2 Samuel 3:27-30

27And when AbnerH74 was returnedH7725 to HebronH2275, JoabH3097 took him asideH5186 into the midstH8432 of the gateH8179 to speakH1696 with him quietly, and smote him there in the body, so that he diedH4191, for the bloodH1818 of AsahelH6214 his brotherH251. 28And afterward, when DavidH1732 heardH8085 it, he saidH559, I and my kingdomH4467 are guiltless before Jehovah for everH5703 of the bloodH1818 of AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369: 29let it fallH5307 upon the headH7218 of JoabH3097, and upon all his father’sH1 houseH1004; and let there not fail from the houseH1004 of JoabH3097 one that hath an issue, or that is a leper, or that leaneth on a staff, or that falleth by the swordH2719, or that lacketh breadH3899. 30So JoabH3097 and AbishaiH52 his brotherH251 slewH2026 AbnerH74, because he had killedH2026 their brotherH251 AsahelH6214 at GibeonH1391 in the battleH4421.
