II Chronicles 18

1And it came to pass, when Jehoshaphat had riches and honour, in abundance, that he contracted, by marriage, affinity with Ahab.

2 Chronicles 17:5, 2 Chronicles 17:5, 2 Chronicles 21:6, 2 Chronicles 21:6, 2 Kings 8:18

2So he went down, at the end of some years, unto Ahab, to Samaria, Ahab therefore sacrificed for him, sheep and oxen, in abundance, also for the people whom he had with him,-and then persuaded him to go up against Ramoth-gilead.

2 Kings 9:1, 1 Kings 1:9, 2 Chronicles 19:2, 2 Kings 9:1, 1 Kings 1:9

3For Ahab king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go up with me to Ramoth-gilead? And he said unto him—So am I, even as thou, and, like thy people, are my people, and, with thee, in the war.

2 Kings 3:7, 1 Kings 22:4, 2 Kings 3:7, 1 Kings 22:4, Ephesians 5:11

4Then said Jehoshaphat, unto the king of Israel,—Seek, I pray thee, some time to-day, the word of Yahweh.

Jeremiah 21:2, Jeremiah 21:2, 1 Samuel 23:4, 2 Samuel 5:19, 1 Samuel 23:2

5So the king of Israel gathered together the prophets, four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go up against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said—Go up, and may God deliver it into the hand of the king!

2 Chronicles 18:20, 2 Chronicles 18:21, Jeremiah 28:1, Jeremiah 28:17, 2 Kings 3:13

6Then said Jehoshaphat, Is there not here a prophet of Yahweh, besides,—that we may seek, from him?

2 Kings 3:11, 2 Kings 3:13, 1 Kings 22:7, 1 Kings 22:9, 2 Kings 3:11

7Then said the king of Israel unto Jehoshaphat—There is yet one man, by whom to seek Yahweh, but, I, hate him, for he is never prophesying, concerning me, anything good—but—all his days—evil, the same, is Micaiah, son of Imla. Then said Jehoshaphat, Let not the king say, so!

Micah 2:7, Amos 5:10, Micah 2:7, Amos 5:10, 1 Kings 21:20

8And the king of Israel called for a certain officer,—and said, Haste, Micaiah son of Imla!

1 Samuel 8:15, 2 Chronicles 18:25, 2 Chronicles 18:26, 1 Kings 22:9, Isaiah 39:7

9Now, the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, were sitting, each upon his throne, clothed in robes, and they were sitting in an open space, at the entrance of the gate of Samaria,—and, all the prophets, were prophesying before them.

Daniel 7:9, 2 Chronicles 18:29, 1 Kings 22:10, 1 Kings 22:12, Matthew 6:29

10Then did Zedekiah son of Chenaanah make him horns of iron,—and said—Thus, saith Yahweh, With these, shalt thou push Syria, until they are consumed.

2 Timothy 3:8, Jeremiah 29:21, Jeremiah 23:25, Ezekiel 22:28, Ezekiel 13:7

11And, all the prophets, were prophesying, so, saying,-Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper, and Yahweh will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.

Proverbs 24:24, Proverbs 24:25, 2 Peter 2:1, 2 Peter 2:3, Revelation 19:20

12And, the messenger who went to call Micaiah, spake unto him, saying, Lo! the words of the prophets, with one mouth, are good for the king,—be thy word then, I pray thee, like one of theirs, so wilt thou speak good.

Joshua 9:2, Amos 7:13, Micah 2:11, 1 Corinthians 2:14, 1 Corinthians 2:16

13Then said Micaiah,—By the life of Yahweh, whatsoever my God shall say, that, must I speak.

Numbers 22:35, Numbers 22:35, Numbers 22:18, Numbers 22:20, Numbers 24:13

14Now, when he came unto the king, the king said unto him, Micah, shall we go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up and prosper, and may they be delivered into your hand.

1 Kings 22:15, 1 Kings 18:27, Matthew 26:45, Lamentations 4:21, Ecclesiastes 11:1

15Then the king said unto him, How many times, must, I, be putting thee on oath,—that thou speak unto me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?

Acts 19:13, Matthew 26:63, Mark 5:7, 1 Kings 22:16, 1 Samuel 14:24

16So he said, I saw all Israel, scattered upon the mountains, like sheep that have no shepherd,-and Yahweh said, No masters, have these! let them return every man unto his own house, in peace.

Matthew 9:36, Matthew 9:36, Mark 6:34, Ezekiel 34:8, 1 Kings 22:17

17Then said the king of Israel, unto Jehoshaphat,—Said I not unto thee, He wilt not prophesy concerning me anything good, but evil?

