2 Chronicles 18:18 (WEB) World English Bible

1 Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance; and he joined affinity with Ahab.
2 After certain years he went down to Ahab to Samaria. Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people who were with him, and moved him to go up with him to Ramoth-gilead.
3 Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Will you go with me to Ramoth-gilead? He answered him, I am as you are, and my people as your people; and we will be with you in the war.
4 Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Please inquire first for the word of Yahweh.
5 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, Shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? They said, Go up; for God will deliver it into the hand of the king.
6 But Jehoshaphat said, Isn't there here a prophet of Yahweh besides, that we may inquire of him?
7 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Yahweh: but I hate him; for he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil: the same is Micaiah the son of Imla. Jehoshaphat said, Don't let the king say so.
8 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, Get quickly Micaiah the son of Imla.
9 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah sat each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, and they were sitting in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
10 Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron, and said, Thus says Yahweh, With these shall you push the Syrians, until they be consumed.
11 All the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper; for Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king.
12 The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth: let your word therefore, Please be like one of theirs, and speak you good.
13 Micaiah said, As Yahweh lives, what my God says, that will I speak.
14 When he was come to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? He said, Go up, and prosper; and they shall be delivered into your hand.
15 The king said to him, How many times shall I adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?
16 He said, I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and Yahweh said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.
17 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Didn't I tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?
18 Micaiah said, Therefore hear you the word of Yahweh: I saw Yahweh sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.
19 Yahweh said, Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead? One spoke saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner.
20 There came forth a spirit, and stood before Yahweh, and said, I will entice him. Yahweh said to him, 'How?'
21 He said, 'I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' He said, 'You shall entice him, and shall prevail also: go forth, and do so.'
22 Now therefore, behold, Yahweh has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets; and Yahweh has spoken evil concerning you.
23 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of Yahweh from me to speak to you?
24 Micaiah said, Behold, you shall see on that day, when you shall go into an inner chamber to hide yourself.
25 The king of Israel said, Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;
26 and say, Thus says the king, Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace.
27 Micaiah said, If you return at all in peace, Yahweh has not spoken by me. He said, Hear, you peoples, all of you.
28 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
29 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but put you on your robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went into the battle.
30 Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king of Israel.
31 It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they turned about to fight against him: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and Yahweh helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.
32 It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
33 A certain man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of the chariot, Turn your hand, and carry me out of the host; for I am sore wounded.
34 The battle increased that day: however the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the even; and about the time of the going down of the sun he died.
1 Now Jehoshaphat H3092 had H1961 riches H6239 and honor H3519 in abundance, H7230 and joined affinity H2859 with Ahab. H256
2 And after H7093 certain years H8141 he went down H3381 to H413 Ahab H256 to Samaria. H8111 And Ahab H256 killed H2076 sheep H6629 and oxen H1241 for him in abundance, H7230 and for the people H5971 that H834 he had with H5973 him , and persuaded H5496 him to go up H5927 with him to H413 Ramoth- H7433 gilead.
3 And Ahab H256 king H4428 of Israel H3478 said H559 unto H413 Jehoshaphat H3092 king H4428 of Judah, H3063 Wilt thou go H1980 with H5973 me to Ramoth- H7433 gilead? And he answered H559 him, I H3644 am as thou H3644 art , and my people H5971 as thy people; H5971 and we will be with H5973 thee in the war. H4421
4 And Jehoshaphat H3092 said H559 unto H413 the king H4428 of Israel, H3478 Inquire, H1875 I pray thee, H4994 at H853 the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 today. H3117
5 Therefore the king H4428 of Israel H3478 gathered together H6908 H853 of prophets H5030 four H702 hundred H3967 men, H376 and said H559 unto H413 them , Shall we go H1980 to H413 Ramoth- H7433 gilead to battle, H4421 or H518 shall I forbear H2308 ? And they said, H559 Go up; H5927 for God H430 will deliver H5414 it into the king's H4428 hand. H3027
6 But Jehoshaphat H3092 said, H559 Is there not H369 here H6311 a prophet H5030 of the LORD H3068 besides, H5750 that we might inquire H1875 of him H4480 H854 ?
