1 Kings 22:6-15

22:6

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>_.

22:7

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?

22:8

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.

22:9

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}

22:10

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}

22:11

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.

22:12

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>_.

22:13

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>_.

22:14

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)_.

22:15

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>_.

1 Kings 22:32-36

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>_.
