2 Samuel 2:18–22 · Berean Standard Bible
18 The three sons of Zeruiah were there: Joab, Abishai, and Asahel. Now Asahel was fleet of foot like a wild gazelle,
19 and he chased Abner, not turning to the right or to the left in his pursuit.
20 And Abner glanced back and said, “Is that you, Asahel?” “It is,” Asahel replied.
21 So Abner told him, “Turn to your right or to your left, seize one of the young men, and take his equipment for yourself.” But Asahel would not stop chasing him.
22 Once again, Abner warned Asahel, “Stop chasing me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How could I show my face to your brother Joab?”
