1 Kings 22:24-53

22:24

But Zedekiah
<06667>

the son
<01121>

of Chenaanah
<03668>

went near
<05066> (8799)_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

Micaiah
<04321>

on the cheek
<03895>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Which way
<0335>

went
<05674> (8804)

the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

from me to speak
<01696> (8763)

unto thee?

22:25

And Micaiah
<04321>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, thou shalt see
<07200> (8802)

in that day
<03117>_,

when thou shalt go
<0935> (8799)

into an inner
<02315>

chamber
<02315>

to hide
<02247> (8736)

thyself. {into...: or, from chamber to chamber: Heb. a chamber in a chamber}

22:26

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

Micaiah
<04321>_,

and carry him back
<07725> (8685)

unto Amon
<0526>

the governor
<08269>

of the city
<05892>_,

and to Joash
<03101>

the king's
<04428>

son
<01121>_;

22:27

And say
<0559> (8804)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the king
<04428>_,

Put
<07760> (8798)

this [fellow] in the prison
<01004> <03608>_,

and feed
<0398> (8685)

him with bread
<03899>

of affliction
<03906>

and with water
<04325>

of affliction
<03906>_,

until I come
<0935> (8800)

in peace
<07965>_.

22:28

And Micaiah
<04321>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

If thou return
<07725> (8799)

at all
<07725> (8800)

in peace
<07965>_,

the LORD
<03068>

hath not spoken
<01696> (8765)

by me. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hearken
<08085> (8798)_,

O people
<05971>_,

every one of you.

22:29

So the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

and Jehoshaphat
<03092>

the king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

went up
<05927> (8799)

to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_.

22:30

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

I will disguise
<02664> (8692)

myself, and enter
<0935> (8800)

into the battle
<04421>_;

but put thou on
<03847> (8798)

thy robes
<0899>_.

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

disguised
<02664> (8691)

himself, and went
<0935> (8799)

into the battle
<04421>_.

{I will...: or, when he was to disguise himself, and enter into the battle}

22:31

But the king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

his thirty
<07970>

and two
<08147>

captains
<08269>

that had rule over his chariots
<07393>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Fight
<03898> (8735)

neither with small
<06996>

nor great
<01419>_,

save only with the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

22:32

And it came to pass, when the captains
<08269>

of the chariots
<07393>

saw
<07200> (8800)

Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

that they said
<0559> (8804)_,

Surely it [is] the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

And they turned aside
<05493> (8799)

to fight
<03898> (8736)

against him: and Jehoshaphat
<03092>

cried out
<02199> (8799)_.

22:33

And it came to pass, when the captains
<08269>

of the chariots
<07393>

perceived
<07200> (8800)

that it [was] not the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

that they turned back
<07725> (8799)

from pursuing
<0310>

him.

22:34

And a [certain] man
<0376>

drew
<04900> (8804)

a bow
<07198>

at a venture
<08537>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

between the joints
<01694>

of the harness
<08302>_:

wherefore he said
<0559> (8799)

unto the driver of his chariot
<07395>_,

Turn
<02015> (8798)

thine hand
<03027>_,

and carry me out
<03318> (8685)

of the host
<04264>_;

for I am wounded
<02470> (8717)_.

{at a...: Heb. in his simplicity} {joints...: Heb. joints and the breastplate} {wounded: Heb. made sick}

22:35

And the battle
<04421>

increased
<05927> (8799)

that day
<03117>_:

and the king
<04428>

was stayed up
<05975> (8716)

in his chariot
<04818>

against
<05227>

the Syrians
<0758>_,

and died
<04191> (8799)

at even
<06153>_:

and the blood
<01818>

ran out
<03332> (8799)

of the wound
<04347>

into the midst
<02436>

of the chariot
<07393>_.

{increased: Heb. ascended} {midst: Heb. bosom}

22:36

And there went
<05674> (8799)

a proclamation
<07440>

throughout the host
<04264>

about the going down
<0935> (8800)

of the sun
<08121>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Every man
<0376>

to his city
<05892>_,

and every man
<0376>

to his own country
<0776>_.

