25And the children of Benjamin who followed Abner gather themselves together, and they formed themselves into one body, and stood on the top of a hill.
26And Abner called Joab, and said, Shall the sword devour perpetually? knowest thou not that it will be bitter at last? How long then wilt thou refuse to tell the people to turn from following our brethren?
— 2 Samuel 2:27 —
28And Joab sounded the trumpet, and all the people departed, and did not pursue after Israel, and did not fight any longer.
29And Abner and his men departed at evening, and went all that night, and crossed over Jordan, and went along the whole adjacent country, and they come to the camp.
