But the king said to him, 'How many times shall I adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of the LORD?' — Ahab perceived Micaiah's sarcasm and pressed for truth (וְכַמָּה פְעָמִים אֲנִי־מַשְׁבִּיעַךָ שֶׁלֹּא־תְדַבֵּר־אֵלַי אֶלָּא אֱמֶת בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה). The king sensed but resisted the genuine word.
