Our recommendation to the king: their gods are gods of the hills. That is why they beat us. Fight them on the plain and we will win. An army the size of the one we lost, horse for horse, chariot for chariot.

We had heard Israel’s kings are merciful. So we went out to him with sackcloth round our waists and ropes on our heads: your servant Ben-hadad begs for his life. The king of Israel replies: is he still alive? He is my brother. We seized on that. Yes! Your brother Ben-hadad!
