1 Kings 20:5-9
5Then the messengersH4397 returnedH7725 and saidH559, “Ben-hadadH1130 saysH559 1thisH3541: ‘I did indeedH3588 sendH7971 word to you, saying, “You shall giveH5414 me your silverH3701, your goldH2091, your wivesH802, and your childrenH1121”; 6but about this timeH6256 tomorrowH4279 I will sendH7971 my servantsH5650 to you, and they will searchH2664 your houseH1004 and the housesH1004 of your servantsH5650; and they will takeH7760 in their handsH3027 everythingH3605 that is pleasingH4261 to your eyesH5869, and takeH3947 it all awayH3947.’”
7Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 summonedH7121 allH3605 the eldersH2205 of the landH776 and saidH559, “PleaseH4994 beH3045 awareH3045 and 2seeH7200 that thisH2088 man is lookingH1245 forH1245 troubleH7463; for he sentH7971 me his demand for my wivesH802, my childrenH1121, my silverH3701, and my goldH2091, and I did not refuseH4513 him.” 8Then allH3605 the eldersH2205 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 saidH559 to him, “Do not listenH8085 norH3808 consentH14.” 9So he saidH559 to the messengersH4397 of Ben-hadadH1130, “TellH559 my lordH113 the kingH4428, ‘EverythingH3605 that you sentH7971 as a demand to your servantH5650 at the firstH7223, I will doH6213; but thisH2088 thingH1697 I cannotH3201H3808 doH6213.’” Then the messengersH4397 departedH1980, and broughtH7725 him wordH1697 againH7725.
