1 SAMUEL 26:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And David cried to the people, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, Answerest thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and said, Who art thou that criest to the king?”
And David called out to the army, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, 'Abner, will you not answer?' Then Abner answered, 'Who are you that calls to the king?' — David's public call ('vayyiqrāʾ dāwīd ʾel-hāʿām') pierces the night, summoning a response from Abner. The question 'Who are you?' ('mî-ʾattāh') invites Abner to recognize the sovereign voice that has breached his commander's authority.
