“Moreover you know also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, even what he did to the two captains of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner and to Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war on his sash that was around his waist and in his sandals that were on his feet.

ગુજરાતી1 રાજાઓ ૨:૫
સરુયાના દીકરા યોઆબે મને જે કર્યું, એટલે કે તેણે ઇઝરાયલનાં સૈન્યના બે અધિપતિઓને, એટલે નેરના દીકરા આબ્નેરને તથા યેથેરના દીકરા અમાસાને મારી નાખ્યા હતા, તે તું જાણે છે. તેણે શાંતિના સમયમાં યુદ્ધના જેવું લોહી પાડીને તે યુદ્ધનું લોહી પોતાની કમરે બાંધેલા કમરબંધને તથા પોતાના પગમાંનાં પગરખાંને લગાડ્યું.
हिन्दी1 राजाओं २:५
“फिर तू स्वयं जानता है, कि सरूयाह के पुत्र योआब ने मुझसे क्या-क्या किया! अर्थात् उसने नेर के पुत्र अब्नेर, और येतेर के पुत्र अमासा, इस्राएल के इन दो सेनापतियों से क्या-क्या किया। उसने उन दोनों को घात किया, और मेल के समय युद्ध का लहू बहाकर उससे अपनी कमर का कमरबन्द और अपने पाँवों की जूतियाँ भिगो दीं।
