[3]And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559[H8799] unto his servantsH5650, KnowH3045[H8804] ye that RamothH7433 in GileadH1568 is ours, and we be stillH2814[H8688], and takeH3947[H8800] it not out of the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758? |
[No book] |
[4]And he saidH559[H8799] unto JehoshaphatH3092, Wilt thou goH3212[H8799] with me to battleH4421 to RamothgileadH7433[H1568]? And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559[H8799] to the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, I am as thouH3644 art, my peopleH5971 as thy peopleH5971, my horsesH5483 as thy horsesH5483. |

[5]And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559[H8799] unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, EnquireH1875[H8798], I pray thee, at the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 to dayH3117. |
[No book] |
[6]Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 gatheredH6908 the prophetsH5030 togetherH6908[H8799], about fourH702 hundredH3967 menH376, and saidH559[H8799] unto them, Shall I goH3212[H8799] against RamothgileadH7433[H1568] to battleH4421, or shall I forbearH2308[H8799]? And they saidH559[H8799], Go upH5927[H8798]; for the LordH136 shall deliverH5414[H8799] it into the handH3027 of the kingH4428. |

[7]And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559[H8799], Is there not here a prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068 besidesH5750, that we might enquireH1875 of himH8799? |
[No book] |
[8]And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559[H8799] unto JehoshaphatH3092, There is yet oneH259 manH376, MicaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of ImlahH3229, by whom we may enquireH1875[H8800] of the LORDH3068: but I hateH8130[H8804] him; for he doth not prophesyH5012[H8691] goodH2896 concerning me, but evilH7451. And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559[H8799], Let not the kingH4428 sayH559 soH8799. |
[No book] |
[9]Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 calledH7121[H8799] anH259 officerH5631, and saidH559[H8799], HastenH4116[H8761] hither MicaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of ImlahH3229. |

[11]And ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of ChenaanahH3668 madeH6213[H8799] him hornsH7161 of ironH1270: and he saidH559[H8799], Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068, With these shalt thou pushH5055[H8762] the SyriansH758, until thou have consumedH3615 themH8763. |

[13]And the messengerH4397 that was goneH1980[H8804] to callH7121[H8800] MicaiahH4321 spakeH1696[H8765] unto him, sayingH559[H8800], Behold now, the wordsH1697 of the prophetsH5030 declare goodH2896 unto the kingH4428 with oneH259 mouthH6310: let thy wordH1697, I pray thee, be like the wordH1697 of oneH259 of them, and speakH1696[H8765] that which is goodH2896. |
[No book] |
[14]And MicaiahH4321 saidH559[H8799], As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, what the LORDH3068 saithH559[H8799] unto me, that will I speakH1696.[H8762] |

[15]So he cameH935[H8799] to the kingH4428. And the kingH4428 saidH559[H8799] unto him, MicaiahH4321, shall we goH3212[H8799] against RamothgileadH7433[H1568] to battleH4421, or shall we forbearH2308[H8799]? And he answeredH559[H8799] him, GoH5927[H8798], and prosperH6743[H8685]: for the LORDH3068 shall deliverH5414[H8804] it into the handH3027 of the kingH4428. |

[17]And he saidH559[H8799], I sawH7200[H8804] all IsraelH3478 scatteredH6327[H8737] upon the hillsH2022, as sheepH6629 that have not a shepherdH7462[H8802]: and the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799], These have no masterH113: let them returnH7725[H8799] every manH376 to his houseH1004 in peaceH7965. |
[No book] |
[18]And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559[H8799] unto JehoshaphatH3092, Did I not tellH559[H8804] thee that he would prophesyH5012[H8691] no goodH2896 concerning me, but evilH7451? |
[No book] |
[19]And he saidH559[H8799], HearH8085[H8798] thou therefore the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: I sawH7200[H8804] the LORDH3068 sittingH3427[H8802] on his throneH3678, and all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 standingH5975[H8802] by him on his right handH3225 and on his leftH8040. |

