How to set delay between scenarios in karate?

I need to put delay between scenarios otherwise API is throwing response code of exceeding the limit (queries per second). Is it somehow possible to set some delay between scenarios? I would not like to put any javascript delay there, as there is no such thing because of single threading anyways. Is it?

Karate supports Java and JavaScript and since JavaScript doesn't have something like a sleep method, the only thing you can do is to load the Thread java type into JS and call sleep on that type.

This example configures a JS function to be called after every scenario:

Feature: A test to show how to wait between each scenario

  Background: Configure the wait function
    * configure afterScenario =
        """
      function() {
        // load java type into js engine
        var Thread = Java.type('java.lang.Thread');
        Thread.sleep(5000); // sleep for 5 Seconds
      }
      """

  Scenario: First Scenario
    * print 1

  Scenario: Second Scenario
    * print 2
