1 Kings 22:12-18 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

12. And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-Gilead, and prosper; for Jehovah will give it into the king's hand.

13. And the messenger that went to call Micah spoke to him saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one assent: let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word of one of them, and speak good.

14. And Micah said, As Jehovah liveth, even what Jehovah shall say to me, that will I speak.

15. And he came to the king. And the king said to him, Micah, shall we go against Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or shall we forbear? And he said to him, Go up, and prosper; for Jehovah will give it into the hand of the king.

16. And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou tell me nothing but truth in the name of Jehovah?

17. And he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. And Jehovah said, These have no master: let them return every man to his house in peace.

18. And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he prophesies no good concerning me, but evil?
