2 Kings 6:26-30

26And as the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 was passing byH5674 upon the wallH2346, there criedH6817 a womanH802 unto him, sayingH559, HelpH3467, my lordH113, O kingH4428. 27And he saidH559, If YhwhH3068 do not helpH3467 thee, whenceH370 shall I helpH3467 thee? out of the barnfloorH1637, or out of the winepressH3342?1 28And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto her, What aileth thee? And she answeredH559, This womanH802 saidH559 unto me, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him to dayH3117, and we will eatH398 my sonH1121 to morrowH4279. 29So we boiledH1310 my sonH1121, and did eatH398 him: and I saidH559 unto her on the nextH312 dayH3117, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him: and she hath hidH2244 her sonH1121.2

30And it came to pass, when the kingH4428 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of the womanH802, that he rentH7167 his clothesH899; and he passed byH5674 upon the wallH2346, and the peopleH5971 lookedH7200, and, behold, he had sackclothH8242 withinH1004 upon his fleshH1320.
