Contextual Overview
1 Now, Ben-hadad, king of Syria, had gathered together all his forces, and, thirty-two kings, were with him, and horses and chariots, - then came he up, and laid siege to Samaria, and made war against it. 2 And he sent messengers unto Ahab king of Israel, into the city, and said to him, - Thus, saith Ben-hadad, 3 Thy silver and thy gold, are, mine, and, thy wives and thy sons, the goodliest, are, mine. 4 Then responded the king of Israel, and said, According to thy word, my lord O king! thine, am I, and all that I have. 5 And the messengers came back again, and said, Thus, speaketh Ben-hadad, saying, - Because I sent unto thee, saying, Thy silver and thy gold and thy wives and thy sons, to me, shalt thou give, 6 Therefore, about this time to-morrow, will I send my servants unto thee, and they shall search thy house, and the houses of thy servants, - and it shall be, that, all the delight of thine eyes, shall they put in their hand, and take away. 7 Then called the king of Israel, for all the elders of the land, and said - Mark, I pray you, and see, how this man is seeking, mischief, - for he had sent unto me, for my wives, and for my sons, and for my silver, and for my gold, and I refused him not. 8 And all the elders and all the people said unto him, - Do not thou hearken, neither do thou consent. 9 So he said unto the messengers of Ben-hadad - Say ye to my lord the king, - All that thou didst send for, to thy servant at the first, will I do, but, this thing, I cannot do. And the messengers departed, and took him back word. 10 Then Ben-hadad sent unto him and said, - So, let the gods do to me, and, so, let them add, - if the dust of Samaria suffice by handfuls, for all the people who are at my feet.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the king of Israel answered and said, my lord, O king,.... So he said to Benhadad's messengers, representing him, as acknowledging his sovereignty over him:
according to thy saying, I am thine, and all that I have: which he understood of holding all that he had of him, by giving him homage, and paying him tribute; not that he was to deliver all his substance, and especially his wives and children, into his hands.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 20:4. I am thine, and all that I have. — He probably hoped by this humiliation to soften this barbarous king, and perhaps to get better conditions.
