And there happenedH7122 to be there a manH376 of BelialH1100, whose nameH8034 was ShebaH7652, the sonH1121 of BichriH1075, a BenjamiteH1145: and he blewH8628 a trumpetH7782, and saidH559, We have no partH2506 in DavidH1732, neither have we inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: everyH376 manH376 to his tentsH168, O IsraelH3478.
So every manH376 of IsraelH3478 went upH5927 from afterH310 DavidH1732, and followedH310 ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075: but the menH376 of JudahH3063 claveH1692 unto their kingH4428, from JordanH3383 even to JerusalemH3389.
And DavidH1732 cameH935 to his houseH1004 at JerusalemH3389; and the kingH4428 tookH3947 the tenH6235 womenH802 his concubinesH6370, whom he had leftH3240 to keepH8104 the houseH1004, and putH5414 them in wardH4931, and fedH3557 them, but went not inH935 unto them. So they were shut upH6887 unto the dayH3117 of their deathH4191, livingH2424 in widowhoodH491. {ward: Heb. an house of ward} {shut…: Heb. bound} {living…: Heb. in widowhood of life}
Then saidH559 the kingH4428 to AmasaH6021, AssembleH2199 me the menH376 of JudahH3063 within threeH7969 daysH3117, and be thou here presentH5975. {Assemble: Heb. Call}
So AmasaH6021 wentH3212 to assembleH2199 the men of JudahH3063: but he tarried longerH309+H3186 than the set timeH4150 which he had appointedH3259 him. {Assemble: Heb. Call}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52, Now shall ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075 do us more harmH3415 than did AbsalomH53: takeH3947 thou thy lord'sH113 servantsH5650, and pursueH7291 afterH310 him, lest he getH4672 him fencedH1219 citiesH5892, and escapeH5337 usH5869. {escape…: Heb. deliver himself from our eyes}
And there went outH3318 afterH310 him Joab'sH3097 menH582, and the CherethitesH3774, and the PelethitesH6432, and all the mighty menH1368: and they went outH3318 of JerusalemH3389, to pursueH7291 afterH310 ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075.
When they were at the greatH1419 stoneH68 which is in GibeonH1391, AmasaH6021 wentH935 beforeH6440 them. And Joab'sH3097 garmentH4055 that he had put onH3830 was girdedH2296 unto him, and upon it a girdleH2289 with a swordH2719 fastenedH6775 upon his loinsH4975 in the sheathH8593 thereof; and as he went forthH3318 it fell outH5307.
And JoabH3097 saidH559 to AmasaH6021, Art thou in healthH7965, my brotherH251? And JoabH3097 tookH270 AmasaH6021 by the beardH2206 with the rightH3225 handH3027 to kissH5401 him.
But AmasaH6021 took no heedH8104 to the swordH2719 that was in Joab'sH3097 handH3027: so he smoteH5221 him therewith in the fifthH2570 rib, and shed outH8210 his bowelsH4578 to the groundH776, and struck him not againH8138; and he diedH4191. So JoabH3097 and AbishaiH52 his brotherH251 pursuedH7291 afterH310 ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075. {struck…: Heb. doubled not his stroke}
And oneH376 of Joab'sH3097 menH5288 stoodH5975 by him, and saidH559, HeH4310 that favourethH2654 JoabH3097, and he that is for DavidH1732, let him go afterH310 JoabH3097.
And AmasaH6021 wallowedH1556 in bloodH1818 in the midstH8432 of the highwayH4546. And when the manH376 sawH7200 that all the peopleH5971 stood stillH5975, he removedH5437 AmasaH6021 out of the highwayH4546 into the fieldH7704, and castH7993 a clothH899 upon him, when he sawH7200 that every one that cameH935 by him stood stillH5975.
When he was removedH3014 out of the highwayH4546, all the peopleH376 went onH5674 afterH310 JoabH3097, to pursueH7291 afterH310 ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075.
