Joab flees to the LORD’s Tent and holds onto the horns of the altar, and Benaiah falls on him and kills him

여호와의 장막으로 도망하여 단 뿔을 잡은 요압을 브나야가 쳐죽임

1 Kings 2:28–35: this news comes to Joab; for Joab had followed Adonijah, although he didn’t follow Absalom. Joab flees to the LORD’s Tent, and holds onto the horns of the altar. King Solomon is told, “Joab has fled to the LORD’s Tent; and behold, he is by the altar.” Then Solomon sends Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, fall on him.” Benaiah comes to the LORD’s Tent, and says to him, “The king says, ‘Come out!’” He says, “No; but I will die here.” Benaiah brings the king word again, saying, “This is what Joab said, and this is how he answered me.” The king says to him, “Do as he has said, and fall on him, and bury him, that you may take away the blood, which Joab shed without cause, from me and from my father’s house. The LORD will return his blood on his own head, because he fell on two men more righteous and better than he, and killed them with the sword, and my father David didn’t know it: Abner the son of Ner, captain of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the army of Judah. So their blood will return on the head of Joab and on the head of his offspring forever. But for David, for his offspring, for his house, and for his throne, there will be peace forever from the LORD.” Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada goes up and falls on him, and kills him; and he is buried in his own house in the wilderness. The king puts Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his place over the army; and the king puts Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar. The Korean Revised Version gives the reason after the flight at 2:28 and adds 다윗을 떠나, leaving David; has 혹이, someone, tell King Solomon at 2:29; reads 요압이 이리이리 내게 대답하더이다 at 2:30 (이리이리, thus and thus); names Abner and Amasa before “my father David didn’t know it” at 2:32; and names Joab at 2:32 (요압의 피) and 2:35 (요압을 대신하여).

Current wording: 1 Kings 2:28–35: this news comes to Joab; for Joab had followed Adonijah, although he didn’t follow Absalom. Joab flees to the LORD’s Tent, and holds onto the horns of the altar. King Solomon is told, “Joab has fled to the LORD’s Tent; and behold, he is by the altar.” Then Solomon sends Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, fall on him.” Benaiah comes to the LORD’s Tent, and says to him, “The king says, ‘Come out!’” He says, “No; but I will die here.” Benaiah brings the king word again, saying, “This is what Joab said, and this is how he answered me.” The king says to him, “Do as he has said, and fall on him, and bury him, that you may take away the blood, which Joab shed without cause, from me and from my father’s house. The LORD will return his blood on his own head, because he fell on two men more righteous and better than he, and killed them with the sword, and my father David didn’t know it: Abner the son of Ner, captain of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the army of Judah. So their blood will return on the head of Joab and on the head of his offspring forever. But for David, for his offspring, for his house, and for his throne, there will be peace forever from the LORD.” Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada goes up and falls on him, and kills him; and he is buried in his own house in the wilderness. The king puts Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his place over the army; and the king puts Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar. The Korean Revised Version gives the reason after the flight at 2:28 and adds 다윗을 떠나, leaving David; has 혹이, someone, tell King Solomon at 2:29; reads 요압이 이리이리 내게 대답하더이다 at 2:30 (이리이리, thus and thus); names Abner and Amasa before “my father David didn’t know it” at 2:32; and names Joab at 2:32 (요압의 피) and 2:35 (요압을 대신하여).
