2 Samuel 3:33-35
Contemporary English Version
33 Then the king sang a funeral song about Abner:
Abner, why should you
have died like an outlaw?[a]
34 No one tied your hands
or chained your feet,
yet you died as a victim
of murderers.
Everyone started crying again. 35 Then they brought some food to David and told him he would feel better if he had something to eat. It was still daytime, and David said, “I swear to God that I won't take a bite of bread or anything else until sunset!”
