1 Kings 2:28-31
28When the newsH8052 reachedH935H5704 JoabH3097, who had conspiredH5186 withH310 AdonijahH138 butH310 notH3808 withH5186 AbsalomH53, he fledH5127 toH413 the tentH168 of the LORDH3068 and took holdH2388 of the hornsH7161 of the altarH4196.
29It was reportedH5046 to KingH4428 SolomonH8010H3588: “JoabH3097 has fledH5127 toH413 the tentH168 of the LORDH3068 and is nowH2009 besideH681 the altarH4196.”
So SolomonH8010 sentH7971 BenaiahH1141 sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, sayingH559, “GoH1980, strike him downH6293!”
30And BenaiahH1141 enteredH935H413 the tentH168 of the LORDH3068 and saidH559 to JoabH413, “The kingH3541H4428 saysH559, ‘Come outH3318!’”
But Joab repliedH559, “NoH3808, I will dieH4191 hereH6311.”
So BenaiahH1141 relayed the messageH1697H7725 to the kingH4428, sayingH559, “This is howH3541 JoabH3097 answered meH6030.”
31And the kingH4428 repliedH559, “DoH6213 just asH834 he saysH1696. Strike him downH6293 and bury himH6912, and so removeH5493 from meH5921 and fromH5921 the houseH1004 of my fatherH1 the innocentH2600 bloodH1818 thatH834 JoabH3097 shedH8210.
