See how this man is seeking trouble, for he sent to me for my wives, my children, my silver, and my gold, and I did not refuse him.”(A) 8 Then all the elders and all the people said to him, “Do not listen or consent.” 9 So he said to the messengers of Ben-hadad, “Tell my lord the king: All that you first demanded of your servant I will do, but this thing I cannot do.” The messengers left and brought him word again. 10 Ben-hadad sent to him and said, “The gods do so to me and more also, if the dust of Samaria will provide a handful for each of the people who follow me.”(B) 11 The king of Israel answered, “Enough![b] One who puts on armor should not brag like one who takes it off.”(C)

11 The king of Israel answered, “Tell him: ‘One who puts on his armor should not boast(D) like one who takes it off.’”
