2 Samuel 14:1-2

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

14 And Joab the son of Sarvia, understanding that the king's heart was turned to Absalom,

² Sent to Thecua, and fetched from thence a wise woman: and said to her: Feign thyself to be a mourner, and put on mourning apparel, and be not anointed with oil, that thou mayest be as a woman that had a long time been mourning for one dead.
