25 And A·maʹsa+ was the one whom Abʹsa·lom put in the place of Joʹab+ over the army; and A·maʹsa was the son of a man whose name was Ithʹra+ the Israelite,* who had relations with Abʹi·gail+ the daughter of Naʹhash,* the sister of Ze·ruʹiah, Joʹab’s mother.

13 And to A·maʹsa YOU should say,+ ‘Are you not my bone and my flesh? So may God do to me and so may he add to it+ if you will not become the army chief before me always instead of Joʹab.’”+
