4 Then the king said to Amasa, |Summon the men of Judah to me within three days, and be present here yourself.| 5 So Amasa went to summon Judah together, but he delayed beyond the set time that had been allotted him. 6 David said to Abishai, |Now Sheba the son of Bikri will do us more harm than Absalom did. Now then, take your lord’s servants with you and pursue after him, otherwise he will get himself to fortified cities and escape from us.| 7 So there went out after him Joab's men and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the warriors. And they went out from Jerusalem to pursue Sheba son of Bikri. 2 Samuel 20:4-7, New Heart English Bible. Public domain.
