And it came to pass ,
while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David ,
that Abner made himself strong in the house of Saul .
asv @
2Samuel:3:7 @
Now Saul had a concubine ,
whose name was Rizpah ,
the daughter of Aiah :
and Ish-bosheth said to Abner ,
Wherefore hast thou gone in unto my father '
s concubine ?
asv @
2Samuel:3:8 @
Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ish-bosheth ,
and said ,
Am I a dog '
s head that belongeth to Judah ?
This day do I show kindness unto the house of Saul thy father ,
to his brethren ,
and to his friends ,
and have not delivered thee into the hand of David ;
and yet thou chargest me this day with a fault concerning this woman .

God do so to Abner ,
and more also ,
if ,
as Jehovah hath sworn to David ,
I do not even so to him ;

to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul ,
and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah ,
from Dan even to Beer-sheba .

And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf ,
saying ,
Whose is the land ?
saying also ,
Make thy league with me ,
and ,
behold ,
my hand shall be with thee ,
to bring about all Israel unto thee .
asv @
2Samuel:3:13 @
And he said ,
Well ;
I will make a league with thee ;
but one thing I require of thee :
that is ,
thou shalt not see my face ,
except thou first bring Michal ,
Saul '
s daughter ,
when thou comest to see my face .

And David sent messengers to Ish-bosheth ,
Saul '

saying ,
Deliver me my wife Michal ,
whom I betrothed to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines .

And Ish-bosheth sent ,
and took her from her husband ,
even from Paltiel the son of Laish .

weeping as he went ,
and followed her to Bahurim .

Go ,
return :
and he returned .

And Abner had communication with the elders of Israel ,
saying ,
In times past ye sought for David to be king over you :

for Jehovah hath spoken of David ,
saying ,
By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines ,
and out of the hand of all their enemies .

and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel ,
and to the whole house of Benjamin .

and twenty men with him .

I will arise and go ,
and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king ,
that they may make a covenant with thee ,
and that thou mayest reign over all that thy soul desireth .
And David sent Abner away ;
and he went in peace .
