And there were three sons of Zeruiah there, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel: and Asahel was as light of foot as a wild roe.(2 Samuel 2:18)

And Asahel pursued after Abner; and in going he turned not to the right hand nor to the left from following Abner.(2 Samuel 2:19)

Then Abner looked behind him, and said, Art thou Asahel? And he answered, I am.(2 Samuel 2:20)

And Abner said again to Asahel, Turn thee aside from following me: wherefore should I smite thee to the ground? how then should I hold up my face to Joab thy brother?(2 Samuel 2:22)

Howbeit he refused to turn aside: wherefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear smote him under the fifth rib, that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place: and it came to pass, that as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.(2 Samuel 2:23)

Joab also and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sun went down when they were come to the hill of Ammah, that lieth before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.(2 Samuel 2:24)
