2 CHRONICLES 18:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 1 0

“Then he said, I did see all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master; let them return therefore every man to his house in peace.”

And he said, 'I saw all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep without a shepherd; and the LORD said, "These have no master; let each return to his home in peace"' — Micaiah's true vision (וַיֹּאמֶר רָאִיתִי אֶת־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל נָפֻצִים עַל־הֶהָרִים כַּצֹּאן אֵין־לָהֶם רֹעֶה וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה לֹא־אֲדֹנִים לָאֵלֶּה יָשׁוּבוּ אִישׁ לְבֵיתוֹ בְּשָׁלוֹם): Israel scattered and leaderless, with God saying they should return home in peace. The vision predicted military disaster—Ahab's death would leave Israel without a shepherd.
