1 Jehoshaphat was wealthy and honorable and became Ahab's in-law. 2 A few years later he went to visit Ahab in Samaria. Ahab slaughtered many sheep and cattle for a banquet in honor of Jehoshaphat and the people who were with him. And Ahab persuaded Jehoshaphat to attack Ramoth in Gilead with him. 3 King Ahab of Israel asked King Jehoshaphat of Judah, |Will you go with me to Ramoth in Gilead?| Jehoshaphat told the king of Israel, |I will do what you do. My troops will do what your troops do. [We will join] your troops in battle.| 2 Chronicles 18:1-3, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
