2 Samuel 3:33-38

MKJV(i) 33 And the king mourned over Abner and said, Did Abner die like a fool dies? 34 Your hands were not bound, nor your feet put into fetters; as a man falls before wicked men, so you fell. And all the people wept again over him. 35 And all the people came to cause David to eat food while it was still day; David swore, saying, So let God do to me, and more also, if I taste bread or anything else until the sun is down. 36 And all the people took notice, and it pleased them, as whatever the king did pleased all the people. 37 For all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to kill Abner the son of Ner. 38 And the king said to his servants, Do you not know that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel?
