King David follows Abner’s bier and laments for him

다윗왕이 아브넬의 상여를 따라가고 그를 위하여 애가를 지음

2 Samuel 3:31–35: David says to Joab and to all the people who were with him, “Tear your clothes, and clothe yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn in front of Abner.” King David follows the bier. They bury Abner in Hebron; and the king lifts up his voice and weeps at Abner’s grave; and all the people weep. The king laments for Abner, and says, “Should Abner die as a fool dies? Your hands weren’t bound, and your feet weren’t put into fetters. As a man falls before the children of iniquity, so you fell.” All the people weep again over him. All the people come to urge David to eat bread while it is yet day; but David swears, saying, “God do so to me, and more also, if I taste bread or anything else, until the sun goes down.” At 3:32 the Korean Revised Version runs on from King David of 3:31 (아브넬을 헤브론에 장사하고 … 소리를 높여 울고), and at 3:35 it has the people come 석양에, at evening.
