2 Chronicles 18:5 in Context — 2 Chronicles 18

3 Achab, roi d’Israël, dit à Josaphat, roi de Juda: Veux-tu venir avec moi à Ramoth en Galaad? Josaphat lui répondit: Moi comme toi, et mon peuple comme ton peuple, nous irons l’attaquer avec toi.

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

5 Le roi d’Israël assembla les prophètes, au nombre de quatre cents, et leur dit: Irons-nous attaquer Ramoth en Galaad, ou dois-je y renoncer? Et ils répondirent: Monte, et Dieu la livrera entre les mains du roi.

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

7 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 jamais que du mal: c’est Michée, fils de Jimla. Et Josaphat dit: Que le roi ne parle pas ainsi!
