2 Samuel 3:9
“God do so to Abner, and more also, if, as Yahweh has sworn to David, I don't do even so to him;”
Verse in context — 2 Samuel 3
Now Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah: and [Ishbosheth] said to Abner, "Why have you gone in to my father's concubine?
Then was Abner very angry for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, "Am I a dog's head that belongs to Judah? Today I show kindness 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 yet you charge me this day with a fault concerning this woman!
God do so to Abner, and more also, if, as Yahweh has sworn to David, I don't do even so to him;
to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.
He could not answer Abner another word, because he feared him.
