KJV - 1 Kings 22:8

And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may enquire of the LORD: but I hate him; for he doth not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

The king of Israel told Jehoshaphat about a man named Micaiah, who could ask God for guidance. But the king didn't like him because he never said good things about the king. Jehoshaphat asked the king not to speak negatively about Micaiah.
