In this way, God punished Abimelech for the evil he had done against his father by murdering his seventy brothers.God also punished the men of Shechem for all their evil. So the curse of Jotham son of Gideon was fulfilled.

The Lord will repay him for the murders of two men who were more righteous and better than he. For my father knew nothing about the deaths of Abner son of Ner, commander of the army of Israel, and of Amasa son of Jether, commander of the army of Judah.May their blood be on Joab and his descendants forever, and may the Lord grant peace forever to David, his descendants, his dynasty, and his throne.”

When David heard about it, he declared,“ I vow by the Lord that I and my kingdom are forever innocent of this crime against Abner son of Ner.Joab and his family are the guilty ones. May the family of Joab be cursed in every generation with a man who has open sores or leprosy or who walks on crutches or dies by the sword or begs for food!”

But I seized him and killed him at Ziklag. That’s the reward I gave him for his news!How much more should I reward evil men who have killed an innocent man in his own house and on his own bed? Shouldn’t I hold you responsible for his blood and rid the earth of you?”So David ordered his young men to kill them, and they did. They cut off their hands and feet and hung their bodies beside the pool in Hebron. Then they took Ishbosheth’s head and buried it in Abner’s tomb in Hebron.
