And say {H559} ye to Amasa {H6021}, Art thou not of my bone {H6106}, and of my flesh {H1320}? God {H430} do {H6213} so to me, and more {H3254} also, if thou be not captain {H8269} of the host {H6635} before {H6440} me continually {H3117} in the room {H8478} of Joab {H3097}.

And say to Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my flesh and blood? May God punish me, and ever so severely, if from this time you are not the commander of my army in place of Joab!’”

And say ye to Amasa, Art thou not my bone and my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.
