15 Et le roi lui dit: Combien de fois me faudra-t-il te faire jurer de ne me dire que la vérité au nom de l’Éternel?

16 Michée répondit: Je vois tout Israël dispersé sur les montagnes, comme des brebis qui n’ont point de berger; et l’Éternel dit: Ces gens n’ont point de maître, que chacun retourne en paix dans sa maison!

17 Le roi d’Israël dit à Josaphat: Ne te l’ai-je pas dit? Il ne prophétise sur moi rien de bon, il ne prophétise que du mal.

18 Et Michée dit: Écoutez donc la parole de l’Éternel! J’ai vu l’Éternel assis sur son trône, et toute l’armée des cieux se tenant à sa droite et à sa gauche.

19 Et l’Éternel dit: Qui séduira Achab, roi d’Israël, pour qu’il monte à Ramoth en Galaad et qu’il y périsse? Ils répondirent l’un d’une manière, l’autre d’une autre.
