2 Samuel 20:1-9

1And there happenedH7122 to be there a base fellow, whose nameH8034 was ShebaH7652, the sonH1121 of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he blewH8628 the trumpetH7782, and saidH559, We have no portionH2506 in DavidH1732, neither have we inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: every manH376 to his tentsH168, O IsraelH3478. 2So all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 wentH5927 up from following DavidH1732, and followed ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of Bichri; but the menH376 of JudahH3063 clave unto their kingH4428, from the JordanH3383 even to JerusalemH3389.

3And DavidH1732 cameH935 to his houseH1004 at JerusalemH3389; and the kingH4428 tookH3947 the tenH6235 womenH802 his concubinesH6370, whom he had left to keepH8104 the houseH1004, and putH5414 them in ward, and providedH3557 them with sustenance, but wentH935 not in unto them. So they were shut up unto the dayH3117 of their deathH4194, living in widowhoodH491.

4Then saidH559 the kingH4428 to AmasaH6021, Call me the menH376 of JudahH3063 togetherH2199 within threeH7969 daysH3117, and be thou hereH6311 present. 5So AmasaH6021 went to callH2199 the men of JudahH3063 togetherH2199; but he tarried longer than the set timeH4150 which he had appointedH4150 him. 6And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52, NowH6258 will ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of Bichri do us moreH4480 harm than did AbsalomH53: takeH3947 thou thy lord’sH113 servantsH5650, and pursueH7291 after him, lestH6435 he get him fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892, and escape out of our sight. 7And there wentH3318 out after him Joab’s menH376, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the mightyH1368 menH376; and they wentH3318 out of JerusalemH3389, to pursueH7291 after ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of Bichri. 8WhenH834 they were at the greatH1419 stoneH68 which is in GibeonH1391, AmasaH6021 cameH935 to meet them. And JoabH3097 was girdedH2296 with his apparel of war that he had put on, and thereon was a girdle with a swordH2719 fastened upon his loinsH4975 in the sheathH8593 thereof; and as he wentH3318 forthH3318 it fellH5307 out. 9And JoabH3097 saidH559 to AmasaH6021, Is it well with thee, my brotherH251? And JoabH3097 tookH270 AmasaH6021 by the beardH2206 with his rightH3225 handH3027 to kiss him.
