1 Kings 20
1 Ben Hadad the king of Syria gathered all his army together; and there were thirty-two kings with him, with horses and chariots. He went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
Nanontoñe i hene valobohò’ey amy zao t’i Benehadade mpanjaka’ i Arame, reketse mpanjaka telopolo-ro’amby naho soavala vaho sarete le nionjomb’eo nañarikatoke i Somerone hialia’e,
2 He sent messengers into the city to Ahab king of Israel and said to him, “Ben Hadad says,
le nampihitrife’e mb’amy Akabe mpanjaka’ Israele an-drova ao,
3 ‘Your silver and your gold are mine. Your wives also and your children, even the best, are mine.’”
ty nampanoa’e ty hoe: Hoe t’i Benehadade: Ahy o volafoty naho volamena’oo; o vali’oo vaho o ana’oo, ahy ze hene soa ama’e.
4 The king of Israel answered, “It is according to your saying, my lord, O king. I am yours, and all that I have.”
Nanoiñe aze ty mpanjaka’ Israele nanao ty hoe: Ie i sinaontsi’oy, ry talèko mpanjaka, azo iraho naho ze hene hanañako.
5 The messengers came again and said, “Ben Hadad says, ‘I sent indeed to you, saying, “You shall deliver me your silver, your gold, your wives, and your children;
Nibalike mb’eo indraike o ìrakeo, nanao ty hoe: Zao ty asa’ i Benehadade: Toe nahitriko ama’o ty hoe: Haseseo amako o volafoti’oo, naho o volamena’oo naho o vali’oo vaho o ana’oo;
6 but I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, and they will search your house and the houses of your servants. Whatever is pleasant in your eyes, they will put it in their hand, and take it away.”’”
fa hiraheko mb’ ama’o mb’eo hamaray ami’ty andro hoe zao o mpitorokoo, le ho kodebe’ iereo ty anjomba’o, naho o anjombam-pitoro’oo; le ze soa am-pihaino’o ty hapo’ iareo am-pità’e vaho hendese’e añe.
7 Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, “Please notice how this man seeks mischief; for he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I did not deny him.”
Aa le songa kinoi’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley o roandria’ i taneio, nanao ty hoe: Ehe, isaho naho mahaoniña te midoha raha indatiy; fa pinai’e amako o valikoo naho o anakoo naho o volafotikoo naho o volamenakoo, le tsy niraràko.
8 All the elders and all the people said to him, “Do not listen, and do not consent.”
Le hoe o androanavio naho ze hene ondaty ama’e, Ko mañaoñe aze, vaho ko miantoke.
9 Therefore he said to the messengers of Ben Hadad, “Tell my lord the king, ‘All that you sent for to your servant at the first I will do, but this thing I cannot do.’” The messengers departed and brought him back the message.
Aa le hoe re amy ìra’ i Benehadade rey: Saontsio ty hoe i talèko mpanjakay: Hene hanoeko o nañiraha’o amy mpitoro’oy am-baloha’eo; fe tsy hanoeko o raha zao. Aa le nienga o ìrakeo, ninday i entañe zay.
10 Ben Hadad sent to him, and said, “The gods do so to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria will be enough for handfuls for all the people who follow me.”
Le hoe ty nañiraha’ i Benehadade ama’e: Ee te hanoe’ o ‘ndrahareo amako ndra mandikoatse naho mahaatsam-pità’ ze hene ondaty mañorik’ ahikoo ty debo’ i Somerone.
11 The king of Israel answered, “Tell him, ‘Do not let him who puts on his armor brag like he who takes it off.’”
Le hoe ty natoi’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley: Taroño ama’e: Ee te tsy hirengevoke manahake ty mañafake fikalañe ty mañombe aze.
12 When Ben Hadad heard this message as he was drinking, he and the kings in the pavilions, he said to his servants, “Prepare to attack!” So they prepared to attack the city.
