2 Samuel 3:22-30

22And, beholdH2009, the servantsH5650 of DavidH1732 and JoabH3097 cameH935 from a foray, and broughtH935 in a greatH7227 spoilH7998 with them: but AbnerH74 was notH369 with DavidH1732 in HebronH2275; for he had sentH7971 him awayH7971, and he was goneH935 in peaceH7965.

23When JoabH3097 and allH3605 the hostH6635 that was with him were comeH935, they toldH5046 JoabH3097, sayingH559, AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369 cameH935 to the kingH4428, and he hath sentH7971 him awayH7971, and he is goneH935 in peaceH7965.

24Then JoabH3097 cameH935 to the kingH4428, and saidH559, WhatH4100 hast thou doneH6213? beholdH2009, AbnerH74 cameH935 unto thee; whyH4100 is it that thou hast sentH7971 him awayH7971, and he is quite goneH1980?

25Thou knowest AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369, that he cameH935 to deceive thee, and to knowH3045 thy goingH935 outH3045 and thy comingH935 in, and to knowH3045 allH3605 that thou doest.

26And when JoabH3097 was comeH3318 outH3318 from DavidH1732, he sentH7971 messengersH4397 afterH310 AbnerH74, and they broughtH3318 him backH7725 from the wellH3045 of SirahH5626: but DavidH1732 knewH3045 it notH3808.

27And when AbnerH74 was returnedH7725 to HebronH2275, JoabH3097 tookH5186 him asideH5186 intoH413 the midstH8432 of the gateH8179 to speakH1696 with him quietly, and smoteH5221 him there in the bellyH2570, that he diedH4191, for the bloodH1818 of AsahelH6214 his brotherH251.

28And afterwardH310 when DavidH1732 heardH8085 it, he saidH559, I and my kingdomH4467 are guiltless beforeH5973 the LORDH3068 for everH5703 from the bloodH1818 of AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369:

29letH408 it fallH5307 uponH5921 the headH7218 of JoabH3097, and uponH5921 allH3605 his father’sH1 houseH1004; and letH408 there notH408 failH3772 from the houseH1004 of JoabH3097 one that hath an issue, or that is a leperH6879, or that leaneth on a staff, or that falleth by the swordH2719, or that lacketh breadH3899.

30SoH834 JoabH3097 and AbishaiH52 his brotherH251 slewH2026 AbnerH74, becauseH5921 he had killedH2026 their brotherH251 AsahelH6214 at GibeonH1391 in the battleH4421.
