2 Samuel 3:30

---

← 2 Samuel 3:29	2 Samuel 3:30 (KJV)	2 Samuel 3:31 →
Let it rest on the head of Joab, and on all his father's house; and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue, or that is a leper, or that leaneth on a staff, or that falleth on the sword, or that lacketh bread.	So Joab and Abishai his brother slew Abner, because he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.	And David said to Joab, and to all the people that [were] with him, Rend your clothes, and gird you with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner. And king David [himself] followed the bier.
