2 And Joab will send to Tekoah and take from thence a wise woman, and he will say to her, Thou shalt mourn, and put on now garments of mourning, and thou shalt not be anointed with oil, and be thou as a woman this many days mourning for the dead: 3 And come to the king and speak to him according to this word. And Joab will put words in her mouth. 4 And the woman, the Tekoite, will speak to the king and fall upon her face to the earth, and worship him, and say, Save, O king! 5 And the king will say to her, What to thee? And she will say, Truly I a widow woman, and my husband will die. 2 Samuel 14:2-5, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
