Melachim Alef 20:17-19

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁷ And the na’arei sarei hamedinot went out first; and Ben-Hadad sent out, and they reported to him, saying, There are anashim come out from Shomron.

¹⁸ And he said, Whether they be come out for shalom, take them chayyim (alive); or whether they be come out for milchamah, take them chayyim (alive).

¹⁹ So these na’arei sarei hamedinot came out of the Ir, and the army which followed them.
