Try a formula like the following:
=OFFSET(A2,MATCH(234,A2:A100,0),1,1,1)
where 234 is the value to look up in cells A2:A100. Change as needed.
it will return #N/A if 234 is not found in A2;A100.

I'm trying to figure out how to retrieve a value 1 row below the value that
would normally be retrieved with a regular vlookup. As an example below,
using 1234 as my lookup value, column A-B as the table array, column index
=2, and range lookup ="false" I'd like to return the value "5" instead of
"2". Can this be done somehow through an formula?
