1 Kings 22

1 Ahab, seduced by false prophets, according to the word of Micaiah, is slain at Ramoth-gilead. 37 The dogs lick up his blood, and Ahaziah succeedeth him. 41 Jehoshaphat's good reign. 45 His acts. 50 Jehoram succeedeth him. 51 Ahaziah's evil reign.

 22:1 ¶ And they continued 3427 z8799 three 7969 years 8141 without x369 war 4421 between x996 Syria 758 and Israel. 3478

 22:2 And it came to pass x1961 in the third 7992 year, 8141 that Jehoshaphat 3092 the king 4428 of Judah 3063 came down 3381 z8799 to x413 the king 4428 of Israel. 3478

 22:3 And the king 4428 of Israel 3478 said 559 z8799 unto x413 his servants, 5650 Know 3045 z8804 ye that x3588 Ramoth y7433 in Gilead y1568 x7433 [is] ours, and we x587 [be] still, 2814 z8688 [and] take 3947 z8800 x4480 it not out of the hand 3027 x4480 of the king 4428 of Syria? 758

 22:4 And he said 559 z8799 unto x413 Jehoshaphat, 3092 Wilt thou go y3212 z8799 x1980 with x854 me to battle 4421 to Ramothgilead? 7433 y1568 And Jehoshaphat 3092 said 559 z8799 to x413 the king 4428 of Israel, 3478 I [am] as thou y3644 [art], my people 5971 as thy people, 5971 my horses 5483 as thy horses. 5483

 22:5 And Jehoshaphat 3092 said 559 z8799 unto x413 the king 4428 of Israel, 3478 Enquire, 1875 z8798 I pray thee, x4994 at x853 the word 1697 of Yahweh 3068 to day. 3117

 22:6 Then the king 4428 of Israel 3478 gathered y6908 z0 the prophets y5030 together, 6908 z8799 x853 x5030 about four 702 hundred 3967 men, 376 and said 559 z8799 unto x413 them, Shall I go y3212 z8799 x1980 against x5921 Ramothgilead 7433 y1568 to battle, 4421 or x518 shall I forbear? 2308 z8799 And they said, 559 z8799 Go up; 5927 z8798 for Yahweh 136 shall deliver 5414 z8799 [it] into the hand 3027 of the king. 4428

 22:7 And Jehoshaphat 3092 said, 559 z8799 [Is there] not x369 here x6311 a prophet 5030 of Yahweh 3068 besides, 5750 that we might enquire 1875 z8799 of x4480 x854 him?

 22:8 And the king 4428 of Israel 3478 said 559 z8799 unto x413 Jehoshaphat, 3092 [There is] yet x5750 one 259 man, 376 Micaiah 4321 the son 1121 of Imlah, 3229 by x4480 x854 whom we may enquire 1875 z8800 of x853 Yahweh: 3068 but I x589 hate 8130 z8804 him; for x3588 he doth not x3808 prophesy 5012 z8691 good 2896 concerning x5921 me, but x3588 x518 evil. 7451 And Jehoshaphat 3092 said, 559 z8799 Let not x408 the king 4428 say 559 z8799 so. x3651

 22:9 Then the king 4428 of Israel 3478 called 7121 z8799 x413 an 259 officer, 5631 and said, 559 z8799 Hasten 4116 z8761 [hither] Micaiah 4321 the son 1121 of Imlah. 3229

 22:10 And the king 4428 of Israel 3478 and Jehoshaphat 3092 the king 4428 of Judah 3063 sat 3427 z8802 each 376 on x5921 his throne, 3678 having put on 3847 z8794 their robes, 899 in a void place 1637 in the entrance 6607 of the gate 8179 of Samaria; 8111 and all x3605 the prophets 5030 prophesied 5012 z8693 before 6440 them.

 22:11 And Zedekiah 6667 the son 1121 of Chenaanah 3668 made 6213 z8799 him horns 7161 of iron: 1270 and he said, 559 z8799 Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 Yahweh, 3068 With these x428 shalt thou push 5055 z8762 x853 the Syrians, 758 until x5704 thou have consumed 3615 z8763 them.

