    17And there was a very fierce battle that day; and Abner was defeated, and the men of Israel, before the servants of David.

    20Then Abner looked behind him, and said, Is that you, Asahel? And he answered, I am.

    22And Abner said again to Asahel, Turn aside from following me: why should I strike you to the ground? How could I face Joab your brother?

    23But he refused to turn aside: therefore Abner struck him with the back end of the spear under the fifth rib, so the spear came out behind him; and he fell there and died on the spot: and as many as came to the place where Asahel fell and died stood still.
