2 Samuel 3:25-27
1599 Geneva Bible
25 Thou knowest Abner the son of Ner: for he came to deceive thee, and to know thy outgoing and ingoing, and to know all that thou doest.
26 ¶ And when Joab was gone out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, which brought him again from the well of Sirah unknowing to David.
27 And when Abner was come again to Hebron, (A)Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him [a]peaceably, and smote him under the fifth rib, that he died, for the blood of (B)Asahel his brother.
