2 Samuel 3:31-39 - David Mourns Abner
31 And David said to Joab and to all the people that were with him, "Rent your clothes and put on sackcloth and mourn before Abner." And king David himself followed the bier.
32 And when they had buried Abner in Hebron, the king lifted up his voice and wept over the sepulchre of Abner, and so did all the people. 33 And the king lamented over Abner and said, "Abner died not as a wretch dieth. 34 Thy hands were not manacled nor thy feet brought into fetters: but as men fall before wicked children, so fellest thou." And all the people wept yet more over him.
35 And when all the people came to eat meat with David, while it was yet day, David sware, saying, "So do God to me and so thereto, if I taste bread or ought else till the sun be down." 36 And the people wist it, and it pleased them, as well as all other good things which the king did in the sight of the people. 37 And all the people and all Israel thereto understood that day how that it was not the king's mind to slay Abner the son of Ner.
38 And the king said unto his servants, "Know ye not, how that there is a lord, and that a great, fallen this day in Israel? 39 And I am this day tender, though I be anointed king. And these men the sons of Zeruiah be too strong for me to rule. But the LORD reward the doer of evil, according to his wickedness."
