*
So the king of Israel and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad .
*
And the king of Israel said to Josaphat :
I will change my dress ,
and so I will go to the battle ,
but put thou on thy own garments .
And the king of Israel having changed his dress ,
went to the battle .
*
Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his cavalry ,
saying :
Fight ye not with small ,
or great ,
but with the king of Israel only .
*
So when the captains of the cavalry saw Josaphat ,
they said :
This is the king of Israel .
And they surrounded him to attack him :
but he cried to the Lord ,
and he helped him ,
and turned them away from him .
*
For when the captains of the cavalry saw ,
that he was not the king of Israel ,
they left him .
*
And it happened that one of the people shot an arrow at a venture ,
and struck the king of Israel between the neck and the shoulders ,
and he said to his chariot man :
Turn thy hand ,
and carry me out of the battle ,
for I am wounded .
*
And the fight was ended that day :
but the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians until the evening ,
and died at the sunset .
