31 And his servants said to him, Behold now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings: let us, I pray you, put sackcloth on our loins, and ropes upon our heads, and go out to the king of Israel: perhaps he will save your life.
32 So they girded sackcloth on their loins, and put ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, Your servant Benhadad says, I pray you, let me live. And he said, Is he still alive? he is my brother.
33 Now the men diligently observed whether anything would come from him, and hastily caught it: and they said, Your brother Benhadad. Then he said, Go, bring him. Then Benhadad came forth to him; and he brought him up into the chariot.
