Dixitque Abisai ad David : Conclusit Deus inimicum tuum hodie in manus tuas : nunc ergo perfodiam eum lancea in terra semel, et secundo opus non erit.
Vulgate
καὶ εἶπεν Ἀβεισὰ πρὸς Δαυείδ Ἀπέκλεισεν σήμερον Κύριος τὸν ἐχθρόν σου εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου· καὶ νῦν πατάξω αὐτὸν τῷ δόρατι εἰς τὴν γῆν ἅπαξ, καὶ οὐ δευτερώσω αὐτῷ.
LXX
Then said Abishai to David, God hath delivered up thine enemy into thy hand this day: now therefore let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spear to the earth at one stroke, and I will not smite him the second time.
