2 Samuel 3
Now
there
was
long
war
between
the
house
of
Saul
and
the
house
of
David:
but
David
waxed
stronger
and
stronger,
and
the
house
of
Saul
waxed
weaker
and
weaker.
2 And
unto
a
David
were
sons
born
in
Hebron:
and
his
firstborn
was
Amnon,
of
b
Ahinoam
the
Jezreelitess;
3 And
his
second,
Chileab,
of
Abigail
the
wife
of
Nabal
the
Carmelite;
and
the
third,
a
Absalom
the
son
of
Maacah
the
daughter
of
Talmai
king
of
b
Geshur;
4 And
the
fourth,
a
Adonijah
the
son
of
Haggith;
and
the
fifth,
Shephatiah
the
son
of
Abital;
5 And
the
sixth,
Ithream,
by
Eglah
David's
wife.
These
were
born
to
David
in
Hebron.
6 And
it
came
to
pass,
while
there
was
war
between
the
house
of
Saul
and
the
house
of
David,
that
a
Abner
made
himself
strong
for
the
house
of
Saul.
7 And
Saul
had
a
concubine,
whose
name
was
a
Rizpah,
the
daughter
of
Aiah:
and
Ish-bosheth
said
to
Abner,
Wherefore
hast
thou
gone
in
unto
my
father's
concubine?
8 Then
was
Abner
very
wroth
for
the
words
of
Ish-bosheth,
and
said,
Am
I
a
a
dog's
head,
which
against
Judah
do
shew
kindness
this
day
unto
the
house
of
Saul
thy
father,
to
his
brethren,
and
to
his
friends,
and
have
not
delivered
thee
into
the
hand
of
David,
that
thou
chargest
me
to
day
with
a
fault
concerning
this
woman?
9 So
do
God
to
Abner,
and
more
also,
except,
as
the
Lord
hath
sworn
to
a
David,
even
so
I
do
to
him;
10 To
a
translate
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.
11 And
he
could
not
answer
Abner
a
word
again,
because
he
feared
him.
12 And
Abner
sent
messengers
to
David
on
his
behalf,
saying,
Whose
is
the
land?
saying
also,
Make
thy
a
league
with
me,
and,
behold,
my
hand
shall
be
with
thee,
to
bring
about
all
Israel
unto
thee.
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.
14 And
David
sent
messengers
to
Ish-bosheth
Saul's
son,
saying,
Deliver
me
my
wife
a
Michal,
which
I
espoused
to
me
for
an
hundred
foreskins
of
the
Philistines.
15 And
Ish-bosheth
sent,
and
took
her
from
her
husband,
even
from
a
Phaltiel
the
son
of
Laish.
