2 Chronicles 18:12-16
12Then the messengerH4397 whoH834 wentH1980 to summonH7121 MicaiahH4321 spokeH1696 to him sayingH559, “BeholdH2009, the wordsH1697 of the prophetsH5030 are uniformlyH259H6310 favorableH2896 to the kingH4428. So pleaseH4994 let your wordH1697 be like oneH259 of them and speakH1696 favorablyH2896.” 13But MicaiahH4321 saidH559, “As the LordH3068 livesH2416, 1whatH834 my GodH430 saysH559, that I will speakH1696.”
14When he cameH935 to the kingH4428, the kingH4428 saidH559 to him, “MicaiahH4318, shall we goH1980 to Ramoth-gileadH7433 to battleH4421, orH518 shall I refrainH2308?” He saidH559, “GoH5927 up and succeedH6743, for they will be givenH5414 into your handH3027.” 15Then the kingH4428 saidH559 to him, “HowH5704H4100 manyH5704H4100 timesH6471 must I adjureH7650 you to speakH1696 to me nothingH3808 but the truthH571 in the nameH8034 of the LordH3068?” 16So he saidH559, “I sawH7200 allH3605 IsraelH3478 ScatteredH6327 on the mountainsH2022, 2Like sheepH6629 whichH834 haveH369 noH369 shepherdH7462; And the LordH3068 saidH559, ‘TheseH428 have noH3808 masterH113. Let eachH376 of them returnH7725 to his houseH1004 in peaceH7965.’”
