 17:7-10
7And HushaiH2365 saidH559 to AbsalomH53, The counselH6098 that AhithophelH302 has given this timeH6471 is not goodH2896.
8And HushaiH2365 saidH559, Thou knowest thy fatherH1 and his menH376, that they are mightyH1368 menH376, and they are of exasperated spirit, 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 some such placeH4725; and it will come to pass, when some of them fallH5307 at the first, whoever heareth it will sayH559, There has beenH1961 slaughterH4046 among the peopleH5971 that follow AbsalomH53,
10and even the valiant manH1368 whose heartH3820 is as the heartH3820 of a lionH738 shall utterly meltH4549; for all IsraelH3478 knowsH3045 that thy fatherH1 is a mightyH1368 manH1368, and they that are with him are valiant menH1368.
