And when Hushai°
was come°°
to°
Absalom,°
Absalom°
spake°°
unto°
him, saying,°°
Ahithophel°

manner:°
shall we do°°
[after]°
his saying?°
if°
not;°
speak°°
thou.° |

said°°
unto°
Absalom,°
The counsel°
that°
Ahithophel°

[is] not°
good°
at this°
time.° |
|
17:8
Hushai said moreover, Thou knowest thy father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are 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. |
|
17:8
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°

[is] a man°
of war,°
and will not°
lodge°°
with°
the people.° |
|
17:9
Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some [other] place: and it will come to pass, when some of them are fallen at the first, that whosoever heareth it will say, There is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom. |

Absalom.° |
|
17:10
And even he that is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, will utterly melt; for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they that are with him are valiant men. |
|
17:10
And he°
also°
[that is] valiant,°°
whose°
heart°
[is] as the heart°
of a lion,°
shall utterly°°
melt:°°
for°
all°
Israel°

[be] with°
him [are] valiant°
men.° |
|

Moreover, if he be gotten into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river, until there be not one small stone found there. |

And Absalom°
and all°
the men°
of Israel°
said,°°
The counsel°
