← 1 Kings 20:7	1 Kings 20:8 (KJV)	1 Kings 20:9 →
Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Mark, I pray you, and see how this [man] seeketh mischief: for he sent unto me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I denied him not.	And all the elders and all the people said unto him, Hearken not [unto him], nor consent.	Wherefore he said unto the messengers of Benhadad, Tell my lord the king, All that thou didst send for to thy servant at the first I will do: but this thing I may not do. And the messengers departed, and brought him word again.
