2 Samuel 20:3-5

3When David came to his palace in Jerusalem, he took the ten concubines  he had left to look after the palace and put them in a house under guard. He provided for them but no longer slept with them. So they lived like widows in confinement until they died.

4The king told Amasa, “Call the people of Judah together for me, and in three days be here yourself.”

5Amasa went to call Judah together, but he took longer to do it than David had given him.
