a wise woman called from the city,“ Listen! Listen! Tell Joab to come here so I can speak to him.”

While that was going on, a wise woman called out from the city. She shouted,“ Listen! Listen! Tell Joab to come here. I want to speak to him.”

But a wise woman in the town called out to Joab,“ Listen to me, Joab. Come over here so I can talk to you.”

a wise woman called out from the city,“ Listen! Listen! Please tell Joab to come here and let me speak with him.”

Then a wise woman called out from the city,“ Listen, listen! Please tell Joab,‘ Come here that I may speak with you.’ ”

Then a wise woman cried out from the city,“ Hear, Hear! Please say to Joab,‘ Come nearby, that I may speak with you.’”

Then cried a wise woman out of the city, Hear, hear; say, I pray you, unto Joab, Come near hither, that I may speak with thee.

And Joab sent to Tekoa and brought from there a wise woman and said to her,“ Pretend to be a mourner and put on mourning garments. Do not anoint yourself with oil, but behave like a woman who has been mourning many days for the dead.

Now the name of the man was Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigail. The woman was discerning and beautiful, but the man was harsh and badly behaved; he was a Calebite.

There was a little city with few men in it, and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it.But there was found in it a poor, wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man.But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man’s wisdom is despised and his words are not heard.The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.
