2 Samuel2:21

21 And Abner said to him, Turn thee aside to thy right hand, or to thy left, and lay thee hold on one of the young men, and take thee his armour . But Asahel would not turn aside from following of him.

If thou art ambitious to get a Trophy or Mark of thy Valour, desist from me who am an old and experienced Captain, and go to some young and raw Soldier, try thy Skill upon him, and take away his Arms from him.

Marginal references: Or, spoil.
