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.

Hushai said further, You have knowledge of your father and his men, that they are men of war, and that their feelings are bitter, like those of a bear in the field whose young ones have been taken from her: and your father is a man of war, and will not take his night's rest with the people;

Και ειπεν ο Χουσαι, συ εξευρεις τον πατερα σου και τους ανδρας αυτου, οτι ειναι δυνατοι και καταπικροι την ψυχην, ως αρκτος στερηθεισα των τεκνων αυτης εν τη πεδιαδι και ο πατηρ σου ειναι ανηρ πολεμιστης και δεν θελει μεινει την νυκτα μετα του λαου·

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 of her whelps in the field: and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
