1 Kings 20:1-21

And Benhadad
<01130>

the king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>

gathered
<06908> (0)

all his host
<02428>

together
<06908> (8804)_:

and [there were] thirty
<07970>

and two
<08147>

kings
<04428>

with him, and horses
<05483>_,

and chariots
<07393>_:

and he went up
<05927> (8799)

and besieged
<06696> (8799)

Samaria
<08111>_,

and warred
<03898> (8735)

against it.

And he sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

to Ahab
<0256>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

into the city
<05892>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

Benhadad
<01130>_,

Thy silver
<03701>

and thy gold
<02091>

[is] mine; thy wives
<0802>

also and thy children
<01121>_,

[even] the goodliest
<02896>_,

[are] mine.

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

My lord
<0113>_,

O king
<04428>_,

according to thy saying
<01697>_,

I [am] thine, and all that I have.

And the messengers
<04397>

came again
<07725> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thus speaketh
<0559> (8804)

Benhadad
<01130>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Although I have sent
<07971> (8804)

unto thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou shalt deliver
<05414> (8799)

me thy silver
<03701>_,

and thy gold
<02091>_,

and thy wives
<0802>_,

and thy children
<01121>_;

Yet I will send
<07971> (8799)

my servants
<05650>

unto thee to morrow
<04279>

about this time
<06256>_,

and they shall search
<02664> (8765)

thine house
<01004>_,

and the houses
<01004>

of thy servants
<05650>_;

and it shall be
<01961> (8804)_,

[that] whatsoever is pleasant
<04261>

in thine eyes
<05869>_,

they shall put
<07760> (8799)

[it] in their hand
<03027>_,

and take [it] away
<03947> (8804)_.

{pleasant: Heb. desirable}

Then the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

called
<07121> (8799)

all the elders
<02205>

of the land
<0776>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Mark
<03045> (8798)_,

I pray you, and see
<07200> (8798)

how this [man] seeketh
<01245> (8764)

mischief
<07451>_:

for he sent
<07971> (8804)

unto me for my wives
<0802>_,

and for my children
<01121>_,

and for my silver
<03701>_,

and for my gold
<02091>_;

and I denied
<04513> (8804)

him not. {I denied...: Heb. I kept not back from him}

And all the elders
<02205>

and all the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Hearken
<08085> (8799)

not [unto him], nor consent
<014> (8799)_.

Wherefore he said
<0559> (8799)

unto the messengers
<04397>

of Benhadad
<01130>_,

Tell
<0559> (8798)

my lord
<0113>

the king
<04428>_,

All that thou didst send
<07971> (8804)

for to thy servant
<05650>

at the first
<07223>

I will do
<06213> (8799)_:

but this thing
<01697>

I may
<03201> (8799)

not do
<06213> (8800)_.

And the messengers
<04397>

departed
<03212> (8799)_,

and brought
<07725> (0)

him word
<01697>

again
<07725> (8686)_.

And Benhadad
<01130>

sent
<07971> (8799)

unto him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The gods
<0430>

do so
<06213> (8799)

unto me, and more also
<03254> (8686)_,

if the dust
<06083>

of Samaria
<08111>

shall suffice
<05606> (8799)

for handfuls
<08168>

for all the people
<05971>

that follow
<07272>

me. {follow...: Heb. are at my feet}

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Tell
<01696> (8761)

[him], Let not him that girdeth
<02296> (8802)

on [his harness] boast
<01984> (8691)

himself as he that putteth it off
<06605> (8764)_.

And it came to pass, when [Benhadad] heard
<08085> (8800)

this message
<01697>_,

as he [was] drinking
<08354> (8802)_,

he and the kings
<04428>

in the pavilions
<05521>_,

that he said
<0559> (8799)

unto his servants
<05650>_,

Set
<07760> (8798)

[yourselves in array]. And they set
<07760> (8799)

[themselves in array] against the city
<05892>_.

{message: Heb. word} {pavilions: or, tents} {Set yourselves...: or, Place the engines. And they placed the engines}

And, behold, there came
<05066> (8738)

a
<0259>

prophet
<05030>

unto Ahab
<0256>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saying
<0559> (8799)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Hast thou seen
<07200> (8804)

all this great
<01419>

multitude
<01995>_?

behold, I will deliver
<05414> (8802)

it into thine hand
<03027>

this day
<03117>_;

and thou shalt know
<03045> (8804)

that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_.

{came: Heb. approached}

And Ahab
<0256>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

By whom? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

[Even] by the young men
<05288>

of the princes
<08269>

of the provinces
<04082>_.

Then he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who shall order
<0631> (8799)

the battle
<04421>_?

And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou. {young...: or, servants} {order: Heb. bind, or, tie}

Then he numbered
<06485> (8799)

the young men
<05288>

of the princes
<08269>

of the provinces
<04082>_,

and they were two
<08147>

hundred
<03967>

and thirty
<07970>

two
<08147>_:

and after
<0310>

them he numbered
<06485> (8804)

all the people
<05971>_,

[even] all the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[being] seven
<07651>

thousand
<0505>_.

And they went out
<03318> (8799)

at noon
<06672>_.

But Benhadad
<01130>

[was] drinking
<08354> (8802)

himself drunk
<07910>

in the pavilions
<05521>_,

he and the kings
<04428>_,

the thirty
<07970>

and two
<08147>

kings
<04428>

that helped
<05826> (8802)

him.

And the young men
<05288>

of the princes
<08269>

of the provinces
<04082>

went out
<03318> (8799)

first
<07223>_;

and Benhadad
<01130>

sent out
<07971> (8799)_,

and they told
<05046> (8686)

him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

There are men
<0582>

come out
<03318> (8804)

of Samaria
<08111>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Whether they be come out
<03318> (8804)

for peace
<07965>_,

take
<08610> (8798)

them alive
<02416>_;

or whether they be come out
<03318> (8804)

for war
<04421>_,

take
<08610> (8798)

them alive
<02416>_.

So these young men
<05288>

of the princes
<08269>

of the provinces
<04082>

came out
<03318> (8804)

of the city
<05892>_,

and the army
<02428>

which followed
<0310>

them.

And they slew
<05221> (8686)

every one
<0376>

his man
<0376>_:

and the Syrians
<0758>

fled
<05127> (8799)_;

and Israel
<03478>

pursued
<07291> (8799)

them: and Benhadad
<01130>

the king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>

escaped
<04422> (8735)

on an horse
<05483>

with the horsemen
<06571>_.

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

went out
<03318> (8799)_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

the horses
<05483>

and chariots
<07393>_,

and slew
<05221> (8689)

the Syrians
<0758>

with a great
<01419>

slaughter
<04347>_.
