1 Raja-raja 22:6

22:6 So the king of Israel assembled about four hundred prophets and asked them, “Should I attack Ramoth Gilead or not?” ⁴  They said, “Attack! The sovereign one ⁵  will hand it over to the king.”

[6:20]  ¹ tn Heb “twenty cubits” (this measurement occurs three times in this verse).

[6:20]  ² tn Heb “with plated gold” (or perhaps, “with pure gold”).

[6:20]  ³ tn Heb “he plated [the] altar of cedar.”

[22:6]  ⁴ tn Heb “Should I go against Ramoth Gilead for war or should I refrain?”

[22:6]  ⁵ tn Though Jehoshaphat requested an oracle from “the Lord” (יְהוָה, Yahweh), they stop short of actually using this name and substitute the title אֲדֹנָי (’adonai, “lord; master”). This ambiguity may explain in part Jehoshaphat’s hesitancy and caution (vv. 7-8). He seems to doubt that the four hundred are genuine prophets of the Lord.
