וַיִּפְצְרוּ־ב֥וֹ עַד־בֹּ֖שׁ וַיֹּ֣אמֶר שְׁלָ֑חוּ וַֽיִּשְׁלְחוּ֙ חֲמִשִּׁ֣ים אִ֔ישׁ וַיְבַקְשׁ֥וּ שְׁלֹשָֽׁה־יָמִ֖ים וְלֹ֥א מְצָאֻֽהוּ׃
Tetapi mereka terus mendesaknya sampai ia merasa malu, lalu ia berkata, “Suruhlah mereka pergi.” Maka mereka menyuruh lima puluh orang pergi, dan orang-orang itu mencari selama tiga hari, tetapi tidak menemukannya.

Enquire ye.26This root is very often met with in the Talmud in the phrases ,אבעיו להו ,ליה בעי They or he asked a question.—A. V., Ye will enquire. Enquire ye.26This root is very often met with in the Talmud in the phrases ,אבעיו להו ,ליה בעי They or he asked a question.—A. V., Ye will enquire. Enquire ye. The root בעה to wish, to enquire, is of Chaldaic origin; the third letter of the root is here fully written, י being substituted for ה. The same is the case in בְּעָיוּ wish ye, which is like שְׁלָחוּ send (2 Kings 2:17). The meaning of the whole phrase is: If you wish to come, do so.
