2 Samuel 20:3-5

New Life Version

³ Then David came to his house at Jerusalem. The king took his ten women whom he had left to take care of the house, and had a prison soldier watch them. David gave them food, but did not go in to them. So they were shut up until the day of their death, living as women whose husbands had died.

⁴ Then the king said to Amasa, “Call the men of Judah to come to me within three days, and you be here yourself.” ⁵ So Amasa went to call out the men of Judah. But he took longer than the time which had been given him.
