updv - 1Kings:20:13-34

updv@1Kings:20:13 @ And, look, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel, and said, Thus says Yahweh, Have you seen all this great multitude? Look, I will deliver it into your hand this day; and you will know that I am Yahweh.

updv@1Kings:20:14 @ And Ahab said, By whom? And he said, Thus says Yahweh, By the young men of the princes of the provinces. Then he said, Who will begin the battle? And he answered, You.

updv@1Kings:20:15 @ Then he mustered the young men of the princes of the provinces, and they were two hundred and thirty-two: and after them he mustered all the people, even all the sons of Israel, being seven thousand.

updv@1Kings:20:16 @ And they went out at noon. But Ben-hadad was drinking himself drunk in the pavilions, he and the kings, the thirty and two kings that helped him.

updv@1Kings:20:17 @ And the young men of the princes of the provinces went out first; and Ben-hadad sent out, and they told him, saying, Men have come out from Samaria.

updv@1Kings:20:18 @ And he said, Whether they have come out for peace, take them alive, or whether they have come out for war, take them alive.

updv@1Kings:20:19 @ So these went out of the city, the young men of the princes of the provinces, and the army which followed them.

updv@1Kings:20:20 @ And they slew every one his man; and the Syrians fled, and Israel pursued them: and Ben-hadad the king of Syria escaped on a horse with horsemen.

updv@1Kings:20:21 @ And the king of Israel went out, and struck the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.

updv@1Kings:20:22 @ And the prophet came near to the king of Israel, and said to him, Go, strengthen yourself, and consider, and see what you do; for at the return of the year the king of Syria will come up against you.

updv@1Kings:20:23 @ And the slaves of the king of Syria said to him, Their god is a god of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we: but let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than they.

updv@1Kings:20:24 @ And do this thing: take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put captains in their place;

updv@1Kings:20:25 @ and you number for yourself an army, like the army that you have lost, horse for horse, and chariot for chariot; and we will fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than they. And he listened to their voice, and did so.

updv@1Kings:20:26 @ And it came to pass at the return of the year, that Ben-hadad mustered the Syrians, and went up to Aphek, to fight against Israel.

updv@1Kings:20:27 @ And the sons of Israel were mustered, and were victualled, and went against them: and the sons of Israel encamped before them like two little flocks of young goats; but the Syrians filled the country.

updv@1Kings:20:28 @ And a man of God came near and spoke to the king of Israel, and said, Thus says Yahweh, Because the Syrians have said, Yahweh is a god of the hills, but he is not a god of the valleys; therefore I will deliver all this great multitude into your hand, and you(note:){+}(:note) will know that I am Yahweh.

updv@1Kings:20:29 @ And they encamped one opposite the other seven days. And so it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined; and the sons of Israel slew of the Syrians a hundred thousand footmen in one day.

updv@1Kings:20:30 @ But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and the wall fell on twenty and seven thousand men who were left. And Ben-hadad fled, and came into the city, into an inner chamber.

updv@1Kings:20:31 @ And his slaves said to him, Look now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings: let us, we pray you, put sackcloth on our loins, and ropes on our heads, and go out to the king of Israel: perhaps he will save your life.

updv@1Kings:20:32 @ So they girded sackcloth on their loins, and [put] ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, Your slave Ben-hadad says, I pray you, let me live. And he said, Is he yet alive? He is my brother.

updv@1Kings:20:33 @ Now the men were using magic, and hurried to catch whether it was his mind; and they said, Your brother Ben-hadad. Then he said, Go(note:){+}(:note), bring him. Then Ben-hadad came forth to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.

updv@1Kings:20:34 @ And [Ben-hadad] said to him, The cities which my father took from your father I will restore; and you will make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria. And I, [said Ahab], will let you go with this covenant. So he made a covenant with him, and let him go.
