1 Kings 22:6-28

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>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I saw
<07200> (8804)

all Israel
<03478>

scattered
<06327> (8737)

upon the hills
<02022>_,

as sheep
<06629>

that have not a shepherd
<07462> (8802)_:

and the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

These have no master
<0113>_:

let them return
<07725> (8799)

every man
<0376>

to his house
<01004>

in peace
<07965>_.

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

Did I not tell
<0559> (8804)

thee that he would prophesy
<05012> (8691)

no good
<02896>

concerning me, but evil
<07451>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hear
<08085> (8798)

thou therefore the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

I saw
<07200> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

sitting
<03427> (8802)

on his throne
<03678>_,

and all the host
<06635>

of heaven
<08064>

standing
<05975> (8802)

by him on his right hand
<03225>

and on his left
<08040>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who shall persuade
<06601> (8762)

Ahab
<0256>_,

that he may go up
<05927> (8799)

and fall
<05307> (8799)

at Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_?

And one said
<0559> (8799)

on this manner
<03541>_,

and another said
<0559> (8802)

on that manner
<03541>_.

{persuade: or, deceive}

And there came forth
<03318> (8799)

a spirit
<07307>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will persuade
<06601> (8762)

him.

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Wherewith? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will go forth
<03318> (8799)_,

and I will be a lying
<08267>

spirit
<07307>

in the mouth
<06310>

of all his prophets
<05030>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou shalt persuade
<06601> (8762)

[him], and prevail
<03201> (8799)

also: go forth
<03318> (8798)_,

and do
<06213> (8798)

so.

Now therefore, behold, the LORD
<03068>

hath put
<05414> (8804)

a lying
<08267>

spirit
<07307>

in the mouth
<06310>

of all these thy prophets
<05030>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

evil
<07451>

concerning thee.

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?

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}

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>_;

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>_.

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.
