Would you ^[c](A)kill those you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? ^(B)Set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master.” ²³ So he prepared a great feast for them; and when they had eaten and drunk he sent them away, and they went to their master. And ^(C)the marauding bands of Arameans did not come again into the land of Israel.
