2 Samuel 3:8-10

Easy-to-Read Version

⁸ This made Abner very angry. He said, “I have been loyal to Saul and his family. I did not give you to David. I am not a traitor working for Judah.^[a] But now you are saying that I did this bad thing. ^9-10 The Lord promised with an oath that he would take the kingdom away from Saul’s family and give it to David. And I swear I will make sure that happens. God will make David king of Judah and Israel. He will rule from Dan to Beersheba.^[b]”
