2 Samuel 3:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ I will do for David what the Lord promised him. If I don’t, may God punish me greatly. ¹⁰ I’ll take the kingdom away from Saul’s royal house. I’ll set up the throne of David’s kingdom over Israel and Judah. He will rule from Dan all the way to Beersheba.” ¹¹ Ish-Bosheth didn’t dare to say another word to Abner. He was much too afraid of him.
