Now Jehoshaphat
had riches
and honour
in abundance,
and joined affinity
with Ahab.
And after
certain years
he went down
to Ahab
to Samaria.
And Ahab
killed
sheep
and oxen
for him in abundance,
and for the people
that he had with him, and persuaded
him to go up
with him to Ramothgilead.

And Ahab
king

said
unto Jehoshaphat

Wilt thou go
with me to Ramothgilead?
And he answered
him, I am as thou art, and my people
as thy people;
and we will be with thee in the war.

Therefore the king

gathered together

four
hundred
men,
and said
unto them, Shall we go
to Ramothgilead
to battle,
or shall I forbear?
And they said,
Go up;
for God
will deliver
it into the king's

But Jehoshaphat
said,
Is there not here a prophet
of the LORD
besides, that we might enquire
of him?
And the king
of Israel
said
unto Jehoshaphat,
There is yet one
man,
by whom we may enquire
of the LORD:
but I hate
him; for he never prophesied
good
unto me, but always
evil:
the same is Micaiah
the son
of Imla.
And Jehoshaphat
said,
Let not the king
say
so.

And the king
of Israel
and Jehoshaphat
king
of Judah
sat
either
of them on his throne,
clothed
in their robes,
and they sat
in a void place
at the entering in
of the gate
of Samaria;
and all the prophets
prophesied
before
them.
And Zedekiah
the son
of Chenaanah
had made
him horns
of iron,
and said,
Thus saith
the LORD,
With these thou shalt push
Syria
until they be consumed.

And all the prophets
prophesied
so, saying,
Go up
to Ramothgilead,
and prosper:
for the LORD
shall deliver
it into the hand
of the king.
And the messenger
that went
to call
Micaiah
spake
to him, saying,
Behold, the words
of the prophets
declare good
to the king
with one
assent;
let thy word
therefore, I pray thee, be like one
of theirs, and speak
thou good.

And Micaiah

saith,

And when he was come
to the king,
the king
said
unto him, Micaiah,
shall we go
to Ramothgilead
to battle,
or shall I forbear?
And he said,
Go ye up,
and prosper,
and they shall be delivered
into your hand.

And the king
said
to him, How many times
shall I adjure
thee that thou say
nothing but the truth
to me in the name
of the LORD?
Then he said,
I did see
all Israel
scattered
upon the mountains,
as sheep
that have no shepherd:
and the LORD
said,
These have no master;
let them return
therefore every man
to his house
in peace.
say
say
And the king
of Israel
said
to Jehoshaphat,
Did I not tell
thee that he would not prophesy
good
unto me, but evil?
Again he said,
Therefore hear
the word
of the LORD;
I saw
the LORD
sitting
upon his throne,
and all the host
of heaven
standing
on his right hand
and on his left.
say
And the LORD
said,
Who shall entice
Ahab
king
of Israel,
that he may go up
and fall
at Ramothgilead?
And one spake
saying
after this manner,
and another saying
after that manner.

Then there came out
a spirit,
and stood
before
the LORD,
and said,
I will entice
him. And the LORD
said
unto him, Wherewith?
And he said,
I will go out,
and be a lying
spirit
in the mouth
of all his prophets.
And the LORD said,
Thou shalt entice
him, and thou shalt also prevail:
go out,
and do
even so.
Now therefore, behold, the LORD
hath put
a lying
spirit
in the mouth
of these thy prophets,
and the LORD
hath spoken
evil
against thee.
Then Zedekiah
the son
of Chenaanah
came near,
and smote
Micaiah
upon 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
on that day
when thou shalt go
into an inner
chamber
to hide
thyself.
Then the king
of Israel
said,
Take
ye Micaiah,
and carry him back
to 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 return
in peace.
say
And Micaiah
said,
If thou certainly
return
in peace,
then hath not the LORD
spoken
by me. And he said,
Hearken,
all ye people.
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 will go
to the battle;
but put
thou on thy robes.
So the king
of Israel
disguised
himself; and they went
to the battle.
say
Now the king
of Syria
had commanded
the captains
of the chariots
that were with him, saying,
Fight
ye not with small
or great,
save only with the king
of Israel.
And it came to pass, when the captains
of the chariots
saw
Jehoshaphat,
that they said,
It is the king
of Israel.
Therefore they compassed about
him to fight:
but Jehoshaphat
cried out,
and the LORD
helped
him; and God
moved
them to depart from him.
say
For it came to pass, that, when the captains
of the chariots
perceived
that it was not the king
of Israel,
they turned back again
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:
therefore he said
to his chariot
man,
Turn
thine hand,
that thou mayest carry me out
of the host;
for I am wounded.

he died.
