H3427
They continued
H7969
three
H8141
years
H4421
without war
H758
between Syria
H3478
and Israel.
2
H7992
It happened in the third
H8141
year,
H3092
that Jehoshaphat
H4428
the king
H3063
of Judah
H3381
came down
H4428
to the king
H3478
of Israel.
3
H4428
The king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
H5650
to his servants,
H3045
"You know
H7433
that Ramoth
H1568
Gilead
H2814
is ours, and we are still,
H3947
and don't take
H3027
it out of the hand
H4428
of the king
H758
of Syria?"
4
H559
He said
H3092
to Jehoshaphat,
H3212
"Will you go
H4421
with me to battle
H7433
to Ramoth Gilead?"
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H559
said
H4428
to the king
H3478
of Israel,
H3644
"I am as you
H5971
are, my people
H5971
as your people,
H5483
my horses
H5483
as your horses."
5
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H559
said
H4428
to the king
H3478
of Israel,
H1875
"Please inquire
H3117
first
H1697
for the word
H3068
of Yahweh."
6
H4428
Then the king
H3478
of Israel
H6908
gathered
H5030
the prophets
H6908
together,
H702
about four
H3967
hundred
H376
men,
H559
and said
H3212
to them, "Shall I go
H7433
against Ramoth Gilead
H4421
to battle,
H2308
or shall I forbear?"
H559
They said,
H5927
"Go up;
H136
for the Lord
H5414
will deliver
H3027
it into the hand
H4428
of the king."
7
H3092
But Jehoshaphat
H559
said,
H5030
"Isn't there here a prophet
H3068
of Yahweh,
H5750
that
H1875
we may inquire of him?"
8
H4428
The king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
H3092
to Jehoshaphat,
H259
"There is yet one
H376
man
H1875
by whom we may inquire
H3068
of Yahweh,
H4321
Micaiah
H1121
the son
H3229
of Imlah;
H8130
but I hate
H5012
him; for he does not prophesy
H2896
good
H7451
concerning me, but evil."
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H559
said,
H4428
"Don't let the king
H559
say so."
9
H4428
Then the king
H3478
of Israel
H7121
called
H259
an
H5631
officer,
H559
and said,
H4116
"Quickly
H4321
get Micaiah
H1121
the son
H3229
of Imlah."
10
H4428
Now the king
H3478
of Israel
H3092
and Jehoshaphat
H4428
the king
H3063
of Judah
H3427
were sitting
H376
each
H3847
on
H3678
his throne,
H3847
arrayed
H899
in their robes,
H1637
in an open place
H6607
at the entrance
H8179
of the gate
H8111
of Samaria;
H5030
and all the prophets
H6440
were prophesying before them.
11
H6667
Zedekiah
H1121
the son
H3668
of Chenaanah
H6213
made
H7161
him horns
H1270
of iron,
H559
and said,
H559
"Thus says
H3068
Yahweh,
H5055
‘With these you shall push
H758
the Syrians,
H3615
until they are consumed.'"
12
H5030
All the prophets
H5012
prophesied
H559
so, saying,
H5927
"Go up
H7433
to Ramoth Gilead,
H6743
and prosper;
H3068
for Yahweh
H5414
will deliver
H3027
it into the hand
H4428
of the king."
13
H4397
The messenger
H1980
who went
H7121
to call
H4321
Micaiah
H1696
spoke
H559
to him, saying,
H5030
"See now, the prophets
H1697
declare
H2896
good
H4428
to the king
H259
with one
H6310
mouth.
H1697
Please let your word
H1697
be like the word
H259
of one
H1696
of them, and speak
H2896
good."
14
H4321
Micaiah
H559
said,
H3068
"As Yahweh
H2416
lives,
H3068
what Yahweh
H559
says
H1696
to me, that I will speak."
15
H935
When he had come
H4428
to the king,
H4428
the king
H559
said
H4321
to him, "Micaiah,
H3212
shall we go
H7433
to Ramoth Gilead
H4421
to battle,
H2308
or shall we forbear?"
H559
He answered
H5927
him, "Go
H6743
up and prosper;
H3068
and Yahweh
H5414
will deliver
H3027
it into the hand
H4428
of the king."
