2 Samuel 3:31-39
31And DavidH1732 saidH559 to JoabH3097, and to all the peopleH5971 that were with him, Rend your garmentsH899, and girdH2296 yourselvesH2296 with sackclothH8242, and mournH5594 before AbnerH74. And kingH4428 DavidH1732 followed the bier. 32And they buriedH6912 AbnerH74 in HebronH2275; and the kingH4428 liftedH5375 up his voiceH6963 and weptH1058 at the graveH6913 of AbnerH74; and all the peopleH5971 weptH1058. 33And the kingH4428 lamented over AbnerH74, and saidH559, Should AbnerH74 dieH4191 as a foolH5036 dieth? 34Thy handsH3027 were not boundH631, Nor thy feetH7272 put into fettersH5178; As a man falleth before wicked men, Fellest thou! And all the peopleH5971 weptH1058 again over him. 35And all the peopleH5971 cameH935 to cause DavidH1732 to eatH1262 breadH3899 while it was yetH5750 dayH3117; but DavidH1732 sworeH7650, sayingH559, So do 1GodH430 to me, and more also, if I tasteH2938 breadH3899 or aught else till the sunH8121 be down! 36And all the peopleH5971 remarked it, and it pleased them; as whatever the kingH4428 did pleased all the peopleH5971. 37And all the peopleH5971 and all IsraelH3478 understood that dayH3117 that it wasH1961 not of the kingH4428 to putH4191 AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369 to deathH4191. 38And the kingH4428 saidH559 to his servantsH5650, KnowH3045 ye not that there is a princeH8269 and a greatH1419 man fallenH5307 this dayH3117 in IsraelH3478? 39And I am this dayH3117 weakH7390, though anointedH4886 kingH4428; and these menH376, the sonsH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, are too hardH7186 for me: Jehovah rewardH7999 the doer of evilH7451 according to his wickednessH7451!
