David is speaking to Abner, who is dead and cannot hear him. He is doing this to communicate to the people listening to him that he feels very strongly about how Abner was treacherously murdered.

Alternate translation: [His hands were not bound, and his feet were not put in shackles. He died like someone murdered by wicked men]
