1 Kings 22:14 CPDV

¹²  And all the prophets were prophesying similarly, saying: 'Ascend to Ramoth Gilead, and go forth to success. For the Lord will deliver it into the hands of the king.'

¹³  Then truly, the messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah spoke to him, saying: 'Behold, the words of the prophets, as if with one mouth, are predicting good to the king. Therefore, let your word be like theirs, and speak what is good.'

¹⁴  But Micaiah said to him, 'As the Lord lives, whatever the Lord will have said to me, this shall I speak.'

¹⁵  And so he went to the king. And the king said to him, 'Micaiah, should we go to Ramoth Gilead to do battle, or should we cease?' And he responded to him, 'Ascend, and go forth to success, and the Lord will deliver it into the hands of the king.'

¹⁶  But the king said to him, 'I require you under oath, again and again, that you not say to me anything except what is true, in the name of the Lord.'
