2Then he sentH7971 messengersH4397 into the cityH5892 toH413 AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, 3sayingH559, “This is whatH3541 Ben-hadadH1130 saysH559:1 ‘Your silverH3701 and goldH2091 areH1931 mine, and your bestH2896 wivesH802 and childrenH1121 areH1992 mine!’”

4And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478H559 repliedH6030, “Just as you sayH1697, my lordH113 the kingH4428: I am yoursH589, along with allH3605 thatH834 I have.”
