Answer:

Antinous is about to attack the beggar Odysseus.

Explanation:

This statement is said by Antinous, one of the suitors who wants Penelope's hand in marriage. He is at Odysseus' house, while Odysseus is disguised as a beggar. Antinous is a mean-spirited, rude person and he tries to attack the beggar, which is what motivates him to say these words.
