Exegesis
The conditional im lo {אִם לֹא} introduces the protasis, and the apodosis atah sar-hatsava tachat Yoav {אָתָּה שַׂר־הַצָּבָא תַּחַת יוֹאָב} maintains the construct chain sar-hatsava, emphasizing hierarchical succession.
In context — 2 Samuel 19:13
And to Amasa you shall say, “Are you not my bone and my flesh ? Thus may God do to me, and thus may He add, if you do not become commander of the army in place of Joab before me all the days.”
