In context
1And Joab the son of Zeruiah knew that the heart of the king was toward Absalom.
2And Joab sent to Tekoa, and took thence a cunning woman, and said to her, Mourn, I pray thee, and put on mourning apparel, and anoint thee not with oil, and thou shalt be as a woman mourning for one that is dead thus for many days.
— 2 Samuel 14:3 —
4So the woman of Tekoa went in to the king and fell upon her face to the earth, and did him obeisance, and said, Help, O king, help.
5And the king said to her, What is the matter with thee? And she said, I am indeed a widow woman, and my husband is dead.
