25. And the king of Israel commanded, saying: Take Micheas, and carry him to Amen the governor of the city, and to Joas the son of Amelech,

26. And say: Thus saith the king: Put this fellow in prison, and give him bread and water in a small quantity till I return in peace.

27. And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.

28. So the king of Israel and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.

29. And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: I will change my dress, and so I will go to the battle, but put thou on thy own garments. And the king of Israel having changed his dress, went to the battle.

30. Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his cavalry, saying: Fight ye not with small, or great, but with the king of Israel only.

31. So when the captains of the cavalry saw Josaphat, they said: This is the king of Israel. And they surrounded him to attack him: but he cried to the Lord, and he helped him, and turned them away from him.
