2 Samuel 3:8-10
Lexham English Bible
8 Abner became very angry[a] at the words of Ish-Bosheth, and he said, “Am I the head of a dog which is for Judah today? Do I not continue to show loyal love with the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends? I have not let you fall into the hands of David, yet you have accused me of sin with this woman[b] today. 9 Thus may God punish Abner,[c] if I do not accomplish what Yahweh has sworn to David;[d] 10 specifically, to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul and to establish the throne of David over Israel and over Judah from Dan to Beersheba!”
