5 But," Jehoshaphat said to Israel’s king, "first let’s see what the Lord has to say."
6 So Israel’s king gathered about four hundred prophets, and he asked them, "Should I go to war with Ramoth-gilead or not?""Attack!" the prophets answered. "The Lord will hand it over to the king."
7 But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn’t there any other prophet of the Lord whom we could ask?"
8 "There is one other man who could ask the Lord for us," Israel’s king told Jehoshaphat, "but I hate him because he never prophesies anything good about me, only bad. His name is Micaiah, Imlah’s son.""The king shouldn’t speak like that!" Jehoshaphat said.
9 So Israel’s king called an officer and ordered, "Bring Micaiah, Imlah’s son, right away."
10 Now Israel’s king and Judah’s King Jehoshaphat were sitting on their thrones, dressed in their royal robes at the threshing floor beside the entrance to the gate of Samaria. All the prophets were prophesying in front of them.
11 Zedekiah, Chenaanah’s son, made iron horns for himself and said, "This is what the Lord says: With these horns you will gore the Arameans until there’s nothing left of them!"
