1 Kings 20:18

Arise, and go down to meet Achaab king of Israel, who is in Samaria, for he [is] in the vineyard of Nabuthai, for he has gone down there to take possession of it.

And he said, Whether they be come out for peace, take them alive; or whether they be come out for war, take them alive.

He said, “If they have come out for peace, take them alive; or if they have come out for war, take them alive.”
