David then called one of the attendants and said to him, “Come, strike him down”; so he struck him and he died.

See the chapter Copy

The wicked make empty profits, but those who sow justice have a sure reward.

He frustrates the plans of the cunning, so that their hands achieve no success;

The king then gave the order to Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, who went out and struck him dead. And the royal power was established in Solomon’s hand.

Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, went back, struck him down and killed him; he was buried in his house in the wilderness.

Then King Solomon sent Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, who struck him dead.

Then he said to his firstborn, Jether, “Go, kill them.” But the boy did not draw his sword, for he was afraid, for he was still a boy.
