14:018:019 And the lord said, Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that
           he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead?  And one spake saying
           after this manner, and another saying after that manner.

14:018:020 Then there came out a spirit, and stood before the lord, and
           said, I will entice him.  And the lord said unto him,
           Wherewith?

14:018:021 And he said, I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth
           of all his prophets.  And the Lord said, Thou shalt entice him,
           and thou shalt also prevail:  go out, and do even so.

14:018:022 Now therefore, behold, the lord hath put a lying spirit in the
           mouth of these thy prophets, and the lord hath spoken evil
           against thee.

14:018:023 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote
           Micaiah upon the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of
           the lord from me to speak unto thee?

14:018:024 And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see on that day when thou
           shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.

14:018:025 Then the king of Israel said, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him
           back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king’s
           son;

14:018:026 And say, Thus saith the king, Put this fellow in the prison,
           and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of
           affliction, until I return in peace.

14:018:027 And Micaiah said, If thou certainly return in peace, then hath
           not the lord spoken by me.  And he said, Hearken, all ye
           people.

14:018:028 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went
           up to Ramothgilead.

14:018:029 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise
           myself, and I will go to the battle; but put thou on thy
           robes.  So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went
           to the battle.

14:018:030 Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the
           chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small
           or great, save only with the king of Israel.

14:018:031 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw
           Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. 
           Therefore they compassed about him to fight:  but Jehoshaphat
           cried out, and the lord helped him; and God moved them to
           depart from him.

14:018:032 For it came to pass, that, when the captains of the chariots
           perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back
           again from pursuing him.