7 And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 said H559 unto H413 Jehoshaphat, H3092 There is yet H5750 one H259 man, H376 by whom H4480 H854 we may inquire H1875 of H853 the LORD: H3068 but I H589 hate H8130 him; for H3588 he never H369 prophesied H5012 good H2896 unto H5921 me, but H3588 always H3605 H3117 evil: H7451 the same H1931 is Micaiah H4321 the son H1121 of Imla. H3229 And Jehoshaphat H3092 said, H559 Let not H408 the king H4428 say H559 so. H3651
8 And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 called H7121 for H413 one H259 of his officers, H5631 and said, H559 Fetch quickly H4116 Micaiah H4319 the son H1121 of Imla. H3229
9 And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 and Jehoshaphat H3092 king H4428 of Judah H3063 sat H3427 either H376 of them on H5921 his throne, H3678 clothed H3847 in their robes, H899 and they sat H3427 in a void place H1637 at the entering in H6607 of the gate H8179 of Samaria; H8111 and all H3605 the prophets H5030 prophesied H5012 before H6440 them.
10 And Zedekiah H6667 the son H1121 of Chenaanah H3668 had made H6213 him horns H7161 of iron, H1270 and said, H559 Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD, H3068 With these H428 thou shalt push H5055 H853 Syria H758 until H5704 they be consumed. H3615
11 And all H3605 the prophets H5030 prophesied H5012 so, H3651 saying, H559 Go up H5927 to Ramoth- H7433 gilead , and prosper: H6743 for the LORD H3068 shall deliver H5414 it into the hand H3027 of the king. H4428
12 And the messenger H4397 that H834 went H1980 to call H7121 Micaiah H4321 spoke H1696 to H413 him, saying, H559 Behold, H2009 the words H1697 of the prophets H5030 declare good H2896 to H413 the king H4428 with one H259 assent; H6310 let thy word H1697 therefore , I pray thee, H4994 be H1961 like one H259 of H4480 theirs , and speak H1696 thou good. H2896
13 And Micaiah H4321 said, H559 As the LORD H3068 liveth, H2416 even H3588 H853 what H834 my God H430 saith, H559 that will I speak. H1696
14 And when he was come H935 to H413 the king, H4428 the king H4428 said H559 unto H413 him, Micaiah, H4318 shall we go H1980 to H413 Ramoth- H7433 gilead to battle, H4421 or H518 shall I forbear H2308 ? And he said, H559 Go ye up, H5927 and prosper, H6743 and they shall be delivered H5414 into your hand. H3027
15 And the king H4428 said H559 to H413 him , How many H5704 H4100 times H6471 shall I H589 adjure H7650 thee that H834 thou say H1696 nothing H3808 but H7535 the truth H571 to H413 me in the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 ?
16 Then he said, H559 I did see H7200 H853 all H3605 Israel H3478 scattered H6327 upon H5921 the mountains, H2022 as sheep H6629 that H834 have no H369 shepherd: H7462 and the LORD H3068 said, H559 These H428 have no H3808 master; H113 let them return H7725 therefore every man H376 to his house H1004 in peace. H7965
17 And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 said H559 to H413 Jehoshaphat, H3092 Did I not H3808 tell H559 H413 thee that he would not H3808 prophesy H5012 good H2896 unto H5921 me, but H3588 H518 evil H7451 ?
18 Again he said, H559 Therefore H3651 hear H8085 the word H1697 of the LORD; H3068 I saw H7200 H853 the LORD H3068 sitting H3427 upon H5921 his throne, H3678 and all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064 standing H5975 on H5921 his right hand H3225 and on his left. H8040
19 And the LORD H3068 said, H559 Who H4310 shall entice H6601 H853 Ahab H256 king H4428 of Israel, H3478 that he may go up H5927 and fall H5307 at Ramoth- H7433 gilead? And one H2088 spoke H559 saying H559 after this manner, H3602 and another H2088 saying H559 after that manner. H3602
20 Then there came out H3318 a spirit, H7307 and stood H5975 before H6440 the LORD, H3068 and said, H559 I H589 will entice H6601 him . And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 him, Wherewith H4100 ?
