29 Le roi d’Israël et Josaphat, roi de Juda, montèrent à Ramoth en Galaad.
30 Le roi d’Israël dit à Josaphat: Je veux me déguiser pour aller au combat; mais toi, revêts-toi de tes habits. Et le roi d’Israël se déguisa, et alla au combat.
31 Le roi de Syrie avait donné cet ordre aux trente-deux chefs de ses chars: Vous n’attaquerez ni petits ni grands, mais vous attaquerez seulement le roi d’Israël.
32 Quand les chefs des chars aperçurent Josaphat, ils dirent: Certainement, c’est le roi d’Israël. Et ils s’approchèrent de lui pour l’attaquer. Josaphat poussa un cri.
33 Les chefs des chars, voyant que ce n’était pas le roi d’Israël, s’éloignèrent de lui.
