gltv@1Kings:20:3 @ Your silver and your gold are mine, and your wives and your sons, the best, are mine.

gltv@1Kings:20:4 @ And the king of Israel answered and said, According to your word, my lord, O king, I am yours, and all that I have.

gltv@1Kings:20:5 @ And the messengers came again and said, So says Ben-hadad, saying, Surely I sent to you, saying, Your silver and your gold and your wives and your sons you shall give to me;

gltv@1Kings:20:6 @ I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, and they shall search your house, and your servants' houses; and it shall be that whatever is pleasing in your eyes, they will put it in their hand and take it away.

gltv@1Kings:20:7 @ And the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Please note, and see the evil this one is seeking, for he sent to me for my wives, and for my sons, and for my silver, and for my gold, and I did not withhold from him.