1 Kings 22:18, Jeremiah 43:2, Jeremiah 43:3, 2 Chronicles 18:7, Proverbs 29:1

18Then said he, Therefore, hear ye the word of Yahweh,—I saw Yahweh, sitting upon his throne, and, all the host of the heavens, standing, on his right hand and his left.

Daniel 7:9, Daniel 7:9, Isaiah 6:1, Isaiah 6:5, Isaiah 6:1

19Then said Yahweh, Who will persuade Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall in Ramoth-gilead? And one spake, saying after this manner, and another, saying after that manner.

2 Thessalonians 2:11, 2 Thessalonians 2:12, Isaiah 54:16, 2 Chronicles 25:8, Ezekiel 14:9

20Then came there forth a spirit and stood before Yahweh, and said, I, will persuade him. And Yahweh said unto him, Wherewith?

Job 1:6, Job 1:6, Job 2:1, 2 Corinthians 11:13, 2 Corinthians 11:15

21And he said, I will go forth and become a spirit of falsehood, in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said—Thou mayest persuade, moreover also, thou shalt prevail, go forth, and do, so.

John 8:44, John 8:44, Genesis 3:4, Genesis 3:5, 1 John 4:6

22Now, therefore, lo! Yahweh hath suffered a spirit of falsehood to be put into the mouth of these thy prophets,—but, Yahweh, hath spoken concerning thee—evil.

Ezekiel 14:9, Isaiah 19:14, Ezekiel 14:9, Isaiah 19:14, Job 12:16

23Then drew near Zedekiah son of Chenaanah, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek,—and said, Which then is the way the spirit of Yahweh passed from me, to speak with thee?

Mark 14:65, Jeremiah 20:2, Mark 14:65, Jeremiah 20:2, Matthew 26:67

24Then said Micaiah, Lo! thou shalt see, on that day when thou shalt enter into a chamber within a chamber, to hide thyself.

Jeremiah 29:21, Jeremiah 29:22, Jeremiah 29:32, Isaiah 26:20, 1 Kings 20:30

25Then said the king of Israel, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him back unto Amon ruler of the city, and unto Joash son of the king;

2 Chronicles 18:8, 2 Chronicles 18:8, Jeremiah 38:6, Jeremiah 38:7, 2 Chronicles 34:8

26and ye shall say, Thus, saith the king, Put ye this one into the prison,—and feed him with the bread of oppression, and with the water of oppression, until I return in peace.

2 Chronicles 16:10, 2 Chronicles 16:10, Psalms 10:5, Jeremiah 20:2, Jeremiah 20:3

27Then said Micaiah, If thou do, at all return, in peace, Yahweh hath not spoken by me. And he said, Hear! ye peoples, all!

Amos 9:10, Mark 7:14, Micah 1:2, Numbers 16:29, Matthew 15:10

28Then went up the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, against Ramothgilead.

1 Kings 22:29, 1 Kings 22:33, 1 Kings 22:29, 1 Kings 22:33

29And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, [I am about] to disguise myself, and enter into the battle, but, thou, put on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself, and entered into the battle.

1 Samuel 28:8, 1 Samuel 28:8, 1 Kings 20:38, 2 Chronicles 35:22, 2 Chronicles 35:23

30Now, the king of Syria, had commanded the captains of chariots which he had, saying, Ye shall not fight, with small [or] with great,—save with the king of Israel, alone.

1 Kings 20:42, Deuteronomy 1:17, Genesis 19:11, 1 Kings 20:33, 1 Kings 20:34

31So it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw Jehoshaphat, that, they, said, The king of Israel, it is. And they compassed him about, to fight,—but Jehoshaphat made outcry, and, Yahweh, helped him, yea God allured them away from him.

2 Chronicles 13:14, 2 Chronicles 13:14, Psalms 118:13, Psalms 118:13, Psalms 94:17

32And so it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him;

1 Kings 22:33, 1 Kings 22:33

33but, a certain man, drawing a bow in his innocence, smote the king of Israel between the shoulder-joints and the coat of mail,—wherefore he said to the charioteer, Turn thy hand, and convey me out of the host, for I am sore wounded.

2 Samuel 15:11, 1 Kings 22:34, 1 Kings 22:35, 2 Chronicles 35:23, 2 Samuel 15:11

34But the battle increased on that day, and, the king of Israel, was propping himself up in the chariot before the Syrians, until evening,-and died at the time of the going in of the sun.

Proverbs 13:21, Proverbs 13:21, 2 Chronicles 18:16, 2 Chronicles 18:27, Numbers 32:23
