Contextual Overview
4 But first let's ask the Lord what to do." 5 Ahab sent for four hundred prophets and asked, "Should I attack the city of Ramoth?" "Yes!" the prophets answered. "God will help you capture the city." 6 But Jehoshaphat said, "Just to make sure, is there another of the Lord 's prophets we can ask?" 7 "We could ask Micaiah son of Imlah," Ahab said. "But I hate Micaiah. He always has bad news for me." "Don't say that!" Jehoshaphat replied. 8 Then Ahab sent someone to bring Micaiah as soon as possible. 9 All this time, Ahab and Jehoshaphat were dressed in their royal robes and were seated on their thrones at the threshing place near the gate of Samaria, listening to the prophets tell them what the Lord had said. 10 Zedekiah son of Chenaanah was one of the prophets. He had made some horns out of iron and shouted, "Ahab, the Lord says you will attack the Syrians like a bull with iron horns and wipe them out!" 11 All the prophets agreed that Ahab should attack the Syrians at Ramoth and promised that the Lord would help him defeat them. 12 Meanwhile, the messenger who went to get Micaiah whispered, "Micaiah, all the prophets have good news for Ahab. Now go and say the same thing." 13 "I'll say whatever the living Lord my God tells me to say," Micaiah replied.
