2 Samuel 20:1-9

And there happened
<07122> (8738)

to be there a man
<0376>

of Belial
<01100>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Sheba
<07652>_,

the son
<01121>

of Bichri
<01075>_,

a Benjamite
<01145>_:

and he blew
<08628> (8799)

a trumpet
<07782>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

We have no part
<02506>

in David
<01732>_,

neither have we inheritance
<05159>

in the son
<01121>

of Jesse
<03448>_:

every
<0376>

man
<0376>

to his tents
<0168>_,

O Israel
<03478>_.

So every man
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>

went up
<05927> (8799)

from after
<0310>

David
<01732>_,

[and] followed
<0310>

Sheba
<07652>

the son
<01121>

of Bichri
<01075>_:

but the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

clave
<01692> (8804)

unto their king
<04428>_,

from Jordan
<03383>

even to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And David
<01732>

came
<0935> (8799)

to his house
<01004>

at Jerusalem
<03389>_;

and the king
<04428>

took
<03947> (8799)

the ten
<06235>

women
<0802>

[his] concubines
<06370>_,

whom he had left
<03240> (8689)

to keep
<08104> (8800)

the house
<01004>_,

and put
<05414> (8799)

them in ward
<04931>_,

and fed
<03557> (8770)

them, but went not in
<0935> (8804)

unto them. So they were shut up
<06887> (8803)

unto the day
<03117>

of their death
<04191> (8800)_,

living
<02424>

in widowhood
<0491>_.

{ward: Heb. an house of ward} {shut...: Heb. bound} {living...: Heb. in widowhood of life}

Then said
<0559> (8799)

the king
<04428>

to Amasa
<06021>_,

Assemble
<02199> (8685)

me the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

within three
<07969>

days
<03117>_,

and be thou here present
<05975> (8798)_.

{Assemble: Heb. Call}

So Amasa
<06021>

went
<03212> (8799)

to assemble
<02199> (8687)

[the men of] Judah
<03063>_:

but he tarried longer
<0309> (8799) (8675) <03186> (8799)

than the set time
<04150>

which he had appointed
<03259> (8804)

him. {Assemble: Heb. Call}

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Abishai
<052>_,

Now shall Sheba
<07652>

the son
<01121>

of Bichri
<01075>

do us more harm
<03415> (8799)

than [did] Absalom
<053>_:

take
<03947> (8798)

thou thy lord's
<0113>

servants
<05650>_,

and pursue
<07291> (8798)

after
<0310>

him, lest he get
<04672> (8804)

him fenced
<01219> (8803)

cities
<05892>_,

and escape
<05337> (8689)

us
<05869>_.

{escape...: Heb. deliver himself from our eyes}

And there went out
<03318> (8799)

after
<0310>

him Joab's
<03097>

men
<0582>_,

and the Cherethites
<03774>_,

and the Pelethites
<06432>_,

and all the mighty men
<01368>_:

and they went out
<03318> (8799)

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

to pursue
<07291> (8800)

after
<0310>

Sheba
<07652>

the son
<01121>

of Bichri
<01075>_.

When they [were] at the great
<01419>

stone
<068>

which [is] in Gibeon
<01391>_,

Amasa
<06021>

went
<0935> (8804)

before
<06440>

them. And Joab's
<03097>

garment
<04055>

that he had put on
<03830>

was girded
<02296> (8803)

unto him, and upon it a girdle
<02289>

[with] a sword
<02719>

fastened
<06775> (8794)

upon his loins
<04975>

in the sheath
<08593>

thereof; and as he went forth
<03318> (8804)

it fell out
<05307> (8799)_.

And Joab
<03097>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Amasa
<06021>_,

[Art] thou in health
<07965>_,

my brother
<0251>_?

And Joab
<03097>

took
<0270> (8799)

Amasa
<06021>

by the beard
<02206>

with the right
<03225>

hand
<03027>

to kiss
<05401> (8800)

him.
