View In My Bible
2
So Joab sent someone to Tekoa1 and had a wise woman2 brought from there. He said to her, "Pretend you are in mourning. Dress in mourning clothes, and don't use any cosmetic lotions.3 Act like a woman who has spent many days grieving for the dead.
3
Then go to the king and speak these words to him." And Joab4 put the words in her mouth.
4
When the woman from Tekoa wenta to the king, she fell with her face to the ground to pay him honor, and she said, "Help me, O king!"
