1 Kings 2:31-33

31And the kingH4428 saidH559 to him, Do as he has saidH559, and fallH6293 upon him, and buryH6912 him; and take awayH5493 the innocent bloodH1818, which JoabH3097 shedH8210, from me and from the houseH1004 of my fatherH1.

32And Jehovah shall requite the bloodH1818 which he shed upon his own headH7218, because he fellH6293 upon twoH8147 menH376 moreH4480 righteousH6662 and betterH2896 than he, and slewH2026 them with the swordH2719, without my fatherH1 David's knowledge: AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369, captain of the hostH6635 of IsraelH3478, and AmasaH6021 the sonH1121 of JetherH3500, captain of the hostH6635 of JudahH3063.

33And their bloodH1818 shall beH1961 requited upon the headH7218 of JoabH3097, and upon the headH7218 of his seedH2233 for everH5769; but upon DavidH1732, and upon his seedH2233, and upon his houseH1004, and upon his throneH3678, shall there beH1961 peaceH7965 for everH5769 from Jehovah.
