H7992
And it came to pass in the third
H8141
year
H3092
, that Jehoshaphat
H4428
the king
H3063
of Judah
H3381
came down
[H8799]
H4428
to the king
H3478
of Israel.
3
H4428
And the king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
[H8799]
H5650
unto his servants
H3045
, Know
[H8804]
H7433
ye that Ramoth
H1568
in Gilead
H2814
is ours, and we be still
[H8688]
H3947
, and take
[H8800]
H3027
it not out of the hand
H4428
of the king
H758
of Syria?
4
H559
And he said
[H8799]
H3092
unto Jehoshaphat
H3212
, Wilt thou go
[H8799]
H4421
with me to battle
H7433
to Ramothgilead
H1568
H3092
? And Jehoshaphat
H559
said
[H8799]
H4428
to the king
H3478
of Israel
H3644
, I am as thou
H5971
art, my people
H5971
as thy people
H5483
, my horses
H5483
as thy horses.
5
H3092
And Jehoshaphat
H559
said
[H8799]
H4428
unto the king
H3478
of Israel
H1875
, Enquire
[H8798]
H1697
, I pray thee, at the word
H3068
of the LORD
H3117
to day.
6
H4428
Then the king
H3478
of Israel
H6908
gathered
H5030
the prophets
H6908
together
[H8799]
H702
, about four
H3967
hundred
H376
men
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H3212
unto them, Shall I go
[H8799]
H7433
against Ramothgilead
H1568
H4421
to battle
H2308
, or shall I forbear
[H8799]
H559
? And they said
[H8799]
H5927
, Go up
[H8798]
H136
; for the Lord
H5414
shall deliver
[H8799]
H3027
it into the hand
H4428
of the king.
7
H3092
And Jehoshaphat
H559
said
[H8799]
H5030
, Is there not here a prophet
H3068
of the LORD
H5750
besides
H1875
, that we might enquire
[H8799]
of him?
8
H4428
And the king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
[H8799]
H3092
unto Jehoshaphat
H259
, There is yet one
H376
man
H4321
, Micaiah
H1121
the son
H3229
of Imlah
H1875
, by whom we may enquire
[H8800]
H3068
of the LORD
H8130
: but I hate
[H8804]
H5012
him; for he doth not prophesy
[H8691]
H2896
good
H7451
concerning me, but evil
H3092
. And Jehoshaphat
H559
said
[H8799]
H4428
, Let not the king
H559
say
[H8799]
so.
9
H4428
Then the king
H3478
of Israel
H7121
called
[H8799]
H259
an
H5631
officer
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H4116
, Hasten
[H8761]
H4321
hither Micaiah
H1121
the son
H3229
of Imlah.
10
H4428
And the king
H3478
of Israel
H3092
and Jehoshaphat
H4428
the king
H3063
of Judah
H3427
sat
[H8802]
H376
each
H3678
on his throne
H3847
, having put on
[H8794]
H899
their robes
H1637
, in a void place
H6607
in the entrance
H8179
of the gate
H8111
of Samaria
H5030
; and all the prophets
H5012
prophesied
[H8693]
H6440
before them.
11
H6667
And Zedekiah
H1121
the son
H3668
of Chenaanah
H6213
made
[H8799]
H7161
him horns
H1270
of iron
H559
: and he said
[H8799]
H559
, Thus saith
[H8804]
H3068
the LORD
H5055
, With these shalt thou push
[H8762]
H758
the Syrians
H3615
, until thou have consumed
[H8763]
them.
12
H5030
And all the prophets
H5012
prophesied
[H8737]
H559
so, saying
[H8800]
H5927
, Go up
[H8798]
H7433
to Ramothgilead
H1568
H6743
, and prosper
[H8685]
H3068
: for the LORD
H5414
shall deliver
[H8804]
H4428
it into the king's
H3027
hand.
13
H4397
And the messenger
H1980
that was gone
[H8804]
H7121
to call
[H8800]
H4321
Micaiah
H1696
spake
[H8765]
H559
unto him, saying
[H8800]
H1697
, Behold now, the words
H5030
of the prophets
H2896
declare good
H4428
unto the king
H259
with one
H6310
mouth
H1697
: let thy word
H1697
, I pray thee, be like the word
H259
of one
H1696
of them, and speak
[H8765]
H2896
that which is good.
14
H4321
And Micaiah
H559
said
[H8799]
H3068
, As the LORD
H2416
liveth
H3068
, what the LORD
H559
saith
[H8799]
H1696
unto me, that will I speak
[H8762]
.
15
H935
So he came
[H8799]
H4428
to the king
H4428
. And the king
H559
said
[H8799]
H4321
unto him, Micaiah
H3212
, shall we go
[H8799]
H7433
against Ramothgilead
H1568
H4421
to battle
H2308
, or shall we forbear
[H8799]
H559
? And he answered
[H8799]
H5927
him, Go
[H8798]
H6743
, and prosper
[H8685]
H3068
: for the LORD
H5414
shall deliver
[H8804]
H3027
it into the hand
H4428
of the king.
16
H4428
And the king
H559
said
[H8799]
H6471
unto him, How many times
H7650
shall I adjure
[H8688]
H1696
thee that thou tell
[H8762]
H571
me nothing but that which is true
H8034
in the name
H3068
of the LORD?
17
H559
And he said
[H8799]
H7200
, I saw
[H8804]
H3478
all Israel
H6327
scattered
[H8737]
H2022
upon the hills
H6629
, as sheep
H7462
that have not a shepherd
[H8802]
H3068
: and the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H113
, These have no master
H7725
: let them return
[H8799]
H376
every man
H1004
to his house
H7965
in peace.
