2 Samuel 3:26 in Context — 2 Samuel 3

24 Então Joabe veio ao rei, e disse-lhe: Que fizeste? Eis que Abner veio a ti; por que pois o deixaste que se fosse?

25 Sabes tu que Abner filho de Ner veio para enganar-te, e para saber tua saída e tua entrada, e por entender tudo o que tu fazes?

26 E saindo Joabe da presença de Davi, enviou mensageiros atrás de Abner, os quais o fizeram voltar desde o poço de Sirá, sem que Davi soubesse.

27 E quando Abner voltou a Hebrom, apartou-o Joabe ao meio da porta, falando com ele brandamente, e ali lhe feriu pela quinta costela, por causa da morte de Asael seu irmão, e morreu.

28 Quando Davi soube depois isto, disse: Limpo estou eu e meu reino, pelo SENHOR, para sempre, do sangue de Abner filho de Ner.
