2 Samuel 3:11-13
Good News Translation
11 Ishbosheth was so afraid of Abner that he could not say a word.
12 Abner sent messengers to David, who at that time was at Hebron,[a] to say, “Who is going to rule this land? Make an agreement with me, and I will help you win all Israel over to your side.”
13 “Good!” David answered. “I will make an agreement with you on one condition: you must bring Saul's daughter Michal to me when you come to see me.”

11 Ish-Bosheth did not dare to say another word to Abner, because he was afraid of him.
