14. So he came to the king: and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or forbear? And he answered him: Go up, for all shall succeed prosperously, and the enemies shall be delivered into your hands.
15. And the king said: I adjure thee again and again to say nothing but the truth to me, in the name of the Lord.
16. Then he said: I saw all Israel scattered in the mountains, like sheep without a shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no masters: let every man return to his own house in peace.
17. And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee that this man would not prophesy me any good, but evil?
