The matter [is] not so: but a man of mount Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, hath lifted up his hand against the king, [even] against David: deliver him only, and I will depart from the city. And the woman said unto Joab, Behold, his head shall be thrown to thee over the wall (20:21) Then the woman went unto all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and cast [it] out to Joab. And he blew a trumpet, and they retired from the city, every man to his tent. And Joab returned to Jerusalem unto the king (20:22) Now Joab [was] over all the host of Israel: and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was] over the Cherethites and over the Pelethites: (20:23) And Adoram [was] over the tribute: and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud [was] recorder: (20:24) And Sheva [was] scribe: and Zadok and Abiathar [were] the priests: (20:25) And Ira also the Jairite was a chief ruler about David
(20:26)
