2 Samuel 20:11 in context

  1. 9Joab said to Amasa, “Is it well with you, my brother?” Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.
  2. 10But Amasa took no heed to the sword that was in Joab’s hand. So he struck him with it in the body, and shed out his bowels to the ground, and didn’t strike him again; and he died. Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba the son of Bichri.
  3. 11One of Joab’s young men stood by him, and said, “He who favors Joab, and he who is for David, let him follow Joab!”
  4. 12Amasa lay wallowing in his blood in the middle of the highway. When the man saw that all the people stood still, he carried Amasa out of the highway into the field, and cast a garment over him, when he saw that everyone who came by him stood still.
  5. 13When he was removed out of the highway, all the people went on after Joab, to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.
