2 Samuel 3:7-9

EasyEnglish Bible

⁷ Saul had had slave wife called Rizpah. She was Aiah's daughter. One day, Ish-Bosheth asked Abner, ‘Why did you sleep with my father's woman?’^[a]

⁸ Abner was very angry because of what Ish-Bosheth had said to him. Abner said, ‘Do you think that I am a useless dog that belongs to Judah? I have always been faithful to your father Saul and to his family and his friends. I have not deceived you to put you under David's power. But now you say that I am guilty of a sin with this woman. ⁹ So I promise you this! Now I will help David to get what the Lord has promised to him. I ask God to punish me if I do not help David!
