And Micaiah said, Truly, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to keep yourself safe.
25
And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah and send him back to Amon, the ruler of the town, and to Joash, the king's son;
26
And say, By the king's order this man is to be put in prison, and given prison food till I come back in peace.
27
And Micaiah said, If you come back at all in peace, the Lord has not sent his word by me.
28
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up to Ramoth-gilead.
29
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will make a change in my clothing, so that I do not seem to be the king, and will go into the fight; but do you put on your robes. So the king of Israel made a change in his dress, and they went to the fight.
30
Now the king of Aram had given orders to the captains of his war-carriages, saying, Make no attack on small or great, but only on the king of Israel.
31
So when the captains of the war-carriages saw Jehoshaphat, they said, It is the king of Israel. And turning about, they came round him, but Jehoshaphat gave a cry, and the Lord came to his help, and God sent them away from him.
32
Now when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.
33
And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.
34
But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king of Israel was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans till the evening; and by sundown he was dead.
