12. And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramothgilead and be prospered, for the Lord shall deliver it into the king’s hand.
13. And the messenger that had gone to call Micaiah spoke unto him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets declare good unto the king with one mouth; now let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word of one of them and speak that which is good.
14. And Micaiah said, As the Lord lives, all that the Lord says unto me, that will I speak.
15. So he came to the king. And the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramothgilead to battle, or shall we forbear? And he answered him, Go and be prospered, for the Lord shall deliver it into the hand of the king.
16. And the king said unto him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the Lord?
17. Then he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the mountains as sheep without a shepherd; and the Lord said, These have no master; let them return each man to his house in peace.
