2 Samuel 20:4-6

4Then the king said to 1Amasa, “Call out the men of Judah for me within three days, and be present here yourself.”

5So Amasa went to call out the men of Judah, but he 2delayed longer than the set time which he had appointed him.

6And David said to 3Abishai, “Now Sheba the son of Bichri will do us more harm than Absalom; 4take your lord’s servants and pursue him, so that he does not find for himself fortified cities and escape from our sight.”
