4
And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, "Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD today."
5
Therefore the king of Israel gathered together of prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, "Shall we go to Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I forbear?" And they said, "Go up; for God will deliver it into the king's hand."
6
But Jehoshaphat said, "Is there not here a prophet of the LORD besides these, that we might inquire of him?"
7
And 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!"
8
And the king of Israel called for one of his officers and said, "Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imla."