Ie nahajanjiñe izay t’i Benehadade, ie ninon-toake miharo amy mpanjaka rey an-kibohotse ao, le hoe re amo mpitoro’eo, Midadaña! Le nijadoñe niatreatre i rovay iereo.
13 Behold, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel, and said, “The LORD says, ‘Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I will deliver it into your hand today. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”
Niheo amy Akabe mpanjaka amy zao ty mpitoky, nanao ty hoe: Hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà, Fa niisa’o hao o valobohòke miheneheneo? Ingo, hatoloko am-pità’o te anito, soa te ho fohi’o te Izaho Iehovà.
14 Ahab said, “By whom?” He said, “The LORD says, ‘By the young men of the princes of the provinces.’” Then he said, “Who shall begin the battle?” He answered, “You.”
Le hoe t’i Akabe: Añama’ ia? le hoe re: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, o ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo. Le hoe re: Ia ty hamototse i hotakotakey: le hoe ty natoi’e: Ihe.
15 Then he mustered the young men of the princes of the provinces, and they were two hundred and thirty-two. After them, he mustered all the people, even all the children of Israel, being seven thousand.
Aa le tinendre’e ty ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo: roanjato-tsi-telopolo-ro’amby iereo; ie amy zao tinendre’e ka o fonga ondatio, ze hene ana’ Israele: fito-arivo.
16 They went out at noon. But Ben Hadad was drinking himself drunk in the pavilions, he and the kings, the thirty-two kings who helped him.
Niavotse an-tsingilingilieñe iereo. Fe ninoñe an-kibohotse ao t’i Benehadade himamoa’e, ie naho o mpanjakao, i mpanjaka telopolo-ro’ amby mpañolotse aze rey.
17 The young men of the princes of the provinces went out first; and Ben Hadad sent out, and they told him, saying, “Men are coming out from Samaria.”
Niavotse mb’eo valoha’e i ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo rey; aa le nañirake t’i Benehadade, le nitaliliañe ty hoe: Ey ondaty miakatse i Someroneo.
18 He said, “If they have come out for peace, take them alive; or if they have come out for war, take them alive.”
Le hoe re, He niakatse an-kanintsiñe iereo, endeso veloñe; ke niakatse hifandrapake, endeso veloñe.
19 So these went out of the city, the young men of the princes of the provinces, and the army which followed them.
Aa le niavotse i rovay iereo, i ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo rey naho nañorike iareo o lahindefoñeo.
20 They each killed his man. The Syrians fled, and Israel pursued them. Ben Hadad the king of Syria escaped on a horse with horsemen.
Songa zinevo’ iareo ty ondati’e; vaho nitriban-day o nte-Arameo, le nihoridañe’ Israele; nipoliotse an-tsoavala reke-piningi-tsoavala t’i Benehadade mpanjaka’ i Arame.
21 The king of Israel went out and struck the horses and chariots, and killed the Syrians with a great slaughter.
Niavotse amy zao i mpanjaka’ Israeley le zinama’e o soavala-aman-tsareteo vaho zinevo’e o nte-Arameo am-pizamanam-bey.
22 The prophet came near to the king of Israel and said to him, “Go, strengthen yourself, and plan what you must do, for at the return of the year, the king of Syria will come up against you.”
Nimb’amy mpanjaka’ Israeley i mpitokiy, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Akia, mihaozara, le tsikarato naho hotsohotso o hanoe’oo; amy te hionjo-mb’etoa hiatreatre azo ty mpanjaka’ i Arame ami’ty fibalihan-taoñe.
23 The servants of the king of Syria said to him, “Their god is a god of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we. But let’s fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than they.
Fa nanao ty hoe amy mpanjaka’ i Aramey o mpitoro’eo: Andrianañahare’ o haboañeo t’i Andrianañahare’ iareo; aa le naozatse te aman-tika iereo; antao arè hialy ama’e amontoñe añe; fa toe haozatse te am’ iereo tika.
