25 Samaria's food supply ran out. They laid siege to it so long that a donkey's head was selling for eighty shekels of silver and a quarter of a kab of dove's droppings for five shekels of silver.

26 While the king of Israel was passing by on the city wall, a woman shouted to him, |Help us, my master, O king!|

27 He replied, |No, let the LORD help you. How can I help you? The threshing floor and winepress are empty.|
