2 Chronicles 18:1–8

Now Jehoshaphat ^ahad riches and honour in abundance, and ^bjoined affinity with Ahab. ²And after certain years ^che went down to Ahab to ^dSamaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people that he had with him, and ^epersuaded him to go up with him to ^fRamoth-gilead. ³And Ahab king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go with me to Ramoth-gilead? And he answered him, I am as thou art, and my people as thy people; and we will be with thee in the war. ⁴And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the Lord to day. ⁵Therefore 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. ⁶But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord besides, that we might inquire of him? ⁷And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we may inquire 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. ⁸And the king of Israel called for one of his officers, and said, Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imla.
