2 Samuel 2:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 Then Abner said to Joab, Let the young men now arise, and [a]play before us. And Joab said, Let them arise.
15 Then there arose and went over twelve of Benjamin by number, which pertained to Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
16 And every one caught his [b]fellow by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow’s side, so they fell down together: wherefore the place was called [c]Helkath Hazzurim, which is in Gibeon.
