1 Kings 22:29-36

29SoH5927 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JehoshaphatH3092 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 wentH5927 upH5927 to Ramoth-gileadH7433.

30And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JehoshaphatH3092, I will disguiseH2664 myself, and goH935 intoH413 the battleH4421; but putH3847 thou on thy robesH899. And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 disguisedH2664 himselfH413, and wentH935 intoH413 the battleH4421.

31NowH3588 the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 had commandedH6680 the thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 captainsH8269 of his chariotsH7393, sayingH559, FightH3898 neitherH3808 with smallH6996 norH3808 greatH1419, save onlyH905 with the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478.

32And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when the captainsH8269 of the chariotsH7393 sawH7200 JehoshaphatH3092, that they saidH559, SurelyH389 it is the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478; and they turnedH5493 asideH5493 to fightH3898 againstH5921 him: and JehoshaphatH3092 criedH2199 outH2199.

33And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when the captainsH8269 of the chariotsH7393 sawH7200 that it was notH3808 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, that they turnedH7725 backH7725 from pursuingH310 him.

34And a certainH376 manH376 drewH4900 his bowH7198 at a venture, and smoteH5221 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 betweenH996 the joints of the harness: wherefore he saidH559 unto the driverH7395 of his chariotH7395, TurnH2015 thine handH3027, and carryH3318 meH4480 outH3318 of the hostH4264; for I am sore woundedH5221.

35And the battleH4421 increased that dayH3117: and the kingH4428 was stayedH5975 upH5927 in his chariotH4818 againstH413 the Syrians, and diedH4191 at even: and the bloodH1818 ranH3332 outH3332 of the woundH4347 intoH413 the bottomH2436 of the chariotH4818.

36And there wentH935 a cryH7440 throughoutH413 the hostH4264 aboutH413 the goingH935 down of the sunH8121, sayingH559, EveryH376 manH376 to his cityH5892, and everyH376 manH376 to his countryH776.
