1 Kings 20:32-34
32SoH2296 with sackclothH8242 around their waistsH4975 and ropesH2256 around their headsH7218, they wentH935 toH413 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and saidH559, “Your servantH5650 Ben-hadadH1130 saysH559, ‘PleaseH4994 spareH2421 my lifeH5315.’”
And the king answeredH559, “Is he stillH5750 aliveH2416? HeH1931 is my brotherH251.”
33Now the menH582 were looking for a sign of hopeH5172, and they quicklyH4116 graspedH2480H4480 at this word and repliedH559, “Yes, your brotherH251 Ben-hadadH1130.”
“GoH935 and get himH3947!” saidH559 the king.
Then Ben-hadadH1130 came outH3318, and Ahab had him come upH5927 intoH5921 his chariotH4818.
34Ben-hadad saidH559 to himH413, “I will restoreH7725 the citiesH5892 my fatherH1 tookH3947 fromH854 your fatherH1; you may set upH7760 your own marketplacesH2351 in DamascusH1834, asH834 my fatherH1 did in SamariaH8111.”
“By this treatyH12851 IH589 release youH7971,” Ahab replied. So he madeH3772 a treatyH1285 with him and sent him awayH7971.
