1 Kings 20:33-35

Modern English Version

³³ Now the men were diligently looking for a positive sign and quickly took hold of it, and they said, “Your brother Ben-Hadad!”

Then he said, “Go. You bring him.” Then Ben-Hadad came to him and got into the chariot.

³⁴ Ben-Hadad said to him, “I will restore the cities which my father took from your father, and you shall make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria.”

Then Ahab said, “I will send you away with this covenant.” So he made a covenant with him and sent him away.

A Prophet Condemns Ahab

³⁵ Speaking in the word of the Lord, a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his neighbor, “Strike me, please.” But the man refused to strike him.
