And the saying

Absalom
<053>
<053>
well

of Israel

{pleased...: Heb. was right in the eyes of, etc}<03478>_.
Absalom
<053>_,
<053>_,
now Hushai
<02365>
<02365>
the Archite
<0757>
<0757>
likewise what he saith
<06310>_.
{what...: Heb. what is in his mouth}<06310>_.
And when Hushai
<02365>
<02365>
to Absalom
<053>_,
<053>_,
Absalom
<053>
<053>
Ahithophel
<0302>
<0302>
after this manner
<01697>_:
<01697>_:
[after] his saying
<01697>_?
thou. {his saying: Heb. his word}<01697>_?
And Hushai
<02365>
<02365>
unto Absalom
<053>_,
<053>_,
The counsel
<06098>
<06098>
that Ahithophel
<0302>
<0302>
[is] not good
<02896>
<02896>
at this time
<06471>_.
{given: Heb. counselled}<06471>_.
Hushai
<02365>_,
<02365>_,
thy father
<01>
<01>
and his men
<0582>_,
<0582>_,
that they [be] mighty men
<01368>_,
<01368>_,
and they [be] chafed
<04751>
<04751>
in their minds
<05315>_,
<05315>_,
as a bear
<01677>
<01677>
robbed
<07909>
<07909>
of her whelps in the field
<07704>_:
<07704>_:
and thy father
<01>
<01>
[is] a man
<0376>
<0376>
of war
<04421>_,
<04421>_,
with the people
<05971>_.
{chafed...: Heb. bitter of soul}<05971>_.
now in some
<0259>
<0259>
pit
<06354>_,
<06354>_,
or in some
<0259>
<0259>
[other] place
<04725>_:
<04725>_:
at the first
<08462>_,
<08462>_,
There is a slaughter
<04046>
<04046>
among the people
<05971>
<05971>
that follow
<0310>
<0310>
Absalom
<053>_.
{overthrown: Heb. fallen}<053>_.
whose heart
<03820>
<03820>
[is] as the heart
<03820>
<03820>
of a lion
<0738>_,
<0738>_,
for all Israel
<03478>
<03478>
that thy father
<01>
<01>
[is] a mighty man
<01368>_,
<01368>_,
and [they] which [be] with him [are] valiant
<02428>
<02428>
men
<01121>_.
<01121>_.
that all Israel
<03478>
<03478>
unto thee, from Dan
<01835>
<01835>
even to Beersheba
<0884>_,
<0884>_,
as the sand
<02344>
<02344>
that [is] by the sea
<03220>
<03220>
for multitude
<07230>_;
<07230>_;
to battle
<07128>
<07128>
in thine own person
<06440>_.
{that thou...: Heb. that thy face, or, presence go, etc}<06440>_.
upon him in some
<0259>
<0259>
place
<04725>
<04725>
and we will light
<05168>
<05168>
upon him as the dew
<02919>
<02919>
on the ground
<0127>_:
<0127>_:
and of him and of all the men
<0582>
<0582>
so much as
<01571>
<01571>
one
<0259>_.
<0259>_.
Moreover, if
<0518>
<0518>
into a city
<05892>_,
<05892>_,
then shall all Israel
<03478>
<03478>
ropes
<02256>
<02256>
to that city
<05892>_,
<05892>_,
it into the river
<05158>_,
<05158>_,
until there be not one
<01571>
<01571>
small stone
<06872>
there.<06872>
And Absalom
<053>
<053>
and all the men
<0376>
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
The counsel
<06098>
<06098>
of Hushai
<02365>
<02365>
the Archite
<0757>
<0757>
[is] better
<02896>
<02896>
than the counsel
<06098>
<06098>
of Ahithophel
<0302>_.
<0302>_.
For the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
the good
<02896>
<02896>
counsel
<06098>
<06098>
of Ahithophel
<0302>_,
<0302>_,
to the intent
<05668>
<05668>
that the LORD

evil
<07451>
<07451>
upon Absalom
