2 Samuel 20:14-16
Evangelical Heritage Version
14 Sheba passed through all the tribes of Israel to Abel Beth Ma’akah, and all the Berites[a] were gathered together and they followed him.
15 All the men who were with Joab besieged Sheba in Abel Beth Ma’akah. They constructed a siege ramp against the rampart of the city, and they started battering the wall to make it fall down.
16 A wise woman called out from the city, “Listen! Listen! Please tell Joab, ‘Come here and let me speak to you.’”
