2 Chronicles 18 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

Moreover, Jehoshaphat ^H3092 said ^H559 to the king ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478, “Please ^H4994 inquire ^H1875 [fn]first ^H3117 for the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068.”

Now the messenger ^H4397 who ^H834 went ^H1980 to summon ^H7121 Micaiah ^H4321 spoke ^H1696 to him saying ^H559, “Behold ^H2009, the words ^H1697 of the prophets ^H5030, as if from one ^H259 mouth ^H6310, are good ^H2896 to the king ^H4428. So please ^H4994 let your word ^H1697 be like one ^H259 of them and speak ^H1696 that which is good ^H2896.”

Then he came ^H935 to the king ^H4428, and the king ^H4428 said ^H559 to him, “Micaiah ^H4318, shall we go ^H1980 to Ramoth-gilead ^H7433 to battle ^H4421, or ^H518 shall I refrain ^H2308?” And he said ^H559, “Go ^H5927 up ^H5927 and succeed ^H6743, and they will be given ^H5414 into your hand ^H3027.”

“I saw ^H7200 all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478

Scattered ^H6327 on the mountains ^H2022,

Like sheep ^H6629 which ^H834 have ^H369 no ^H369 shepherd ^H7462;

And Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559,

‘These ^H428 have no ^H3808 master ^H113.

Let each ^H376 of them return ^H7725 to his house ^H1004 in peace ^H7965.’”

So the king ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478 said ^H559 to Jehoshaphat ^H3092, “Did I not say ^H559 to you that he would not prophesy ^H5012 good ^H2896 concerning ^H5921 me, but evil ^H7451?”

Then Micaiah said ^H559, “Therefore ^H3651, hear ^H8085 the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068. I saw ^H7200 Yahweh ^H3068 sitting ^H3427 on His throne ^H3678, and all ^H3605 the host ^H6635 of heaven ^H8064 standing ^H5975 on His right ^H3225 and on His left ^H8040.

Then Zedekiah ^H6667 the son ^H1121 of Chenaanah ^H3668 approached ^H5066 and struck ^H5221 Micaiah ^H4321 on the cheek ^H3895 and said ^H559, “[fn]How ^H335 H2088 did the Spirit ^H7307 of Yahweh ^H3068 pass ^H5674 from me to speak ^H1696 to you?”

So the king ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478 and Jehoshaphat ^H3092 king ^H4428 of Judah ^H3063 went ^H5927 up ^H5927 against ^H413 Ramoth-gilead ^H7433.
