All the people of Judah and half the people of Israel escorted the king. 42 Soon, all the men of Israel came to the king and asked, "Why did our brothers, the men of Judah, steal you away and bring the king and his household across the Jordan, along with all your men?" 43 The men of Judah responded to the men of Israel, "The king is closely related to us. Why are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten any of the king’s provisions, or have we taken anything for ourselves?" 44 Then the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, "We have ten shares in the king, and in David too we have more claim than you. So why did you treat us with contempt? Were we not the first to speak of bringing the king back?" But the words of the men of Judah were harsher than those of the men of Israel. 1 Now a troublemaker named Sheba, son of Bichri, a Benjamite, happened to be there. He blew the trumpet and declared, "We have no share in David, no inheritance in Jesse's son. Every man to his tent, Israel!" 2 So all the men of Israel deserted David to follow Sheba, son of Bichri. But the men of Judah stayed loyal to their king, from the Jordan all the way to Jerusalem. 3 When David returned to his palace in Jerusalem, he took the ten concubines he had left to take care of the house and placed them in confinement, providing for them but no longer going to them. They remained confined like widows until the day of their death. 4 Then the king said to Amasa, "Summon the men of Judah to come to me within three days, and you must be here as well." 5 But when Amasa went to summon Judah, he took longer than the time the king had set for him. 6 So David said to Abishai, "Now Sheba, son of Bichri, will do us more harm than Absalom did. Take your lord's servants and pursue him quickly, or he may find fortified cities and escape from us." 7 Joab's men, along with the Cherethites, the Pelethites, and all the mighty warriors, marched out from Jerusalem to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri. 8 When they were at the large stone in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. Joab was wearing his military tunic, and strapped over it, at his waist, was a belt with a dagger in its sheath. As he stepped forward, it fell out. 9 Joab said to Amasa, "How are you, my brother?" Then Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him. 10 Amasa was not on guard against the dagger in Joab’s hand, and Joab stabbed him in the stomach. His intestines spilled to the ground, and he died without Joab striking him again. Then Joab and his brother Abishai pursued Sheba the son of Bichri. 11 One of Joab's men stood by Amasa and said, "Whoever is loyal to Joab and whoever is for David, follow Joab!" 12 Amasa lay wallowing in his blood in the middle of the road. When the man saw that all the troops stopped, he dragged Amasa from the road into a field and threw a garment over him because everyone who came by stopped. 13 After he was removed from the road, everyone continued on after Joab to pursue Sheba, son of Bichri.
