1 Kings 20:31-33

31And his servantsH5650 saidH559 unto him, Behold now, we have heardH8085 that the kingsH4428 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are mercifulH2617 kingsH4428: let us, I pray thee, putH7760 sackclothH8242 on our loinsH4975, and ropesH2256 upon our headsH7218, and go outH3318 to the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478: peradventure he will saveH2421 thy lifeH5315. 32So they girdedH2296 sackclothH8242 on their loinsH4975, and put ropesH2256 on their headsH7218, and cameH935 to the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559, Thy servantH5650 Ben–hadadH1130 saithH559, I pray thee, let me liveH5315H2421. And he saidH559, Is he yet aliveH2416? he is my brotherH251. 33Now the menH582 did diligently observeH5172 whether any thing would come from him, and did hastilyH4116 catchH2480 it: and they saidH559, Thy brotherH251 Ben–hadadH1130. Then he saidH559, GoH935 ye, bringH3947 him. Then Ben–hadadH1130 came forthH3318 to him; and he caused him to come upH5927 into the chariotH4818.