 22:12 And all x3605 the prophets 5030 prophesied 5012 z8737 so, x3651 saying, 559 z8800 Go up 5927 z8798 to Ramothgilead, 7433 y1568 and prosper: 6743 z8685 for Yahweh 3068 shall deliver 5414 z8804 [it] into the king's 4428 hand. 3027

 22:13 And the messenger 4397 that x834 was gone 1980 z8804 to call 7121 z8800 Micaiah 4321 spake 1696 z8765 unto x413 him, saying, 559 z8800 Behold x2009 now, x4994 the words 1697 of the prophets 5030 [declare] good 2896 unto x413 the king 4428 with one 259 mouth: 6310 let thy word, 1697 I pray thee, x4994 be x1961 like the word 1697 of one 259 of them, x4480 and speak 1696 z8765 [that which is] good. 2896

 22:14 And Micaiah 4321 said, 559 z8799 [As] Yahweh 3068 liveth, 2416 what x834 Yahweh 3068 saith 559 z8799 unto x413 me, that will I speak. 1696 z8762

 22:15 ¶ So he came 935 z8799 to x413 the king. 4428 And the king 4428 said 559 z8799 unto x413 him, Micaiah, 4321 shall we go y3212 z8799 x1980 against x413 Ramothgilead 7433 y1568 to battle, 4421 or x518 shall we forbear? 2308 z8799 And he answered 559 z8799 x413 him, Go, 5927 z8798 and prosper: 6743 z8685 for Yahweh 3068 shall deliver 5414 z8804 [it] into the hand 3027 of the king. 4428

 22:16 And the king 4428 said 559 z8799 unto x413 him, How x5704 many x4100 times 6471 shall I x589 adjure 7650 z8688 thee that x834 thou tell 1696 z8762 x413 me nothing x3808 but x7535 [that which is] true 571 in the name 8034 of Yahweh? 3068

 22:17 And he said, 559 z8799 I saw 7200 z8804 x853 all x3605 Israel 3478 scattered 6327 z8737 upon x413 the hills, 2022 as sheep 6629 that x834 have not x369 a shepherd: 7462 z8802 and Yahweh 3068 said, 559 z8799 These x428 have no x3808 adon: 113 let them return 7725 z8799 every man 376 to his house 1004 in peace. 7965

 22:18 And the king 4428 of Israel 3478 said 559 z8799 unto x413 Jehoshaphat, 3092 Did I not x3808 tell 559 z8804 x413 thee that he would prophesy 5012 z8691 no x3808 good 2896 concerning x5921 me, but x3588 x518 evil? 7451

 22:19 And he said, 559 z8799 Hear 8085 z8798 thou therefore x3651 the word 1697 of Yahweh: 3068 I saw 7200 z8804 x853 Yahweh 3068 sitting 3427 z8802 on x5921 his throne, 3678 and all x3605 the host 6635 of heaven 8064 standing 5975 z8802 by x5921 him on his right hand 3225 x4480 and on his left. 8040 x4480

 22:20 And Yahweh 3068 said, 559 z8799 Who x4310 shall persuade 6601 z8762 x853 Ahab, 256 that he may go up 5927 z8799 and fall 5307 z8799 at Ramothgilead? 7433 y1568 And one x2088 said 559 z8799 on this manner, 3541 and another x2088 said 559 z8802 on that manner. 3541

 22:21 And there came forth 3318 z8799 a spirit, 7307 and stood 5975 z8799 before 6440 Yahweh, 3068 and said, 559 z8799 I x589 will persuade 6601 z8762 him.

 22:22 And Yahweh 3068 said 559 z8799 unto x413 him, Wherewith? x4100 And he said, 559 z8799 I will go forth, 3318 z8799 and I will be x1961 a lying 8267 spirit 7307 in the mouth 6310 of all x3605 his prophets. 5030 And he said, 559 z8799 Thou shalt persuade 6601 z8762 [him], and prevail 3201 z8799 also: x1571 go forth, 3318 z8798 and do 6213 z8798 so. x3651

 22:23 Now x6258 therefore, behold, x2009 Yahweh 3068 hath put 5414 z8804 a lying 8267 spirit 7307 in the mouth 6310 of all x3605 these x428 thy prophets, 5030 and Yahweh 3068 hath spoken 1696 z8765 evil 7451 concerning x5921 thee.

 22:24 But Zedekiah 6667 the son 1121 of Chenaanah 3668 went near, 5066 z8799 and smote 5221 z8686 x853 Micaiah 4321 on x5921 the cheek, 3895 and said, 559 z8799 Which x335 way y335 x2088 went 5674 z8804 the Spirit 7307 of Yahweh 3068 from x4480 x854 me to speak 1696 z8763 unto x854 thee?

