2 Samuel 17:8

Context
17:8 Hushai went on to say, “You know your father and his men – they are soldiers and are as dangerous as a bear out in the wild that has been robbed of her cubs. 1  Your father is an experienced soldier; he will not stay overnight with the army.

2 Samuel 21:10

Context

21:10 Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it out for herself on a rock. From the beginning of the harvest until the rain fell on them, 2  she did not allow the birds of the air to feed 3  on them by day, nor the wild animals 4  by night.

3 tn Heb “rest.”

4 tn Heb “the beasts of the field.”
