1 Kings 22:16-18

International Children’s Bible

¹⁶ But Ahab said to Micaiah, “Tell me only the truth in the name of the Lord. How many times do I have to tell you this?”

¹⁷ So Micaiah answered, “I saw the army of Israel. They were scattered over the hills like sheep without a shepherd. The Lord said, ‘They have no leader. They should go home and not fight.’”

¹⁸ Then Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I told you! This prophet never says anything good about me. He only says bad things about me.”
