7 "There’s 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.
8 So Israel’s king called an officer and ordered, "Bring Micaiah, Imlah’s son, right away."
9 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.
10 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!"
11 The other prophets agreed: "Attack Ramoth-gilead and win! The Lord will hand it over to the king!"
12 Meanwhile, the messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah said to him, "Listen, the prophets all agree that the king will succeed. You should say the same thing they say and prophesy success."
13 But Micaiah answered, "As surely as the Lord lives, I will say only what God tells me to say."
