1 Kings 20:12-14

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² When he heard this message, Ben Hadad and his kings were in their tents drinking. He said to his servants, “Get ready!” and they took up positions against the city.

¹³ But then, at that time, a prophet came to Ahab king of Israel and said, “This is what the Lord says. Do you see all of this huge horde?^[a] Look, I am giving it into your hands today. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”

¹⁴ Then Ahab said, “Through whom will this happen?”

The prophet answered, “This is what the Lord says. It will be through the young officers from the provinces.”

He said, “Who will start the battle?”

He said, “You will.”
