2 Samuel 20:15-17

Evangelical Heritage Version

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.’” ¹⁷ He approached her, and the woman said, “Are you Joab?”

He said, “I am.”

She said to him, “Listen to the words of your servant.”

He said, “I am listening.”
