1 Kings 20:1-10

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}
