Abner speaks with the elders of Israel and comes to David to Hebron

아브넬이 이스라엘 장로들에게 말하고 헤브론에 이르러 다윗에게 나아감

2 Samuel 3:17–21: Abner has communication with the elders of Israel, saying, “In times past, you sought for David to be king over you. Now then do it! For the LORD has spoken of David, saying, ‘By the hand of my servant David, I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.’” Abner also speaks in the ears of Benjamin; and Abner goes also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel and to the whole house of Benjamin. So Abner comes to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. David makes Abner and the men who were with him a feast. Abner says to David, “I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may reign over all that your soul desires.” David sends Abner away; and he goes in peace. At 3:17 the Korean Revised Version reads 여러번, many times, where WEB has “In times past”.
