AMPLIFIED 2015					2 Sam 3:27 So when Abner returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside to the middle of the gate to speak to him privately, and there he struck Abner in the abdomen so that he died, ¹to avenge the blood of Asahel, Joab's brother.

Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

This was an act of murder, not justifiable revenge, because Abner had killed Asahel in self-defense during a battle.

2 Sam 2:23 However, he refused to turn aside; therefore Abner struck him in the belly with the butt end of the spear, so that the spear came out at his back. And he fell there and died on the spot. And it came about that all who came to the place where Asahel had fallen and died, stood still.
