20.10 Hæc faciant mihi. Samaria morte civitatum habebat terram interius ipsis muris pene æqualem, quo subsidio ictibus arietis resisteret extra, murorum altitudo longe superficiem terræ transcenderat. Ait ergo rex superbus obsessos terrens, quod tantam haberet multitudinem, ut si quisque militum unum lapidem vel stipitem vel cespitem ad construendum contra urbem aggerem apportasset, agger exsurgeret qui superficiei quæ erat intra muros esse videretur æqualis, ita ut ex æquo pugnantes contra civitatem tela faces mitterent. Ne glorietur accinctus. RAB. Accinctus est qui cingulo circumdatur, discinctus qui cingulum deposuit. Ait ergo rex Isræl, regi Syriæ glorianti quasi jam cepisset Samariam quam obsidere cœperat: Ne glorietur accinctus æque ut discinctus. Ac si dicat: Noli gloriari quasi victor, qui adhuc in acie positus, quem victoria sequatur ignoras: quippe qui vincere credidit, victus est.

20:10 See Prof. Lee on the word ברך in Job 2. 9. Heb. Gram. p. 92.
BrLXX Καὶ ἐγκαθίσατε δύο ἄνδρας υἱοὺς παρανόμων ἐξεναντίας αὐτοῦ, καὶ καταμαρτυρησάτωσαν αὐτοῦ, λέγοντες, εὐλόγησε Θεὸν καὶ βασιλέα· καὶ ἐξαγαγέτωσαν αὐτὸν, καὶ λιθοβολησάτωσαν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἀποθανέτω.
(Kai egkathisate duo andras huious paranomōn exenantias autou, kai katamarturaʸsatōsan autou, legontes, eulogaʸse Theon kai basilea; kai exagagetōsan auton, kai lithobolaʸsatōsan auton, kai apothanetō. )
20:10-11 Ben-hadad’s third delegation delivered an ultimatum: Surrender or die. His caustic threat to thoroughly plunder Samaria was reinforced with a curse, an example of the psychological warfare often practiced in the ancient Near East (see 2 Kgs 18:19-35).
• Ahab’s third reply to Ben-hadad contained proverbial wisdom. The outcome of the conflict was not yet sealed.
May the gods do so to me and more also
(Some words not found in UHB: and,sent to=him/it son_of הֲדַד and=he/it_said so do, to=me ʼₑlhīmv and,also more if suffice dust Shomrōn for,handful to/from=all/each/any/every the,people which/who in/on/at/with,feet,me )
This is an oath with great emphasis. See how you translated this in 1 Kings 19:2.
