2 Samuel 2:19-21

Contemporary English Version

¹⁹ and he ran straight after Abner, without looking to the right or to the left.

²⁰ When Abner turned and saw him, he said, “Is that you, Asahel?”

Asahel answered, “Yes it is.”

²¹ Abner said, “There are soldiers all around. Stop chasing me and fight one of them! Kill him and take his clothes and weapons for yourself.”

But Asahel refused to stop.
