11 And Hiʹram+ the king of Tyre proceeded to send messengers+ to David, and also cedar trees+ and workers in wood and workers in stone for walls, and they began to build a house for David.+

3 Eventually David came to his house at Jerusalem.+ Then the king took the ten women,+ the concubines whom he had left behind to take care of the house, and he put them in a house of confinement, but he kept on supplying food to them. And with them he did not have any relations,+ but they continued shut up closely until the day of their dying, in a widowhood with a living [husband].*
