Context
6And David said to Abishai, Now shall Sheba the son of Bichri do us more harm than Absalom: take thou thy lord’s servants, and pursue after him, lest he get him fenced cities, and escape us.
7And there went out after him Joab’s men, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and all the mighty men: and they went out of Jerusalem, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri.
8When they at the great stone which in Gibeon, Amasa went before them. And Joab’s garment that he had put on was girded unto him, and upon it a girdle a sword fastened upon his loins in the sheath thereof; and as he went forth it fell out.
9And Joab said to Amasa, thou in health, my brother? And Joab took Amasa by the beard with the right hand to kiss him.
10But Amasa took no heed to the sword that in Joab’s hand: so he smote him therewith in the fifth and shed out his bowels to the ground, and struck him not again; and he died. So Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba the son of Bichri.
11And one of Joab’s men stood by him, and said, He that favoureth Joab, and he that for David, after Joab.
12And Amasa wallowed in blood in the midst of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people stood still, he removed Amasa out of the highway into the field, and cast a cloth upon him, when he saw that every one that came by him stood still.
