2 Samuel 20:16-22

Then cried
<07121> (8799)
a wise
<02450>
woman
<0802>
out of the city
<05892>_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)_,
hear
<08085> (8798)_;
say
<0559> (8798)_,
I pray you, unto Joab
<03097>_,
Come near
<07126> (8798)
hither, that I may speak
<01696> (8762)
with thee.
And when he was come near
<07126> (8799)
unto her, the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Art] thou Joab
<03097>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I [am he]. Then she said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Hear
<08085> (8798)
the words
<01697>
of thine handmaid
<0519>_.
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
I do hear
<08085> (8802)_.
Then she spake
<0559> (8799)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
They were wont
<01696> (8763)
to speak
<01696> (8762)
in old time
<07223>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
They shall surely
<07592> (8800)
ask
<07592> (8762)
[counsel] at Abel
<059>_:
and so they ended
<08552> (8689)
[the matter]. {They were...: or, They plainly spoke in the beginning, saying, Surely they will ask of Abel, and so make and end}
I [am one of them that are] peaceable
<07999> (8803)
[and] faithful
<0539> (8803)
in Israel
<03478>_:
thou seekest
<01245> (8764)
to destroy
<04191> (8687)
a city
<05892>
and a mother
<0517>
in Israel
<03478>_:
why wilt thou swallow up
<01104> (8762)
the inheritance
<05159>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
And Joab
<03097>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Far be it
<02486>_,
far be it
<02486>
from me, that I should swallow up
<01104> (8762)
or destroy
<07843> (8686)_.
The matter
<01697>
[is] not so: but a man
<0376>
of mount
<02022>
Ephraim
<0669>_,
Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>
by name
<08034>_,
hath lifted up
<05375> (8804)
his hand
<03027>
against the king
<04428>_,
[even] against David
<01732>_:
deliver
<05414> (8798)
him only, and I will depart
<03212> (8799)
from the city
<05892>_.
And the woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joab
<03097>_,
Behold, his head
<07218>
shall be thrown
<07993> (8716)
to thee over
<01157>
the wall
<02346>_.
{by name: Heb. by his name}
Then the woman
<0802>
went
<0935> (8799)
unto all the people
<05971>
in her wisdom
<02451>_.
And they cut off
<03772> (8799)
the head
<07218>
of Sheba
<07652>
the son
<01121>
of Bichri
<01075>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
[it] out to Joab
<03097>_.
And he blew
<08628> (8799)
a trumpet
<07782>_,
and they retired
<06327> (8799)
from the city
<05892>_,
every man
<0376>
to his tent
<0168>_.
And Joab
<03097>
returned
<07725> (8804)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
unto the king
<04428>_.
{retired: Heb. were scattered}

Ecclesiastes 9:13-18

This
<02090>
wisdom
<02451>
have I seen
<07200> (8804)
also under the sun
<08121>_,
and it [seemed] great
<01419>
unto me:
[There was] a little
<06996>
city
<05892>_,
and few
<04592>
men
<0582>
within it; and there came
<0935> (8804)
a great
<01419>
king
<04428>
against it, and besieged
<05437> (8804)
it, and built
<01129> (8804)
great
<01419>
bulwarks
<04685>
against it:
Now there was found
<04672> (8804)
in it a poor
<04542>
wise
<02450>
man
<0376>_,
and he by his wisdom
<02451>
delivered
<04422> (8765)
the city
<05892>_;
yet no man
<0120>
remembered
<02142> (8804)
that same poor
<04542>
man
<0376>_.
Then said
<0559> (8804)
I, Wisdom
<02451>
[is] better
<02896>
than strength
<01369>_:
nevertheless the poor man's
<04542>
wisdom
<02451>
[is] despised
<0959> (8803)_,
and his words
<01697>
are not heard
<08085> (8737)_.
The words
<01697>
of wise
<02450>
[men are] heard
<08085> (8737)
in quiet
<05183>
more than the cry
<02201>
of him that ruleth
<04910> (8802)
among fools
<03684>_.
Wisdom
<02451>
[is] better
<02896>
than weapons
<03627>
of war
<07128>_:
but one
<0259>
sinner
<02398> (8802)
destroyeth
<06> (8762)
much
<07235> (8687)
good
<02896>_.
