1 Kings 20:34

Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible

And [Ben-hadad] said unto him: ‘The cities which my father took from thy father I will restore; and thou shalt make streets for thee in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria.’ 'And I, said Ahab, will let thee go with this covenant.’ So he made a covenant with him, and let him go.
Ben-hadad said to him, “I will restore the cities my father took from your father; you may set up your own marketplaces in Damascus, as my father did in Samaria.” “By this treaty (note: Forms of the Hebrew berit are translated in most passages as covenant; twice in this verse.) I release you,” Ahab replied. So he made a treaty with him and sent him away.