18
H4428
And the king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
[H8799]
H3092
unto Jehoshaphat
H559
, Did I not tell
[H8804]
H5012
thee that he would prophesy
[H8691]
H2896
no good
H7451
concerning me, but evil?
19
H559
And he said
[H8799]
H8085
, Hear
[H8798]
H1697
thou therefore the word
H3068
of the LORD
H7200
: I saw
[H8804]
H3068
the LORD
H3427
sitting
[H8802]
H3678
on his throne
H6635
, and all the host
H8064
of heaven
H5975
standing
[H8802]
H3225
by him on his right hand
H8040
and on his left.
20
H3068
And the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H6601
, Who shall persuade
[H8762]
H256
Ahab
H5927
, that he may go up
[H8799]
H5307
and fall
[H8799]
H7433
at Ramothgilead
H1568
H559
? And one said
[H8799]
H3541
on this manner
H559
, and another said
[H8802]
H3541
on that manner.
21
H3318
And there came forth
[H8799]
H7307
a spirit
H5975
, and stood
[H8799]
H6440
before
H3068
the LORD
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H6601
, I will persuade
[H8762]
him.
22
H3068
And the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H559
unto him, Wherewith? And he said
[H8799]
H3318
, I will go forth
[H8799]
H8267
, and I will be a lying
H7307
spirit
H6310
in the mouth
H5030
of all his prophets
H559
. And he said
[H8799]
H6601
, Thou shalt persuade
[H8762]
H3201
him, and prevail
[H8799]
H3318
also: go forth
[H8798]
H6213
, and do
[H8798]
so.
23
H3068
Now therefore, behold, the LORD
H5414
hath put
[H8804]
H8267
a lying
H7307
spirit
H6310
in the mouth
H5030
of all these thy prophets
H3068
, and the LORD
H1696
hath spoken
[H8765]
H7451
evil concerning thee.
24
H6667
But Zedekiah
H1121
the son
H3668
of Chenaanah
H5066
went near
[H8799]
H5221
, and smote
[H8686]
H4321
Micaiah
H3895
on the cheek
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H335
, Which way
H5674
went
[H8804]
H7307
the Spirit
H3068
of the LORD
H1696
from me to speak
[H8763]
unto thee?
25
H4321
And Micaiah
H559
said
[H8799]
H7200
, Behold, thou shalt see
[H8802]
H3117
in that day
H935
, when thou shalt go
[H8799]
H2315
into an inner
H2315
chamber
H2247
to hide
[H8736]
thyself.
26
H4428
And the king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
[H8799]
H3947
, Take
[H8798]
H4321
Micaiah
H7725
, and carry him back
[H8685]
H526
unto Amon
H8269
the governor
H5892
of the city
H3101
, and to Joash
H4428
the king's
H1121
son;
27
H559
And say
[H8804]
H559
, Thus saith
[H8804]
H4428
the king
H7760
, Put
[H8798]
H1004
this fellow in the prison
H3608
H398
, and feed
[H8685]
H3899
him with bread
H3906
of affliction
H4325
and with water
H3906
of affliction
H935
, until I come
[H8800]
H7965
in peace.
28
H4321
And Micaiah
H559
said
[H8799]
H7725
, If thou return
[H8799]
H7725
at all
[H8800]
H7965
in peace
H3068
, the LORD
H1696
hath not spoken
[H8765]
H559
by me. And he said
[H8799]
H8085
, Hearken
[H8798]
H5971
, O people, every one of you.
29
H4428
So the king
H3478
of Israel
H3092
and Jehoshaphat
H4428
the king
H3063
of Judah
H5927
went up
[H8799]
H7433
to Ramothgilead
H1568
.
30
H4428
And the king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
[H8799]
H3092
unto Jehoshaphat
H2664
, I will disguise
[H8692]
H935
myself, and enter
[H8800]
H4421
into the battle
H3847
; but put thou on
[H8798]
H899
thy robes
H4428
. And the king
H3478
of Israel
H2664
disguised
[H8691]
H935
himself, and went
[H8799]
H4421
into the battle.
31
H4428
But the king
H758
of Syria
H6680
commanded
[H8765]
H7970
his thirty
H8147
and two
H8269
captains
H7393
that had rule over his chariots
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H3898
, Fight
[H8735]
H6996
neither with small
H1419
nor great
H4428
, save only with the king
H3478
of Israel.
32
H8269
And it came to pass, when the captains
H7393
of the chariots
H7200
saw
[H8800]
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H559
, that they said
[H8804]
H4428
, Surely it is the king
H3478
of Israel
H5493
. And they turned aside
[H8799]
H3898
to fight
[H8736]
H3092
against him: and Jehoshaphat
H2199
cried out
[H8799]
.
33
H8269
And it came to pass, when the captains
H7393
of the chariots
H7200
perceived
[H8800]
H4428
that it was not the king
H3478
of Israel
H7725
, that they turned back
[H8799]
H310
from pursuing him.
34
H376
And a certain man
H4900
drew
[H8804]
H7198
a bow
H8537
at a venture
H5221
, and smote
[H8686]
H4428
the king
H3478
of Israel
H1694
between the joints
H8302
of the harness
H559
: wherefore he said
[H8799]
H7395
unto the driver of his chariot
H2015
, Turn
[H8798]
H3027
thine hand
H3318
, and carry me out
[H8685]
H4264
of the host
H2470
; for I am wounded
[H8717]
.
35
H4421
And the battle
H5927
increased
[H8799]
H3117
that day
H4428
: and the king
H5975
was stayed up
[H8716]
H4818
in his chariot
H5227
against
H758
the Syrians
H4191
, and died
[H8799]
H6153
at even
H1818
: and the blood
H3332
ran out
[H8799]
H4347
of the wound
H2436
into the midst
H7393
of the chariot.
