2 Samuel 2:13-15

Modern English Version

¹³ And Joab the son of Zeruiah, with the servants of David, went out in order to meet together at the pool of Gibeon. They sat down, one group on one side of the pool and the other group on the side of the pool opposite them.

¹⁴ Abner suggested to Joab, “Let the young men come forward and compete before us.”

And Joab replied, “Let them come.”

¹⁵ So they stepped forward and were counted, twelve from Benjamin and Ish-Bosheth and twelve from the servants of David.
