8And the king of Israel said to Josaphat. There is one man left, by whom we may inquire of the Lord; Micheas, the son of Jemla: but I hate him, for he doth not prophecy good to me, but evil. And Josaphat said: Speak not so, O king.

Amos 5:10, John 17:14, John 3:19, John 3:21, John 7:7

9Then the king of Israel called an eunuch, and said to him: Make haste, and bring hither Micheas, the son of Jemla.

11And Sedecias, the son of Chanaana, made himself horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.

Zechariah 1:18, Zechariah 1:21, Zechariah 1:18, Zechariah 1:21, Deuteronomy 33:17

12And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, saying: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the king's hands.

2 Chronicles 35:22, 1 Kings 22:6, 1 Kings 22:15, 1 Kings 22:32, 1 Kings 22:36

13And the messenger that went to call Micheas, spoke to him, saying: Behold the words of the prophets with one mouth declare good things to the king: let thy word, therefore, be like to theirs, and speak that which is good.

Psalms 50:21, Micah 2:6, Micah 2:7, Amos 7:13, Amos 7:17

14But Micheas said to him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever the Lord shall say to me, that will I speak.

Numbers 24:13, Numbers 24:13, Numbers 22:18, Numbers 22:18, Galatians 1:10

1 Kings 22:8, 1 Kings 22:8, Proverbs 29:1, Luke 11:45, Proverbs 27:22

19And he added and said: Hear thou, therefore, the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left:

Job 2:1, Job 2:1, Job 1:6, Job 1:6, Daniel 7:9

20And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab, king of Israel, that he may go up, and fall at Ramoth Galaad? And one spoke words of this manner, and another otherwise.

Ezekiel 14:9, Ezekiel 14:9, Job 12:16, Job 12:16, Jeremiah 4:10

21And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means?

Job 1:6, Job 1:7, Job 2:1, 1 Kings 22:23, Job 1:6

22And he said: I will go forth, and be a lying spirit, in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive him, and shalt prevail: go forth, and do so.

Judges 9:23, Judges 9:23, 1 Samuel 16:14, 1 Samuel 19:9, 1 Samuel 16:14

23Now, therefore, behold the Lord hath given a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets that are here, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.

Ezekiel 14:9, Ezekiel 14:9, Matthew 24:24, Matthew 24:25, Matthew 24:24

24And Sedecias, the son of Chanaana, came, and struck Micheas on the cheek, and said: Hath then the spirit of the Lord left me, and spoken to thee?

25And Micheas said: Thou shalt see in the day when thou shalt go into a chamber within a chamber to hide thyself.

1 Kings 20:30, 1 Kings 20:30, 2 Peter 2:1, Revelation 19:20, 2 Peter 2:1

26And the king of Israel said: Take Micheas and let him abide with Amon, the governor of the city, and with Joas, the son of Amalech;

27And tell them: Thus saith the king: Put this man in prison, and feed him with bread of affliction, and water of distress till I return in peace.

28And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.

Numbers 16:29, Micah 1:2, Numbers 16:29, Micah 1:2, Acts 13:10

29So the king of Israel, and Josaphat, king of Juda, went up to Ramoth-Galaad.

1 Kings 22:2, 1 Kings 22:9, 2 Chronicles 18:28, 1 Kings 22:2, 1 Kings 22:9

30And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Take thy armour, and go into the battle, and put on thy own garments. But the king of Israel changed his dress, and went into the battle.

2 Chronicles 35:22, 2 Chronicles 35:22, Jeremiah 23:24, 1 Samuel 28:8, Jeremiah 23:24

31And the king of Syria had commanded the two and thirty captains of the chariots, saying: You shall not fight against any, small or great, but against the king of Israel only.

1 Kings 20:24, 1 Kings 20:24, 2 Chronicles 18:30, 2 Chronicles 18:30, Jeremiah 16:6

32So when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, they suspected that he was the king of Israel, and making a violent assault, they fought against him: and Josaphat cried out.

Proverbs 13:20, Jonah 2:1, Jonah 2:2, Proverbs 13:20, Jonah 2:1

33And the captains of the chariots perceived that he was not the king of Israel, and they turned away from him.

