25 Abʹsa·lom put A·maʹsa+ in charge of the army in place of Joʹab;+ A·maʹsa was the son of a man named Ithʹra the Israelite, who had relations with Abʹi·gail+ the daughter of Naʹhash, the sister of Ze·ruʹiah, Joʹab’s mother.

13 And you should say to A·maʹsa,+ ‘Are you not my own bone and flesh? So may God do to me and add to it if you will not become my army chief from now on instead of Joʹab.’”+

17 Abʹi·gail gave birth to A·maʹsa,+ and the father of A·maʹsa was Jeʹther the Ishʹma·el·ite.
