The Lord Delivers Israel Now a prophet visited King Ahab of Israel and said,“This is what the LORD has said,‘Do you see this huge army? Look, I am going to hand it over to you this very day. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”
Ahab asked,“By whom will this be accomplished?” He answered,“This is what the LORD has said,‘By the servants of the district governors.’” Ahab asked,“Who will launch the attack?” He answered,“You will.”
So Ahab assembled the 232 servants of the district governors. After that he assembled all the Israelite army, numbering 7,000.
They marched out at noon, while Ben Hadad and the thirty-two kings allied with him were drinking heavily in their quarters.
The servants of the district governors led the march. When Ben Hadad sent messengers, they reported back to him,“Men are marching out of Samaria.”
He ordered,“Whether they come in peace or to do battle, take them alive.”
They marched out of the city with the servants of the district governors in the lead and the army behind them.
