The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Tanach: 1_Kings 22: 4 And he said unto Jehoshaphat: 'Wilt thou go with me to battle to Ramoth-gilead?' And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel: 'I am as thou art, my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses.'
1_Kings 22: 5 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel: 'Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD today.'
1_Kings 22: 6 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said unto them: 'Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear?' And they said: 'Go up; for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.'
1_Kings 22: 7 But Jehoshaphat said: 'Is there not here besides a prophet of the LORD, that we might inquire of him?'
1_Kings 22: 8 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat: 'There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him; for he doth not prophesy good concerning me, but evil.' And Jehoshaphat said: 'Let not the king say so.'
1_Kings 22: 9 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said: 'Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imlah.'
1_Kings 22: 10 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah sat each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, in a threshing-floor, at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
