6 And David said to aAbishai, “Now Sheba the son of Bichri will do us more harm than Absalom. Take byour lord’s servants and pursue him, lest he find for himself fortified cities, and escape us.”
7 So Joab’s men, with the aCherethites, the Pelethites, and ball the mighty men, went out after him. And they went out of Jerusalem to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.
8 When they were at the large stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came before them. Now Joab was dressed in battle armor; on it was a belt with a sword fastened in its sheath at his hips; and as he was going forward, it fell out.
9 Then Joab said to Amasa, “Are you in health, my brother?” aAnd Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.
10 But Amasa did not notice the sword that was in Joab’s hand. And ahe struck him with it bin the stomach, and his entrails poured out on the ground; and he did not strike him again. Thus he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba the son of Bichri.
