2 Samuel 2:15-17
Common English Bible
15 So the men came forward and were counted as they passed by: twelve for Benjamin and Ishbosheth, Saul’s son; and twelve of David’s soldiers. 16 Each man grabbed his opponent by the head and stuck[a] his sword into his opponent’s side so that they both fell dead together. That’s why that place is called The Field of Daggers,[b] which is located in Gibeon. 17 A fierce battle took place that day, and Abner and the Israelite troops were defeated by David’s soldiers.
