1 Re 20:4 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 20:4

And the king of Israel answered and said, my lord, O king
So he said to Benhadad's messengers, representing him, as acknowledging his sovereignty over him:

according to thy saying, I am thine, and all that I have:

2 E mandò messi ad Achab, re d’Israele, nella città, a dirgli:
3 Così dice Ben-hadad: Il tuo argento ed il tuo oro è mio; mie sono ancora le tue mogli ed i tuoi bei figliuoli.
4 E il re d’Israele rispose, e disse: Egli è come tu dici, o re, mio signore; io son tuo, insieme, con tutto quello ch’è mio.
5 Ed i messi ritornarono, e dissero: Così ha detto Ben-hadad: Anzi io ti avea mandato a dire: Dammi il tuo argento, e il tuo oro, e le tue mogli, ed i tuoi figliuoli;
6 altrimenti, domani a quest’ora io ti manderò i miei servitori, che ricercheranno la tua casa, e le case de’ tuoi servitori, e metteranno nelle mani loro tutto quello che ti è il più caro, e lo porteranno via.
