2 Samuel 20:16-22

Then cried H7121 a wise H2450 woman H802 out of the city, H5892 Hear, H8085 hear; H8085 say, H559 I pray H4994 you, to Joab, H3097 Come H7126 near H7126 here, that I may speak H1696 with you.

And when he was come H7126 near H7126 to her, the woman H802 said, H559 Are you Joab? H3097 And he answered, H559 I am he. Then she said H559 to him, Hear H8085 the words H1697 of your handmaid. H519 And he answered, H559 I do hear. H8085

Then she spoke, H559 saying, H559 They were wont H1696 to speak H1696 in old H7223 time, saying, H559 They shall surely ask H7592 counsel at Abel: H59 and so H3651 they ended H8552 the matter.

I am one of them that are peaceable H7999 and faithful H539 in Israel: H3478 you seek H1245 to destroy H4191 a city H5892 and a mother H517 in Israel: H3478 why H4100 will you swallow H1104 up the inheritance H5159 of the LORD? H3068

And Joab H3097 answered H6030 and said, H559 Far H2486 be it, far H2486 be it from me, that I should swallow H1104 up or destroy. H7843

The matter H1697 is not so: H3651 but a man H376 of mount H2022 Ephraim, H669 Sheba H7652 the son H1121 of Bichri H1075 by name, H8034 has lifted H5375 up his hand H3027 against the king, H4428 even against David: H1732 deliver H5414 him only, H905 and I will depart H3212 from the city. H5892 And the woman H802 said H559 to Joab, H3097 Behold, H2009 his head H7218 shall be thrown H7993 to you over H1157 the wall. H2346

Then the woman H802 went H935 to all H3605 the people H5971 in her wisdom. H2451 And they cut H3772 off the head H7218 of Sheba H7652 the son H1121 of Bichri, H1075 and cast H7993 it out to Joab. H3097 And he blew H8628 a trumpet, H7782 and they retired H6327 from the city, H5892 every man H376 to his tent. H168 And Joab H3097 returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389 to the king. H4428

Ecclesiastes 9:13-18

This H2090 wisdom H2451 have I seen H7200 also H1571 under H8478 the sun, H8121 and it seemed great H1419 to me:

There was a little H6996 city, H5892 and few H4592 men H582 within it; and there came H935 a great H1419 king H4428 against H413 it, and besieged H5437 it, and built H1129 great H1419 bulwarks H4685 against H5921 it:

Now there was found H4672 in it a poor H4542 wise H2450 man, H376 and he by his wisdom H2451 delivered H4422 the city; H5892 yet no H3808 man H120 remembered H2142 that same H1931 poor H4542 man. H376

Then said H559 I, Wisdom H2451 is better H2896 than strength: H1369 nevertheless the poor H4542 man's wisdom H2451 is despised, H959 and his words H1697 are not heard. H8085

The words H1697 of wise H2450 men are heard H8085 in quiet H5183 more than the cry H2201 of him that rules H4910 among fools. H3684

Wisdom H2451 is better H2896 than weapons H3627 of war: H7128 but one H259 sinner H2398 destroys H6 much H7235 good. H2896
