1
Now there was long [0752] war [4421] between the house [1004] of Saul [7586] and the house [1004] of David: [1732] but David [1732] waxed stronger [1980] and stronger, [2390] and the house [1004] of Saul [7586] waxed weaker [1980] and weaker. [1800]
2
And unto David [1732] were sons [1121] born [3205] in Hebron: [2275] and his firstborn [1060] was Amnon, [0550] of Ahinoam [0293] the Jezreelitess; [3159]
3
And his second, [4932] Chileab, [3609] of Abigail [0026] the wife [0802] of Nabal [5037] the Carmelite; [3761] and the third, [7992] Absalom [0053] the son [1121] of Maacah [4601] the daughter [1323] of Talmai [8526] king [4428] of Geshur; [1650]
4
And the fourth, [7243] Adonijah [0138] the son [1121] of Haggith; [2294] and the fifth, [2549] Shephatiah [8203] the son [1121] of Abital; [0037]
5
And the sixth, [8345] Ithream, [3507] by Eglah [5698] David's [1732] wife. [0802] These were born [3205] to David [1732] in Hebron. [2275]
6
And it came to pass, while there was war [4421] between the house [1004] of Saul [7586] and the house [1004] of David, [1732] that Abner [0074] made himself strong [2388] for the house [1004] of Saul. [7586]
7
And Saul [7586] had a concubine, [6370] whose name [8034] [was] Rizpah, [7532] the daughter [1323] of Aiah: [0345] and [Ishbosheth] said [0559] to Abner, [0074] Wherefore hast thou gone in [0935] unto my father's [0001] concubine? [6370]
8
Then was Abner [0074] very [3966] wroth [2734] for the words [1697] of Ishbosheth, [0378] and said, [0559] [Am] I a dog's [3611] head, [7218] which against Judah [3063] do shew [6213] kindness [2617] this day [3117] unto the house [1004] of Saul [7586] thy father, [0001] to his brethren, [0251] and to his friends, [4828] and have not delivered [4672] thee into the hand [3027] of David, [1732] that thou chargest [6485] me to day [3117] with a fault [5771] concerning this woman? [0802]
9
So do [6213] God [0430] to Abner, [0074] and more [3254] also, except, as the LORD [3068] hath sworn [7650] to David, [1732] even so I do [6213] to him;
10
To translate [5674] the kingdom [4467] from the house [1004] of Saul, [7586] and to set up [6965] the throne [3678] of David [1732] over Israel [3478] and over Judah, [3063] from Dan [1835] even to Beersheba. [0884]
11
And he could [3201] not answer [7725] Abner [0074] a word [1697] again, because he feared [3372] him.
12
And Abner [0074] sent [7971] messengers [4397] to David [1732] on his behalf, saying, [0559] Whose [is] the land? [0776] saying [0559] [also], Make [3772] thy league [1285] with me, and, behold, my hand [3027] [shall be] with thee, to bring about [5437] all Israel [3478] unto thee.
13
And he said, [0559] Well; [2896] I will make [3772] a league [1285] with thee: but one [0259] thing [1697] I require [7592] of thee, that is, [0559] Thou shalt not see [7200] my face, [6440] except thou first [6440] bring [0935] Michal [4324] Saul's [7586] daughter, [1323] when thou comest [0935] to see [7200] my face. [6440]
14
And David [1732] sent [7971] messengers [4397] to Ishbosheth [0378] Saul's [7586] son, [1121] saying, [0559] Deliver [5414] [me] my wife [0802] Michal, [4324] which I espoused [0781] to me for an hundred [3967] foreskins [6190] of the Philistines. [6430]
15
And Ishbosheth [0378] sent, [7971] and took [3947] her from [her] husband, [0376] [even] from Phaltiel [6409] the son [1121] of Laish. [3889] [3919]
16
And her husband [0376] went [3212] with her along [1980] weeping [1058] behind [0310] her to Bahurim. [0980] Then said [0559] Abner [0074] unto him, Go, [3212] return. [7725] And he returned. [7725]
17
And Abner [0074] had [1961] communication [1697] with the elders [2205] of Israel, [3478] saying, [0559] Ye sought [1245] for David [1732] in times past [8543] [8032] [to be] king [4428] over you:
18
Now then do [6213] [it]: for the LORD [3068] hath spoken [0559] of David, [1732] saying, [0559] By the hand [3027] of my servant [5650] David [1732] I will save [3467] my people [5971] Israel [3478] out of the hand [3027] of the Philistines, [6430] and out of the hand [3027] of all their enemies. [0341]
19
And Abner [0074] also spake [1696] in the ears [0241] of Benjamin: [1144] and Abner [0074] went [3212] also to speak [1696] in the ears [0241] of David [1732] in Hebron [2275] all that seemed [5869] good [2896] to Israel, [3478] and that seemed [5869] good to the whole house [1004] of Benjamin. [1144]
20
So Abner [0074] came [0935] to David [1732] to Hebron, [2275] and twenty [6242] men [0582] with him. And David [1732] made [6213] Abner [0074] and the men [0582] that [were] with him a feast. [4960]
21
