In context

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

14 Abner said to Joab, “Please let the young men arise and compete before us!” Joab said, “Let them arise!”

15 Then they arose and went over by number: twelve for Benjamin and for Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of David’s servants.

16 They each caught his opponent by the head and thrust his sword in his fellow’s side; so they fell down together. Therefore that place in Gibeon was called Helkath Hazzurim.

17 The battle was very severe that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before David’s servants.