16
H4428
The king
H559
said
H6471
to him, "How many times
H7650
do I have to adjure
H1696
you that you speak
H571
to me nothing but the truth
H8034
in the name
H3068
of Yahweh?"
17
H559
He said,
H7200
"I saw
H3478
all Israel
H6327
scattered
H2022
on the mountains,
H6629
as sheep
H7462
that have no shepherd.
H3068
Yahweh
H559
said,
H113
‘These have no master.
H376
Let them each
H7725
return
H1004
to his house
H7965
in peace.'"
18
H4428
The king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
H3092
to Jehoshaphat,
H559
"Didn't I tell
H5012
you that he would not prophesy
H2896
good
H7451
concerning me, but evil?"
19
H559
Micaiah said,
H8085
"Therefore hear
H1697
the word
H3068
of Yahweh.
H7200
I saw
H3068
Yahweh
H3427
sitting
H3678
on his throne,
H6635
and all the army
H8064
of heaven
H5975
standing
H3225
by him on his right hand
H8040
and on his left.
20
H3068
Yahweh
H559
said,
H6601
‘Who shall entice
H256
Ahab,
H5927
that he may go up
H5307
and fall
H7433
at Ramoth Gilead?'
H559
One said
H3541
one thing;
H559
and another said
H3541
another.
21
H7307
A spirit
H3318
came out
H5975
and stood
H6440
before
H3068
Yahweh,
H559
and said,
H6601
‘I will entice him.'
22
H3068
Yahweh
H559
said
H559
to him, ‘How?' He said,
H3318
‘I will go out
H8267
and will be a lying
H7307
spirit
H6310
in the mouth
H5030
of all his prophets.'
H559
He said,
H6601
‘You will entice
H3201
him, and will also prevail.
H3318
Go out
H6213
and do so.'
23
H3068
Now therefore, behold, Yahweh
H5414
has put
H8267
a lying
H7307
spirit
H6310
in the mouth
H5030
of all these your prophets;
H3068
and Yahweh
H1696
has spoken
H7451
evil concerning you."
24
H6667
Then Zedekiah
H1121
the son
H3668
of Chenaanah
H5066
came near,
H5221
and struck
H4321
Micaiah
H3895
on the cheek,
H559
and said,
H335
"Which way
H7307
did the Spirit
H3068
of Yahweh
H5674
go
H1696
from me to speak to you?"
25
H4321
Micaiah
H559
said,
H7200
"Behold, you will see
H3117
on that day,
H935
when you go
H2315
into an inner
H2315
room
H2247
to hide yourself."
26
H4428
The king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said,
H3947
"Take
H4321
Micaiah,
H7725
and carry him back
H526
to Amon
H8269
the governor
H5892
of the city,
H3101
and to Joash
H4428
the king's
H1121
son.
27
H559
Say,
H559
‘Thus says
H4428
the king,
H7760
"Put
H1004
this fellow in the prison,
H398
and feed
H3899
him with bread
H3906
of affliction
H4325
and with water
H3906
of affliction,
H935
until I come
H7965
in peace."'"
28
H4321
Micaiah
H559
said,
H7725
"If you return
H7725
at all
H7965
in peace,
H3068
Yahweh
H1696
has not spoken
H559
by me." He said,
H8085
"Listen,
H5971
all you people!"
29
H4428
So the king
H3478
of Israel
H3092
and Jehoshaphat
H4428
the king
H3063
of Judah
H5927
went up
H7433
to Ramoth Gilead.
30
H4428
The king
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
H3092
to Jehoshaphat,
H2664
"I will disguise
H935
myself, and go
H4421
into the battle;
H3847
but you put on
H899
your robes."
H4428
The king
H3478
of Israel
H2664
disguised
H935
himself, and went
H4421
into the battle.
31
H4428
Now the king
H758
of Syria
H6680
had commanded
H7970
the thirty -
H8147
two
H8269
captains
H7393
of his chariots,
H559
saying,
H3898
Fight
H6996
neither with small
H1419
nor great,
H4428
except only with the king
H3478
of Israel.
32
H8269
It happened, when the captains
H7393
of the chariots
H7200
saw
H3092
Jehoshaphat,
H559
that they said,
H4428
"Surely that is the king
H3478
of Israel!"
H5493
and they turned aside
H3898
to fight
H3092
against him. Jehoshaphat
H2199
cried out.
