2 Samuel 20:6-8

6And David said to 1Abishai, “Now Sheba the son of Bichri will do us more harm than Absalom; 2take your lord’s servants and pursue him, so that he does not find for himself fortified cities and escape from our sight.”

7So Joab’s men went out after him, 3along with the Cherethites, the Pelethites, and all the warriors; and they left Jerusalem to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.

8When they were at the large stone which is in 4Gibeon, Amasa came 5to meet them. Now Joab was dressed in his military attire, and over it he had a belt with a sword in its sheath strapped on at his waist; and as he went forward, it fell out.
