New American Standard Bible
Chapter 22
19
And
Micaiah
said, 'Therefore, hear the word of the
Lord
. I saw the
Lord
sitting on His throne, and all the angels of heaven standing by Him on His right and on His left.
20
And the
Lord
said, ‘Who will entice Ahab to go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ And one
spirit
said this, while another said that.
21
Then a spirit came forward and stood before the
Lord
, and said, ‘I will entice him.’
22
And the
Lord
said to him, ‘How?’ And he said, ‘I will go out and be a deceiving spirit in the mouths of all his prophets.’ Then He said, ‘You shall entice
him,
and you will also prevail. Go and do so.’
23
Now then, behold, the
Lord
has put a deceiving spirit in the mouth of all these prophets of yours; and the
Lord
has declared disaster against you.'
King James Version
Chapter 22
19
And he said, Hear thou therefore the word of the
Lord
: I saw the
Lord
sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left.
20
And the
Lord
said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner.
21
And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the
Lord
, and said, I will persuade him.
22
And the
Lord
said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade him, and prevail also: go forth, and do so.
23
Now therefore, behold, the
Lord
hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the
Lord
hath spoken evil concerning thee.

Chapter 22
19
Then Micaiah said, "Therefore, hear the word of the
Lord
: I saw the
Lord
sitting on his throne, and the whole heavenly army was standing by him at his right hand and at his left hand.
20
And the
Lord
said, ‘Who will entice Ahab to march up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ So one was saying this and another was saying that.
21
"Then a spirit came forward, stood in the
Lord
’s presence, and said, ‘I will entice him.’
22
"The
Lord
asked him, ‘How?’ "He said, ‘I will go and become a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ "Then he said, ‘You will certainly entice him and prevail. Go and do that.’
23
"You see, the
Lord
has put a lying spirit into the mouth of all these prophets of yours, and the
Lord
has pronounced disaster against you."
New Living Translation
Chapter 22
19
Then Micaiah continued, 'Listen to what the
Lord
says! I saw the
Lord
sitting on his throne with all the armies of heaven around him, on his right and on his left.
20
And the
Lord
said, ‘Who can entice Ahab to go into battle against Ramoth-gilead so he can be killed?’ 'There were many suggestions,
21
and finally a spirit approached the
Lord
and said, ‘I can do it!’
22
‘How will you do this?’ the
Lord
asked. 'And the spirit replied, ‘I will go out and inspire all of Ahab’s prophets to speak lies.’ '‘You will succeed,’ said the
Lord
. ‘Go ahead and do it.’
23
So you see, the
Lord
has put a lying spirit in the mouths of all your prophets. For the
Lord
has pronounced your doom.'

Chapter 22
19
And Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of the
Lord
: I saw the
Lord
sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing beside him on his right hand and on his left;
20
and the
Lord
said, ‘Who will entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ And one said one thing, and another said another.
21
Then a spirit came forward and stood before the
Lord
, saying, ‘I will entice him.’
22
And the
Lord
said to him, ‘By what means?’ And he said, ‘I will go out, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ And he said, ‘You are to entice him, and you shall succeed; go out and do so.’
23
Now therefore behold, the
Lord
has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; the
Lord
has declared disaster for you."

Micaiah continued, "Therefore hear the word of the
Lord
: I saw the
Lord
sitting on his throne with all the multitudes of heaven standing around him on his right and on his left.
20
And the
Lord
said, ‘Who will entice Ahab into attacking Ramoth Gilead and going to his death there?’ "One suggested this, and another that.
21
Finally, a spirit came forward, stood before the
Lord
and said, ‘I will entice him.’
22
" ‘By what means?’ the
Lord
asked. " ‘I will go out and be a deceiving spirit in the mouths of all his prophets,’ he said. " ‘You will succeed in enticing him,’ said the
Lord
. ‘Go and do it.’
23
"So now the
Lord
has put a deceiving spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours. The
Lord
has decreed disaster for you."
