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.
"For Hushai said, your father and his men are strong and very angry, like a mother bear protecting her cubs. Your father is a skilled fighter and won't stay in one place for long."
