And their sisters, Zeruiah and Abigail. And the sons of Zeruiah: Abishai, and Joab, and Asahel, three.

The sons of Salma: the house of bread, and the Netophathites, Ataroth, the house of Joab, and half the Manahethites, the Zorites.

And Meonothai begat Ophrah: and Seraiah begat Joab the father of the valley of workmen; for they were artificers.

And David will say, Every one striking the Jebusites the first shall be for head and for chief. And Joab son of Zeruiah, will go up at first, and he will be for head.

And he will build the city from round about from Millo, and even round about: and Joab will revive the remainder of the city.

And Abishai, brother of Joab, he was head of the three: and he lifted up his spear against three hundred; he wounded, and to a name among the three.

And the strong ones of the forces, Asahel, brother of Joab, Elhanan son of Dodo from the house of bread,

Zelek the Ammonite, Nahami the Berothite, lifting up the utensils of Joab son of Zeruiah,

And Joab son of Zeruiah over the army; and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud, bringing to remembrance.

And David will hear, and he will send Joab and all the army of strong ones.

And Joab will see that the face of the battle Was against him, before and behind; and he will choose from all the young men in Israel, and he will set in array to meet Aram.

And Joab will draw near, and the people which are with him, before Aram to battle; and they will flee from before him.

And the sons of Ammon saw that Aram fled, and they will flee also themselves from the face of Abishai his brother, and they will come into the city. And Joab will come to Jerusalem.

And it will be at the time of the return of the year, at the time of the going forth of kings, and Joab will lead the power of the army, and he will destroy the land of the sons of Ammon, and he will come and press upon Rabbah: and David dwelt in Jerusalem. And Joab will strike Rabbah and destroy it

And David will say to Joab and to the chiefs of the people, Go number Israel from the well of the oath even to judgment, and bring to me and I shall know their number.

And Joab will say, Jehovah will add to his people as they are, a hundred times: are they not, my lord the king, all of them for servants to my lord? for what will my lord seek this? wherefore will he be for trespass to Israel?

And the word of the king was strong upon Joab. And Joab will go forth, and he will go about in all Israel, and he will come to Jerusalem.

And Joab will give the number of reviewing the people to David. And all Israel will be a thousand thousand and a hundred thousand men drawing sword: and Judah four hundred and seventy thousand men drawing sword.

And Levi and Benjamin he reviewed not in the midst of them: for the king's word was abhorred with Joab.

And all Samuel the seer consecrated, and Saul son of Kish, and Abner son of Ner, and Joab son of Zeruiah, all consecrating over the hand of Shelomith and his brethren.

The fourth for the fourth month, Asahel, brother of Joab, and Zebadiah his son after him: and for his division twenty and four thousand.

Joab son of Zeruiah began to number, and finished not, for there will be wrath upon this against Israel; and the number went not up into the Amber of the words of the days to king David.

And after Ahithophel, Jeboida son of Benaiah, and Abiathar: and the chief of the army to the king, Joab.
