2 Chronicles 18:19-21

Living Bible

^19-20 “And the Lord said, ‘Who can get King Ahab to go to battle against Ramoth-gilead and be killed there?’

“There were many suggestions, but finally a spirit stepped forward before the Lord and said, ‘I can do it!’

“‘How?’ the Lord asked him.

²¹ “He replied, ‘I will be a lying spirit in the mouths of all of the king’s prophets!’

“‘It will work,’ the Lord said; ‘go and do it.’
