2 Chronicles 18:20-22
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
20 Then there came a spirit and stood before the Lord and said, I will entice him. The Lord said to him, By what means?
21 And he said, I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets. And the Lord said, You shall entice him and also succeed. Go forth and do so.
22 Now, you see, the Lord put a lying spirit in the mouths of your prophets; and the Lord has spoken evil concerning you.
