2 Samuel 17:5-10 The Message (MSG)

But then Absalom said, “Call in Hushai the Arkite—let’s hear what he has to say.” So Hushai came and Absalom put it to him, “This is what Ahithophel advised. Should we do it? What do you say?” Hushai said, “The counsel that Ahithophel has given in this instance is not good. You know your father and his men, brave and bitterly angry—like a bear robbed of her cubs. And your father is an experienced fighter; you can be sure he won’t be caught napping at a time like this. Even while we’re talking, he’s probably holed up in some cave or other. If he jumps your men from ambush, word will soon get back, ‘A slaughter of Absalom’s army!’ Even if your men are valiant with hearts of lions, they’ll fall apart at such news, for everyone in Israel knows the kind of fighting stuff your father’s made of, and also the men with him.
