2 Chronicles 18:10-23

10Now ZedekiahH6667 sonH1121 of ChenaanahH3668 had madeH6213 for himself ironH1270 hornsH7161 and declaredH559, “This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559: ‘With theseH428 you shall goreH5055 the ArameansH758 untilH5704 they are finished offH3615.’”

11And allH3605 the prophetsH5030 were prophesyingH5012 the sameH3651, sayingH559, “Go upH5927 to Ramoth-gileadH7418H1568 and triumphH6743, for the LORDH3068 will deliverH5414 it into the handH3027 of the kingH4428.”

12Then the messengerH4397 whoH834 had goneH1980 to callH7121 MicaiahH4321 instructed himH1696, “BeholdH2009, with oneH6310 accordH259 the wordsH1697 of the prophetsH5030 are favorableH2896 toH413 the kingH4428. So pleaseH4994 let your wordsH1697 beH1961 likeH259 theirs, and speakH1696 favorablyH2896.”

13But MicaiahH4321 saidH559, “As surely as the LORDH3068H3588 livesH2416, I will speakH1696 whateverH834 my GodH430 tells meH559.”

14When Micaiah arrivedH935, the kingH4428 askedH559 himH413, “MicaiahH4318, should we goH1980 to warH4421 againstH413 Ramoth-gileadH7418H1568, orH518 should we refrainH2308?”

“Go upH5927 and triumphH6743,” Micaiah repliedH559, “for they will be deliveredH5414 into your handH3027.”

15But the kingH4428 saidH559 to himH413, “How manyH5704H4100 timesH6471 must IH589 make you swearH7650 notH3808 to tell meH1696H413 anything butH7535 the truthH571 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068?”

16So Micaiah declaredH559:

17Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 toH413 JehoshaphatH3092, “Did I notH3808 tellH559 youH413 that he neverH3808 prophesiesH5012 goodH2896 for meH5921, but onlyH3588H518 badH7451?”

18Micaiah continuedH559, “ThereforeH3651 hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: I sawH7200 the LORDH3068 sittingH3427 onH5921 His throneH3678, and allH3605 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 standingH5975 onH5921 His rightH3225 and on His leftH8040.

19And the LORDH3068 saidH559, ‘WhoH4310 will enticeH6601 AhabH256 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 to march upH5927 and fallH5307 at Ramoth-gileadH7418H1568?’

And oneH2088 suggestedH559 thisH3602, and anotherH2088 thatH3602.

20Then a spiritH7307 came forwardH3318, stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, ‘IH589 will entice himH6601.’

‘By what meansH4100?’ askedH559 the LORDH3068H413.

21And he repliedH559, ‘I will go outH3318 and beH1961 a lyingH8267 spiritH7307 in the mouthsH6310 of allH3605 his prophetsH5030.’

‘You will surely entice himH6601 andH1571 prevailH3201,’ saidH559 the LORD. ‘GoH3318 and doH6213 itH3651.’

22SoH6258 you seeH2009, the LORDH3068 has putH5414 a lyingH8267 spiritH7307 in the mouthsH6310 of theseH428 prophets of yoursH5030, and the LORDH3068 has pronouncedH1696 disasterH7451 against youH5921.”

23Then ZedekiahH6667 sonH1121 of ChenaanahH3668 went upH5066, struckH5221 MicaiahH4321 inH5921 the faceH3895, and demandedH559, “WhichH335H2088 wayH1870 did the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 go when He departedH5674 from meH854 to speakH1696 with youH854?”
