7Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 calledH7121 allH3605 the eldersH2205 of the landH776 and saidH559, “PleaseH4994 observeH3045 and 1seeH7200 howH3588 thisH2088 man is lookingH1245 for troubleH7463; for he sentH7971 to me for my wivesH802 and my childrenH1121 and my silverH3701 and my goldH2091, and I did not refuseH4513 him.”

8AllH3605 the eldersH2205 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 saidH559 to him, “Do not listenH8085 or consentH14.”
