He answered,“ I’m listening.”She said,“ In the past they used to say,‘ Seek counsel in Abel,’ and that’s how they settled disputes.I am one of the peaceful and faithful in Israel, but you’re trying to destroy a city that is like a mother in Israel. Why would you devour the LORD’s inheritance?”Joab protested:“ Never! I would never devour or demolish!That is not the case. There is a man named Sheba son of Bichri, from the hill country of Ephraim, who has rebelled against King David. Deliver this one man, and I will withdraw from the city.” The woman replied to Joab,“ Watch! His head will be thrown over the wall to you.”The woman went to all the people with her wise counsel, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bichri and threw it to Joab. So he blew the ram’s horn, and they dispersed from the city, each to his own tent. Joab returned to the king in Jerusalem.
