1-Samuel 17:55

Toen Saul David de Filistijn tegemoet had zien gaan, had hij tot de krijgsoverste Abner gezegd: Wiens zoon is toch deze jongeling, Abner? En Abner had geantwoord: Zo waar gij leeft, o koning, ik weet het niet.

¶ And when Saul saw David go forth against the Philistine, he said unto Abner, the captain of the host, Abner, whose son is this youth? And Abner said, As thy soul liveth, O king, I cannot tell.