21 And he said, H559 I will go out, H3318 and be H1961 a lying H8267 spirit H7307 in the mouth H6310 of all H3605 his prophets. H5030 And the LORD said, H559 Thou shalt entice H6601 him , and thou shalt also H1571 prevail: H3201 go out, H3318 and do H6213 even so. H3651
22 Now H6258 therefore, behold, H2009 the LORD H3068 hath put H5414 a lying H8267 spirit H7307 in the mouth H6310 of these H428 thy prophets, H5030 and the LORD H3068 hath spoken H1696 evil H7451 against H5921 thee.
23 Then Zedekiah H6667 the son H1121 of Chenaanah H3668 came near, H5066 and smote H5221 H853 Micaiah H4321 upon H5921 the cheek, H3895 and said, H559 Which H335 H2088 way H1870 went H5674 the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 from H4480 H854 me to speak H1696 unto H854 thee?
24 And Micaiah H4321 said, H559 Behold, H2009 thou shalt see H7200 on that H1931 day H3117 when H834 thou shalt go H935 into an inner chamber H2315 H2315 to hide thyself. H2244
25 Then the king H4428 of Israel H3478 said, H559 Take H3947 ye H853 Micaiah, H4321 and carry him back H7725 to H413 Amon H526 the governor H8269 of the city, H5892 and to H413 Joash H3101 the king's H4428 son; H1121
26 And say, H559 Thus H3541 saith H559 the king, H4428 Put H7760 this H2088 fellow in the prison H1004 H3608 , and feed H398 him with bread H3899 of affliction H3906 and with water H4325 of affliction, H3906 until H5704 I return H7725 in peace. H7965
27 And Micaiah H4321 said, H559 If H518 thou certainly return H7725 H7725 in peace, H7965 then hath not H3808 the LORD H3068 spoken H1696 by me . And he said, H559 Hearken, H8085 all H3605 ye people. H5971
28 So the king H4428 of Israel H3478 and Jehoshaphat H3092 the king H4428 of Judah H3063 went up H5927 to H413 Ramoth- H7433 gilead.
29 And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 said H559 unto H413 Jehoshaphat, H3092 I will disguise myself, H2664 and will go H935 to the battle; H4421 but put thou on H859 H3847 thy robes. H899 So the king H4428 of Israel H3478 disguised himself; H2664 and they went H935 to the battle. H4421
30 Now the king H4428 of Syria H758 had commanded H6680 H853 the captains H8269 of the chariots H7393 that H834 were with him, saying, H559 Fight H3898 ye not H3808 with H854 small H6996 or H854 great, H1419 save H3588 H518 only H905 with H854 the king H4428 of Israel. H3478
31 And it came to pass, H1961 when the captains H8269 of the chariots H7393 saw H7200 H853 Jehoshaphat, H3092 that they H1992 said, H559 It H1931 is the king H4428 of Israel. H3478 Therefore they compassed H5437 about H5921 him to fight: H3898 but Jehoshaphat H3092 cried out, H2199 and the LORD H3068 helped H5826 him ; and God H430 moved H5496 them to depart from H4480 him.
32 For it came to pass, H1961 that , when the captains H8269 of the chariots H7393 perceived H7200 that H3588 it was H1961 not H3808 the king H4428 of Israel, H3478 they turned back again H7725 from pursuing H4480 H310 him.
33 And a certain man H376 drew H4900 a bow H7198 at a venture, H8537 and smote H5221 H853 the king H4428 of Israel H3478 between H996 the joints H1694 of the harness: H8302 therefore he said H559 to his chariot man, H7395 Turn H2015 thine hand, H3027 that thou mayest carry me out H3318 of H4480 the host; H4264 for H3588 I am wounded. H2470
34 And the battle H4421 increased H5927 that H1931 day: H3117 howbeit the king H4428 of Israel H3478 stayed himself up H1961 H5975 in his chariot H4818 against H5227 the Syrians H758 until H5704 the even: H6153 and about the time H6256 of the sun H8121 going down H935 he died. H4191
