Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 .
*
And they buried Abner in Hebron :
and the king lifted up his voice ,
and wept at the grave of Abner ;
and all the people wept .
*
And the king lamented over Abner ,
and said ,
Died Abner as a fool dieth ?
*
Thy hands were not bound ,
nor thy feet put into fetters :
as a man falleth before wicked men ,
so fellest thou .
And all the people wept again over him .
*
And when all the people came to cause David to eat meat while it was yet day ,
David sware ,
saying ,
So do God to me ,
and more also ,
if I taste bread ,
or ought else ,
till the sun be down .