24 Do this thing: take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put captains in their place.
Le ano zao: Songa asitaho an-toe’e o mpanjakao vaho solò mpifeleke ty an-toe’ iareo;
25 Muster an army like the army that you have lost, horse for horse and chariot for chariot. We will fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than they are.” He listened to their voice and did so.
mamolilia valobohòke manahake i valobohòke nimotso ama’oy, soavala hasolo soavala, sarete hasolo sarete; hifandrapak’ am’ iereo amontoñe ao tika vaho toe ho fatratse te ama’e. Hinao’e ty feo’ iareo le nanoe’e.
26 At the return of the year, Ben Hadad mustered the Syrians and went up to Aphek to fight against Israel.
Aa ie nihereñe ty taoñe le natonto’ i Benehadade o nte-Arameo, vaho nionjomb’e Afeke mb’eo hialy am’ Israele.
27 The children of Israel were mustered and given provisions, and went against them. The children of Israel encamped before them like two little flocks of young goats, but the Syrians filled the country.
Tinendre amy zao o ana’ Israeleo naho nivatieñe vaho niavotse niatrek’ ama’e; le nitobe aolo’ iereo o ana’ Israeleo hoe mpirai-liam-bik’ ose roe kedekedeke, ie nañatseke i taney o nte-Arameo.
28 A man of God came near and spoke to the king of Israel, and said, “The LORD says, ‘Because the Syrians have said, “The LORD is a god of the hills, but he is not a god of the valleys,” therefore I will deliver all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am the LORD.’”
Nitotoke mb’eo amy zao ty ‘ndatin’ Añahare ninday tsara amy mpanjaka’ Israeley, ami’ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Kanao nanao ty hoe o nte-Arameo: Andrianañahare’ o haboañeo t’Iehovà, fa tsy Andrianañahare’ o vavataneo; le fonga hatoloko am-pità’o i valobohòke bey heneheney vaho ho fohi’o te Izaho Iehovà.
29 They encamped opposite each other for seven days. Then on the seventh day the battle was joined; and the children of Israel killed one hundred thousand footmen of the Syrians in one day.
Aa le nitobe nifañatreke fito andro iereo. Ie amy andro faha-fitoy le nionjoñe ty hotakotake; vaho zinevo’ o ana’ Israeleo ami’ty andro raike ty rai-hetse amo nte-Arame am-pandiao.
30 But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and the wall fell on twenty-seven thousand men who were left. Ben Hadad fled and came into the city, into an inner room.
Le nitriban-day mb’e Afeke añe o ila’eo, mb’ an-drova ao; fe nikorovok’ am’ ondaty ro’ ale-tsi-fito-arivo sehanga’eo i kijoliy. Aa le nipolititse mb’ amy rovay t’i Benehadade, ami’ty efe’e am-po’e ao.
31 His servants said to him, “See now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings. Please let us put sackcloth on our bodies and ropes on our heads, and go out to the king of Israel. Maybe he will save your life.”
Le hoe o mpitoro’eo ama’e: Mahaoniña, fa tsinano’ay te mpanjaka mpitretrè o mpanjakan’ anjomba’ Israeleo; antao arè, mihalaly ama’o te hidian-gony am-bania tika naho hanampe vahotse añ’ambonen-tika vaho hiavotse mb’ amy mpanjaka’ Israeley mb’eo; he havotso’e ty fiai’o.
32 So they put sackcloth on their bodies and ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, “Your servant Ben Hadad says, ‘Please let me live.’” He said, “Is he still alive? He is my brother.”
Aa le nisikin-gony am-bania iereo naho nanampe vahotse añ’ambone eo, vaho niavotse mb’amy mpanjaka’ Israeley mb’eo nanao ty hoe: Manao ty hoe ama’o i mpitoro’o Benehadadey: Miambane ama’o: angao ho velon-draho. Le hoe re: Toe mbe veloñe hao re? Rahalahiko ‘nio.