And Abner [0074] said [0559] unto David, [1732] I will arise [6965] and go, [3212] and will gather [6908] all Israel [3478] unto my lord [0113] the king, [4428] that they may make [3772] a league [1285] with thee, and that thou mayest reign [4427] over all that thine heart [5315] desireth. [0183] And David [1732] sent Abner [0074] away; [7971] and he went [3212] in peace. [7965]
22
And, behold, the servants [5650] of David [1732] and Joab [3097] came [0935] from [pursuing] a troop, [1416] and brought in [0935] a great [7227] spoil [7998] with them: but Abner [0074] [was] not with David [1732] in Hebron; [2275] for he had sent him away, [7971] and he was gone [3212] in peace. [7965]
23
When Joab [3097] and all the host [6635] that [was] with him were come, [0935] they told [5046] Joab, [3097] saying, [0559] Abner [0074] the son [1121] of Ner [5369] came [0935] to the king, [4428] and he hath sent him away, [7971] and he is gone [3212] in peace. [7965]
24
Then Joab [3097] came [0935] to the king, [4428] and said, [0559] What hast thou done? [6213] behold, Abner [0074] came [0935] unto thee; why [is] it [that] thou hast sent him away, [7971] and he is quite [1980] gone? [3212]
25
Thou knowest [3045] Abner [0074] the son [1121] of Ner, [5369] that he came [0935] to deceive [6601] thee, and to know [3045] thy going out [4161] and thy coming in, [4126] [3996] and to know [3045] all that thou doest. [6213]
26
And when Joab [3097] was come out [3318] from David, [1732] he sent [7971] messengers [4397] after [0310] Abner, [0074] which brought him again [7725] from the well [0953] of Sirah: [5626] but David [1732] knew [3045] [it] not.
27
And when Abner [0074] was returned [7725] to Hebron, [2275] Joab [3097] took him aside [5186] in [0413] [8432] the gate [8179] to speak [1696] with him quietly, [7987] and smote [5221] him there under the fifth [2570] [rib], that he died, [4191] for the blood [1818] of Asahel [6214] his brother. [0251]
28
And afterward [0310] when David [1732] heard [8085] [it], he said, [0559] I and my kingdom [4467] [are] guiltless [5355] before the LORD [3068] for [5704] ever [5769] from the blood [1818] of Abner [0074] the son [1121] of Ner: [5369]
29
Let it rest [2342] on the head [7218] of Joab, [3097] and on all his father's [0001] house; [1004] and let there not fail [3772] from the house [1004] of Joab [3097] one that hath an issue, [2100] or that is a leper, [6879] or that leaneth [2388] on a staff, [6418] or that falleth [5307] on the sword, [2719] or that lacketh [2638] bread. [3899]
30
So Joab [3097] and Abishai [0052] his brother [0251] slew [2026] Abner, [0074] because he had slain [4191] their brother [0251] Asahel [6214] at Gibeon [1391] in the battle. [4421]
31
And David [1732] said [0559] to Joab, [3097] and to all the people [5971] that [were] with him, Rend [7167] your clothes, [0899] and gird [2296] you with sackcloth, [8242] and mourn [5594] before [6440] Abner. [0074] And king [4428] David [1732] [himself] followed [1980] [0310] the bier. [4296]
32
And they buried [6912] Abner [0074] in Hebron: [2275] and the king [4428] lifted up [5375] his voice, [6963] and wept [1058] at the grave [6913] of Abner; [0074] and all the people [5971] wept. [1058]
33
And the king [4428] lamented [6969] over Abner, [0074] and said, [0559] Died [4191] Abner [0074] as a fool [5036] dieth? [4194]
34
Thy hands [3027] [were] not bound, [0631] nor thy feet [7272] put [5066] into fetters: [5178] as a man falleth [5307] before [6440] wicked [5766] men, [1121] [so] fellest [5307] thou. And all the people [5971] wept [1058] again [3254] over him.
35
And when all [3605] the people [5971] came [0935] to cause David [1732] to eat [1262] meat [3899] while it was yet [5750] day, [3117] David [1732] sware, [7650] saying, [0559] So do [6213] God [0430] to me, and more [3254] also, if I taste [2938] bread, [3899] or ought [3972] else, [3605] till [6440] the sun [8121] be down. [0935]
36
And all [3605] the people [5971] took notice [5234] [of it], and it pleased [3190] [5869] them: as whatsoever the king [4428] did [6213] pleased [5869] [2896] all [3605] the people. [5971]
37
For all [3605] the people [5971] and all [3605] Israel [3478] understood [3045] that day [3117] that it was not of the king [4428] to slay [4191] Abner [0074] the son [1121] of Ner. [5369]
38
And the king [4428] said [0559] unto his servants, [5650] Know [3045] ye not that there is a prince [8269] and a great man [1419] fallen [5307] this day [3117] in Israel? [3478]
39
And I [am] this day [3117] weak, [7390] though anointed [4886] king; [4428] and these men [0582] the sons [1121] of Zeruiah [6870] [be] too hard [7186] for me: the LORD [3068] shall reward [7999] the doer [6213] of evil according to his wickedness. [7451]
