Howbeit he refused to turn aside: wherefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear smote him under the fifth [rib], that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place: and it came to pass, [that] as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.
Howbeit he refused {H3985} to turn aside {H5493}: wherefore Abner {H74} with the hinder end {H310} of the spear {H2595} smote {H5221} him under {H413} the fifth {H2570} rib, that the spear {H2595} came out {H3318} behind {H310} him; and he fell down {H5307} there, and died {H4191} in the same place {H8478}: and it came to pass, that as many as came {H935} to the place {H4725} where Asahel {H6214} fell down {H5307} and died {H4191} stood still {H5975}.
But he still refused to turn aside; so Avner stabbed him in the groin with the back end of the spear, so that the shaft protruded behind him. He fell down and died on the spot. Everyone who came to the place where 'Asah'el lay dead stopped there.
But Asahel refused to turn away; so Abner thrust the butt of his spear into his stomach, and it came out his back, and he fell dead on the spot. And every man paused when he came to the place where Asahel had fallen and died.
