1 Kings 20:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ The young officers of the district governors attacked first.

Ben-Hadad’s scouts told him that soldiers were coming from Samaria. ¹⁸ So Ben-Hadad said, “They may be coming to fight. Or they may be coming to ask for peace. In either case capture them alive.”

¹⁹ The young officers of the district governors led the attack. The army of Israel followed them.
