³⁰ Joab left the battle and he returned with David's men. They counted all the soldiers. Asahel had died, as well as 19 other men. ³¹ But David's soldiers had killed 360 men of Benjamin's tribe who were fighting in Abner's army.

³² They took Asahel's body from the place where he died. They buried him in his father's grave at Bethlehem. Then Joab and his men marched all night. They arrived home at Hebron at dawn.
