Old Testament2 ChroniclesJehoshaphat and Ahab Consult the False Prophets · 18:4–1118:4 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Enquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to day.18:5 Therefore the king of Israel gathered together of prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; for God will deliver it into the king’s hand.18:6 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the LORD besides, that we might enquire of him?18:7 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we may enquire of the LORD: but I hate him; for he never prophesied good unto me, but always evil: the same is Micaiah the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.18:8 And the king of Israel called for one of his officers, and said, Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imla.18:9 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah sat either of them on his throne, clothed in their robes, and they sat in a void place at the entering in of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.18:10 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made him horns of iron, and said, Thus saith the LORD, With these thou shalt push Syria until they be consumed.18:11 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver it into the hand of the king.