[20]And the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799], Who shall persuadeH6601[H8762] AhabH256, that he may go upH5927[H8799] and fallH5307[H8799] at RamothgileadH7433[H1568]? And one saidH559[H8799] on this mannerH3541, and another saidH559[H8802] on that mannerH3541. |
[No book] |
[21]And there came forthH3318[H8799] a spiritH7307, and stoodH5975[H8799] beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and saidH559[H8799], I will persuadeH6601 himH8762. |
[No book] |
[22]And the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto him, Wherewith? And he saidH559[H8799], I will go forthH3318[H8799], and I will be a lyingH8267 spiritH7307 in the mouthH6310 of all his prophetsH5030. And he saidH559[H8799], Thou shalt persuadeH6601[H8762] him, and prevailH3201[H8799] also: go forthH3318[H8798], and doH6213 soH8798. |
[No book] |
[23]Now therefore, behold, the LORDH3068 hath putH5414[H8804] a lyingH8267 spiritH7307 in the mouthH6310 of all these thy prophetsH5030, and the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696[H8765] evil concerning theeH7451. |
[No book] |
[24]But ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of ChenaanahH3668 went nearH5066[H8799], and smoteH5221[H8686] MicaiahH4321 on the cheekH3895, and saidH559[H8799], Which wayH335 wentH5674[H8804] the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 from me to speakH1696 unto theeH8763? |

[No book] |
[27]And sayH559[H8804], Thus saithH559[H8804] the kingH4428, PutH7760[H8798] this fellow in the prisonH1004[H3608], and feedH398[H8685] him with breadH3899 of afflictionH3906 and with waterH4325 of afflictionH3906, until I comeH935[H8800] in peaceH7965. |
[No book] |
[28]And MicaiahH4321 saidH559[H8799], If thou returnH7725[H8799] at allH7725[H8800] in peaceH7965, the LORDH3068 hath not spokenH1696[H8765] by me. And he saidH559[H8799], HearkenH8085[H8798], O people, every one of youH5971. |
[No book] |
[29]So the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JehoshaphatH3092 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 went upH5927[H8799] to RamothgileadH7433.[H1568] |
[No book] |
[30]And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559[H8799] unto JehoshaphatH3092, I will disguiseH2664[H8692] myself, and enterH935[H8800] into the battleH4421; but put thou onH3847[H8798] thy robesH899. And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 disguisedH2664[H8691] himself, and wentH935[H8799] into the battleH4421. |
[No book] |
[31]But the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 commandedH6680[H8765] his thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 captainsH8269 that had rule over his chariotsH7393, sayingH559[H8800], FightH3898[H8735] neither with smallH6996 nor greatH1419, save only with the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. |
[No book] |
[32]And it came to pass, when the captainsH8269 of the chariotsH7393 sawH7200[H8800] JehoshaphatH3092, that they saidH559[H8804], Surely it is the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478. And they turned asideH5493[H8799] to fightH3898[H8736] against him: and JehoshaphatH3092 cried outH2199.[H8799] |
[No book] |
[33]And it came to pass, when the captainsH8269 of the chariotsH7393 perceivedH7200[H8800] that it was not the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, that they turned backH7725[H8799] from pursuing himH310. |
[No book] |
[34]And a certain manH376 drewH4900[H8804] a bowH7198 at a ventureH8537, and smoteH5221[H8686] the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 between the jointsH1694 of the harnessH8302: wherefore he saidH559[H8799] unto the driver of his chariotH7395, TurnH2015[H8798] thine handH3027, and carry me outH3318[H8685] of the hostH4264; for I am woundedH2470.[H8717] |
[No book] |
[35]And the battleH4421 increasedH5927[H8799] that dayH3117: and the kingH4428 was stayed upH5975[H8716] in his chariotH4818 againstH5227 the SyriansH758, and diedH4191[H8799] at evenH6153: and the bloodH1818 ran outH3332[H8799] of the woundH4347 into the midstH2436 of the chariotH7393. |
[No book] |
[36]And there wentH5674[H8799] a proclamationH7440 throughout the hostH4264 about the going downH935[H8800] of the sunH8121, sayingH559[H8800], Every manH376 to his cityH5892, and every manH376 to his own countryH776. |
[No book] |
[37]So the kingH4428 diedH4191[H8799], and was broughtH935[H8799] to SamariaH8111; and they buriedH6912[H8799] the kingH4428 in SamariaH8111. |
[No book] |
[38]And one washedH7857[H8799] the chariotH7393 in the poolH1295 of SamariaH8111; and the dogsH3611 licked upH3952[H8799] his bloodH1818; and they washedH7364[H8804] his armourH2185; according unto the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 which he spakeH1696.[H8765] |
