- Benhadad:
- "And Benhadadª the kingª of Syriaª gathered²° all his host² together:ª°¹¹¹ and [there were] thirtyª and twoª kingsª with¹ him, and horses,ª and chariots:ª and he went upª° and besiegedª°¹ Samaria,ª and warredª° against it. ... And the messengersª came again,ª° and said,ª° Thus¹ speakethª° Benhadad,ª saying,ª° Although¹ I have sentª° unto¹ thee, saying,ª° Thou shalt deliverª° me thy silver,ª and thy gold,ª and thy wives,ª and thy children;ª" {1Kg 20:1-5} + "Now the men²¹ did diligently observeª° whether [any thing would come] from¹ him, and did hastilyª° catchª° [it]: and they said,ª° Thy brotherª Benhadad.ª Then he said,ª° Goª° ye, bringª° him. Then Benhadadª came forthª° to¹ him; and he caused him to come upª° into¹ the chariot.ª ... And [Benhadad] saidª° unto¹ him, The cities,ª which¹ my fatherª tookª° from¹¹ thy father,ª I will restore;ª° and thou shalt makeª° streetsª for thee in Damascus,ª as¹ my fatherª madeª° in Samaria.ª Then [said Ahab], I¹ will send thee awayª° with this covenant.ª So he madeª° a covenantª with him, and sent him away.ª°" {1Kg 20:33-34} + "And Elishaª cameª° to Damascus;ª and Benhadadª the kingª of Syriaª was sick;ª° and it was toldª° him, saying,ª° The manª of Godª is comeª° hither.ª¹ ... And it came to pass¹ on the morrow,ª¹ that he tookª° a thick cloth,ª and dippedª° [it] in water,ª and spreadª° [it] on¹ his face,ª so that he died:ª° and Hazaelª reignedª° in his stead.¹" {2Kg 8:7-15}
