1 Kings 22:13-15

Expanded Bible

¹³ The messenger who had gone to get Micaiah said to him, “All the ·other prophets are saying King Ahab will succeed [words of the prophets are favorable to the king]. ·You should agree with them and give the king a good answer [Let your word be like theirs and speak favorably].”

¹⁴ But Micaiah answered, “As surely as the Lord lives, I ·can tell him [will say] only what the Lord tells me.”

¹⁵ When Micaiah came to Ahab, the king asked him, “Micaiah, should we attack Ramoth in Gilead or ·not [hold back]?”

Micaiah answered, “Attack and ·win [triumph; prosper]! The Lord will hand them over to you [^CMicaiah must have spoken sarcastically].”
