2 Samuel 20:1

¶ And there happened to be there a man of Belial, whose name [was] Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he blew a trumpet, and said, We have no part in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to his tents, O Israel.

And there happened {H7122} to be there a man {H376} of Belial {H1100}, whose name {H8034} was Sheba {H7652}, the son {H1121} of Bichri {H1075}, a Benjamite {H1145}: and he blew {H8628} a trumpet {H7782}, and said {H559}, We have no part {H2506} in David {H1732}, neither have we inheritance {H5159} in the son {H1121} of Jesse {H3448}: every {H376} man {H376} to his tents {H168}, O Israel {H3478}.

There happened to be there a scoundrel whose name was Sheva the son of Bikhri, a Binyamini. He sounded the shofar and said, "We have no share in David, no inheritance in the son of Yishai; so, Isra'el, every man to his tent!"

Now a worthless man named Sheba son of Bichri, a Benjamite, happened to be there, and he blew the ram’s horn and shouted: “We have no share in David, no inheritance in Jesse’s son. Every man to his tent, O Israel!”

And there happened to be there a base fellow, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he blew the trumpet, and said, We have no portion in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to his tents, O Israel.
