17 The young men of the princes of the provinces went out first; and Ben Hadad sent out, and they told him, saying, “Men are coming out from Samaria.”
18 He said, “If they have come out for peace, take them alive; or if they have come out for war, take them alive.”

21 The king of Israel went out, and struck the horses and chariots, and killed the Syrians with a great slaughter.
