2 Samuel 3:35-37

Revised Geneva Translation

³⁵ Afterward, all the people came to urge David to eat food while it was yet day. But David swore, saying, “So do God to me and more also if I taste bread or anything else until the Sun is down.”

³⁶ And all the people noted it, and it pleased them, since whatever the king did pleased all the people.

³⁷ For all the people and all Israel understood on that day how that it was not the king’s doing that Abner, the son of Ner, had been killed.
