2 Samuel 20:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 So every man of Israel went from David and followed Sheba the son of Bichri: but the men of Judah clave fast unto their King, from [a]Jordan even to Jerusalem.
3 When David then came to his house to Jerusalem, the king took the ten women his (A)concubines, that he had left behind him to keep the house, and put them in ward, and fed them, but lay no more with them: but they were enclosed unto the day of their death, living in widowhood.
4 ¶ Then said the King to [b]Amasa, Assemble me the men of Judah within three days, and be thou here present.
