¹³ If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of Jehovah, to do either good or bad of mine own mind; what Jehovah speaketh, that will I speak?

¹⁴ And Micaiah said, As Jehovah liveth, what Jehovah saith unto me, that will I speak.

¹³ And Micaiah said, As Jehovah liveth, what my God saith, that will I speak.

²⁹ But Peter and the apostles answered and said, We must obey God rather than men.
