2 Samuel 2:27-29

21st Century King James Version

²⁷ And Joab said, “As God liveth, unless thou had spoken, surely then in the morning the people would have gone up every one from following his brother.”

²⁸ So Joab blew a trumpet; and all the people stood still and pursued after Israel no more, neither fought they any more.

²⁹ And Abner and his men walked all that night through the plain, and passed over the Jordan and went through all Bithron; and they came to Mahanaim.