And he wentH5674 through all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 unto AbelH59, and to BethmaachahH1038, and all the BeritesH1276: and they were gathered togetherH6950+H7035, and wentH935 also afterH310 him.
And they cameH935 and besiegedH6696 him in AbelH59 of BethmaachahH1038, and they cast upH8210 a bankH5550 against the cityH5892, and it stoodH5975 in the trenchH2426: and all the peopleH5971 that were with JoabH3097 batteredH7843 the wallH2346, to throw it downH5307. {in the trench: or, against the outmost wall} {battered: Heb. marred to throw down}
Then criedH7121 a wiseH2450 womanH802 out of the cityH5892, HearH8085, hearH8085; sayH559, I pray you, unto JoabH3097, Come nearH7126 hither, that I may speakH1696 with thee.
And when he was come nearH7126 unto her, the womanH802 saidH559, Art thou JoabH3097? And he answeredH559, I am he. Then she saidH559 unto him, HearH8085 the wordsH1697 of thine handmaidH519. And he answeredH559, I do hearH8085.
Then she spakeH559, sayingH559, They were wontH1696 to speakH1696 in old timeH7223, sayingH559, They shall surelyH7592 askH7592 counsel at AbelH59: and so they endedH8552 the matter. {They were…: or, They plainly spake in the beginning, saying, Surely they will ask of Abel, and so make an end}
I am one of them that are peaceableH7999 and faithfulH539 in IsraelH3478: thou seekestH1245 to destroyH4191 a cityH5892 and a motherH517 in IsraelH3478: why wilt thou swallow upH1104 the inheritanceH5159 of the LORDH3068?
And JoabH3097 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Far be itH2486, far be itH2486 from me, that I should swallow upH1104 or destroyH7843.
The matterH1697 is not so: but a manH376 of mountH2022 EphraimH669, ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075 by nameH8034, hath lifted upH5375 his handH3027 against the kingH4428, even against DavidH1732: deliverH5414 him only, and I will departH3212 from the cityH5892. And the womanH802 saidH559 unto JoabH3097, Behold, his headH7218 shall be thrownH7993 to thee overH1157 the wallH2346. {by name: Heb. by his name}
Then the womanH802 wentH935 unto all the peopleH5971 in her wisdomH2451. And they cut offH3772 the headH7218 of ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075, and castH7993 it out to JoabH3097. And he blewH8628 a trumpetH7782, and they retiredH6327 from the cityH5892, every manH376 to his tentH168. And JoabH3097 returnedH7725 to JerusalemH3389 unto the kingH4428. {retired: Heb. were scattered}
Now JoabH3097 was over all the hostH6635 of IsraelH3478: and BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077 was over the CherethitesH3774+H3746 and over the PelethitesH6432:
And AdoramH151 was over the tributeH4522: and JehoshaphatH3092 the sonH1121 of AhiludH286 was recorderH2142: {recorder: or, remembrancer}
And ShevaH7864+H7724 was scribeH5608: and ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 were the priestsH3548:
And IraH5896 also the JairiteH2972 was a chief rulerH3548 about DavidH1732. {a chief…: or, a prince}

WisdomH2451 strengthenethH5810 the wiseH2450 more than tenH6235 mightyH7989 men which are in the cityH5892.
And there happenedH7122 to be there a manH376 of BelialH1100, whose nameH8034 was ShebaH7652, the sonH1121 of BichriH1075, a BenjamiteH1145: and he blewH8628 a trumpetH7782, and saidH559, We have no partH2506 in DavidH1732, neither have we inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: everyH376 manH376 to his tentsH168, O IsraelH3478.
