2 CHRONICLES 18:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made him horns of iron, and said, Thus saith the Lord, With these thou shalt push Syria until they be consumed.”
And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made horns of iron, and said, 'Thus says the LORD, "With these you shall push the Arameans until they are destroyed"' — One prophet (צִדְקִיָּהוּ בֶן־כְּנַעֲנָה) performed symbolic prophecy: iron horns (קַרְנֵי־בַרְזֶל) representing military victory (בִּקְרָנַיִם־אֵלֶּה תִּנְגַּח־אֶת־אֲרַם עַד־כַּלּוֹתָם). The dramatic gesture was manipulation, not genuine prophecy.
