2 Kings 6:24-29

And it came to pass after this
<0310>_,
that Benhadad
<01130>
king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>
gathered
<06908> (8799)
all his host
<04264>_,
and went up
<05927> (8799)_,
and besieged
<06696> (8799)
Samaria
<08111>_.
And there was a great
<01419>
famine
<07458>
in Samaria
<08111>_:
and, behold, they besieged
<06696> (8802)
it, until an ass's
<02543>
head
<07218>
was [sold] for fourscore
<08084>
[pieces] of silver
<03701>_,
and the fourth part
<07255>
of a cab
<06894>
of dove's dung
<01686> (8675) <03123> <02755>
for five
<02568>
[pieces] of silver
<03701>_.
And as the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
was passing by
<05674> (8802)
upon the wall
<02346>_,
there cried
<06817> (8804)
a woman
<0802>
unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Help
<03467> (8685)_,
my lord
<0113>_,
O king
<04428>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
If the LORD
<03068>
do not help
<03467> (8686)
thee, whence
<0370>
shall I help
<03467> (8686)
thee? out of the barnfloor
<01637>_,
or out of the winepress
<03342>_?
{If...: or, Let not the LORD save thee}
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered
<0559> (8799)_,
This woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto me, Give
<05414> (8798)
thy son
<01121>_,
that we may eat
<0398> (8799)
him to day
<03117>_,
and we will eat
<0398> (8799)
my son
<01121>
to morrow
<04279>_.
So we boiled
<01310> (8762)
my son
<01121>_,
and did eat
<0398> (8799)
him: and I said
<0559> (8799)
unto her on the next
<0312>
day
<03117>_,
Give
<05414> (8798)
thy son
<01121>_,
that we may eat
<0398> (8799)
him: and she hath hid
<02244> (8686)
her son
<01121>_.
{next: Heb. other}
