Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshiped: then he came to his own house; and when he asked for it, they set bread before him, and he did eat.
And Joab sent to Tekoah, and fetched from there a wise woman, and said to her, I pray you, pretend to be a mourner, and put on now mourning apparel, and do not anoint yourself with oil, but be as a woman that has a long time mourned for the dead:
You shall sow, but you shall not reap; you shall tread the olives, but you shall not anoint yourselves with oil; and sweet wine, but shall not drink wine.
Wash yourself therefore, and anoint yourself, and put on your fine clothing, and go down to the floor: but do not make yourself known to the man, until he shall have done eating and drinking.
