so

It came euen to passe on the third day, that behold, a man came out of the campe from Saul, with his clothes rent, and earth vpon his head: and so it was when he came to Dauid, that hee fell to the earth, and did obeysance.

So I stood vpon him, and slew him, because I was sure that hee could not liue after that hee was fallen: And I tooke the crowne that was vpon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arme, and haue brought them hither vnto my lord.

So Dauid went vp thither, and his two wiues also, Ahinoam the Iezreelitesse, and Abigail Nabals wife the Carmelite.

And they caught euery one his fellow by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellowes side, so they fell downe together: Wherfore that place was called Helkath-hazzurim, which is in Gibeon.

So Ioab blew a trumpet, and all the people stood still, and pursued after Israel no more, neither fought they any more.

But the seruants of Dauid had smitten of Beniamin and of Abners men, so that three hundred and threescore men died.

So doe God to Abner, and more also, except, as the LORD hath sworne to Dauid, euen so I doe to him:

So Abner came to Dauid to Hebron, and twenty men with him: and Dauid made Abner, and the men that were with him, a feast.

So Ioab and Abishai his brother slew Abner, because he had slaine their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battell.

Thy hands were not bound, nor thy feete put into fetters: as a man falleth before wicked men, so fellest thou. And all the people wept againe ouer him.
