2 Samuel 3:24-27
24Then JoabH3097 cameH935 to the kingH4428 and saidH559, “WhatH4100 have you doneH6213? BeholdH2009, AbnerH74 cameH935 to you; whyH4100 thenH2088 have you letH7971 him goH7971, so that he is alreadyH1980 goneH1980? 25You knowH3045 AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369, that he cameH935 to gainH6601 your confidenceH6601, and to learnH3045 of 1your 2goingH4161 out and comingH4126 inH4126 and to findH3045 outH3045 everythingH3605 that you are doingH6213.”
26When JoabH3097 leftH3318 David’sH1732 presenceH5973, he sentH7971 messengersH4397 afterH310 AbnerH74, and they broughtH7725 him backH7725 from the wellH953 of SirahH5626; but DavidH1732 did not knowH3045 about it. 27So when AbnerH74 returnedH7725 to HebronH2275, JoabH3097 tookH5186 him asideH5186 into the middleH8432 of the gateH8179 to speakH1696 with him privatelyH7987, and thereH8033 3he struckH5221 him in the bellyH2570, so that he diedH4191 on account of the bloodH1818 of his brotherH251 AsahelH6214.
