2 Samuel 19:12-14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹² You are my brethren, you are my bone, and my flesh, why are you the last to bring back the king?

¹³ And say ye to Amasa: Art not thou my bone, and my flesh? So do God to me and add more, if thou be not the chief captain of the army before me always in the place of Joab.

¹⁴ And be inclined the heart of all the men of Juda, as it were of one man: and they sent to the king, saying: Return thou, and all thy servants.
