2 Samuel 20:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ Then a wise woman of the city cried, Hear, hear! Say to Joab, Come here so I can speak to you.

¹⁷ And when he came near her, the woman said, Are you Joab? He answered, I am. Then she said to him, Hear the words of your handmaid. He answered, I am listening.

¹⁸ Then she said, People used to say, Let them but ask counsel at Abel, and so they settled the matter.