33 Now the men observed diligently and hurried to take this phrase; and they said, “Your brother Ben Hadad.” Then he said, “Go, bring him.” Then Ben Hadad came out to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.
Aa le rinambe’ indaty rey ho viloñe, ie tsinepak’ am-palie’e i saontsy zay vaho nanao ty hoe: I rahalahi’o Benehadadey ‘nio. Le hoe re: Akia hitrifo. Aa le niakatse mb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Benehadade naho najò’e an-tsarete’e ao,
34 Ben Hadad said to him, “The cities which my father took from your father I will restore. You shall make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria.” “I”, said Ahab, “will let you go with this covenant.” So he made a covenant with him and let him go.
vaho hoe t’i Benehadade ama’e: Hampoliko o rova rinamben-draeko aman-drae’oo naho hamboare’o dokany e Damesèk’ ao manahake o namboaren-draeko e Someroneo. Izaho ka, hoe t’i Akabe, havotsoko irehe amy fañina zay. Aa le nifañina’e vaho navotso’e.
35 A certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow by the LORD’s word, “Please strike me!” The man refused to strike him.
Teo amy zao t’indaty, ana-dahi’ o mpitokio, nisaontsy an-drañetse ty amy nitsara’ Iehovày, ty hoe: Ehe, lafao iraho. Fe tsy nimete handafa aze indatiy.
36 Then he said to him, “Because you have not obeyed the LORD’s voice, behold, as soon as you have departed from me, a lion will kill you.” As soon as he had departed from him, a lion found him and killed him.
Le hoe re tama’e, Kanao tsy nihaoñe’o ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà, Inao! vata’e mieng’ ahy irehe le ho zevoñe’ ty liona. Aa le vata’e niavotse re, tendrek’ aze ty liona nañe-doza ama’e.
37 Then he found another man, and said, “Please strike me.” The man struck him and wounded him.
Nanjo ondaty indraike re, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Ehe, Lafao iraho. Aa le linafa’ indatiy, finofo’e vaho nahafere aze.
38 So the prophet departed and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with his headband over his eyes.
Le nienga mb’eo i mpitokiy, nandiñe i mpanjakay añ’olon-dalañe eo, ie nihonohono am-bandy ambonem-pihaino’e.
39 As the king passed by, he cried to the king, and he said, “Your servant went out into the middle of the battle; and behold, a man came over and brought a man to me, and said, ‘Guard this man! If by any means he is missing, then your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.’
Aa ie niary eo i mpanjakay le kinanji’e i mpanjakay, nanoe’e ty hoe: Naneñateña i hotakotakey ty mpitoro’o, le teo te nivike t’indaty nanese t’indaty amako nanao ty hoe: Tano ondatio; fa ndra ino ty maha-tsi-eo aze, le ty fiai’o ho a’ ty fiai’e, ke hondroha’o volafoty talenta raike.
40 As your servant was busy here and there, he was gone.” The king of Israel said to him, “So shall your judgment be. You yourself have decided it.”
Aa ie nitoloñe atoy naho aroy ty mpitoro’o, le nimosao re. Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele ama’e: Aa le izay ty izakañ’ azo; izay ty linaha’o.
41 He hurried, and took the headband away from his eyes; and the king of Israel recognized that he was one of the prophets.
Nafaha’e amy zao i bandy am-pihaino’eoy; le napota’ i mpanjakay t’ie mpiamo mpitokio.
42 He said to him, “The LORD says, ‘Because you have let go out of your hand the man whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore your life will take the place of his life, and your people take the place of his people.’”
Le hoe re tama’e: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà; Kanao navotso’o am-pità’o indaty tinendreko ho rotsaheñey, le ty fiai’o ty amy fiai’ey vaho ondati’oo ty am’ ondati’eo.
43 The king of Israel went to his house sullen and angry, and came to Samaria.
Aa le nimpoly mb’ añ’anjomba’e mb’eo i mpanjaka’ Israeley, nilonjetse naho nioremèñe t’ie nipoke e Somerone ao.
