2 Samuel 20:19 BBE

¹⁷  And he came near, and the woman said, Are you Joab? And he said in answer, I am. Then she said, Give ear to your servant's words. And he said, I am giving ear.

¹⁸  Then she said, In the old days, there was a saying, Let them put the question in Abel and in Dan, saying, Has what was ordered by men of good faith in Israel ever come to an end?

¹⁹  Your purpose is the destruction of a mother-town in Israel: why would you put an end to the heritage of the Lord?

²⁰  And Joab, answering her, said, Far, far be it from me to be a cause of death or destruction;

²¹  Not so: but a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, Sheba, son of Bichri, by name, has taken up arms against the king, against David: give up this man only, and I will go away from the town. And the woman said to Joab, His head will be dropped over the wall to you.
