Good News Translation

¹⁶ The attack began at noon, as Benhadad and his thirty-two allies were getting drunk in their tents. ¹⁷ The young soldiers advanced first. Scouts sent out by Benhadad reported to him that a group of soldiers was coming out of Samaria. ¹⁸ He ordered, “Take them alive, no matter whether they are coming to fight or to ask for peace.”
