Chapter 20

KJV - 2 Samuel 20:10

But Amasa took no heed to the sword that was in Joab’s hand: so he smote him therewith in the fifth rib, and shed out his bowels to the ground, and struck him not again; and he died. So Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba the son of Bichri.

But Amasa didn't pay attention to the sword Joab had. So, Joab used it to hurt Amasa in his side, spilling his insides on the ground, and didn't hurt him again; and Amasa died. Then, Joab and his brother Abishai chased after Sheba, who was Bichri's son.
