2 Samuel 3:8-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
8
Then Abner became very angry over Ish-bosheth’s question and said, 'Am I a dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show kindness to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers and to his friends, and have not let you fall into the hands of David; yet today you call me to account for wrongdoing with that woman?
9
May God do so to me, and more so, if as the
Lord
has sworn to David, I do not accomplish this for him:
10
to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to establish the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba!'
11
And
Ish-bosheth
could no longer say a word in response to Abner, because he was afraid of him.
King James Version
Chapter 3
8
Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, Am I a dog's head, which against Judah do shew kindness this day unto the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David, that thou chargest me to day with a fault concerning this woman?
9
So do God to Abner, and more also, except, as the
Lord
hath sworn to David, even so I do to him;
10
To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.
11
And he could not answer Abner a word again, because he feared him.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
8
Abner was very angry about Ish-bosheth’s accusation. "Am I a dog’s head who belongs to Judah?" he asked. "All this time I’ve been loyal to the family of your father Saul, to his brothers, and to his friends and haven’t betrayed you to David, but now you accuse me of wrongdoing with this woman!
9
May God punish Abner and do so severely if I don’t do for David what the
Lord
swore to him:
10
to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul and establish the throne of David over Israel and Judah from Dan to Beer-sheba."
11
Ish-bosheth did not dare respond to Abner because he was afraid of him.
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
8
Abner was furious. 'Am I some Judean dog to be kicked around like this?' he shouted. 'After all I have done for your father, Saul, and his family and friends by not handing you over to David, is this my reward — that you find fault with me about this woman?
9
May God strike me and even kill me if I don’t do everything I can to help David get what the
Lord
has promised him!
10
I’m going to take Saul’s kingdom and give it to David. I will establish the throne of David over Israel as well as Judah, all the way from Dan in the north to Beersheba in the south.'
11
Ishbosheth didn’t dare say another word because he was afraid of what Abner might do.
English Standard Version
Chapter 3
8
Then Abner was very angry over the words of Ish-bosheth and said, "Am I a dog 's head of Judah? To this day I keep showing steadfast love to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not given you into the hand of David. And yet you charge me today with a fault concerning a woman.
9
God do so to Abner and more also, if I do not accomplish for David what the
Lord
has sworn to him,
10
to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul and set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan to Beersheba."
11
And Ish-bosheth could not answer Abner another word, because he feared him.
New International Version
Chapter 3
8
Abner was very angry because of what Ish-Bosheth said. So he answered, "Am I a dog’s head—on Judah’s side? This very day I am loyal to the house of your father Saul and to his family and friends. I haven’t handed you over to David. Yet now you accuse me of an offense involving this woman!
9
May God deal with Abner, be it ever so severely, if I do not do for David what the
Lord
promised him on oath
10
and transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul and establish David’s throne over Israel and Judah from Dan to Beersheba."
11
Ish-Bosheth did not dare to say another word to Abner, because he was afraid of him.
New King James Version
Chapter 3
8
Then Abner became very angry at the words of Ishbosheth, and said, “
Am
I a dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show loyalty to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman?
9
May God do so to Abner, and more also, if I do not do for David as the
Lord
has sworn to him—
10
to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul, and set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan to Beersheba.”
11
And he could not answer Abner another word, because he feared him.
