2 Kings 6:28-30
Amplified Bible
28 And the king said to her, “What is the matter with you?” She answered, “This woman said to me, ‘Give your son so we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.’ 29 So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I said to her, ‘Give your son so that we may eat him’; but she had hidden her son.” 30 When the king heard the woman’s words, he [a]tore his clothes—now he was still walking along on the wall—and the people looked [at him], and he had on [b]sackcloth underneath [his royal robe] next to his skin.
