2 Chronicles 25:16
And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Art thou made of the king’s counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
KJV
Cumque hæc ille loqueretur, respondit ei : Num consiliarius regis es ? quiesce, ne interficiam te. Discedensque propheta : Scio, inquit, quod cogitaverit Deus occidere te quia fecisti hoc malum, et insuper non acquievisti consilio meo.
Vulgate
καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ λαλῆσαι αὐτῷ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Μὴ σύμβουλον τοῦ βασιλέως δέδωκά σε; πρόσεχε μὴ μαστιγωθῇς. καὶ ἐσιώπησεν ὁ προφήτης, καὶ εἶπεν ὅτι Γινώσκω ὅτι ἐβούλετο ἐπὶ σοὶ τοῦ καταφθεῖραί σε, ὅτι ἐποίησας τοῦτο καὶ οὐκ ἐπήκουσας τῆς συμβουλίας μου.
LXX
And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Have we made thee of the king’s counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
