2 Kings 6:26-28
International Standard Version
26 While the king of Israel was walking along the city[a] wall, a woman cried out to him. “Help me, your majesty!”[b] she said.
27 He replied, “No! Since the Lord won’t give you victory, how will I be able to deliver you? From the threshing floor? From the wine press?” 28 Then the king asked her, “What’s bothering[c] you?”
She said, “This woman told me, ‘Give up your son, and we’ll eat him today, and we’ll eat my son tomorrow.’”
