2 Samuel 17:6 CPDV

⁴  And this word pleased Absalom and all those greater by birth of Israel.

⁵  But Absalom said, 'Summon Hushai the Archite, and let us hear what he also may say.'

⁶  And when Hushai had gone to Absalom, Absalom said to him: 'Ahithophel has spoken a word in this manner. Should we do it or not? What counsel do you give?'

⁷  And Hushai said to Absalom, 'The counsel that Ahithophel has given at this time is not good.'

⁸  And again Hushai declared, 'You know your father, and the men who are with him, to be very strong and bitter in soul, comparable to a bear raging in the forest when her young have been taken away. Moreover, your father is a man of war, and so he will not live among the people.
