Dan kepada Amasa haruslah kamu katakan: Bukankah engkau darah dagingku? Beginilah kiranya Allah menghukum aku, bahkan lebih lagi dari pada itu, jika engkau tidak tetap menjadi panglimaku menggantikan Yoab."
Dan kepada Amasa hendaklah kamu katakan ini: Bukankah engkau sedaging darah dengan aku? Demikianlah perbuatan Allah akan daku dan dipertambahkannya pula, jikalau tiada engkau menjadi panglima perang di hadapanku pada selama-lamanya akan ganti Yoab itu.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And say ye to Amasa,.... Who was the general of Absalom's army, and who might fear he should never be pardoned, whoever was, and looked upon his case as desperate; who had led on the army with Absalom against the king's threes, and fought them:
[art] thou not of my bone, and of my flesh? nearly related to him, being his sister's son:
God do so to me, and more also: than he had done to Absalom; or he imprecates the greatest evil upon himself that could be thought of or named:
if thou be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of Joab; signifying that he would not only pardon the treason he had been guilty of, but raise him to the highest post in the army; and to assure him of it, of which he might be doubtful, considering what he had done to merit his displeasure, he makes this oath or imprecation. Joab had got his ill will by many instances, as by the murder of Abner, and now by slaying Absalom against his orders; and by his rude and insolent behaviour to him when lamenting the death of his son; he wanted to be rid of him, and now, having an opportunity of putting a valiant man into his place, and thereby attaching him to his interest, he was determined to make use of it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Of my bone ... - Render as in preceding verse, “art thou not my bone and my flesh?” It is curious to note how the phrase is used in 2 Samuel 5:1 of common descent from Israel, in 2 Samuel 19:12 of the closer kindred of the tribe of Judah, and in this verse of the yet nearer kindred between David and Amasa his sister’s son.
Captain ... in the room of Joab - It is very plain that David felt the weight of Joab’s overbearing influence to be very oppressive (compare 2 Samuel 19:22; 2 Samuel 3:39; 2 Samuel 16:10). He was, at this time, very angry with Joab for killing Absalom; and so, thinking it of vital importance to win over Amasa and the army of Judah, he did not scruple to offer him Joab’s high post.
