2 Samuel 2:20-22

Darby Translation

²⁰ Then Abner looked behind him, and said, Art thou Asahel? And he said, I am.

²¹ And Abner said to him, Turn thee aside, to thy right hand or to thy left, and lay hold of one of the young men, and take for thyself his armour. But Asahel would not turn aside from following him.

²² And Abner said again to Asahel, Turn thee aside from following me: why should I smite thee to the ground? how then should I hold up my face to Joab thy brother?
