2 Samuel 17:6 Context
4And the saying pleased Absalom well, and all the Elders of Israel. 5Then said Absalom, Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let vs heare likewise what he saith. 6And when Hushai was come to Absalom, Absalom spake vnto him, saying, Ahithophel hath spoken after this maner: shall we doe after his saying? if not, speake thou. 7And Hushai said vnto Absalom, The counsell that Ahithophel hath giuen, is not good at this time. 8For, (said Hushai,) thou knowest thy father and his men, that they bee mightie men, and they be chafed in their minds, as a beare robbed of her whelps in the field: and thy father is a man of warre, and will not lodge with the people.
