1 Kings 20:22-24

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²² The prophet came to the king of Israel and said to him, Go, fortify yourself and become strong and give attention to what you must do, for at the first of next year the king of Syria will return against you.

²³ And the servants of the king of Syria said to him, Israel’s gods are gods of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we. But let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they.

²⁴ And do this thing: Remove the kings, each from his place, and put governors in their stead.
