6And DavidH1732 saidH559 to 1AbishaiH52, “NowH6258 ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075 will doH7489 us moreH4480 harmH7489 thanH4480 AbsalomH53; 2takeH3947 your lord’sH113 servantsH5650 and pursueH7291 him, soH6435 that he does not findH4672 for himself fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892 and escapeH5337 from our sightH5869.”

7So Joab’sH3097 menH376 wentH3318 out afterH310 him, 3along with the CherethitesH3774 and the PelethitesH6432 and allH3605 the mightyH1368 menH1368; and they wentH3318 out from JerusalemH3389 to pursueH7291 ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075.

8When they were at the largeH1419 stoneH68 whichH834 is in 4GibeonH1391, AmasaH6021 cameH935 5to meetH6440 them. Now JoabH3097 was 6dressedH2296H3830 in his military attireH3830H4055, and overH5921 it was a beltH2290 with a swordH2719 in its sheathH8593 fastenedH6775 at his waistH4975; and as he wentH3318 forwardH3318, it fellH5307 out.
