1 Kings 22:6-8

International Standard Version

⁶ So the king of Israel called in about 400 prophets and asked them, “Should we go attack Ramoth-gilead, or should I call off the attack?”^[a]

“Go attack them,” they all said, “because the Lord will drop them right into the king’s hand!”

⁷ But Jehoshaphat asked, “Isn’t there a prophet of the Lord left here that we could talk to?”

⁸ “There is still one man left by whom we could ask the Lord what to do,”^[b] the king of Israel replied to Jehoshaphat, “but I hate him because he never prophesies anything good about me. Instead, he prophesies evil. He is Imla’s son Micaiah.”

But Jehoshaphat rebuked Ahab, “Kings^[c] should never talk like that.”
