Darby's French Translation
Et il arriva que, quand les chefs des chars virent Josaphat, ils dirent: Certainement c'est le roi d'Israël. Et ils se détournèrent, pour combattre contre lui; et Josaphat cria.
Louis Segond (1910)
Quand les chefs des chars aperçurent Josaphat, ils dirent: Certainement, c'est le roi d'Israël. Et ils s'approchèrent de lui pour l'attaquer. Josaphat poussa un cri.
La Bible David Martin (1744)
Il arriva donc que dès que les capitaines des chariots eurent vu Josaphat, ils dirent : C'est certainement le Roi d'Israël; et ils se détournèrent vers lui pour le combattre, mais Josaphat s'écria.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

they turned: Proverbs 13:20

Jehoshaphat: Exodus 14:10, 2 Chronicles 18:31, Psalms 50:15, Psalms 91:15, Psalms 116:1, Psalms 116:2, Psalms 130:1-4, Jonah 2:1, Jonah 2:2

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 22:12 - Go up 2 Kings 3:7 - wilt thou go 1 Chronicles 5:20 - in the battle

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat,.... In his royal robes:

that they said, surely it is the king of Israel; for they might not know the persons either of Ahab or him, but judged by his habit:

and they turned aside to fight against him; pressed upon him with all their force, either to take him or slay him:

and Jehoshaphat cried out; with a loud voice, either to the captains to let them know who he was, or to his men to come to his assistance, or rather to God to help and deliver him; since it is said in 2 Chronicles 18:31 that the Lord helped him, and moved or inclined the hearts of the captains to depart from him, as it follows here.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Surely it is the king of Israel - This was a natural supposition, as Jehoshaphat alone wore royal robes.

And Jehoshaphat cried out - Jehoshaphat called to his men for help, using perhaps his own special battle-cry, which would be distinct from that of Ahab, and would probably be known to the Syrians.
