2 Samuel 3:20-22

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ And he came to David in Hebron with twenty men: and David made a feast for Abner, and his men that came with him.

²¹ And Abner said to David: I will rise, that I may gather all Israel unto thee my lord the king, and may enter into a league with thee, and that thou mayst reign over all as thy soul desireth. Now when David bad brought Abner on his way, and he was gone in peace,

²² Immediately David's servants and Joab came, after having slain the robbers, with an exceeding great booty: and Abner, was not with David in Hebron, for he had now sent him away, and he was gone in peace.
