2 Chronicles 18:12-14
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
12 And the messenger who went to summon Micai′ah said to him, “Behold, the words of the prophets[a] with one accord are favorable to the king; let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak favorably.” 13 But Micai′ah said, “As the Lord lives, what my God says, that I will speak.” 14 And when he had come to the king, the king said to him, “Micai′ah, shall we go to Ra′moth-gil′ead to battle, or shall I forbear?” And he answered, “Go up and triumph; they will be given into your hand.”

- 18.12 prophets: Jeremiah says that false prophets usually proclaim what their hearers want them to say: “every one deals falsely . . . saying, ‘Peace, peace,’ when there is no peace” (Jer 6.13-14). It will be noticed that the Chronicler omits a large part of 2 Kings which is concerned with the northern kingdom. Elijah, for example, is mentioned only once, in 21.12.
