Second Samuel 15:7

[Absalom's act of seducing the people continued for some time. This verse mentions the time period "from the end of 40 years." The text does not say what the 40 years mark the end of. It cannot mean that Absalom did this for 40 years, as David died when he was 70 years old. Some suggestions are: Saul's coronation as king, David's coronation by Samuel, David's accession to the throne, or Avshalom's age. Some believe that the writers who copied the Hebrew text made a mistake and wrote arbaim (40) instead of arba (4).]
And it came to pass at the end of the forty years [some manuscripts have four years] that Absalom said to the king, "Let me go, I beg you, and pay my vow which I have vowed to the Lord (Yahweh) in Hebron (Hebr. Chevrón).