 22:25 And Micaiah 4321 said, 559 z8799 Behold, x2009 thou shalt see 7200 z8802 in that x1931 day, 3117 when x834 thou shalt go y935 z8799 into x935 an inner 2315 chamber 2315 to hide y2247 z8736 thyself. x2247

 22:26 And the king 4428 of Israel 3478 said, 559 z8799 Take 3947 z8798 x853 Micaiah, 4321 and carry him back 7725 z8685 unto x413 Amon 526 the governor 8269 of the city, 5892 and to x413 Joash 3101 the king's 4428 son; 1121

 22:27 And say, 559 z8804 Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the king, 4428 Put 7760 z8798 x853 this x2088 [fellow] in the prison, 1004 3608 and feed 398 z8685 him with bread 3899 of affliction 3906 and with water 4325 of affliction, 3906 until x5704 I come 935 z8800 in peace. 7965

 22:28 And Micaiah 4321 said, 559 z8799 If x518 thou return y7725 z8799 at all 7725 z8800 in peace, 7965 Yahweh 3068 hath not x3808 spoken 1696 z8765 by me. And he said, 559 z8799 Hearken, 8085 z8798 O people, 5971 every x3605 one of you.

 22:29 So the king 4428 of Israel 3478 and Jehoshaphat 3092 the king 4428 of Judah 3063 went up 5927 z8799 to Ramothgilead. 7433 y1568

 22:30 And the king 4428 of Israel 3478 said 559 z8799 unto x413 Jehoshaphat, 3092 I will disguise y2664 z8692 myself, x2664 and enter 935 z8800 into the battle; 4421 but put x3847 thou x859 on y3847 z8798 thy robes. 899 And the king 4428 of Israel 3478 disguised y2664 z8691 himself, x2664 and went 935 z8799 into the battle. 4421

 22:31 But the king 4428 of Syria 758 commanded 6680 z8765 x853 his x834 thirty 7970 and two 8147 captains y8269 that had rule over x8269 his x834 chariots, 7393 saying, 559 z8800 Fight 3898 z8735 neither x3808 with x854 small 6996 nor great, 1419 save x3588 x518 only x905 with x854 the king 4428 of Israel. 3478

 22:32 And it came to pass, x1961 when the captains 8269 of the chariots 7393 saw 7200 z8800 x853 Jehoshaphat, 3092 that they x1992 said, 559 z8804 Surely x389 it x1931 [is] the king 4428 of Israel. 3478 And they turned aside 5493 z8799 to fight 3898 z8736 against x5921 him: and Jehoshaphat 3092 cried out. 2199 z8799

 22:33 And it came to pass, x1961 when the captains 8269 of the chariots 7393 perceived 7200 z8800 that x3588 it x1931 [was] not x3808 the king 4428 of Israel, 3478 that they turned back 7725 z8799 from pursuing 310 x4480 him.

 22:34 And a [certain] man 376 drew 4900 z8804 a bow 7198 at a venture, 8537 and smote 5221 z8686 x853 the king 4428 of Israel 3478 between x996 the joints 1694 of the harness: 8302 wherefore he said 559 z8799 unto the driver of his chariot, 7395 Turn 2015 z8798 thine hand, 3027 and carry me out 3318 z8685 of x4480 the host; 4264 for x3588 I am wounded. 2470 z8717

 22:35 And the battle 4421 increased 5927 z8799 that x1931 day: 3117 and the king 4428 was x1961 stayed up 5975 z8716 in his chariot 4818 against 5227 the Syrians, 758 and died 4191 z8799 at even: 6153 and the blood 1818 ran out 3332 z8799 of the wound 4347 into x413 the midst 2436 of the chariot. 7393

 22:36 And there went 5674 z8799 a proclamation 7440 throughout the host 4264 about the going down 935 z8800 of the sun, 8121 saying, 559 z8800 Every man 376 to x413 his city, 5892 and every man 376 to x413 his own country. 776

 22:37 ¶ So the king 4428 died, 4191 z8799 and was brought 935 z8799 to Samaria; 8111 and they buried 6912 z8799 x853 the king 4428 in Samaria. 8111

 22:38 And [one] washed 7857 z8799 x853 the chariot 7393 in x5921 the pool 1295 of Samaria; 8111 and the dogs 3611 licked up 3952 z8799 x853 his blood; 1818 and they washed 7364 z8804 his armour; 2185 according unto the word 1697 of Yahweh 3068 which x834 he spake. 1696 z8765

