be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said go_out and=I_will_be spirit lying in/on/at/with,mouth all/each/any/every prophets,his and=he/it_said entice and=also succeed go and,do so )
Here the word “spirit” refers to the attitudes of the prophets and the words “the mouth” represents what they will say. Alternate translation: “cause all his prophets to speak lies”
22:19-23 Micaiah explained that God had allowed a lying spirit of prophecy to mislead Ahab to bring about his death. In his sovereignty, God used the counsel of Ahab’s false prophets to accomplish his will.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
