2 Samuel 17:8

← 2 Samuel 17:7 2 Samuel 17:8 (KJV) 2 Samuel 17:9 →
And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given [is] not good at this time.
For, said Hushai, thou knowest thy father and his men, that they [be] mighty men, and they [be] chafed in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father [is] a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some [other] place: and it will come to pass, when some of them be overthrown at the first, that whosoever heareth it will say, There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom.
