And the battle was very sore that day: and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before the servants of David.

The battle that day was extremely fierce, and Abner and the men of Israel were defeated by David’s soldiers.

And the battle was very fierce that day. And Abner and the men of Israel were beaten before the servants of David.

That day the battle was very severe, and Abner and the men of Israel were defeated by the servants of David.

The battle that day was very fierce, and Abner and the Israelites were defeated by David’s men.

So there was a very fierce battle that day, and Abner and the men of Israel were beaten before the servants of David.

A fierce battle followed that day, and Abner and the men of Israel were defeated by the forces of David.

The battle was very severe that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before David’s servants.
