2 KINGS 6:30 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes; and he passed by upon the wall, and the people looked, and, behold, he had sackcloth within upon his flesh.”
When the king heard the woman's words, he tore his clothes — the gesture expresses the king's horror and recognition of the crisis's extremity. Walking on the wall, his subjects see the anguish beneath his royal garments.
