1 Kings 22:8
New King James Version
8 So the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “There is still one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may inquire of the Lord; but I hate him, because he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil.”
And Jehoshaphat said, “Let not the king say such things!”

And he who departs from evil makes himself a (A)prey.

Then the Lord saw it, and [a]it displeased Him
That there was no justice.

New King James Version
16 As for me, (A)I have not hurried away from being a shepherd who follows You,
Nor have I desired the woeful day;
You know what came out of my lips;
It was right there before You.
17 Do not be a terror to me;
(B)You are my hope in the day of doom.
18 (C)Let them be ashamed who persecute me,
But (D)do not let me be put to shame;
Let them be dismayed,
But do not let me be dismayed.
Bring on them the day of doom,
And (E)destroy[a] them with double destruction!
