2 Samuel 20:10

Amasa tidak awas terhadap pedang yang ada di tangan Yoab itu; Yoab menikam pedang itu ke perutnya, sehingga isi perutnya tertumpah ke tanah. Tidak usah dia ditikamnya dua kali, sebab ia sudah mati. Lalu Yoab dan Abisai, adiknya, terus mengejar Seba bin Bikri.

Maka tiada diindahkan Amasa pedang yang pada tangan Yoab itu, maka ditikam Yoab akan dia kena perutnya, sehingga keluarlah isi perutnya lalu tertumpah ke bumi; maka tiada ditikamnya akan dia sampai dua kali, karena sudah mati ia. Setelah itu maka pergilah Yoab dan Abisai, adiknya, mengusir Seba bin Bikhri itu.

Contextual Overview

4 Then saide the king to Amasa: Call me the men of Iuda together within three dayes, and be thou here also. 5 And so Amasa went to gather ye men of Iuda together, but taryed longer the the time which he had appoynted him. 6 And Dauid saide to Abisai: Now shal Seba the sonne of Bichri do vs more harme then did Absalom: Take thou therefore thy lordes seruauntes, and folowe after him, lest he get him walled cities, and escape vs. 7 And there went out after him Ioabs men, and the Cerethites, and the Phelethites, and all the mightyest men: And they departed out of Hierusalem, to folow after Seba the sonne of Bichri. 8 And when they were at ye great stone in Gibeon, Amasa went before them: And Ioabs garment that he had about him, was girde vnto him, & he had gyrded thereon a sword, which was ioyned fast to his loynes in a sheath, that as he went it fell sometime out. 9 And Ioab saide to Amasa: Art thou in health my brother? And Ioab toke Amasa by ye beard with the right hand, to kisse him. 10 But Amasa toke no heede to the sword that was in Ioabs hand: for therewith he smote him in the fyst [rybbe] & shed out his bowels to the grounde, and thrust at him no more, & he dyed: So Ioab and Abisai his brother folowed after Seba the sonne of Bichri. 11 And one of Ioabs men stoode by him, and saide: He that beareth any fauour to Ioab, or good will to Dauid, let him go after Ioab. 12 And Amasa wallowed in blood in the middes of the way: And when the man sawe that all the people stoode still, he remoued Amasa out of the way into the fielde, and cast a cloth vpon him, because he saw that euery one that came by him stoode still. 13 And assoone as he was remoued out of the way, al the people went after Ioab, to folow after Seba the sonne of Bichri.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Amasa took no heed to the sword that [was] in Joab's hand,.... In his left hand, for with his right hand he took him by the beard; he might see the sword drop out of the scabbard, and Joab take it up, which he supposed he did in order to put it into its sheath again, having no suspicion of his wicked design, and therefore not at all upon his guard to prevent it:

so he smote him therewith in the fifth [rib]; in the same place where Abner smote Asahel, and Joab Abner; :- and

:-: he must strike him, as some observe, on the left side, because he was embracing him; and the stroke must be deadly, because he struck him in the pericardium, which surrounds the heart round with water, to refrigerate it; for the lower part of the heart reaches to the fifth rib; see John 19:34 u:

and shed out his bowels to the ground; which fell out through the incision made by the sword:

and struck him not again: he gave him such a home thrust, there was no need to repeat it, he dispatched him at once:

and he died; and thus, though he was pardoned by David, and promoted to honour by him, yet the providence of God would not suffer him to go unpunished for joining with Absalom in an unnatural rebellion against his uncle:

so Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba the son of Bichri: for Amasa being slain, Joab without any ceremony reassumed his post as general, and, with his brother Abishai under him, made all the haste they could in pursuit of the rebel.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 20:10. In the fifth rib — I believe חמש chomesh, which we render here and elsewhere the fifth rib, means any part of the abdominal region. The Septuagint translate it την ψοαν, the groin; the Targum, the right side of the thigh, i.e., (the phrase of the Targumist being interpreted,) the privy parts. That it means some part of the abdominal region, is evident from what follows, And shed out his bowels to the ground. It appears from this that, in plain English, he ripped up his belly.