Psalms 76:10, Psalms 76:10, 1 Kings 22:31, 1 Kings 22:31

34And a certain man bent his bow, shooting at a venture, and chanced to strike the king of Israel, between the lungs and the stomach. But he said to the driver of his chariot: Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the army, for I am grievously wounded.

2 Chronicles 35:23, 2 Chronicles 35:23, Micah 6:13, Micah 6:13, 1 Samuel 17:49

35And the battle was fought that day, and the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians, and he died in the evening: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot.

1 Kings 22:28, 1 Kings 22:28, 1 Kings 20:42, 1 Kings 20:42

36And the herald proclaimed through all the army, before the sun set, saying: Let every man return to his own city, and to his own country.

2 Kings 14:12, 2 Kings 14:12, Judges 21:24, 1 Kings 12:16, 1 Samuel 4:10

37And the king died, and was carried into Samaria: and they buried the king in Samaria.

38And they washed his chariot in the pool of Samaria and the dogs licked up his blood, and they washed the reins according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.

1 Kings 21:19, 1 Kings 21:19, Matthew 24:35, Matthew 24:35, Isaiah 44:25

39But the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he made, and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?

Amos 3:15, Amos 3:15, 1 Kings 10:18, 1 Kings 15:31, 1 Kings 16:5

40So Achab slept with his fathers; and Ochozias, his son, reigned in his stead.

2 Kings 1:17, 2 Kings 1:2, Deuteronomy 31:16, 1 Kings 22:51, 2 Samuel 7:12

41But Josaphat, the son of Asa, began to reign over Juda, in the fourth year of Acbab, king of Israel.

2 Chronicles 20:31, 2 Chronicles 20:31, 2 Chronicles 17:1, 1 Chronicles 3:10, 1 Kings 22:2

42He was five and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Azuba, the daughter of Salai.

2 Kings 1:17, 2 Kings 8:16, 1 Kings 14:21, 1 Kings 15:10, 1 Kings 15:2

43And he walked in all the way of Asa, his father, and he declined not from it: and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord.

1 Kings 15:14, 1 Kings 15:14, 2 Kings 12:3, 2 Kings 12:3, Proverbs 4:27

44Nevertheless, he took not away the high places for as yet the people offered sacrifice, and burnt incense in the high places.

2 Kings 8:18, 2 Chronicles 19:2, 1 Kings 22:2, 2 Kings 8:18, 2 Chronicles 19:2

45And Josaphat had peace with the king of Israel.

1 Kings 14:29, 1 Kings 11:41, 2 Chronicles 20:34, 1 Kings 14:29, 1 Kings 11:41

46But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, and his works which he did, and his battles, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

1 Kings 15:12, 1 Kings 14:24, 1 Kings 15:12, 1 Kings 14:24, Deuteronomy 23:17

47And the remnant also of the effeminate, who remained in the days of Asa, his father, he took out of the land.

2 Samuel 8:14, 2 Kings 3:9, 2 Samuel 8:14, 2 Kings 3:9, 2 Kings 8:20

48And there was then no king appointed in Edom.

1 Kings 9:26, 1 Kings 10:22, 1 Kings 9:26, 1 Kings 10:22, 1 Kings 9:28

49But king Josaphat made navies on the sea, to sail into Ophir for gold: but they could not go, for the ships were broken in Asiongaber.

50Then Ochozias, the son of Achab, said to Josaphat: Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. And Josaphat would not.

2 Chronicles 21:1, 2 Chronicles 21:1, 1 Kings 14:31, 1 Kings 2:10, 2 Kings 8:16

51And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David, his father: and Joram, his son, reigned in his stead.

1 Kings 22:40, 2 Kings 1:17, 1 Kings 15:25, 1 Kings 22:40, 2 Kings 1:17

52And Ochozias, the son of Achab, began to reign over Israel, in Samaria, in the seventeenth year of Josaphat, king of Juda, and he reigned over Israel two years.

1 Kings 15:26, 1 Kings 15:26, 1 Kings 21:25, 1 Kings 21:25, 1 Kings 16:30

53And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father and his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin.

1 Kings 16:30, 1 Kings 16:32, 1 Kings 16:30, 1 Kings 16:32, Ezekiel 8:3

54He served also Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the Lord, the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
