1 Kings 22:15

KJV

Venit itaque ad regem, et ait illi rex : Michæa, ire debemus in Ramoth Galaad ad præliandum, an cessare ? Cui ille respondit : Ascende, et vade prospere, et tradet eam Dominus in manus regis.

Vulgate

καὶ ἦλθεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς Μειχαία, εἰ ἀναβῶ εἰς Ῥεμμὰθ Γαλαὰδ εἰς πόλεμον ἢ ἐπίσχω; καὶ εἶπεν Ἀνάβαινε, καὶ εὐοδώσει Κύριος εἰς χεῖρα τοῦ βασιλέως.

LXX
