Jehoshaphat Of Judah Allies With Ahab Of Israel

13 The messenger who went to call Micaiah instructed him, “Look, the words of the prophets are unanimously favorable for the king. So let your words be like theirs, and speak favorably.” 14 But Micaiah said, “As the Lord lives, I will say whatever the Lord says to me.” 15 So he went to the king, and the king asked him, “Micaiah, should we go to Ramoth-gilead for war, or should we refrain?”

Micaiah told him, “March up and succeed. Yahweh will hand it over to the king.”
