And he said, I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said, Thou shalt entice him, and thou shalt also prevail: go out, and do even so.

KJV

At ille respondit : Egrediar, et ero spiritus mendax in ore omnium prophetarum ejus. Dixitque Dominus : Decipies, et prævalebis : egredere, et fac ita.

Vulgate

καὶ εἶπεν Ἐξελεύσομαι καὶ ἔσομαι πνεῦμα ψευδὲς ἐν στόματι πάντων τῶν προφητῶν αὐτοῦ. καὶ εἶπεν Ἀπατήσεις, δυνήσῃ· ἔξελθε καὶ ποίησον οὕτως.

LXX

And he said, I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt entice him, and shalt prevail also: go forth, and do so.
