And Joab said , Let them arise . * Then there arose and went over by number twelve sh @nayim # of Benjamin , which pertained to Ishbosheth #Iysh-Bosheth # the son of Saul Sha #uwl #, and twelve sh @nayim # of the servants of David . * And they caught every one his fellow by the head ro #sh #, and thrust his sword in his fellows side ; so they fell down together : wherefore that place was called Helkathhazzurim Chelqath hats-Tsu-riym #, which is in Gibeon Gib #own #. * And there was a very sore battle that day ; and Abner was beaten , and the men of Israel Yisra #el #, before the servants of David .
