1 Raja-raja 20:9

20:9 So he said to the messengers of Ben Hadad, “Say this to my master, the king, ‘I will give you everything you demanded at first from your servant, but I am unable to agree to this latest demand.’” ³  So the messengers went back and gave their report.

[18:21]  ¹ tn Heb “How long are you going to limp around on two crutches?” (see HALOT 762 s.v. סְעִפִּים). In context this idiomatic expression refers to indecision rather than physical disability.

[18:21]  ² tn Heb “the God.”

[20:9]  ³ tn Heb “all which you sent to your servant in the beginning I will do, but this thing I am unable to do.”
