And they continued
three
years
without war
between Syria
and Israel.
And it came to pass in the third
year,
that Jehoshaphat
the king
of Judah
came down
to the king
of Israel.
And the king
of Israel
said
unto his servants,
Know
ye that Ramoth
in Gilead
is ours, and we be still,
and take
it not out of the hand
of the king
of Syria?

as thy people,

as thy horses.

Enquire,

Then the king
of Israel
gathered
the prophets
together,
about four
hundred
men,
and said
unto them, Shall I go
against Ramothgilead
to battle,
or shall I forbear?
And they said,
Go up;
for the Lord
shall deliver
it into the hand
of the king.

And Jehoshaphat
said,
Is there not here a prophet

besides,
that we might enquire
of him?
And the king
of Israel
said
unto Jehoshaphat,
There is yet one
man,
Micaiah
the son
of Imlah,
by whom we may enquire
of the LORD:
but I hate
him; for he doth not prophesy
good
concerning me, but evil.
And Jehoshaphat
said,
Let not the king
say
so.

Then the king

And the king
of Israel
and Jehoshaphat
the king
of Judah
sat
each
on his throne,
having put on
their robes,
in a void place
in the entrance
of the gate
of Samaria;
and all the prophets
prophesied
before
them.

With these shalt thou push

until thou have consumed
them.

And the messenger

to call
Micaiah
spake
unto him, saying,
Behold now, the words

declare good
unto the king
with one
mouth:
let thy word,
I pray thee, be like the word
of one
of them, and speak
that which is good.

So he came

And the king
said
unto him, Micaiah,
shall we go
against Ramothgilead
to battle,
or shall we forbear?
And he answered
him, Go,
and prosper:
for the LORD
shall deliver
it into the hand
of the king.

thee that thou tell
me nothing but that which is true
in the name
of the LORD?
And he said,
I saw
all Israel
scattered
upon the hills,
as sheep
that have not a shepherd:
and the LORD
said,
These have no master:
let them return
every man
to his house
in peace.

And the king
of Israel
said
unto Jehoshaphat,
Did I not tell
thee that he would prophesy
no good
concerning me, but evil?
And he said,
Hear
thou therefore the word
of the LORD:
I saw
the LORD
sitting
on his throne,
and all the host
of heaven
standing
by him on his right hand
and on his left.
say

And the LORD
said,
Who shall persuade
Ahab,
that he may go up
and fall
at Ramothgilead?
And one said
on this manner,
and another said
on that manner.

And there came forth
a spirit,
and stood
before
the LORD,
and said,
I will persuade
him.
And the LORD
said
unto him, Wherewith? And he said,
I will go forth,
and I will be a lying
spirit
in the mouth
of all his prophets.
And he said,
Thou shalt persuade
him, and prevail
also: go forth,
and do
so.

say
Now therefore, behold, the LORD
hath put
a lying
spirit
in the mouth
of all these thy prophets,
and the LORD
hath spoken
evil
concerning thee.
But Zedekiah
the son
of Chenaanah
went near,
and smote
Micaiah
on the cheek,
and said,
Which way
went
the Spirit
of the LORD
from me to speak
unto thee?
And Micaiah
said,
Behold, thou shalt see
in that day,
when thou shalt go
into an inner
chamber
to hide
thyself.
And the king
of Israel
said,
Take
Micaiah,
and carry him back
unto Amon
the governor
of the city,
and to Joash
the king's
son;

And say,
Thus saith
the king,
Put
this fellow in the prison,
and feed
him with bread
of affliction
and with water
of affliction,
until I come
in peace.
And Micaiah
said,
If thou return
at all
in peace,
the LORD
hath not spoken
by me. And he said,
Hearken,
O people,
every one of you.
So the king
of Israel
and Jehoshaphat
the king
of Judah
went up
to Ramothgilead.
And the king
of Israel
said
unto Jehoshaphat,
I will disguise
myself, and enter
into the battle;
but put thou on
thy robes.
And the king
of Israel
disguised
himself, and went
into the battle.
say
But the king
of Syria
commanded
his thirty
and two
captains
that had rule over his chariots,
saying,
Fight
neither with small
nor great,
save only with the king
of Israel.
And it came to pass, when the captains
of the chariots
saw
Jehoshaphat,
that they said,
Surely it is the king
of Israel.
And they turned aside
to fight
against him: and Jehoshaphat
cried out.
say
And it came to pass, when the captains
of the chariots
perceived
that it was not the king
of Israel,
that they turned back
from pursuing
him.
And a certain man
drew
a bow
at a venture,
and smote
the king
of Israel
between the joints
of the harness:
wherefore he said
unto the driver of his chariot,
Turn
thine hand,
and carry me out
of the host;
for I am wounded.

And there went

Every man

So the king
died,
and was brought
to Samaria;
and they buried
the king
in Samaria.
And one washed
the chariot
in the pool
of Samaria;
and the dogs
licked up
his blood;
and they washed

according unto the word
of the LORD
which he spake.

So Ahab
slept
with his fathers;
and Ahaziah
his son
reigned
in his stead.
And Jehoshaphat
the son
of Asa
began to reign
over Judah
in the fourth
year
of Ahab
king
of Israel.
Jehoshaphat
was thirty
and five
years
old
when he began to reign;
and he reigned
twenty
and five
years
in Jerusalem.
And his mother's

was Azubah

And the remnant
of the sodomites,
which remained

he took

There was then no king
in Edom:
a deputy
was king.
Jehoshaphat
made
ships
of Tharshish
to go
to Ophir
for gold:
but they went
not; for the ships
were broken
at Eziongeber.
Then said
Ahaziah
the son
of Ahab
unto Jehoshaphat,
Let my servants
go
with thy servants
in the ships.
But Jehoshaphat
would
not.
And Jehoshaphat
slept
with his fathers,
and was buried
with his fathers
in the city
of David
his father:
and Jehoram
his son
reigned
in his stead.
Ahaziah
the son
of Ahab
began to reign
over Israel
in Samaria
the seventeenth
year
of Jehoshaphat
king
of Judah,
and reigned
two years
over Israel.
