Abner said again to Asahel, “Turn away from following me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How then could I look Joab your brother in the face?”

Qui audire contempsit , et noluit declinare : percussit ergo eum Abner aversa hasta in inguine , et transfodit , et mortuus est in eodem loco : omnesque qui transibant per locum illum , in quo ceciderat Asaël et mortuus erat , subsistebant .

However, he refused to turn away. Therefore Abner with the back end of the spear struck him in the body, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there and died in the same place. As many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.

Et exclamavit Abner ad Joab , et ait : Num usque ad internecionem tuus mucro desaeviet ? an ignoras quod periculosa sit desperatio ? usquequo non dicis populo ut omittat persequi fratres suos ?
