2 Samuel 3:35-37

New American Standard Bible

³⁵ Then all the people came ^(A)to provide ^[a]food for David in his distress while it was still day; but David vowed, saying, “^(B)May God do so to me, and more so, if I taste bread or anything else ^(C)before the sun goes down.” ³⁶ Now all the people took note of David’s vow, and it ^[b]pleased them, just as everything that the king did ^[c]pleased all the people. ³⁷ So all the people and all Israel understood on that day that it had not been the desire of the king to put Abner the son of Ner to death.
