4But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, "First seek the counsel of the Lord ."
1 Now Jehoshaphat had great wealth and honor, and he allied himself with Ahab by marriage.
2 Some years later he went down to visit Ahab in Samaria. Ahab slaughtered many sheep and cattle for him and the people with him and urged him to attack Ramoth Gilead.
3 Ahab king of Israel asked Jehoshaphat king of Judah, "Will you go with me against Ramoth Gilead?" Jehoshaphat replied, "I am as you are, and my people as your people; we will join you in the war."
4 But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, "First seek the counsel of the Lord ."
5 So the king of Israel brought together the prophets-four hundred men-and asked them, "Shall we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or shall I refrain?" "Go," they answered, "for God will give it into the king's hand."
6 But Jehoshaphat asked, "Is there not a prophet of the Lord here whom we can inquire of?"

18:4And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, at present the word of the Lord.
18:4And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire first, I pray thee, for the word of Jehovah.
18:4And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, this day of the word of Jehovah.
18:4And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel; Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD today.
18:4And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray you, at the word of the LORD to day.
18:4And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to-day.
18:4Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, |Please inquire first for the word of Yahweh.|
18:4And Jehoshaphat saith unto the king of Israel, 'Seek, I pray thee, this day, the word of Jehovah.'
