2 Samuel 20:2-4
Names of God Bible
2 So all the people of Israel left David to follow Sheba, Bichri’s son. But the people of Judah remained loyal to their king on his way from the Jordan River to Jerusalem.
3 When David came to his palace in Jerusalem, he took the ten concubines[a] 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.
4 The king told Amasa, “Call the people of Judah together for me, and in three days be here yourself.”
