20
There came forth a spirit, and stood before Yahweh, and said, I will entice him. Yahweh said to him, 'How?'
21
He said, 'I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' He said, 'You shall entice him, and shall prevail also: go forth, and do so.'
22
Now therefore, behold, Yahweh has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets; and Yahweh has spoken evil concerning you.
23
Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of Yahweh from me to speak to you?
24
Micaiah said, Behold, you shall see on that day, when you shall go into an inner chamber to hide yourself.
