27 When Abʹner returned to Heʹbron,+ Joʹab now led him aside inside the gate to speak with him quietly.+ However, there he struck him in the abdomen,+ so that he died because of the blood of Asʹa·hel+ his brother.

6 And here they came into the middle of the house as men fetching wheat, and then struck him in the abdomen;+ and Reʹchab and Baʹa·nah+ his brother themselves escaped detection.

10 As for A·maʹsa, he was not on guard against the sword that was in Joʹab’s hand; so that he struck him+ with it in the abdomen, and his intestines spilled out to the earth, and he did not have to do it to him again. So he died. And Joʹab and A·bishʹai his brother, for their part, chased after Sheʹba the son of Bichʹri.