And afterwardH310 when DavidH1732 heardH8085 it, he saidH559, I and my kingdomH4467 are guiltlessH5355 before the LORDH3068 forH5704 everH5769 from the bloodH1818 of AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369: {blood: Heb. bloods}
Let it restH2342 on the headH7218 of JoabH3097, and on all his father'sH1 houseH1004; and let there not failH3772 from the houseH1004 of JoabH3097 one that hath an issueH2100, or that is a leperH6879, or that leanethH2388 on a staffH6418, or that fallethH5307 on the swordH2719, or that lackethH2638 breadH3899. {fail: Heb. be cut off}
So JoabH3097 and AbishaiH52 his brotherH251 slewH2026 AbnerH74, because he had slainH4191 their brotherH251 AsahelH6214 at GibeonH1391 in the battleH4421.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to JoabH3097, and to all the peopleH5971 that were with him, RendH7167 your clothesH899, and girdH2296 you with sackclothH8242, and mournH5594 beforeH6440 AbnerH74. And kingH4428 DavidH1732 himself followedH1980+H310 the bierH4296. {bier: Heb. bed}
And they buriedH6912 AbnerH74 in HebronH2275: and the kingH4428 lifted upH5375 his voiceH6963, and weptH1058 at the graveH6913 of AbnerH74; and all the peopleH5971 weptH1058.
And the kingH4428 lamentedH6969 over AbnerH74, and saidH559, DiedH4191 AbnerH74 as a foolH5036 diethH4194?
Thy handsH3027 were not boundH631, nor thy feetH7272 putH5066 into fettersH5178: as a man fallethH5307 beforeH6440 wickedH5766 menH1121, so fellestH5307 thou. And all the peopleH5971 weptH1058 againH3254 over him. {wicked…: Heb. children of iniquity}
And when allH3605 the peopleH5971 cameH935 to causeH1262 DavidH1732 to eatH1262 meatH3899 while it was yetH5750 dayH3117, DavidH1732 swareH7650, sayingH559, So doH6213 GodH430 to me, and more alsoH3254, if I tasteH2938 breadH3899, or oughtH3972 else, tillH6440 the sunH8121 be downH935.
And all the peopleH5971 took noticeH5234 of it, and it pleasedH3190+H5869 them: as whatsoever the kingH4428 didH6213 pleasedH5869+H2896 all the peopleH5971. {pleased them: Heb. was good in their eyes}
For all the peopleH5971 and all IsraelH3478 understoodH3045 that dayH3117 that it was not of the kingH4428 to slayH4191 AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369.
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto his servantsH5650, KnowH3045 ye not that there is a princeH8269 and a great manH1419 fallenH5307 this dayH3117 in IsraelH3478?
And I am this dayH3117 weakH7390, though anointedH4886 kingH4428; and these menH582 the sonsH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 be too hardH7186 for me: the LORDH3068 shall rewardH7999 the doer of evilH6213 according to his wickednessH7451. {weak: Heb. tender}
There was a littleH6996 cityH5892, and fewH4592 menH582 within it; and there cameH935 a greatH1419 kingH4428 against it, and besiegedH5437 it, and builtH1129 greatH1419 bulwarksH4685 against it:
Now there was foundH4672 in it a poorH4542 wiseH2450 manH376, and he by his wisdomH2451 deliveredH4422 the cityH5892; yet no manH120 rememberedH2142 that same poorH4542 manH376.
Then saidH559 I, WisdomH2451 is betterH2896 than strengthH1369: nevertheless the poor man'sH4542 wisdomH2451 is despisedH959, and his wordsH1697 are not heardH8085.
The wordsH1697 of wiseH2450 men are heardH8085 in quietH5183 more than the cryH2201 of him that rulethH4910 among foolsH3684.
WisdomH2451 is betterH2896 than weaponsH3627 of warH7128: but oneH259 sinnerH2398 destroyethH6 muchH7235 goodH2896.
So JoabH3097 blewH8628 a trumpetH7782, and all the peopleH5971 stood stillH5975, and pursuedH7291 afterH310 IsraelH3478 no more, neither foughtH3898 they any moreH3254.
