1 Kings 22:1-16

And they continued
<03427> (8799)
three
<07969>
years
<08141>
without war
<04421>
between Syria
<0758>
and Israel
<03478>_.
And it came to pass in the third
<07992>
year
<08141>_,
that Jehoshaphat
<03092>
the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
came down
<03381> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto his servants
<05650>_,
Know
<03045> (8804)
ye that Ramoth
<07433>
in Gilead
<01568>
[is] ours, and we [be] still
<02814> (8688)_,
[and] take
<03947> (8800)
it not out of the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_?
{still...: Heb. silent from taking it}
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,
Wilt thou go
<03212> (8799)
with me to battle
<04421>
to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_?
And Jehoshaphat
<03092>
said
<0559> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
I [am] as thou
<03644>
[art], my people
<05971>
as thy people
<05971>_,
my horses
<05483>
as thy horses
<05483>_.
And Jehoshaphat
<03092>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Enquire
<01875> (8798)_,
I pray thee, at the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
to day
<03117>_.
Then the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
gathered
<06908> (0)
the prophets
<05030>
together
<06908> (8799)_,
about four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
men
<0376>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Shall I go
<03212> (8799)
against Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>
to battle
<04421>_,
or shall I forbear
<02308> (8799)_?
And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Go up
<05927> (8798)_;
for the Lord
<0136>
shall deliver
<05414> (8799)
[it] into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>_.
And Jehoshaphat
<03092>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is there] not here a prophet
<05030>
of the LORD
<03068>
besides
<05750>_,
that we might enquire
<01875> (8799)
of him?
And the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,
[There is] yet one
<0259>
man
<0376>_,
Micaiah
<04321>
the son
<01121>
of Imlah
<03229>_,
by whom we may enquire
<01875> (8800)
of the LORD
<03068>_:
but I hate
<08130> (8804)
him; for he doth not prophesy
<05012> (8691)
good
<02896>
concerning me, but evil
<07451>_.
And Jehoshaphat
<03092>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let not the king
<04428>
say
<0559> (8799)
so.
Then the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
called
<07121> (8799)
an
<0259>
officer
<05631>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Hasten
<04116> (8761)
[hither] Micaiah
<04321>
the son
<01121>
of Imlah
<03229>_.
{officer: or, eunuch}
And the king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
and Jehoshaphat
<03092>
the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
sat
<03427> (8802)
each
<0376>
on his throne
<03678>_,
having put on
<03847> (8794)
their robes
<0899>_,
in a void place
<01637>
in the entrance
<06607>
of the gate
<08179>
of Samaria
<08111>_;
and all the prophets
<05030>
prophesied
<05012> (8693)
before
<06440>
them. {void...: Heb. floor}
And Zedekiah
<06667>
the son
<01121>
of Chenaanah
<03668>
made
<06213> (8799)
him horns
<07161>
of iron
<01270>_:
and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
With these shalt thou push
<05055> (8762)
the Syrians
<0758>_,
until thou have consumed
<03615> (8763)
them.
And all the prophets
<05030>
prophesied
<05012> (8737)
so, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go up
<05927> (8798)
to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_,
and prosper
<06743> (8685)_:
for the LORD
<03068>
shall deliver
<05414> (8804)
[it] into the king's
<04428>
hand
<03027>_.
And the messenger
<04397>
that was gone
<01980> (8804)
to call
<07121> (8800)
Micaiah
<04321>
spake
<01696> (8765)
unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold now, the words
<01697>
of the prophets
<05030>
[declare] good
<02896>
unto the king
<04428>
with one
<0259>
mouth
<06310>_:
let thy word
<01697>_,
I pray thee, be like the word
<01697>
of one
<0259>
of them, and speak
<01696> (8765)
[that which is] good
<02896>_.
And Micaiah
<04321>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
[As] the LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
what the LORD
<03068>
saith
<0559> (8799)
unto me, that will I speak
<01696> (8762)_.
So he came
<0935> (8799)
to the king
<04428>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Micaiah
<04321>_,
shall we go
<03212> (8799)
against Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>
to battle
<04421>_,
or shall we forbear
<02308> (8799)_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)
him, Go
<05927> (8798)_,
and prosper
<06743> (8685)_:
for the LORD
<03068>
shall deliver
<05414> (8804)
[it] into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, How many times
<06471>
shall I adjure
<07650> (8688)
thee that thou tell
<01696> (8762)
me nothing but [that which is] true
<0571>
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
