1 Kings 20:40-42
New International Version
40 While your servant was busy here and there, the man disappeared.”
“That is your sentence,”(A) the king of Israel said. “You have pronounced it yourself.”
41 Then the prophet quickly removed the headband from his eyes, and the king of Israel recognized him as one of the prophets. 42 He said to the king, “This is what the Lord says: ‘You(B) have set free a man I had determined should die.[a](C) Therefore it is your life for his life,(D) your people for his people.’”
