Therefore, Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and the youths of David, went out and met them beside the pool of Gibeon. And when they had convened together, they sat down opposite one another: these on one side of the pool, and those on the other side. (2 Samuel 2, 13)
And Abner said to Joab, “Let the youths rise up and play before us.” And Joab answered, “Let them rise up.” (2 Samuel 2, 14)
And a very harsh war rose up on that day. And Abner, with the men of Israel, was put to flight by the youths of David. (2 Samuel 2, 17)
Now the three sons of Zeruiah were in that place: Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel. And Asahel was a very swift runner, like one of the deer that lives in the forest. (2 Samuel 2, 18)
And Asahel pursued Abner, and he did not turn aside to the right, nor to the left, to cease in the pursuit of Abner. (2 Samuel 2, 19)
And so, Abner looked behind his back, and he said, “Are you not Asahel?” And he responded, “I am.” (2 Samuel 2, 20)
And Abner said to him, “Go to the right, or to the left, and apprehend one of the youths, and take his spoils for yourself.” But Asahel was not willing to cease from pursuing him closely. (2 Samuel 2, 21)
And again, Abner said to Asahel: “Withdraw, and do not choose to follow me. Otherwise, I will be compelled to stab you to the ground, and I will not be able to lift up my face before your brother, Joab.” (2 Samuel 2, 22)
But he disdained to heed him, and he was not willing to turn aside. Therefore, turning, Abner struck him with his spear in the groin, and he pierced him through, and he died in the same place. And all those who would pass by the place, in which Asahel had fallen and died, would stand still. (2 Samuel 2, 23)
