And Micaiah said, As the Lord liveth, even what my God saith, that will I speak. But Micaiah said, "As the Lord lives, what my God says, that I will speak." But Micaiah answered, "As surely as the Lord lives, I can tell him only what my God says." But Micaiah said, "As certainly as the Lord lives, I will say what my God tells me to say!" But Micaiah said, "As the LORD lives, I will [only] speak what my God says." But Micaiah said, "As the LORD lives, whatever my God says, I will speak it."

But Micaiah said, "As Yahweh lives, only what my God has said, that will I speak." And Micaiah said, As Jehovah lives, surely that which my God says, that I shall speak.
