2 Samuel 3 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
24 And Joab went in to the king, & said: What hast thou done? Behold Abner came to thee: why didst thou dismiss him & he is gone & departed?
25 knowest thou not Abner the son of Ner, that to this end he came to thee, that he might deceive thee, & might know thy going out, & thy coming in, & understand all things that thou doest?
26 Joab therefore being gone from David, sent messengers after Abner, and brought him back from the cistern Sira, David being ignorant thereof.
27 And when Abner was returned into Hebron, Joab brought him aside to the midst of the gate, to spake unto him in guile: and struck him there in the privy parts, & he died, in revenge of the blood of Asael his brother.
