At last he stopped and pulled the arrows out of his side and gave them to the man, saying, "It is of no use for you to shoot at me, for you can not kill me. Come to my house and let us live together." The hunter thought to himself, "He may kill me"; but the bear read his thoughts and said, "No, I won't hurt you." The man thought again, "How can I get anything to eat?" but the bear knew his thoughts, and said, "There shall be plenty." So the hunter went with the bear.
They went on together (они шли вместе; to go on — идти дальше, продолжать идти) until they came to a hole in the side of the mountain (пока не пришли к пещере/берлоге в склоне горы; side — край, сторона), and the bear said (и медведь сказал), "This is not where I live (это не /то место/, где я живу), but there is going to be a council here (но здесь будет проходить совет) and we will see what they do (и мы посмотрим, что они сделают)."

They sat down in a corner (они уселись в углу), but soon the bears scented the hunter (но вскоре медведи учуяли охотника) and began to ask (и начали спрашивать), "What is it (что это) that smells bad (что так воняет: «дурно пахнет»)?" The chief said (вождь сказал), "Don't talk so (не говорите так); it is only a stranger come to see us (это просто чужак пришел увидеть нас = к нам в гости;
