1
And there passed three years without war between Syria and Israel.
2
And in the third year, Josaphat, king of Juda, came down to the king of Israel.
3
(And the king of Israel said to his servants: Know ye not that Ramoth Galaad is ours, and we neglect to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?)
4
And he said to Josaphat: Wilt thou come with me to battle to Ramoth Galaad?
5
And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: As I am, so art thou: my people and thy people are one: and my horsemen are thy horsemen. And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, this day the word of the Lord.
