2 Samuel 2:15-17

Expanded Bible

¹⁵ Then the men got up and were counted—twelve from the people of Benjamin for Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, and twelve from David’s men. ¹⁶ Each man grabbed the one opposite him by the ·head [hair] and stabbed him in the side with a ·knife [dagger; sword]. So the men fell down together. For that reason, that place in Gibeon is called the Field of ·Knives [Daggers; Swords; or Sides]. ¹⁷ That day there was a ·terrible [fierce] battle, and David’s ·men [^Lservants] defeated Abner and the Israelites.
