9 Busa siya miingon sa mga sinugo ni Ben-adad: Suginli ang akong ginoong hari, nga ang tanan nga imong gikinahanglan pinaagi sa imong alagad sa sinugdan akong buhaton; apan kining butanga dili nako mahimo. Ug ang mga sinugo nanglakaw, ug gidala kaniya pag-usab ang pulong.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Wherefore he sent unto the messengers of Benhadad,.... Upon the advice the elders had given him, and encouraged thereby, though in a poor sneaking manner after all:

tell my lord the king, all that thou didst send for to thy servant at the first I will do; owning him as his lord, and himself as his servant, and promising to grant his first demand, though so insolent, in the sense he understood him, of paying tribute to him for it:

but this thing I may not do; to have not only all put into his hands, but his and his servant's houses to be searched and pillaged, because the elders of his people would not agree; and yet he seems to speak as if he himself would have submitted to it, but was restrained by his council:

and the messengers departed, and brought him word again; reported to Benhadad the answer they received from Ahab.
