2 Chronicles 18:7-9
New English Translation
7 The king of Israel answered Jehoshaphat, “There is still one man through whom we can seek the Lord’s will,[a] but I despise[b] him because he does not prophesy prosperity for me, but always[c] disaster—Micaiah son of Imlah.” Jehoshaphat said, “The king should not say such things!” 8 The king of Israel summoned an officer and said, “Quickly bring Micaiah son of Imlah.”
9 Now the king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah were sitting on their respective thrones, dressed in their royal robes, at the threshing floor at[d] the entrance of the gate of Samaria. All the prophets were prophesying before them.
