In context
18 Wana watatu wa Seruya walikuwepo pale: Yoabu, Abishai na Asaheli.
19 Asaheli alikuwa mwepesi miguuni kama paa. Akamfuatilia Abneri kwa karibu bila kugeuka upande wowote.
20 Abneri akaangalia nyuma yake na kusema, “Ni wewe Asaheli?” Akajibu, “ni mimi.”
21 Abneri akamwambia, “Geuka upande wako wa kuria au kushoto umshike mmojawapo wa vijana na kuchukua silaha yake.” Lakini Asaheli hakugeuka.
22 Ndipo Abneri alipomwambia tena Asaheli, “Simama usinifuate. Kwa nini nikupige hata chini? Nitautazamaje uso wa Yoabu ndugu yako?”
23 Lakini Asaheli hakukubari kugeuka. na hivyo Abneri akamchoma kwa nchi ya mkuki wake, hata ukatokea upande wa pili. Asaheli akaanguka chini akafa. Hata ikawa kila mmoja aliyefika mahali pale Asaheli alipoanguka na kufa, alisimama hapo hapo.
24 Lakini Yoabu na Abishai wakamfuatilia Abneri. Wakati jua linazama walikuwa wamefika mlima wa Amma, uliopo karibu na Gia katika njia ielekeayo nyika ya Gibeoni.
