2 Samuel 20:20-22

International Standard Version

²⁰ But Joab replied, “No way! No way! I’m not here to devour or destroy! ²¹ That’s a lie! But there is a man from the Ephraim hill country—he’s known as Bichri’s son Sheba—who has rebelled against King David. Turn him over and I’ll withdraw from the city!”

So the woman replied, “Watch this! His head will be thrown to you over the city wall.” ²² Then the woman wisely went back to her people. They cut off the head of Bichri’s son Sheba and threw it out to Joab, so Joab sounded his battle trumpet and they withdrew from the city. Everybody went back home and Joab returned to the king at Jerusalem.
