31. 2 Samuel 20:20יוֹאָ֖ב · Joab
    “Far be it!” Joab declared. “Far be it from me to swallow up or destroy!
32. 2 Samuel 20:21יוֹאָ֔ב
    That is not the case. But a man named Sheba son of Bichri, from the hill country of Ephraim, has lifted up his hand against the king, against David. Deliver him alone, and I will depart from the city.” “Look,” the woman replied, “his head will be thrown to you over the wall.”
33. 2 Samuel 20:22 (2×)יוֹאָ֔ב · Joab; וְיוֹאָ֛ב · And Joab
    Then the woman went to all the people with her wise counsel, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bichri and threw it to Joab. So he blew the ram’s horn and his men dispersed from the city, each to his own home. And Joab returned to the king in Jerusalem.

39. 2 Samuel 24:3יוֹאָ֜ב · But Joab
    But Joab replied to the king, “May the LORD your God multiply the troops a hundred times over, and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king want to do such a thing?”
