16. Then he said, I did see all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and the LORD said,
17. And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good unto me, but evil?
18. Again he said, Therefore hear the word of the LORD; I saw the LORD sitting upon his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.
19. And the LORD said,
20. Then there came out a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will entice him. And the LORD said unto him,
21. And he said, I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the LORD said,
22. Now therefore, behold, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets, and the LORD has spoken evil against you.
