Lexham English Bible

¹⁷ Then the servants of the commanders of the provinces went out first, and Ben-Hadad sent, and they reported to him, saying, “Men have come out from Samaria.” ¹⁸ Then he said, “If they have come out for peace, seize them alive; and if they have come out for war, seize them alive.” ¹⁹ But these had come out from the city, the servants of the commanders of the provinces, and the army that was after them.
