2 Chronicles 18:12-16

12Then the messenger who went to summon Micaiah spoke to him saying, “Behold, the words of the prophets are 1unanimously favorable to the king. So please let your word be like one of them, and speak favorably.” 13But Micaiah said, “As the Lord lives, 2whatever my God says, I will speak it.”

14When he came to the king, the king said to him, “Micaiah, should we go to battle against Ramoth-gilead, or should I refrain?” He said, “Go up and succeed, for they will be handed over to you!” 15Then the king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear that you will tell me nothing but the truth in the name of the Lord?” 16So he said, “I saw all Israel Scattered on the mountains, 3Like sheep that have no shepherd. And the Lord said, ‘These people have no master. Each of them is to return to his house in peace.’”
