2 Chronicles 18:1--19:3

Now Jehoshaphat
<03092>

had riches
<06239>

and honour
<03519>

in abundance
<07230>_,

and joined affinity
<02859> (8691)

with Ahab
<0256>_.

And after
<07093>

[certain] years
<08141>

he went down
<03381> (8799)

to Ahab
<0256>

to Samaria
<08111>_.

And Ahab
<0256>

killed
<02076> (8799)

sheep
<06629>

and oxen
<01241>

for him in abundance
<07230>_,

and for the people
<05971>

that [he had] with him, and persuaded
<05496> (8686)

him to go up
<05927> (8800)

[with him] to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_.

{after...: Heb. at the end of years}

And Ahab
<0256>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

Wilt thou go
<03212> (8799)

with me to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_?

And he answered
<0559> (8799)

him, I [am] as thou [art], and my people
<05971>

as thy people
<05971>_;

and [we will be] with thee in the war
<04421>_.

And Jehoshaphat
<03092>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Enquire
<01875> (8798)_,

I pray thee, at the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

to day
<03117>_.

Therefore the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

gathered together
<06908> (8799)

of prophets
<05030>

four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

men
<0376>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Shall we go
<03212> (8799)

to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>

to battle
<04421>_,

or shall I forbear
<02308> (8799)_?

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go up
<05927> (8798)_;

for God
<0430>

will deliver
<05414> (8799)

[it] into the king's
<04428>

hand
<03027>_.

But Jehoshaphat
<03092>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

[Is there] not here a prophet
<05030>

of the LORD
<03068>

besides, that we might enquire
<01875> (8799)

of him? {besides: Heb. yet, or, more}

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

[There is] yet one
<0259>

man
<0376>_,

by whom we may enquire
<01875> (8800)

of the LORD
<03068>_:

but I hate
<08130> (8804)

him; for he never prophesied
<05012> (8693)

good
<02896>

unto me, but always
<03117>

evil
<07451>_:

the same [is] Micaiah
<04321>

the son
<01121>

of Imla
<03229>_.

And Jehoshaphat
<03092>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let not the king
<04428>

say
<0559> (8799)

so.

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

called
<07121> (8799)

for one
<0259>

[of his] officers
<05631>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Fetch quickly
<04116> (8761)

Micaiah
<04319>

the son
<01121>

of Imla
<03229>_.

{officers: or, eunuchs} {Fetch...: Heb. Hasten}

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

and Jehoshaphat
<03092>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

sat
<03427> (8802)

either
<0376>

of them on his throne
<03678>_,

clothed
<03847> (8794)

in [their] robes
<0899>_,

and they sat
<03427> (8802)

in a void place
<01637>

at the entering in
<06607>

of the gate
<08179>

of Samaria
<08111>_;

and all the prophets
<05030>

prophesied
<05012> (8693)

before
<06440>

them. {void...: or, floor}

And Zedekiah
<06667>

the son
<01121>

of Chenaanah
<03668>

had made
<06213> (8799)

him horns
<07161>

of iron
<01270>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

With these thou shalt push
<05055> (8762)

Syria
<0758>

until they be consumed
<03615> (8763)_.

{they...: Heb. thou consume 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 hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>_.

And the messenger
<04397>

that went
<01980> (8804)

to call
<07121> (8800)

Micaiah
<04321>

spake
<01696> (8765)

to him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Behold, the words
<01697>

of the prophets
<05030>

[declare] good
<02896>

to the king
<04428>

with one
<0259>

assent
<06310>_;

let thy word
<01697>

therefore, I pray thee, be like one
<0259>

of theirs, and speak
<01696> (8765)

thou good
<02896>_.

{with...: Heb. with one mouth}

And Micaiah
<04321>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

[As] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

even what my God
<0430>

saith
<0559> (8799)_,

that will I speak
<01696> (8762)_.

And when he was come
<0935> (8799)

to the king
<04428>_,

the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Micaiah
<04318>_,

shall we go
<03212> (8799)

to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>

to battle
<04421>_,

or shall I forbear
<02308> (8799)_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go ye up
<05927> (8798)_,

and prosper
<06743> (8685)_,

and they shall be delivered
<05414> (8735)

into your hand
<03027>_.

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

to him, How many times
<06471>

shall I adjure
<07650> (8688)

thee that thou say
<01696> (8762)

nothing but the truth
<0571>

to me in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_?

Then he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I did see
<07200> (8804)

all Israel
<03478>

scattered
<06327> (8737)

upon the mountains
<02022>_,

as sheep
<06629>

that have no shepherd
<07462> (8802)_:

and the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

These have no master
<0113>_;

let them return
<07725> (8799)

[therefore] every man
<0376>

to his house
<01004>

in peace
<07965>_.

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

Did I not tell
<0559> (8804)

thee [that] he would not prophesy
<05012> (8691)

good
<02896>

unto me, but evil
<07451>_?

