2 Samuel 17:7-14

7So HushaiH2365 saidH559 to AbsalomH53, “1ThisH2088 timeH6471 the adviceH6098 that AhithophelH302 has 2givenH3289 is not goodH2896.” 8Then HushaiH2365 saidH559, “You yourselfH859 knowH3045 your fatherH1 and his menH376, that they are warriorsH1368 and they are 3fierceH4751H5315, 4like a bearH1677 deprivedH7909 ofH7909 her cubsH7909 in the fieldH7704. And your fatherH1 is an 5expertH376 in warfareH4421, and he will not spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885 with the peopleH5971. 9BeholdH2009, he has nowH6258 hiddenH2244 himselfH1931 in oneH259 of the ravinesH6354, orH176 in anotherH259 placeH4725; and it will be that when he fallsH5307 on them at the firstH8462 attack, whoever hearsH8085 it will sayH559, ‘There has beenH1961 a slaughterH4046 among the peopleH5971 whoH834 followH310 AbsalomH53!’ 10And evenH1571 the oneH1121 who is valiantH1121H2428, whoseH834 heartH3820 is like the heartH3820 of a lionH743, 6will completelyH4549 despairH4549; for allH3605 IsraelH3478 knowsH3045 that your fatherH1 is a mightyH1368 manH1121, and those whoH834 are with him are valiantH2428 menH1121. 11But I adviseH3289 that allH3605 IsraelH3478 be fullyH622 gatheredH622 to you, 7from DanH1835 even to BeershebaH884, 8like the sandH2344 that is by the seaH3220 in abundanceH7230; and that 9you personallyH6440 goH1980 into battleH7128. 12Then we will comeH935 to him in oneH259 of the placesH4725 whereH834H8033 he can be foundH4672, and we will 10fallH5117 on him 11justH3512 asH3512 the dewH2919 fallsH5307 on the groundH127; and of him and of allH3605 the menH376 whoH834 are with him, not evenH1571 oneH259 will be leftH3498. 13And ifH518 he withdrawsH622 into a cityH5892, then allH3605 IsraelH3478 shall bringH5375 ropesH2256 to that cityH5892, and we will 12dragH5498 it into the 13valleyH5158 untilH5704H834 not evenH1571 a pebbleH6872 is foundH4672 thereH8033.” 14Then AbsalomH53 and allH3605 the menH376 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, “The adviceH6098 of HushaiH2365 the ArchiteH757 is betterH2896 thanH4480 the adviceH6098 of AhithophelH302.” For 14the LordH3068 had ordainedH6680 to foilH6565 the goodH2896 adviceH6098 of AhithophelH302, in orderH5668 for the LordH3068 to bringH935 disasterH7463 on AbsalomH53.
