2 Kings 6:24-29

24And it came to pass after this that Ben-Hadad king of Syria gathered all his army, and went up and besieged Samaria.

25And there was a great famine in Samaria; and behold, they besieged it, until an ass's head was worth eighty silver-pieces, and the fourth part of a cab of dove's dung five silver-pieces.

26And it came to pass as the king of Israel was passing by upon the wall, there cried a woman to him saying, Help, my lord O king!

27And he said, If Jehovah do not help thee, whence should I help thee? Out of the threshing-floor, or out of the winepress?

28And the king said to her, What aileth thee? And she said, This woman said to me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to-day, and we will eat my son to-morrow.

29And we boiled my son, and ate him: and I said to her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him; and she has hidden her son.
