2 Samuel 3:27-30

27And when AbnerH74 was returnedH7725 to HebronH2275, JoabH3097 took him asideH5186 inH8432H413 the gateH8179 to speakH1696 with him quietlyH7987, and smoteH5221 him there under the fifthH2570 rib, that he diedH4191, for the bloodH1818 of AsahelH6214 his brotherH251.1

28And afterwardH310 when DavidH1732 heardH8085 it, he saidH559, I and my kingdomH4467 are guiltlessH5355 before YhwhH3068 forH5704 everH5769 from the bloodH1818 of AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369:2 29Let it restH2342 on the headH7218 of JoabH3097, and on all his father’sH1 houseH1004; and let there not failH3772 from the houseH1004 of JoabH3097 one that hath an issueH2100, or that is a leperH6879, or that leanethH2388 on a staffH6418, or that fallethH5307 on the swordH2719, or that lackethH2638 breadH3899.3 30So JoabH3097 and AbishaiH52 his brotherH251 slewH2026 AbnerH74, because he had slainH4191 their brotherH251 AsahelH6214 at GibeonH1391 in the battleH4421.
