1 Kings 20:32-34

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.

34And Ben–hadad saidH559 unto him, The citiesH5892, which my fatherH1 tookH3947 from thy fatherH1, I will restoreH7725; and thou shalt makeH7760 streetsH2351 for thee in DamascusH1834, as my fatherH1 madeH7760 in SamariaH8111. Then said Ahab, I will send thee awayH7971 with this covenantH1285. So he madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with him, and sent him awayH7971.1
