2 Chronicles 18:6 In-Context

4 But Y'hoshafat said to the king of Isra'el, "First, we should seek the word of ADONAI."

5 So the king of Isra'el assembled the prophets, 400 men. "Should we attack Ramot-Gil'ad?" he asked them, "Or should I hold off?" They said, "Attack. God will hand it over to the king."

6 But Y'hoshafat said, "Besides these, isn't there a prophet of ADONAI here that we can consult?"

7 The king of Isra'el said to Y'hoshafat, "Yes, there is still one man through whom we can consult ADONAI; but I hate him, because he never prophesies anything good for me, only bad! It's Mikhay'hu the son of Yimlah." Y'hoshafat replied, "The king shouldn't say such a thing."

8 Then the king called an officer and said, "Quickly! Bring Mikhay'hu the son of Yimlah."
