2 Kings 6:26-30

26As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried out to him, “My lord the king, help!”

27He answered, “If the Lord doesn’t help you, where can I get help for you? From the threshing floor or the winepress?”

28Then the king asked her, “What’s the matter?” She said, “This woman said to me, ‘Give up your son, and we will eat him today. Then we will eat my son tomorrow.’

29So we boiled my son and ate him, and I said to her the next day, ‘Give up your son, and we will eat him,’ but she has hidden her son.”

30When the king heard the woman’s words, he tore his clothes. Then, as he was passing by on the wall, the people saw that there was sackcloth under his clothes next to his skin.
