27. and say, ‘This is what the king says: Put this guy in prison and feed him only bread and water until I come back safely.’ ”
28. But Micaiah said, “If you ever return safely, the Lord has not spoken through me.” Then he said, “Listen, all you people! ”
29. Then the king of Israel and Judah’s King Jehoshaphat went up to Ramoth-gilead.
30. But the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and go into battle, but you wear your royal attire.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.
31. Now the king of Aram had ordered his 32 chariot commanders, “Do not fight with anyone at all except the king of Israel.”
32. When the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they shouted, “He must be the king of Israel! ” So they turned to fight against him, but Jehoshaphat cried out.
33. When the chariot commanders saw that he was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
34. But a man drew his bow without taking special aim and struck the king of Israel through the joints of his armor. So he said to his charioteer, “Turn around and take me out of the battle, for I am badly wounded! ”
35. The battle raged throughout that day, and the king was propped up in his chariot facing the Arameans. He died that evening, and blood from his wound flowed into the bottom of the chariot.
36. Then the cry rang out in the army as the sun set, declaring:Each man to his own city,and each man to his own land!
37. So the king died and was brought to Samaria. They buried the king in Samaria.
