27So when AbnerH74 returnedH7725 to HebronH2275, JoabH3097 tookH5186 him asideH5186 into the middleH8432 of the gateH8179 to speakH1696 with him privatelyH7987, and thereH8033 1he struckH5221 him in the bellyH2570, so that he diedH4191 on account of the bloodH1818 of his brotherH251 AsahelH6214. 28AfterwardH310, when DavidH1732 heardH8085 about this, he saidH559, “I and my kingdomH4467 are innocentH5355 beforeH4480H5973 the LordH3068 foreverH5704H5769 of the bloodH1818 of AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369. 292May it turnH2342 upon the headH7218 of JoabH3097 and on allH3605 his father’sH1 houseH1004; and may there not be eliminatedH3772 from the houseH1004 of JoabH3097 3someone who suffersH2100 a dischargeH2100, or has leprosyH6879, or 4holdsH2388 the spindleH6418, or fallsH5307 by the swordH2719, or lacksH2638 breadH3899.” 30So JoabH3097 and his brotherH251 AbishaiH52 killedH2026 AbnerH74 5becauseH5921H834 he had putH4191 their brotherH251 AsahelH6214 toH4191 deathH4191 in the battleH4421 at GibeonH1391.
