Now the king of Aram had ordered his thirty-two chariot commanders,“ Do not fight with anyone, small or great, except the king of Israel.”

The king of Aram had given an order to his 32 chariot commanders. He had said,“ Fight only against the king of Israel. Don’t fight against anyone else.”

Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots,“ Fight with neither small nor great, but only with the king of Israel.”

Meanwhile, the king of Aram had issued these orders to his thirty two chariot commanders:“ Attack only the king of Israel. Don’t bother with anyone else!”

Now King Ben-hadad of Aram assembled his entire army. Thirty-two kings, along with horses and chariots, were with him. He marched up, besieged Samaria, and fought against it.

They also had kidnapped the women and everyone in it from youngest to oldest. They had killed no one but had carried them off as they went on their way.

Now the men were looking for a sign of hope, so they quickly picked up on this and responded,“ Yes, it is your brother Ben-hadad.” Then he said,“ Go and bring him.” So Ben-hadad came out to him, and Ahab had him come up into the chariot.Then Ben-hadad said to him,“ I restore to you the cities that my father took from your father, and you may set up marketplaces for yourself in Damascus, like my father set up in Samaria.” Ahab responded,“ On the basis of this treaty, I release you.” So he made a treaty with him and released him.One of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow prophet by the word of the LORD,“ Strike me!” But the man refused to strike him.He told him,“ Because you did not listen to the LORD, mark my words: When you leave me, a lion will kill you.” When he left him, a lion attacked and killed him.The prophet found another man and said to him,“ Strike me!” So the man struck him, inflicting a wound.Then the prophet went and waited for the king on the road. He disguised himself with a bandage over his eyes.As the king was passing by, he cried out to the king and said,“ Your servant marched out into the middle of the battle. Suddenly, a man turned aside and brought someone to me and said,‘ Guard this man! If he is ever missing, it will be your life in place of his life, or you will weigh out seventy-five pounds of silver.’But while your servant was busy here and there, he disappeared.” The king of Israel said to him,“ That will be your sentence; you yourself have decided it.”He quickly removed the bandage from his eyes. The king of Israel recognized that he was one of the prophets.The prophet said to him,“ This is what the LORD says:‘ Because you released from your hand the man I had set apart for destruction, it will be your life in place of his life and your people in place of his people.’”

They struck the men who were at the entrance of the house, both young and old, with blindness so that they were unable to find the entrance.

“ Both great and small will die in this land without burial. No lament will be made for them, nor will anyone cut himself or shave his head for them.

They marched out at noon while Ben-hadad and the thirty-two kings who were helping him were getting drunk in their quarters.