And DavidH1732 sentH7971 to JoabH3097, saying, SendH7971 me UriahH223 the HittiteH2850. And JoabH3097 sentH7971 UriahH223 to DavidH1732.
And when UriahH223 was comeH935 unto him, DavidH1732 demandedH7592 of him how JoabH3097 didH7965, and how the peopleH5971 didH7965, and how the warH4421 prosperedH7965. {how Joab…: Heb. of the peace of, etc}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to UriahH223, Go downH3381 to thy houseH1004, and washH7364 thy feetH7272. And UriahH223 departed outH3318 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and there followedH310 him a messH4864 of meat from the kingH4428. {followed…: Heb. went out after him}
But UriahH223 sleptH7901 at the doorH6607 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004 with all the servantsH5650 of his lordH113, and went not downH3381 to his houseH1004.
And when they had toldH5046 DavidH1732, sayingH559, UriahH223 went not downH3381 unto his houseH1004, DavidH1732 saidH559 unto UriahH223, CamestH935 thou not from thy journeyH1870? why then didst thou not go downH3381 unto thine houseH1004?
And UriahH223 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, The arkH727, and IsraelH3478, and JudahH3063, abideH3427 in tentsH5521; and my lordH113 JoabH3097, and the servantsH5650 of my lordH113, are encampedH2583 in the openH6440 fieldsH7704; shall IH589 then goH935 into mine houseH1004, to eatH398 and to drinkH8354, and to lieH7901 with my wifeH802? as thou livestH2416, and as thy soulH5315 livethH2416, I will not doH6213 this thingH1697.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to UriahH223, TarryH3427 here to dayH3117 also, and to morrowH4279 I will let thee departH7971. So UriahH223 abodeH3427 in JerusalemH3389 that dayH3117, and the morrowH4283.
And when DavidH1732 had calledH7121 him, he did eatH398 and drinkH8354 beforeH6440 him; and he made him drunkH7937: and at evenH6153 he went outH3318 to lieH7901 on his bedH4904 with the servantsH5650 of his lordH113, but went not downH3381 to his houseH1004.
And it came to pass in the morningH1242, that DavidH1732 wroteH3789 a letterH5612 to JoabH3097, and sentH7971 it by the handH3027 of UriahH223.
And he wroteH3789 in the letterH5612, sayingH559, SetH3051 ye UriahH223 in the forefrontH6440+H4136 of the hottestH2389 battleH4421, and retireH7725 ye from himH310, that he may be smittenH5221, and dieH4191. {hottest: Heb. strong} {from him: Heb. from after him}
And it came to pass, when JoabH3097 observedH8104 the cityH5892, that he assignedH5414 UriahH223 unto a placeH4725 where he knewH3045 that valiantH2428 menH582 were.
And the menH582 of the cityH5892 went outH3318, and foughtH3898 with JoabH3097: and there fellH5307 some of the peopleH5971 of the servantsH5650 of DavidH1732; and UriahH223 the HittiteH2850 diedH4191 also.
Then JoabH3097 sentH7971 and toldH5046 DavidH1732 all the thingsH1697 concerning the warH4421;
And chargedH6680 the messengerH4397, sayingH559, When thou hast made an endH3615 of tellingH1696 the mattersH1697 of the warH4421 unto the kingH4428,
And if so be that the king'sH4428 wrathH2534 ariseH5927, and he sayH559 unto thee, Wherefore approached ye so nighH5066 unto the cityH5892 when ye did fightH3898? knewH3045 ye not that they would shootH3384 from the wallH2346?
Who smoteH5221 AbimelechH40 the sonH1121 of JerubbeshethH3380? did not a womanH802 castH7993 a pieceH6400 of a millstoneH7393 upon him from the wallH2346, that he diedH4191 in ThebezH8405? why went ye nighH5066 the wallH2346? then sayH559 thou, Thy servantH5650 UriahH223 the HittiteH2850 is deadH4191 also.
