1 Kings 22:6 in Context — 1 Kings 22

4 Et il dit à Josaphat: Veux-tu venir avec moi attaquer Ramoth en Galaad? Josaphat répondit au roi d’Israël: Nous irons, moi comme toi, mon peuple comme ton peuple, mes chevaux comme tes chevaux.

5 Puis Josaphat dit au roi d’Israël: Consulte maintenant, je te prie, la parole de l’Éternel.

6 Le roi d’Israël assembla les prophètes, au nombre d’environ quatre cents, et leur dit: Irai-je attaquer Ramoth en Galaad, ou dois-je y renoncer? Et ils répondirent: Monte, et le Seigneur la livrera entre les mains du roi.

7 Mais Josaphat dit: N’y a-t-il plus ici aucun prophète de l’Éternel, par qui nous puissions le consulter?

8 Le roi d’Israël répondit à Josaphat: Il y a encore un homme par qui l’on pourrait consulter l’Éternel; mais je le hais, car il ne me prophétise rien de bon, il ne prophétise que du mal: c’est Michée, fils de Jimla. Et Josaphat dit: Que le roi ne parle pas ainsi!
