2 Samuel 19:11-13

Darby Translation

¹¹ And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak to the elders of Judah saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, to his house.

¹² Ye are my brethren, ye are my bone and my flesh; and why will ye be the last to bring back the king?

¹³ And say 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 instead of Joab.
