Amplified Bible
1 Kings 20:2-6
2Then he sent messengers to the city to Ahab king of Israel; and he said to him, “Thus says Ben-hadad:
3‘Your silver and your gold are mine; your wives and your children, even the fairest, also are mine [as conditions of peace].’ ”
4The king of Israel [conceded his defeat and] answered, “By your word, my lord, O king, I am yours, and all that I have.”
5The messengers returned and said, “Thus says Ben-hadad: ‘I indeed sent word to you, saying, “You shall give me your silver, your gold, your wives, and your children,”
6but about this time tomorrow I will send my servants to you, and they will search your house and the houses of your servants; and they will take with their hands (confiscate) whatever is desirable in your eyes and carry it away.’ ”
