And Ahab made a feast for him and the people who were with him, putting to death great numbers of sheep and oxen; and he got Jehoshaphat to go with him to Ramoth-gilead. <\/br><strong>3<\/strong> For Ahab, king of Israel, said to Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, Will you go with me to Ramoth-gilead? And he said, I am as you are, and my people as your people; we will be with you in the war. <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> Then Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Let us now get directions from the Lord. <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> So the king of Israel got together all the prophets, four hundred men, and said to them, Am I to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And they said, Go up: for God will give it into the hands of the king. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions? <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, but I have no love for him, because he has never been a prophet of good to me, but only of evil: he is Micaiah, the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> Then the king of Israel sent for one of his unsexed servants and said, Go quickly and come back with Micaiah, the son of Imla. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, were seated on their seats of authority, dressed in their robes, by the doorway into Samaria; and all the prophets were acting as prophets before them. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> And Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, made himself iron horns and said, The Lord says, Pushing back the Aramaeans with these, you will put an end to them completely. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> And all the prophets said the same thing, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and it will go well for you, for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> Now the servant who had gone to get Micaiah said to him, See now, all the prophets with one voice are saying good things to the king; so let your words be like theirs, and say good things. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> And Micaiah said, By the living Lord, whatever the Lord says to me I will say. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> When he came to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, are we to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And he said, Go up, and it will go well for you; and they will be given up into your hands. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> And the king said to him, Have I not, again and again, put you on your oath to say nothing to me but what is true in the name of the Lord? <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> Then he said, I saw all Israel wandering on the mountains like sheep without a keeper; and the Lord said, These have no master: let them go back, every man to his house in peace. <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not say that he would not be a prophet of good to me, but of evil? <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> Then he said, Give ear now to the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord seated on his seat of power, and all the army of heaven in their places, at his right hand and at his left. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> And the Lord said, How may Ahab, king of Israel, be tricked into going up to Ramoth-gilead to his death? And one said one thing and one another. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> Then a spirit came forward and took his place before the Lord and said, I will get him to do it by a trick. And the Lord said to him, How? <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> And he said, I will go out and be a spirit of deceit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said, Your trick will have its effect on him: go out and do so. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> And now, see, the Lord has put a spirit of deceit in the mouth of these prophets of yours; and the Lord has said evil against you. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of his face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you? <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> And Micaiah said, Truly, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to keep yourself safe. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah and send him back to Amon, the ruler of the town, and to Joash, the king&#8217;s son; <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> And say, By the king&#8217;s order this man is to be put in prison, and given prison food till I come back in peace. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> And Micaiah said, If you come back at all in peace, the Lord has not sent his word by me. <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up to Ramoth-gilead. <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will make a change in my clothing, so that I do not seem to be the king, and will go into the fight; but do you put on your robes. So the king of Israel made a change in his dress, and they went to the fight. <\/br><strong>30<\/strong> Now the king of Aram had given orders to the captains of his war-carriages, saying, Make no attack on small or great, but only on the king of Israel. <\/br><strong>31<\/strong> So when the captains of the war-carriages saw Jehoshaphat, they said, It is the king of Israel. And turning about, they came round him, but Jehoshaphat gave a cry, and the Lord came to his help, and God sent them away from him. <\/br><strong>32<\/strong> Now when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him. <\/br><strong>33<\/strong> And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded. <\/br><strong>34<\/strong> But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king of Israel was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans till the evening; and by sundown he was dead. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n    google_ad_slot = \"6844414800\";\n    google_ad_width = 320;\n    google_ad_height =
