11 All the other prophets said the same thing, "Attack Ramoth in Gilead and win, because the Lord will hand the Arameans over to you."
12 The messenger who had gone to get Micaiah said to him, "All the other prophets are saying King Ahab will win. You should agree with them and give the king a good answer."
13 But Micaiah answered, "As surely as the Lord lives, I can tell him only what my God says."
14 When Micaiah came to Ahab, the king asked him, "Micaiah, should we attack Ramoth in Gilead or not?" Micaiah answered, "Attack and win! They will be handed over to you."
15 But Ahab said to Micaiah, "How many times do I have to tell you to speak only the truth to me in the name of the Lord?"