22:37

So the king
<04428>

died
<04191> (8799)_,

and was brought
<0935> (8799)

to Samaria
<08111>_;

and they buried
<06912> (8799)

the king
<04428>

in Samaria
<08111>_.

{was brought: Heb. came}

22:38

And [one] washed
<07857> (8799)

the chariot
<07393>

in the pool
<01295>

of Samaria
<08111>_;

and the dogs
<03611>

licked up
<03952> (8799)

his blood
<01818>_;

and they washed
<07364> (8804)

his armour
<02185>_;

according unto the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

which he spake
<01696> (8765)_.

22:39

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Ahab
<0256>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

and the ivory
<08127>

house
<01004>

which he made
<01129> (8804)_,

and all the cities
<05892>

that he built
<01129> (8804)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_?

22:40

So Ahab
<0256>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_;

and Ahaziah
<0274>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

22:41

And Jehoshaphat
<03092>

the son
<01121>

of Asa
<0609>

began to reign
<04427> (8804)

over Judah
<03063>

in the fourth
<0702>

year
<08141>

of Ahab
<0256>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

22:42

Jehoshaphat
<03092>

[was] thirty
<07970>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_;

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

twenty
<06242>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Azubah
<05806>

the daughter
<01323>

of Shilhi
<07977>_.

22:43

And he walked
<03212> (8799)

in all the ways
<01870>

of Asa
<0609>

his father
<01>_;

he turned not aside
<05493> (8804)

from it, doing
<06213> (8800)

[that which was] right
<03477>

in the eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

nevertheless the high places
<01116>

were not taken away
<05493> (8804)_;

[for] the people
<05971>

offered
<02076> (8764)

and burnt incense
<06999> (8764)

yet in the high places
<01116>_.

22:44

And Jehoshaphat
<03092>

made peace
<07999> (8686)

with the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

22:45

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

and his might
<01369>

that he shewed
<06213> (8804)_,

and how he warred
<03898> (8738)_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_?

22:46

And the remnant
<03499>

of the sodomites
<06945>_,

which remained
<07604> (8738)

in the days
<03117>

of his father
<01>

Asa
<0609>_,

he took
<01197> (8765)

out of the land
<0776>_.

22:47

[There was] then no king
<04428>

in Edom
<0123>_:

a deputy
<05324> (8737)

[was] king
<04428>_.

22:48

Jehoshaphat
<03092>

made
<06213> (8804) (8675) <06240>

ships
<0591>

of Tharshish
<08659>

to go
<03212> (8800)

to Ophir
<0211>

for gold
<02091>_:

but they went
<01980> (8804)

not; for the ships
<0591>

were broken
<07665> (8738)

at Eziongeber
<06100>_.

{made...: or, had ten ships}

22:49

Then said
<0559> (8804)

Ahaziah
<0274>

the son
<01121>

of Ahab
<0256>

unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

Let my servants
<05650>

go
<03212> (8799)

with thy servants
<05650>

in the ships
<0591>_.

But Jehoshaphat
<03092>

would
<014> (8804)

not.

22:50

And Jehoshaphat
<03092>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

with his fathers
<01>

in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_:

and Jehoram
<03088>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead.

22:51

Ahaziah
<0274>

the son
<01121>

of Ahab
<0256>

began to reign
<04427> (8804)

over Israel
<03478>

in Samaria
<08111>

the seventeenth
<07651> <06240>

year
<08141>

of Jehoshaphat
<03092>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and reigned
<04427> (8799)

two years
<08141>

over Israel
<03478>_.

22:52

And he did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and walked
<03212> (8799)

in the way
<01870>

of his father
<01>_,

and in the way
<01870>

of his mother
<0517>_,

and in the way
<01870>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Nebat
<05028>_,

who made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_:

22:53

For he served
<05647> (8799)

Baal
<01168>_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)

him, and provoked to anger
<03707> (8686)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

according to all that his father
<01>

had done
<06213> (8804)_.
