continued
three
years
without
war

Syria

strkjv@1Kings:22:2
@ And it came to pass in the
third
year
, that
Jehoshaphat
the
king
of
Judah
came
down
to the
king
of
Israel
.
strkjv@1Kings:22:3
@ And the
king

Israel
said
unto his

,
Know
ye that
Ramoth
in
Gilead
is ours, and we be
still
, and
take
it not out of the
hand
of the
king
of
Syria
?
strkjv@1Kings:22:4
@ And he
said
unto
Jehoshaphat
, Wilt thou
go
with me to
battle
to
Ramothgilead
? And
Jehoshaphat
said
to the
king
of
Israel
, I am as
thou
art, my
people
as thy
people
, my
horses
as thy
horses
.
strkjv@1Kings:22:5
@ And
Jehoshaphat
said
unto the
king
of
Israel
,
Enquire
, I pray thee, at the
word
of the
LORD
to
day
.
strkjv@1Kings:22:6
@ Then the
king
of
Israel
gathered
the
prophets
together
, about
four
hundred
men
, and
said
unto them, Shall I
go
against
Ramothgilead
to
battle
, or shall I
forbear
? And they
said
, Go
up
; for the
Lord
shall
deliver
it into the
hand
of the
king
.
strkjv@1Kings:22:7
@ And
Jehoshaphat
said
, Is there not here a
prophet
of the
LORD
besides
, that we might
enquire
of him?
strkjv@1Kings:22:8
@ And the
king

Israel
said
unto
Jehoshaphat
, There is yet
one
man
,
Micaiah
the
son
of
Imlah
, by whom we may
enquire
of the
LORD
: but I
hate
him; for he doth not
prophesy
good
concerning me, but
evil
. And
Jehoshaphat
said
, Let not the
king
say
so.
strkjv@1Kings:22:9
@ Then the
king
of
Israel
called
an
officer

hither
Micaiah

on his

on
their
robes

place
in the
entrance

gate

Samaria

prophesied
before
them.
strkjv@1Kings:22:11
@ And
Zedekiah
the
son

made
him
horns

saith
the
LORD
, With these shalt thou
push
the
Syrians
, until thou have
consumed
them.
strkjv@1Kings:22:12
@ And all the

prophesied
so,

up

LORD
shall
deliver
it into the

hand

strkjv@1Kings:22:13
@ And the
messenger
that was
gone
to
call
Micaiah
spake
unto him,
saying
, Behold now, the
words

prophets
declare
good
unto the
king
with
one
mouth
: let thy
word
, I pray thee, be like the
word
of
one
of them, and
speak
that which is
good

Micaiah

Go

adjure
thee that thou
tell
me nothing but that which is
true
in the
name
of the
LORD
?
strkjv@1Kings:22:17
@ And he
said

saw
all
Israel
scattered
upon the
hills
, as
sheep
that have not a
shepherd

LORD
said

master
: let them
return
every
man
to his
house
in
peace

strkjv@1Kings:22:18
@ And the

evil

said

Hear
thou therefore the
word

saw
the
LORD
sitting
on his

host
of
heaven
standing
by him on his right
hand

left
s@.
strkjv@1Kings:22:20

persuade
Ahab

up

fall
at
Ramothgilead

said

said
on that
manner

forth
a
spirit

stood
before
the

persuade
him.

@ And the
LORD
said
unto him, Wherewith? And he
said

forth

lying
spirit
in the
mouth
of all his

said
, Thou shalt
persuade
him, and
prevail
also: go
forth
, and
do
so.
strkjv@1Kings:22:23
@ Now therefore, behold, the
LORD
hath
put
a
lying
spirit
in the
mouth

hath
spoken
evil
concerning thee.
