'Wait' in the Bible
"There's no reason to wait for you!" Joab retorted. Then he took three spears in his hand and stabbed Absalom in the heart while he was still alive, dangling from the branches of the oak tree.
The king replied, "Stand here at attention and wait." So he stepped to the side and stood there waiting.
