2 Samuel 2:20-22

New Century Version

²⁰ Abner looked back and asked, “Is that you, Asahel?”

Asahel said, “Yes, it is.”

²¹ Then Abner said to Asahel, “Turn to your right or left and catch one of the young men and take his armor.” But Asahel refused to stop chasing him.

²² Abner again said to Asahel, “Stop chasing me! If you don’t stop, I’ll have to kill you! Then I won’t be able to face your brother Joab again!”
