2 Samuel 20:4-6

Young's Literal Translation

⁴ And the king saith unto Amasa, `Call for me the men of Judah [in] three days, and thou, stand here,'

⁵ and Amasa goeth to call Judah, and tarrieth beyond the appointed time that he had appointed him;

⁶ and David saith unto Abishai, `Now doth Sheba son of Bichri do evil to us more than Absalom; thou, take the servants of thy lord, and pursue after him, lest he have found for himself fenced cities, and delivered himself [from] our eye.'
