KJV - 1 Kings 20:7

Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Mark, I pray you, and see how this man seeketh mischief: for he sent unto me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I denied him not.

Then the king of Israel gathered all the important people and said, "Please watch carefully, this man is causing trouble. He asked for my wives, my children, my silver, and my gold, and I didn't say no."
