Joab Assassinates Amasa

3 And when David was come to his house to Jerusalem, he took the ten wives his concubines that he had left behind him to keep the house, and put them in ward and ministered all things unto them: but lay no more with them. And so they were enclosed unto the day of the death of them, and lived a widow's life. 4 Then said the king to Amasa, "Call me the men of Judah together within three days and present thyself here." 5 And Amasa went to gather the men of Judah together: but tarried longer than the time which was appointed him.