33
H8269
It happened, when the captains
H7393
of the chariots
H7200
saw
H4428
that it was not the king
H3478
of Israel,
H7725
that they turned back
H310
from pursuing him.
34
H376
A certain man
H4900
drew
H7198
his bow
H8537
at random,
H5221
and struck
H4428
the king
H3478
of Israel
H1694
between the joints
H8302
of the armor.
H559
Therefore he said
H7395
to the driver of his chariot,
H2015
"Turn
H3027
your hand,
H3318
and carry me out
H4264
of the battle;
H2470
for I am severely wounded."
35
H4421
The battle
H5927
increased
H3117
that day.
H4428
The king
H5975
was propped up
H4818
in his chariot
H5227
facing
H758
the Syrians,
H4191
and died
H6153
at evening.
H1818
The blood
H3332
ran out
H4347
of the wound
H2436
into the bottom
H7393
of the chariot.
36
H7440
A cry
H5674
went
H4264
throughout the army
H935
about the going down
H8121
of the sun,
H559
saying,
H376
"Every man
H5892
to his city,
H376
and every man
H776
to his country!"
37
H4428
So the king
H4191
died,
H935
and was brought
H8111
to Samaria;
H6912
and they buried
H4428
the king
H8111
in Samaria.
38
H7857
They washed
H7393
the chariot
H1295
by the pool
H8111
of Samaria;
H3611
and the dogs
H3952
licked up
H1818
his blood
H7364
where the prostitutes washed
H2185
themselves;
H1697
according to the word
H3068
of Yahweh
H1696
which he spoke.
39
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H256
of Ahab,
H6213
and all that he did,
H8127
and the ivory
H1004
house
H1129
which he built,
H5892
and all the cities
H1129
that he built,
H3789
aren't they written
H5612
in the book
H1697
of the chronicles
H4428
of the kings
H3478
of Israel?
40
H256
So Ahab
H7901
slept
H1
with his fathers;
H274
and Ahaziah
H1121
his son
H4427
reigned in his place.
41
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H1121
the son
H609
of Asa
H4427
began to reign
H3063
over Judah
H702
in the fourth
H8141
year
H256
of Ahab
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel.
42
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H7970
was thirty -
H2568
five
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4427
when he began to reign;
H4427
and he reigned
H6242
twenty -
H2568
five
H8141
years
H3389
in Jerusalem.
H517
His mother's
H8034
name
H5806
was Azubah
H1323
the daughter
H7977
of Shilhi.
43
H3212
He walked
H1870
in all the way
H609
of Asa
H1
his father;
H5493
He didn't turn aside
H6213
from it, doing
H3477
that which was right
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of Yahweh:
H1116
however the high places
H5493
were not taken away;
H5971
the people
H2076
still sacrificed
H6999
and burnt incense
H1116
in the high places.
45
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H3092
of Jehoshaphat,
H1369
and his might
H6213
that he showed,
H3898
and how he warred,
H3789
aren't they written
H5612
in the book
H1697
of the chronicles
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah?
46
H3499
The remnant
H6945
of the sodomites,
H7604
that remained
H3117
in the days
H1
of his father
H609
Asa,
H1197
he put away
H776
out of the land.
48
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H6213
made
H591
ships
H8659
of Tarshish
H3212
to go
H211
to Ophir
H2091
for gold:
H1980
but they didn't go;
H591
for the ships
H7665
were broken
H6100
at Ezion Geber.
49
H274
Then Ahaziah
H1121
the son
H256
of Ahab
H559
said
H3092
to Jehoshaphat,
H5650
"Let my servants
H3212
go
H5650
with your servants
H591
in the ships."
H3092
But Jehoshaphat
H14
would not.
50
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H7901
slept
H1
with his fathers,
H6912
and was buried
H1
with his fathers
H5892
in the city
H1732
of David
H1
his father;
H3088
Jehoram
H1121
his son
H4427
reigned in his place.
51
H274
Ahaziah
H1121
the son
H256
of Ahab
H4427
began to reign
H3478
over Israel
H8111
in Samaria
H7651
in the seventeenth
H8141
year
H3092
of Jehoshaphat
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah,
H4427
and he reigned
H8141
two years
H3478
over Israel.
