New American Standard Bible
Chapter 20
4And the king of Israel replied, 'As you say, my lord, O king; I am yours, as well as all that I have.' 5Then the messengers returned and said, 'Ben-hadad says this: ‘I did indeed send word to you, saying, 'You shall give me your silver, your gold, your wives, and your children'; 6but about this time tomorrow I will send my servants to you, and they will search your house and the houses of your servants; and they will take in their hands everything that is pleasing to your eyes, and take it all away.’?'King James Version
5And the messengers came again, and said, Thus speaketh Benhadad, saying, Although I have sent unto thee, saying, Thou shalt deliver me thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy children;
6Yet I will send my servants unto thee to morrow about this time, and they shall search thine house, and the houses of thy servants; and it shall be, that whatsoever is pleasant in thine eyes, they shall put it in their hand, and take it away.
7Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Mark, I pray you, and see how this man seeketh mischief: for he sent unto me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I denied him not.

6But at this time tomorrow I will send my servants to you, and they will search your palace and your servants’ houses. They will lay their hands on and take away whatever is precious to you.’"

5Soon Ben-hadad’s messengers returned again and said, 'This is what Ben-hadad says: ‘I have already demanded that you give me your silver, gold, wives, and children.
6But about this time tomorrow I will send my officials to search your palace and the homes of your officials. They will take away everything you consider valuable!’'
