1 Kings 20:9 in Context — 1 Kings 20
7 Então o rei de Israel chamou a todos os anciãos da terra, e disse-lhes: Entendei, e vede agora como este não busca a não ser mal: pois que enviou a mim por minhas mulheres e meus filhos, e por minha prata e por meu ouro; e eu não se o neguei.
8 E todos os anciãos e todo o povo lhe responderam: Não lhe obedeças, nem faças o que te pede.
9 Então ele respondeu aos embaixadores de Ben-Hadade: Dizei ao rei meu senhor: Farei tudo o que mandaste a teu servo ao princípio; mas isto não posso fazer. E os embaixadores foram, e deram-lhe a resposta.
10 E Ben-Hadade converteu a enviar-lhe a dizer: Assim me façam os deuses, e assim me acrescentem, que o pó de Samaria não bastará aos punhos de todo o povo que me segue.
11 E o rei de Israel respondeu, e disse: Dizei-lhe, que não se glorie o que se cinge, como o que já se descinge.
