1 Kings 22:13-28

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.
