7 And Saul had a concubine, whose name was aRizpah, the daughter of Aiah. So Ishbosheth said to Abner, “Why have you bgone in to my father’s concubine?”
8 Then Abner became very angry at the words of Ishbosheth, and said, “Am I aa dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show loyalty to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman?
9 aMay God do so to Abner, and more also, if I do not do for David bas the Lord has sworn to him—
10 to transfer the kingdom from the1 house of Saul, and set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, afrom Dan to Beersheba.”
11 And he could not answer Abner another word, because he feared him.
12 Then Abner sent messengers on his behalf to David, saying, “Whose is the land?” saying also, “Make your covenant with me, and indeed my hand shall be with you to bring all Israel to you.”
