10 Then Ben-Hadad sent to him and said, a“The gods do so to me, and more also, if enough dust is left of Samaria for a handful for each of the people1 who follow me.”
11 So the king of Israel answered and said, “Tell him, ‘Let not the one who puts on his armor aboast like the one who takes it off.’ ”
12 And it happened when Ben-Hadad heard this message, as he and the kings were adrinking at the command post, that he said to his servants, “Get ready.” And they got ready to attack the city.
13 Suddenly a prophet approached Ahab king of Israel, saying, “Thus says the Lord: ‘Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, aI will deliver it into your hand today, and you shall know that I am the Lord.’ ”
14 So Ahab said, “By whom?” And he said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘By the young leaders of the provinces.’ ” Then he said, “Who will set the battle in order?” And he answered, “You.”
