Kings IV 6:28 In-Context

26 And the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, and a woman cried to him, saying, Help, my lord, O king.
27 And he said to her, Unless the Lord help thee, whence shall I help thee? from the corn-floor, or from the wine-press?
28 And the king said to her, What is with thee? And the woman said to him, This said to me, Give thy son, and we will eat him to-day, and we will eat my son to-morrow.
29 So we boiled my son, and ate him; and I said to her on the second day, Give thy son, and let us eat him: and she has hidden her son.
30 And it came to pass, when the king of Israel heard the words of the woman, he rent his garments; and he passed by on the wall, and the people saw sackcloth within upon his flesh.
