2 Kings 6:26-30

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

27But he said, “If Adonai doesn’t help you, how would I help you? From the threshing floor, or from the winepress?”

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

29So we cooked my son and ate him. The next day I told her: ‘Give your son that we may eat him’—but she hid her son.”

30Now it came to pass when the king heard the words of the woman, that he tore his clothes—as he was passing by on the wall, the people looked, and behold, he had sackcloth underneath upon his flesh.
