2 Samuel - ch 2 v 21 - 32

  1. And Abner said, Then go to the right or to the left and put your hands on one of the fighting-men and take his arms. But Asahel would not be turned away from going after Abner.
  2. Then again Abner said to Asahel, Go to one side, do not keep on coming after me: why will you make me put an end to you? for then I will be shamed before your brother Joab.
  3. But still he did not go to one side: so Abner gave him a back blow in the stomach with his spear, so that the spear came out at his back; and he went down on the earth, wounded to death: and all those who came to the place where Asahel went down dead, came to a stop.
  4. But Joab and Abishai went after Abner: and the sun went down when they came to the hill of Ammah, which is to the east of the road through the waste land of Geba.
  5. And the men of Benjamin came together after Abner in one band, and took their places on the top of a hill.
  6. Then crying out to Joab, Abner said, Are fighting and destruction to go on for ever? do you not see that the end will only be bitter? how long will it be before you send the people back and make them give up attacking their countrymen?
  7. And Joab said, By the living God, if you had not given the word, the people would have gone on attacking their countrymen till the morning.
  8. So Joab had a horn sounded, and all the people came to a stop, and gave up going after Israel and fighting them.
  9. And all that night Abner and his men went through the Arabah; they went over Jordan and through all Bithron and came to Mahanaim.
  10. And Joab came back from fighting Abner: and when he had got all his men together, it was seen that nineteen of David's men, in addition to Asahel, were not with them.
  11. But David's men had put to death three hundred and sixty of the men of Benjamin and of Abner's men
  12. And they took Asahel's body and put it in the last resting-place of his father in Beth-lehem. And Joab and his men, travelling all night, came to Hebron at dawn.
