And he answered, I will goe vp: for I am, as thou art, my people, as thy people, and mine horses as thine horses. 8 Then said he, What way shall we goe vp? And he answered, The way of the wildernesse of Edom. 9 So went the King of Israel & the king of Iudah, and the King of Edom, and when they had compassed the way seuen dayes, they had no water for the hoste, nor for the cattell that followed them. 10 Therefore the King of Israel sayde, Alas, that the Lord hath called these three Kings, to giue them into the hand of Moab. 11 But Iehoshaphat saide, Is there not here a Prophet of the Lorde, that we may inquire of the Lorde by him?
