2 Samuel 2:24-28
24But JoabH3097 and AbishaiH52 pursuedH7291 AbnerH74, and when the sunH8121 was goingH935 down, they cameH935 to the hillH1389 of AmmahH522, whichH834 is in frontH6440 of GiahH1520 by the wayH1870 of the wildernessH4057 of GibeonH1391.
25The sonsH1121 of BenjaminH1144 gatheredH6908 together behindH310 AbnerH74 and becameH1961 oneH259 bandH92, and they stoodH5975 on the topH7218 of a certainH259 hillH1389.
26Then AbnerH74 calledH7121 to JoabH3097 and saidH559, “Shall the swordH2719 devourH398 foreverH5331? Do you not knowH3045 that it will be bitterH4751 in the endH314? HowH4970 longH5704H4970 will you 1refrainH3808 from tellingH559 the peopleH5971 to turnH7725 backH7725 from followingH310 their brothersH251?”
27JoabH3097 saidH559, “As GodH430 livesH2416, ifH3588H3884 you had not spokenH1696, surelyH3588 thenH227 the peopleH5971 would have goneH5927 awayH5927 in the morningH1242, eachH376 from followingH310 his brotherH251.”
28So JoabH3097 blewH8628 the trumpetH7782; and allH3605 the peopleH5971 haltedH5975 and pursuedH7291 IsraelH3478 noH3808 longerH5750, 2norH3808 did they continueH3254 to fightH3898 anymoreH5750.
