And Joab the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out and met them by the pool of Gibeon. So they sat down, one on one side of the pool and the other on the other side of the pool.

So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.

And the king said to Amasa, "Assemble the men of Judah for me within three days, and be present here yourself."

So Amasa went to assemble [the men of] Judah. But he delayed longer than the set time which David had appointed him.
