2 Chronicles 18:22 In-Context

20 until one particular spirit approached the LORD and said, ‘I will persuade him.' ‘How?' the LORD asked.

21 ‘I will be a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets,' he said. The LORD agreed: ‘You will succeed in persuading him! Go ahead!'

22 So now, since the LORD placed a lying spirit in the mouths of these prophets of yours, it is the LORD who has pronounced disaster against you!"

23 Zedekiah, Chenaanah's son, approached Micaiah and slapped him on the cheek. "Just how did the LORD's spirit leave me to speak to you?" he asked.

24 Micaiah answered, "You will find out on the day you try to hide in an inner room."