{but evil: or, but for evil}

Again he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

I saw
<07200> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

sitting
<03427> (8802)

upon his throne
<03678>_,

and all the host
<06635>

of heaven
<08064>

standing
<05975> (8802)

on his right hand
<03225>

and [on] his left
<08040>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who shall entice
<06601> (8762)

Ahab
<0256>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

that he may go up
<05927> (8799)

and fall
<05307> (8799)

at Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_?

And one spake
<0559> (8799)

saying
<0559> (8802)

after this manner
<03602>_,

and another saying
<0559> (8802)

after that manner
<03602>_.

Then there came out
<03318> (8799)

a spirit
<07307>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will entice
<06601> (8762)

him. And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Wherewith?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

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

and be a lying
<08267>

spirit
<07307>

in the mouth
<06310>

of all his prophets
<05030>_.

And [the LORD] said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou shalt entice
<06601> (8762)

[him], and thou shalt also prevail
<03201> (8799)_:

go out
<03318> (8798)_,

and do
<06213> (8798)

[even] so.

Now therefore, behold, the LORD
<03068>

hath put
<05414> (8804)

a lying
<08267>

spirit
<07307>

in the mouth
<06310>

of these thy prophets
<05030>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

evil
<07451>

against thee.

Then Zedekiah
<06667>

the son
<01121>

of Chenaanah
<03668>

came near
<05066> (8799)_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

Micaiah
<04321>

upon the cheek
<03895>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Which
<0335>

way
<01870>

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)

on that day
<03117>

when thou shalt go
<0935> (8799)

into an inner
<02315>

chamber
<02315>

to hide
<02244> (8736)

thyself. {into...: or, from chamber to chamber: Heb. a chamber in a chamber}

Then the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

ye Micaiah
<04321>_,

and carry him back
<07725> (8685)

to 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 return
<07725> (8800)

in peace
<07965>_.

And Micaiah
<04321>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

If thou certainly
<07725> (8800)

return
<07725> (8799)

in peace
<07965>_,

[then] hath not the LORD
<03068>

spoken
<01696> (8765)

by me. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hearken
<08085> (8798)_,

all ye people
<05971>_.

So the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

and Jehoshaphat
<03092>

the king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

went up
<05927> (8799)

to Ramothgilead
<07433> <01568>_.

And the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

I will disguise
<02664> (8692)

myself, and will go
<0935> (8800)

to the battle
<04421>_;

but put
<03847> (8798)

thou on thy robes
<0899>_.

So the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

disguised
<02664> (8691)

himself; and they went
<0935> (8799)

to the battle
<04421>_.

Now the king
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>

had commanded
<06680> (8765)

the captains
<08269>

of the chariots
<07393>

that [were] with him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Fight
<03898> (8735)

ye not with small
<06996>

or great
<01419>_,

save only with the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

And it came to pass, when the captains
<08269>

of the chariots
<07393>

saw
<07200> (8800)

Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

that they said
<0559> (8804)_,

It [is] the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

Therefore they compassed about
<05437> (8799)

him to fight
<03898> (8736)_:

but Jehoshaphat
<03092>

cried out
<02199> (8799)_,

and the LORD
<03068>

helped
<05826> (8804)

him; and God
<0430>

moved
<05496> (8686)

them [to depart] from him.

For it came to pass, that, when the captains
<08269>

of the chariots
<07393>

perceived
<07200> (8800)

that it was not the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

they turned back again
<07725> (8799)

from pursuing
<0310>

him. {from...: Heb. from after him}

And a [certain] man 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>_:

therefore he said
<0559> (8799)

to his chariot
<07395>

man
<0376>_,

Turn
<02015> (8798)

thine hand
<03027>_,

that thou mayest carry me out
<03318> (8689)

of the host
<04264>_;

for I am wounded
<02470> (8717)_.

{at a venture: Heb. in his simplicity} {between...: Heb. between the joints and between the breastplate} {wounded: Heb. made sick}

And the battle
<04421>

increased
<05927> (8799)

that day
<03117>_:

howbeit the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

stayed [himself] up
<05975> (8689)

in [his] chariot
<04818>

against
<05227>

the Syrians
<0758>

until the even
<06153>_:

and about the time
<06256>

of the sun
<08121>

going down
<0935> (8800)

he died
<04191> (8799)_.

And Jehoshaphat
<03092>

the king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

returned
<07725> (8799)

to his house
<01004>

in peace
<07965>

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And Jehu
<03058>

the son
<01121>

of Hanani
<02607>

the seer
<02374>

went out
<03318> (8799)

to meet
<06440>

him, and said
<0559> (8799)

to king
<04428>

Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,

Shouldest thou help
<05826> (8800)

the ungodly
<07563>_,

and love
<0157> (8799)

them that hate
<08130> (8802)

the LORD
<03068>_?

therefore
<02063>

[is] wrath
<07110>

upon thee from before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_.

Nevertheless
<061>

there are good
<02896>

things
<01697>

found
<04672> (8738)

in thee, in that thou hast taken away
<01197> (8765)

the groves
<0842>

out of the land
<0776>_,

and hast prepared
<03559> (8689)

thine heart
<03824>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

God
<0430>_.
