13And the messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah spoke to him, saying, “Look now, the words of the prophets are with one mouth favorable to the king. Please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak favorably.”

14And Micaiah said, “As Yahweh lives, whatever Yahweh says to me, that I will speak.”

15So he came to the king, and the king said to him, “Micaiah, should we go to Ramoth-gilead for battle, or should we refrain?” And he said to him, “Go up and succeed, and Yahweh will give it into the hand of the king.”

16Then the king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear that you tell me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?”
