28 H8052 Then tidings H935 came [H8804] H3097 to Joab H3097 : for Joab H5186 had turned [H8804] H310 after H138 Adonijah H5186 , though he turned [H8804] H310 not after H53 Absalom H3097 . And Joab H5127 fled [H8799] H168 unto the tabernacle H3068 of the LORD H2388 , and caught hold [H8686] H7161 on the horns H4196 of the altar.

29 H5046 And it was told [H8714] H4428 king H8010 Solomon H3097 that Joab H5127 was fled [H8804] H168 unto the tabernacle H3068 of the LORD H681 ; and, behold, he is by H4196 the altar H8010 . Then Solomon H7971 sent [H8799] H1141 Benaiah H1121 the son H3077 of Jehoiada H559 , saying [H8800] H3212 , Go [H8798] H6293 , fall [H8798] upon him.

30 H1141 And Benaiah H935 came [H8799] H168 to the tabernacle H3068 of the LORD H559 , and said [H8799] H559 unto him, Thus saith [H8804] H4428 the king H3318 , Come forth [H8798] H559 . And he said [H8799] H4191 , Nay; but I will die [H8799] H1141 here. And Benaiah H7725 brought H4428 the king H1697 word H7725 again [H8686] H559 , saying [H8800] H1696 , Thus said [H8765] H3097 Joab H6030 , and thus he answered [H8804] me.

31 H4428 And the king H559 said [H8799] H6213 unto him, Do [H8798] H1696 as he hath said [H8765] H6293 , and fall [H8798] H6912 upon him, and bury [H8804] H5493 him; that thou mayest take away [H8689] H2600 the innocent H1818 blood H3097 , which Joab H8210 shed [H8804] H1004 , from me, and from the house H1 of my father.

32 H3068 And the LORD H7725 shall return [H8689] H1818 his blood H7218 upon his own head H6293 , who fell [H8804] H8147 upon two H582 men H6662 more righteous H2896 and better H2026 than he, and slew [H8799] H2719 them with the sword H1 , my father H1732 David H3045 not knowing [H8804] H74 thereof, to wit, Abner H1121 the son H5369 of Ner H8269 , captain H6635 of the host H3478 of Israel H6021 , and Amasa H1121 the son H3500 of Jether H8269 , captain H6635 of the host H3063 of Judah.

33 H1818 Their blood H7725 shall therefore return [H8804] H7218 upon the head H3097 of Joab H7218 , and upon the head H2233 of his seed H5769 for ever H1732 : but upon David H2233 , and upon his seed H1004 , and upon his house H3678 , and upon his throne H7965 , shall there be peace H5704 for H5769 ever H3068 from the LORD.

34 H1141 So Benaiah H1121 the son H3077 of Jehoiada H5927 went up [H8799] H6293 , and fell [H8799] H4191 upon him, and slew [H8686] H6912 him: and he was buried [H8735] H1004 in his own house H4057 in the wilderness.
