2 Samuel 3:11-13

Good News Translation

¹¹ Ishbosheth was so afraid of Abner that he could not say a word.

¹² Abner sent messengers to David, who at that time was at Hebron,^[a] to say, “Who is going to rule this land? Make an agreement with me, and I will help you win all Israel over to your side.”

¹³ “Good!” David answered. “I will make an agreement with you on one condition: you must bring Saul's daughter Michal to me when you come to see me.”
