Truce in Battle

Source: Nav

2 Samuel 2:26–31 Then Abner called out to Joab: “Must the sword devour forever? Do you not realize that this will only end in bitterness? How long before you tell the troops to stop pursuing their brothers?” / “As surely as God lives,” Joab replied, “if you had not spoken up, the troops would have continued pursuing their brothers until morning.” / So Joab blew the ram’s horn, and all the troops stopped; they no longer pursued Israel or continued to fight.
