2 Samuel 20:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ So Amasa went to assemble the men of Juda, but he tarried beyond the set time which the king had appointed him.

⁶ And David said to Abisai: Now will Seba the son of Bochri do us more harm than did Absalom: take thou therefore the servants of thy lord, and pursue after him, lest he find fenced cities, and escape us.

⁷ So Joab's men went out with him, and the Cerethi and the Phelethi: and all the valiant men went out of Jerusalem to pursue after Seba the son of Bochri.
