2 Samuel 17:7 In-Context

5 Disse, porém, Absalão: Chamai agora a Husai, o arquita, e ouçamos também o que ele diz.
6 Quando Husai chegou a Absalão, este lhe disse: Desta maneira falou Aitofel; faremos conforme a sua palavra? Se não, fala tu.
7 Então disse Husai a Absalão: O conselho que Aitofel deu esta vez não é bom.
8 Acrescentou Husai: Tu bem sabes que teu pai e os seus homens são valentes, e que estão com o espírito amargurado, como a ursa no campo, roubada dos seus cachorros; além disso teu pai é homem de guerra, e não passará a noite com o povo.
9 Eis que agora está ele escondido nalguma cova, ou em qualquer outro lugar; e será que, caindo alguns no primeiro ataque, todo o que o ouvir dirá: Houve morticínio entre o povo que segue a Absalão.
