2 Samuel 3:19-21

Common English Bible

¹⁹ Abner also spoke directly to the Benjaminites. He then went to inform David in person at Hebron regarding everything that all Israel and the house of Benjamin were willing to do.

²⁰ When Abner, along with twenty others, reached David at Hebron, David threw a celebration for Abner and his men. ²¹ Then Abner said to David, “Please let me get going so I can assemble all Israel for my master the king. Then they can make a covenant with you, and you will rule over everything your heart^[a] desires.” At that, David sent Abner off in peace.
