1 Kings 20:32-34
32So 1they girded sackcloth on their loins and put ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel and said, “2Your servant Ben-hadad says, ‘Please let me live.’” And he said, “Is he still alive? He is my brother.” 33Now the men 3took this as an omen, and quickly 4catching his word said, “Your brother Ben-hadad.” Then he said, “Go, bring him.” Then Ben-hadad came out to him, and he 5took him up into the chariot. 34Ben-hadad said to him, “6The cities which my father took from your father I will restore, and you shall make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria.” Ahab said, “And I will let you go with this covenant.” So he made a covenant with him and let him go.
