26 And the sons of Coriantumr, in the fourth year, did beat Shared, and did obtain the kingdom again unto their father.
27 Now there began to be a war upon all the face of the land, every man with his band, fighting for that which he desired.
28 And there were robbers, and in fine, all manner of wickedness upon all the face of the land.
29 And it came to pass that Coriantumr was exceeding angry with Shared, and he went against him with his armies to battle; and they did meet in great anger; and they did meet in the valley of Gilgal; and the battle became exceeding sore.
30 And it came to pass that Shared fought against him for the space of three days.
31 And it came to pass that Coriantumr beat him, and did pursue him until he came to the plains of Heshlon.
32 And it came to pass that Shared gave him battle again upon the plains; and behold he did beat Coriantumr, and drove him back again to the valley of Gilgal.
33 And Coriantumr gave Shared battle again in the valley of Gilgal, in which he beat Shared, and slew him.
34 And Shared wounded Coriantumr in his thigh, that he did not go to battle again for the space of two years, in which time all the people upon all the face of the land were shedding blood, and there was none to restrain them.
35 And now there began to be a great curse upon the land, because of the iniquity of the people, in which, if a man should lay his tool or his sword upon the shelf, or upon the place whether he would keep it, and behold, upon the morrow, he could not find it, so great was the curse upon the land.
36 Wherefore every man did cleave unto that which was his own, with his hands, and would not borrow, neither would he lend; and every man kept the hilt of his sword thereof in his right hand, in the defense of his property and his own life, and of his wives and children.
