17The youngH5288 menH5288 of the leadersH8269 of the provincesH4082 wentH3318 outH3318 firstH7223; and Ben-hadadH1130 sentH7971 outH7971 scouts, and they reportedH5046 to him, sayingH559, “MenH376 have comeH3318 outH3318 from SamariaH8111.” 181Then he saidH559, “IfH518 they have comeH3318 outH3318 2for peaceH7965, takeH8610 them aliveH2416; or ifH518 they have comeH3318 outH3318 for warH4421, takeH8610 them aliveH2416 as well.”
