2 Samuel


  • |2 Samuel 20:11| One of Joab’s young men had stood over Amasa saying, “Whoever favors Joab and whoever is for David, follow Joab!”

  • |2 Samuel 20:12| Now Amasa was writhing in his blood in the middle of the highway, and the man had seen that all the people stopped. So he moved Amasa from the highway to the field and threw a garment over him because he realized that all those who encountered Amasa were stopping.

  • |2 Samuel 20:13| When he was removed from the highway, all the men passed by and followed Joab to pursue Sheba son of Bichri.

  • |2 Samuel 20:14| Sheba passed through all the tribes of Israel to Abel of Beth-maacah. All the Berites 3 came together and followed him.

  • |2 Samuel 20:15| Joab’s troops came and besieged Sheba in Abel of Beth-maacah. They built an assault ramp against the outer wall of the city. While all the troops with Joab were battering the wall to make it collapse,

  • |2 Samuel 20:16| a wise woman called out from the city, “Listen! Listen! Please tell Joab to come here and let me speak with him.”

  • |2 Samuel 20:17| When he had come near her, the woman asked, “Are you Joab?” “I am,” he replied. “Listen to the words of your servant,” she said to him. He answered, “I’m listening.”

  • |2 Samuel 20:18| She said, “In the past they used to say, ‘Seek counsel in Abel,’ and that’s how they settled disputes.

  • |2 Samuel 20:19| I am a peaceful person, one of the faithful in Israel, but you’re trying to destroy a city that is like a mother in Israel. Why would you devour the LORD’s inheritance?”

  • |2 Samuel 20:20| Joab protested: “Never! I do not want to destroy!
