1 Kings 20:12-16

12And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when Ben-hadad heardH8085 this messageH1697, as he was drinkingH8354, he and the kingsH4428, in the pavilions, that he saidH559 unto his servantsH5650, SetH7760 yourselves in array. And they setH7760 themselvesH5921 in array againstH5921 the cityH5892.

13And, beholdH2009, a prophetH5030 cameH5066 nearH5066 unto AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, Hast thou seenH7200 allH3605 this greatH1419 multitudeH1995? beholdH2009; I will deliverH5414 it intoH413 thine handH3027 this dayH3117; and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.

14And AhabH256 saidH559, By whomH4310? And he saidH559, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, By the youngH5288 menH5288 of the princesH8269 of the provincesH4082. Then he saidH559, Who shall beginH631 the battleH4421? And he answeredH559, Thou.

15Then he musteredH6485 the youngH5288 menH5288 of the princesH8269 of the provincesH4082, and they were twoH8147 hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 twoH8147: and afterH310 them he musteredH6485 allH3605 the peopleH5971, evenH853 allH3605 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, beingH1961 sevenH7651 thousandH505.

16And they wentH3318 outH3318 at noonH6672. But Ben-hadadH1130 was drinkingH8354 himselfH1931 drunkH8354 in the pavilions, he and the kingsH4428, the thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 kingsH4428 that helpedH5826 him.
