The war between the armies of Judah and Israel
12 One day Abner and the officials of Isbosheth went from Mahanaim across the Jordan River to Gibeon city. 13 Joab, whose mother was Zeruiah, and some of David’s officials went from Hebron to Gibeon, and met at the pool there. They all sat down, the one group on one side of the pool and the other group on the other side.
14 Abner said to Joab, “Let’s tell some of our young men to fight each other!” Joab replied, “Okay!”
15 So twelve men from the tribe of Benjamin fought for Ishbosheth, against twelve of David’s soldiers. 16 Each of them grabbed the head of the man against whom he was fighting, and thrust his sword into that man’s side. The result was that all 24 of them fell down dead. So that area in Gibeon is now called ‘Field of Swords’.
17 Then the others started to fight. It was a very fierce battle. Abner and the men of Israel were defeated by David’s soldiers.
