²² Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.

²³ Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the Lord from me to speak unto thee?

¹⁵ Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up:

⁴ For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

¹¹ Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

¹² Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.

17 My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me.

⁴ To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee?

³⁹ If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life:

⁸ But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
