18 And the three sons of Zeruiah were there, Joab, Abishai, and Asahel. Now Asahel was as swift of foot as a wild gazelle.

27 And when Abner returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside into the midst of the gate to speak with him privately, and there he struck him in the stomach, so that he died, ^mfor the blood of Asahel his brother.

16 And their sisters were ^jZeruiah and ^kAbigail. The sons of Zeruiah: ^lAbishai, ^mJoab, and ⁿAsahel, three.

7 Asahel the brother of Joab was fourth, for the fourth month, and his son Zebadiah after him; in his division were 24,000.
