Then all the people will be at peace. 4 This plan seemed good in the eyes of Absalom and all the elders of Israel. 5 Then Absalom said, 'Summon Hushai the Archite as well, so we may hear what he has to say.' 6 When Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom said to him, 'This is what Ahithophel has advised. Should we follow his advice? If not, speak up.' 7 Hushai said to Absalom, 'The advice Ahithophel has given this time is not good.' 8 Hushai continued, 'You know your father and his men; they are mighty warriors and bitter in spirit, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. Your father is an experienced fighter, and he will not spend the night with the troops.' 9 'Even now, he is hiding in one of the caves or some other place. If he attacks first, anyone who hears about it will say, "There has been a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom."' 10 'Then even the bravest, whose courage is like that of a lion, will utterly melt away.

Not even one of his men will survive.' 13 'If he retreats into a city, all Israel will bring ropes to that city, and we will pull it into the valley until not even a pebble remains.' 14 Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, 'The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than that of Ahithophel.'
