´ëÇÏ 18:1 Now Jehoshaphat had great wealth and honor, and he allied
himself with Ahab by marriage.
´ëÇÏ 18:2 Some years later he went down to visit Ahab in Samaria. Ahab
slaughtered many sheep and cattle for him and th e people with him and
urged him to attack Ramoth Gilead.
´ëÇÏ 18:3 Ahab king of Israel asked Jehoshaphat king of Judah, "Will
you go with me against Ramoth Gilead?" J ehoshaphat replied, "I am as you
are, and my people as your people; we will join you in the war."

´ëÇÏ 18:4 But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, "First seek
the counsel of the LORD."
´ëÇÏ 18:5 So the king of Israel brought together the prophets--four
hundred men--and asked them, "Shall we go to w ar against Ramoth Gilead,
or shall I refrain?" "Go," they answered, "for God will give it into the
k ing's hand."
´ëÇÏ 18:6 But Jehoshaphat asked, "Is there not a prophet of the LORD
here whom we can inquire of?"
´ëÇÏ 18:7 The king of Israel answered Jehoshaphat, "There is still
one man through whom we can inquire of the LORD , but I hate him because
he never prophesies anything good about me, but always bad. He is Micaiah
son of Imlah." "The king should not say that," Jehoshaphat replied.
´ëÇÏ 18:8 So the king of Israel called one of his officials and said,
"Bring Micaiah son of Imlah at once."
´ëÇÏ 18:9 Dressed in their royal robes, the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat
king of Judah were sitting on their thrones at the threshing floor by the
entrance to the gate of Samaria, with all the prophets prophesying before
them.
´ëÇÏ 18:10 Now Zedekiah son of Kenaanah had made iron horns, and he
declared, "This is what the LORD says: 'With t hese you will gore the Arameans
until they are destroyed.'"
´ëÇÏ 18:11 All the other prophets were prophesying the same thing.
"Attack Ramoth Gilead and be victorious," they said, "for the LORD will
give it into the king's hand."
´ëÇÏ18:12 ¼±ÁöÀÚ ¹Ì°¡¾ßÀÇ ¿¹¾ð
´ëÇÏ 18:12 The messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah said to him,
"Look, as one man the other prophets are pred icting success for the king.
Let your word agree with theirs, and speak favorably."
´ëÇÏ 18:13 But Micaiah said, "As surely as the LORD lives, I can tell
him only what my God says."
´ëÇÏ 18:14 When he arrived, the king asked him, "Micaiah, shall we
go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or shall I ref rain?" "Attack and be victorious,"
he answered, "for they will be given into your hand."
´ëÇÏ 18:15 The king said to him, "How many times must I make you swear
to tell me nothing but the truth in the nam e of the LORD?"
´ëÇÏ 18:16 Then Micaiah answered, "I saw all Israel scattered on the
hills like sheep without a shepherd, and the LORD said, 'These people have
no master. Let each one go home in peace.'"
´ëÇÏ 18:17 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Didn't I tell you
that he never prophesies anything good about me, but only bad?"
´ëÇÏ 18:18 Micaiah continued, "Therefore hear the word of the LORD:
I saw the LORD sitting on his throne with all the host of heaven standing
on his right and on his left.
´ëÇÏ 18:19 And the LORD said, 'Who will entice Ahab king of Israel
into attacking Ramoth Gilead and going to his death there?' "One suggested
this, and another that.
´ëÇÏ 18:20 Finally, a spirit came forward, stood before the LORD and
said, 'I will entice him.' "'By what means?' the LORD asked.
´ëÇÏ 18:21 "'I will go and be a lying spirit in the mouths of all his
prophets,' he said. "'You will succeed in enticing him,' said the LORD.
'Go and do it.'
´ëÇÏ 18:22 "So now the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouths of
these prophets of yours. The LORD has decreed disaster for you."
´ëÇÏ 18:23 Then Zedekiah son of Kenaanah went up and slapped Micaiah
in the face. "Which way did the spirit from t he LORD go when he went from
me to speak to you?" he asked.
´ëÇÏ 18:24 Micaiah replied, "You will find out on the day you go to
hide in an inner room."
´ëÇÏ 18:25 The king of Israel then ordered, "Take Micaiah and send
him back to Amon the ruler of the city and to J oash the king's son,
´ëÇÏ 18:26 and say, 'This is what the king says: Put this fellow in
prison and give him nothing but bread and water unt il I return safely.'"
´ëÇÏ 18:27 Micaiah declared, "If you ever return safely, the LORD has
not spoken through me." Then he added, "Mark my words, all you people!"
´ëÇÏ18:28 ¾ÆÇÕÀÇ Àü»ç
´ëÇÏ 18:28 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went
up to Ramoth Gilead.
´ëÇÏ 18:29 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will enter the
battle in disguise, but you wear your royal r obes." So the king of Israel
disguised himself and went into battle.
´ëÇÏ 18:30 Now the king of Aram had ordered his chariot commanders,
"Do not fight with anyone, small or great, exc ept the king of Israel."
´ëÇÏ 18:31 When the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they thought,
"This is the king of Israel." So they t urned to attack him, but Jehoshaphat
cried out, and the LORD helped him. God drew them away from him,
´ëÇÏ 18:32 for when the chariot commanders saw that he was not the
king of Israel, they stopped pursuing him.
´ëÇÏ 18:33 But someone drew his bow at random and hit the king of Israel
between the sections of his armor. The king to ld the chariot driver, "Wheel
around and get me out of the fighting. I've been wounded."
´ëÇÏ 18:34 All day long the battle raged, and the king of Israel propped
himself up in his chariot facing the Arameans until evening. Then at sunset
he died. |
