Ach'av came into his house sullen and angry because of the word which Navot the Yizre`eli had spoken to him; for he had said, I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers. He laid him down on his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.
The king of Yisra'el said to Yehoshafat, there is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Mikhayahu the son of Yimlah: but I hate him; for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. Yehoshafat said, *Don't let the king say so.*
Yet all this avails me nothing, so long as I see Mordekhai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.*
The foolishness of man subverts his way; his heart rages against the LORD.
