1 Jehoshaphat hi haona le jabolna'a bulhing setnin ananeitan ahi. Amahin numei kilah tona lamma Ahab to kisam kaina ananei lhonnin ahi.
Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honour in abundance; and he allied himself with Ahab.
2 Kum phabep jouhin Samaria Ahab villin aga che suhin ahileh, Ahab in bongchal leh kelngoi athat nin ama leh ahin kilhon piho nehding chun nengtah in anagon peh in; chuleh Ramoth Gilead langa chetou dingin ana tem in ahi.
After some years, he went down to Ahab to Samaria. Ahab killed sheep and cattle for him in abundance, and for the people who were with him, and moved him to go up with him to Ramoth Gilead.
3 Ahab lengpa chun Jehoshaphat jah’a chun Ramoth Gilead toh kidouna dinga hi neihung kitho pi ding ham anatin ahi. Jehoshaphat chun adonbut in, “Keile nang thakhat ihin, keimite jong nang mite ahin hiche galla chun nahung kithopi nange,” ati.
Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, “Will you go with me to Ramoth Gilead?” He answered him, “I am as you are, and my people as your people. We will be with you in the war.”
4 Chujongleh Jehoshaphat chun Israel lengpa komma chun aseijin, “Tunin Pathenin epi asei jem veohite ati”
Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “Please enquire first for the LORD’s word.”
5 Hichun Israel lengpan themgao jali akou khommin amaho chu adongin, “Keiho hi Ramoth – Gilead satna galkon na kachediu ham ahilouleh kacheda diuham?” ati. Hichun amaho chun, “Chetou jengun amaho chu Pathen in lengpa nangkhut a ahin pehdoh ding ahi,” atiuve.
Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, “Shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I forbear?” They said, “Go up, for God will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
6 Ahinlah Jehoshaphat in, “Tua hi eihon idoh theiju themgao adang umlou hitam?” ati.
But Jehoshaphat said, “Isn’t there here a prophet of the LORD besides, that we may enquire of him?”
7 Israel lengpa chun Jehoshaphat kom’a, “Eihon idoh theiju Pakai themgao khatvang aumme, ahinlah keiman amahi kavetnom poi; ajeh chu amahin keidinga thilpha aseingai jipon, thilphalou ngen eisei peh ji ahi. Amachu Imla chapa Micaiah kitipa chu ahi. Hichun Jehoshaphat in, “Lengpa hiti chun thu seihih in,” ati.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “There is yet one man by whom we may enquire of the LORD; but I hate him, for he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil. He is Micaiah the son of Imla.” Jehoshaphat said, “Don’t let the king say so.”
8 Hiche phat chun Israel lengpan a sepai lamkai khat chu akouvin, Imla chapa Micaiah chu gangtah in gapuijin ati.
Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, “Get Micaiah the son of Imla quickly.”

Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah each sat on his throne, arrayed in their robes, and they were sitting in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
10 Zedekiah chun thih alan saki limin asemmin, Pakaiyin hitin aseije, “Nangman hiche saki hi namanna Syria mite chu nasuhmang ding ahi,” ati.
Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made himself horns of iron and said, “The LORD says, ‘With these you shall push the Syrians, until they are consumed.’”
11 Hitichun themgao ho jouse chun gaothu aseisoh keijun, Ramoth Gilead jonin chetouvun nalolhin diu ahi, ajeh chu Pakaiyin amaho chu lengpa khutna ahin pehlut ding ahi atiuve
All the prophets prophesied so, saying, “Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper; for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
12 Micaiah kouva kisol pachun akom’a hitin aseijin, “Ven, themgao ho jouse chun lengpan gal ajo dingin aseisoh keijun ahi, nangman jong hitimachun seile chun phading ahi,” atipeh e.
The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, “Behold, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth. Let your word therefore, please be like one of theirs, and speak good.”
13 Hichu Micaiah in adonbut in, “Hingjing Pakai minna kasei ahi, ka Pathen in asei seibou kaseiding ahi,” ati.

When he had come to the king, the king said to him, “Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I forbear?” He said, “Go up, and prosper. They shall be delivered into your hand.”
15 Hichun lengpan hitin aseije, “Micaiah nangkom mahi ijatvei Pakai minnin thudih seijin tia kangeh ding nahim?” atin ahi.
The king said to him, “How many times shall I adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the LORD’s name?”

