Jonathan, David’s uncle, was a counselor, being a man of understanding and a scribe. He and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni attended the king’s sons.
This is an account of David’s mighty men: Jashobeam, a Hachmonite, was chief of the three. He wielded his spear against 300 whom he killed at one time.
And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, struck him down.
But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David’s brother. And Jonadab was a very crafty man.
All these were stewards of King David’s property.
Ahithophel was the king’s counselor, and Hushai the Archite was the king’s friend.
And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David’s brother, struck him down.