 22:39 Now the rest 3499 of the acts 1697 of Ahab, 256 and all x3605 that x834 he did, 6213 z8804 and the ivory 8127 house 1004 which x834 he made, 1129 z8804 and all x3605 the cities 5892 that x834 he built, 1129 z8804 [are] they x1992 not x3808 written 3789 z8803 in x5921 the book 5612 of the chronicles 1697 3117 of the kings 4428 of Israel? 3478

 22:40 So Ahab 256 slept 7901 z8799 with x5973 his fathers; 1 and Ahaziah 274 his son 1121 reigned 4427 z8799 in his stead. x8478

 22:41 ¶ And Jehoshaphat 3092 the son 1121 of Asa 609 began to reign 4427 z8804 over x5921 Judah 3063 in the fourth 702 year 8141 of Ahab 256 king 4428 of Israel. 3478

 22:42 Jehoshaphat 3092 [was] thirty 7970 and five 2568 years 8141 old 1121 when he began to reign; 4427 z8800 and he reigned 4427 z8804 twenty 6242 and five 2568 years 8141 in Jerusalem. 3389 And his mother's 517 name 8034 [was] Azubah 5806 the daughter 1323 of Shilhi. 7977

 22:43 And he walked y3212 z8799 x1980 in all x3605 the ways 1870 of Asa 609 his father; 1 he turned not aside 5493 z8804 x3808 from x4480 it, doing 6213 z8800 [that which was] right 3477 in the eyes 5869 of Yahweh: 3068 nevertheless x389 the high places 1116 were not x3808 taken away; 5493 z8804 [for] the people 5971 offered 2076 z8764 and burnt incense 6999 z8764 yet x5750 in the high places. 1116

 22:44 And Jehoshaphat 3092 made peace 7999 z8686 with x5973 the king 4428 of Israel. 3478

 22:45 Now the rest 3499 of the acts 1697 of Jehoshaphat, 3092 and his might 1369 that x834 he shewed, 6213 z8804 and how x834 he warred, 3898 z8738 [are] they x1992 not x3808 written 3789 z8803 in x5921 the book 5612 of the chronicles 1697 3117 of the kings 4428 of Judah? 3063

 22:46 And the remnant 3499 of the sodomites, 6945 which x834 remained 7604 z8738 in the days 3117 of his father 1 Asa, 609 he took 1197 z8765 out of x4480 the land. 776

 22:47 [There was] then no x369 king 4428 in Edom: 123 a deputy 5324 z8737 [was] king. 4428

 22:48 Jehoshaphat 3092 made 6213 z8804 z8675 y6240 ships 591 of Tharshish 8659 to go y3212 z8800 x1980 to Ophir 211 for gold: 2091 but they went 1980 z8804 not; x3808 for x3588 the ships 591 were broken 7665 z8738 at Eziongeber. 6100

 22:49 Then x227 said 559 z8804 Ahaziah 274 the son 1121 of Ahab 256 unto x413 Jehoshaphat, 3092 Let my servants 5650 go y3212 z8799 x1980 with x5973 thy servants 5650 in the ships. 591 But Jehoshaphat 3092 would 14 z8804 not. x3808

 22:50 ¶ And Jehoshaphat 3092 slept 7901 z8799 with x5973 his fathers, 1 and was buried 6912 z8735 with x5973 his fathers 1 in the city 5892 of David 1732 his father: 1 and Jehoram 3088 his son 1121 reigned 4427 z8799 in his stead. x8478

 22:51 ¶ Ahaziah 274 the son 1121 of Ahab 256 began to reign 4427 z8804 over x5921 Israel 3478 in Samaria 8111 the seventeenth 7651 6240 year 8141 of Jehoshaphat 3092 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 and reigned 4427 z8799 two years 8141 over x5921 Israel. 3478

 22:52 And he did 6213 z8799 evil 7451 in the sight 5869 of Yahweh, 3068 and walked y3212 z8799 x1980 in the way 1870 of his father, 1 and in the way 1870 of his mother, 517 and in the way 1870 of Jeroboam 3379 the son 1121 of Nebat, 5028 who x834 made Israel y3478 to sin: 2398 z8689 x853 x3478

 22:53 For he served 5647 z8799 x853 Baal, 1168 and worshipped 7812 z8691 him, and provoked to anger 3707 z8686 x853 Yahweh 3068 Elohim 430 of Israel, 3478 according to all x3605 that x834 his father 1 had done. 6213 z8804
