Ben Hadad the king of Syria gathered all his army together; and there were thirty-two kings with him, with horses and chariots.
He went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
He sent messengers into the city to Ahab king of Israel and said to him, “Ben Hadad says, ‘Your silver and your gold are mine.
Your wives also and your children, even the best, are mine.’”
The king of Israel answered, “It is according to your saying, my lord, O king.
I am yours, and all that I have.”
