2 Samuel 3:28-29
28Afterward, when David heard about this, he said, “I and my kingdom are innocent before the Lord forever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner.
291May it turn upon the head of Joab and on all his father’s house; and may there not be eliminated from the house of Joab 2someone who suffers a discharge, or has leprosy, or 3holds the spindle, or falls by the sword, or lacks bread.”
