  • Newari: “Amasa was not aware that Joab had a dagger in his hand. Joab pierced his stomach with the dagger and [his] intestines came out and dropped to the ground. He did not need to pierce again for he was already dead. Then Joab and his younger brother Abishai went to pursue Sheba son of Bichri.” (Source: Newari Back Translation)
  • Hiligaynon: “But Amasa did- not -notice the sword on the left hand of Joab. Joab stabbed him in the stomach and his intestines spilled-out on the ground. He died right-away, so he was- not -stabbed again by Joab. Then Joab and his sibling Abishai continued to pursue Sheba.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
  • English: “But Amasa did not see that Joab was holding another dagger in his other hand. And Joab stabbed it into Amasa’s belly, and his insides spilled out onto the ground. Amasa died immediately; Joab did not need to stab him again. Then Joab and his brother Abishai continued to pursue Sheba.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
