1 Kings 22:6-12

6Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 gatheredH6908 the prophetsH5030 togetherH6908, aboutH5921 fourH702 hundredH3967 menH376, and saidH559 unto them, Shall I goH5927 againstH5921 Ramoth-gileadH7433 to battleH4421, or shall I forbear? And they saidH559, GoH5927 upH5927; for the LordH136 shall deliverH5414 it intoH413 the handH3027 of the kingH4428.

7But JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, Is there notH369 hereH6311 besidesH5750 a prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068, that we might inquireH1875 of him?

8And the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JehoshaphatH3092, There is yet one manH376 by whomH259 weH3588 may inquireH1875 of the LORDH3068, MicaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of ImlahH3229: but I hateH8130 him; for he doth notH3808 prophesyH5012 goodH2896 concerning meH413, but evilH7451. And JehoshaphatH3092 saidH559, LetH408 notH3808 the kingH4428 sayH559 soH3651.

9Then the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 calledH7121 an officerH5631, and saidH559, Fetch quicklyH4116 MicaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of ImlahH3229.

10Now the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 and JehoshaphatH3092 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 satH3427 eachH376 on his throneH3678, arrayedH3847 in their robesH899, in an openH6440 placeH3605 at the entranceH6607 of the gateH8179 of SamariaH8111; and allH3605 the prophetsH5030 prophesiedH5012 beforeH6440 them.

11And ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of ChenaanahH3668 madeH6213 him hornsH7161 of ironH1270, and saidH559, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, With theseH428 shalt thou pushH5055 the Syrians, untilH5704 they be consumedH3615.

12And allH3605 the prophetsH5030 prophesiedH5012 soH3651, sayingH559, GoH5927 upH5927 to Ramoth-gileadH7433, and prosperH6743: for the LORDH3068 shall deliverH5414 it intoH3027 the handH3027 of the kingH4428.
