2 Samuel 3:35-37

GOD’S WORD Translation

³⁵ That entire day all the people tried to get David to eat some food. But David had taken an oath: “May God strike me dead if I taste any food or anything else before the sun goes down.” ³⁶ Then all the people understood and approved of this, as all the people approved of everything the king did. ³⁷ That day all the people of Israel knew the king wasn’t responsible for killing Ner’s son Abner.
