Cuando el rey pasaba, clamó al rey y dijo: Tu siervo fue al centro de la batalla; y he aquí, un hombre se apartó de las filas y me trajo a uno, y me dijo: "Guarda a este hombre; si por alguna razón llega a faltar, entonces tu vida responderá por su vida o pagarás un talento de plata."
Kings 20:39"> 39 Y como el rey pasaba, él dió voces al rey, y dijo: Tu siervo salió entre la tropa: y he aquí apartándose uno, trájome un hombre, diciendo: Guarda á este hombre, y si llegare á faltar, tu vida será por la suya, ó pagarás un talento de plata.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And as the king passed by, he cried unto the king,.... With a loud voice, signifying he had something to say unto him, at which he stopped:
and he said, thy servant went out into the midst of the battle; this was not real, but fictitious, an apologue, fable, or parable, by which he would represent to Ahab his own case, and bring him under conviction of his folly, just as Nathan dealt with David:
and, behold, a man turned aside; a superior officer in the army:
and brought a man unto me; he had made a prisoner of:
and said, keep this man; do not let him escape:
if by any means he be missing, then shall thy life be for his life, or else thou shalt pay a talent of silver; if he let him go willingly, or by any means he should get out of his hands, then he should either die for it, or be fined a talent of silver, which of our money is three hundred and seventy five pounds; and to this it seems he agreed.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 39. Keep this man — The drift of this is at once seen; but Ahab, not knowing it, was led to pass sentence on himself.
