2 Samuel 2:17 in Context — 2 Samuel 2
15 Ils se levèrent et s’avancèrent en nombre égal, douze pour Benjamin et pour Isch-Boscheth, fils de Saül, et douze des gens de David.
16 Chacun saisissant son adversaire par la tête lui enfonça son épée dans le flanc, et ils tombèrent tous ensemble. Et l’on donna à ce lieu, qui est près de Gabaon, le nom de Helkath-Hatsurim.
17 Il y eut en ce jour un combat très rude, dans lequel Abner et les hommes d’Israël furent battus par les gens de David.
18 Là se trouvaient les trois fils de Tseruja: Joab, Abischaï et Asaël. Asaël avait les pieds légers comme une gazelle des champs:
19 il poursuivit Abner, sans se détourner de lui pour aller à droite ou à gauche.
