Ahab dies at Ramoth-gilead
Ignoring the prophet Micaiah's warning, Ahab went to war at Ramoth-gilead in disguise; a random arrow struck him between the joints of his armor.
A certain man drew his bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of his chariot, “Turn around, and carry me out of the battle, for I am severely wounded.”
1 Kings 22:34 (World English Bible)
Four hundred court prophets promised Ahab victory. King Jehoshaphat of Judah asked for a prophet of Yahweh, and Micaiah alone told the truth, for which he was thrown in prison. Ahab's disguise couldn't hide him from God. His blood was washed from his chariot at the pool of Samaria, where dogs licked it, as Elijah had said.
