“Now you also know what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, what he did to the two commanders of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed; he also shed the blood of war in peace. And he put the blood of war on his belt about his waist, and on his sandals on his feet.

The Lord will return his blood on his own head, because he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he and killed them with the sword, while my father David did not know it: Abner the son of Ner, commander of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, commander of the army of Judah.

Abigail bore Amasa, and the father of Amasa was Jether the Ishmaelite.

The sons of Jada the brother of Shammai were Jether and Jonathan, and Jether died without sons.

The sons of Jether were Jephunneh, Pispa and Ara.