He said, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. The LORD said, ‘These have no master. Let them each return to his house in peace.’”
17 Israel lengpa chun Jehoshaphat komma hitin aseije, “Amahin kakomma thilpha asei khapon, thilse jeng aseije kati hilouham?” atin ahi.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Didn’t I tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?”
18 Hichun Micaiah in aseijin Pakaiyin hitin aseije, “Ngaijun Pakai chu alal touna – a atouvin van mite chu ajet aveijah adingun ahi.”
Micaiah said, “Therefore hear the LORD’s word: I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.
19 “Pakai chun hitin aseijin, “Koipenin Ahab komma nacheova Ramoth – Gilead nakhu aga lhuhkam nadinga naga seipeh diu ham? Hichun vantil khatchun hitin aseijin achom khat nin thilchom aseijin ahi.
The LORD said, ‘Who will entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?’ One spoke saying in this way, and another saying in that way.
20 Hichun lhagao khat nin Pakai angsung ahin nailut nin keima chengtin galhem lhange ati, Pakaiyin i-nagalo ding ham? ati.
A spirit came out, stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’ “The LORD said to him, ‘How?’
21 “Hichun aman keima chengting Ahab themgao jouse chu jou gaseisah ingkate ati, Pakaiyin chenlang hiti chun gabollin lang hung lolhing tan,” ati.
“He said, ‘I will go, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ “He said, ‘You will entice him, and will prevail also. Go and do so.’
22 Hijeh chun veovin! “Pakaiyin a themgao jouse chu jou aseisah ahin, Pakaiyin naman thah nadinga asei sah ahibouve,” ati.
“Now therefore, behold, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets; and the LORD has spoken evil concerning you.”
23 Hichun Chenaanah chapa Zedekiah chun anailut nin angeiphe abeh pih in, itih a chu Pakai lhagaovin keima eidalhah a nangkomma thu asei ham?” ati.
Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, “Which way did the LORD’s Spirit go from me to speak to you?”
24 Micaiah chun adonbut in “Tomlam a nalhailut’a naga kisel teng hetannate!” atipehin ahi.
Micaiah said, “Behold, you shall see on that day, when you go into an inner room to hide yourself.”
25 Hichun Israel lengpan a sepai lamkai komma chun, man inlang khopi vaihompa leh leng chapa Joash kommah ga pelut tan ati.
The king of Israel said, “Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king’s son;
26 Amani komma chun songkulla akoilhon ding keima damsella kahung kilekit kahsen anehding changlhah themkhat toh twi themkhat anapeo vin ati.
and say, ‘The king says, “Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace.”’”
27 Micaiah in asamjah jengin, nangma nahung kile poupouleh Pathen in keikomma thu aseilou hiding ahi! ati. “Chuleh aman Avella umho kommachun hiche kasei hi jasoh keijun,” ati.
Micaiah said, “If you return at all in peace, the LORD has not spoken by me.” He said, “Listen, you people, all of you!”
28 Hiche jouchun Israel lengpan Ahab leh Judah lengpa Jehoshaphat chu, Ramoth – Gilead khopi chu abulu dingin akondoh lhontai.
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
29 Ahab chun Jehoshaphat kommah hitin aseijin, “Galmunna ilut tengleh nangin lengvon kivon nin lang, ken vonchom kivon inge,” ati. Hichun Israel lengpa chun vonchom aki vonnin gal munnah aluttan ahi.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but you put on your robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went into the battle.
30 Syria lengpa chun sakol kangchunga tou gallam kai hochu Israel lengpa bou atup diuvin thu apen ahi.
Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying, “Don’t fight with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.”
31 Hijeh chun Jehoshaphat lengpa chu amu phatnun Israel lengpa ahisah sohkeijun, anokhum tauvin ahi. Ahinlah Jehoshaphat chu apeng jah in ahileh, Pakaiyin ahuhdoh in ama nokhumho chu adalhah sah tan ahi.
When the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, they said, “It is the king of Israel!” Therefore they turned around to fight against him. But Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.
32 Sakol kangchunga tou lamkai hochun ama chu Israel lengpa ahilou ahedoh tauvin adalha tauve.
When the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
33 Ahinlah Syria sepai khatnin thalchang khatchu agah donkapmin ahileh, Israel lengpa galvon kikah – a chun akaplut khatan ahi, hichun asakol kangtalai tolpa komma chun kakitong khatai galmunna kon in neitol doh tan atin ahi.
A certain man drew his bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armour. Therefore he said to the driver of the chariot, “Turn around and carry me out of the battle, for I am severely wounded.”
34 Hiche ni chun galkisat chu akhoh cheh jengin, Israel lengpa vangchu sakol kangtalai chunga aoplhatan, nilhah lang geijin Syria te lang chu angan nilhum kon in athitai.
The battle increased that day. However, the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the evening; and at about sunset, he died.
