1 Kings 20:39-42

39And as the kingH4428 passedH5674 by, he criedH6817 unto the kingH4428: and he saidH559, Thy servantH5650 wentH3318 outH3318 intoH413 the midstH7130 of the battleH4421; and, beholdH2009, a manH376 turnedH5493 asideH5493, and broughtH935 a manH376 unto meH413, and saidH559, KeepH8104 this manH376: ifH518 by anyH376 meansH518 he be missingH6485, then shall thy lifeH5315 be for his lifeH5315, or elseH176 thou shalt payH8254 a talentH3603 of silverH3701.

40And as thy servantH5650 was busy hereH2008 and there, he was goneH369. And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto him, SoH3651 shall thy judgmentH4941 be; thyself hast decidedH559 it.

41And he hasted, and tookH5493 the headband awayH5493 from his eyesH5869; and the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 discerned him that he was of the prophetsH5030.

42And he saidH559 unto him, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, BecauseH3282 thou hast letH7971 goH7971 outH7971 of thy handH3027 the manH376 whom I had devotedH2764 to destruction, therefore thy lifeH5315 shall goH7971 for his lifeH5315, and thy peopleH5971 for his peopleH5971.
