"SLEEP" command in PL/SQL?

Does anyone know if there's an equivalent of the unix "sleep" command in PL/SQL? I've got a stored procedure that goes into a loop and inserts a specified number of rows into a table. I'd like to have the procedure insert a row every, say, three seconds. Is there a relatively easy way to this?

I've already got a Korn shell script that loops and inserts a row every three seconds, but I'd like to do the whole thing in a stored procedure. Any ideas?

Thanks,
