2 Samuel 2:18-20

International Standard Version

Abner Kills Joab’s Brother Asahel

¹⁸ Zeruiah’s three sons Joab, Abishai, and Asahel were there. As a runner, Asahel was fast, like one of the wild gazelles. ¹⁹ So Asahel ran straight^[a] after Abner, following him. ²⁰ When Abner looked behind him, he said, “Is that you, Asahel?”

He answered, “I am.”
