Juga Yoab, anak Zeruya, dan anak buah Daud bergerak maju. Mereka saling bertemu di telaga Gibeon, lalu tinggal di sana, pihak yang satu di tepi telaga sebelah sini, dan pihak yang lain di tepi telaga sebelah sana.
Maka Yoab bin Zeruya serta dengan segala hamba Daudpun keluarlah, lalu bertemu kedua pihak dekat dengan telaga Gibeon; maka tinggallah mereka itu di sana, suatu pihak pada sebelah sana telaga itu, dan suatu pihak ada sebelah sini telaga itu.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Joab the son of Zeruiah,.... A sister of David, and this her son was general of David's army:
and the servants of David, went out; that is, his army went out from Hebron to Gibeon, which was twenty four miles d to meet that under Abner; for though he had but one tribe with him, and Ishbosheth had all the rest, yet Judah was a numerous, powerful, and warlike tribe; and besides many out of the other tribes had joined them, and, above all, God was on their side, and they had his promise to rely upon with respect to the establishment of the kingdom in the house of David, and his power and providence to trust in, and therefore went out boldly and cheerfully to meet the armies of Israel under Abner:
and met together by the pool of Gibeon; the same perhaps with the great waters in Gibeon, Jeremiah 41:12;
and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool, and the other on the other side of the pool; facing one another, and watching each other's motions.
d Bunting's Travels, p. 146.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
On the east of the hill (El-jib, the ancient Gibeon) is a copious spring, which issues in a cave excavated in the limestone rock, so as to form a large reservoir. In the trees further down are the remains of a pool or tank of considerable size (120 feet by 110 feet). This is doubtless “the pool of Gibeon.”
Sat down - i. e. halted and encamped.
