< 1 Kings 22 >

1 Then three years passed without war between Aram and Israel.
Le lia’e tsy nialy telo taoñe ty Arame naho Israele.
2 However, in the third year, Jehoshaphat king of Judah went down to visit the king of Israel,
Ie amy taom-paha-teloy, le nizotso mb’amy mpanjaka’ Israeley mb’eo t’Ieho­safate mpan­jaka’ Iehoda.
3 who said to his servants, “Do you not know that Ramoth-gilead is ours, but we have failed to take it from the hand of the king of Aram?”
Aa hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele amo mpitoro’eo: Fohi’ areo hao te antika t’i Ramote-Gilade? fe mbe eo avao tika tsy nandrambe aze am-pitam-panjaka’ i Arame.
4 So he asked Jehoshaphat, “Will you go with me to fight against Ramoth-gilead?” Jehoshaphat answered the king of Israel, “I am like you, my people are your people, and my horses are your horses.”
Le hoe re am’ Iehosafate: Hitraok’ amako hao irehe hifandrapake e Ramote-Gilade añe? le hoe t’Iehosafate amy mpanjaka’ Israeley: Ama’o iraho manahake ty vata’o, ondatikoo hoe ondati’o, o soavalakoo hoe soavala’o.
5 But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, “Please inquire first for the word of the LORD.”
Le hoe t’Iehosafate amy mpanjaka’ Israeley: Ehe, paiao hey ty tsara’ Iehovà.
6 So the king of Israel assembled the prophets, about four hundred men, and asked them, “Should I go to war against Ramoth-gilead, or should I refrain?” “Go up,” they replied, “and the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
Aa le natonto’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley o mpitokio, va’e ondaty efa-jato, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Homb’ e Ramote-Gilade mb’eo hao iraho hifañotakotake, he hifoneñe? Le hoe iereo: Miavota; fa hitolora’ i Talè am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
7 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there not still a prophet of the LORD here of whom we can inquire?”
Aa hoe t’Iehosafate: Tsy amam-pitoki’ Iehovà hao ty atoy hañontanean-tika?
8 The king of Israel answered, “There is still one man who can ask the LORD, but I hate him because he never prophesies anything good for me, but only bad. He is Micaiah son of Imlah.” “The king should not say that!” Jehoshaphat replied.
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate: Mbe añe t’indaty raike hampañontanean-tika am’ Iehovà, i Mikaià ana’ Imlà; fe hejeko; amy te tsy soa ty fitokia’e amako fa raty. Le hoe t’Iehosafate: Ee te tsy hanao izay ty mpanjaka!
9 So the king of Israel called one of his officials and said, “Bring Micaiah son of Imlah at once.”
Aa le kinanji’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley ty mpifehe, nanao ty hoe: Hitrifo masika t’i Mikaià ana’ Imlà.
10 Dressed in royal attire, the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah were sitting on their thrones at the threshing floor by the entrance of the gate of Samaria, with all the prophets prophesying before them.
Ie amy zao songa niambesatse am-piambesa’e, nisarimbo an-toem-pamofohañe an-dalambeim-pimoaha’ i Somerone ey ty mpanjaka’ Israele naho Iosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda; le nitoky añatrefa’ iereo o mpitoky iabio.
11 Now Zedekiah son of Chenaanah had made for himself iron horns and declared, “This is what the LORD says: ‘With these you shall gore the Arameans until they are finished off.’”
Nandranjy tsifa viñe ho aze t’i Tsedekià ana’ i Kenaanà nanao ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Ho tombohe’o amo retiañe o nte-Arameo am-para’ te mongotse.
12 And all the prophets were prophesying the same, saying, “Go up to Ramoth-gilead and prosper, for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
Le nitoky hoe izay iaby o mpitokio, nanao ty hoe: Mionjona mb’e Ramote-Gilade mb’eo le miraoraòa; fa hatolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
13 Then the messenger who had gone to call Micaiah instructed him, “Behold now, with one accord the words of the prophets are favorable to the king. So please let your words be like theirs, and speak favorably.”
Nisaon­tsie’ i nampihitrifeñe amy Mikaià ty hoe: Inao: mikoike hasoa amy mpanjakay am-palie raike ty fisaontsi’ o mpitokio, aa, ee te hanahake ty fisaontsi’ ty raik’ am’ iereo o enta’oo, fa ty hasoa ty atao’o.
14 But Micaiah said, “As surely as the LORD lives, I will speak whatever the LORD tells me.”
Aa hoe t’i Mikaià: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, ze hafè’ Iehovà amako, izay ty ho taroñeko.
15 When Micaiah arrived, the king asked him, “Micaiah, should we go to war against Ramoth-gilead, or should we refrain?” “Go up and triumph,” Micaiah replied, “for the LORD will give it into the hand of the king.”
Ie pok’ amy mpanjakay eo, le hoe i mpanjakay ama’e: O Mikaià, hionjomb’ e Ramote-Gilade mb’eo hao tika, he hifoneñe? Le hoe re: Mionjona, mirao­raòa, fa hatolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
16 But the king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear not to tell me anything but the truth in the name of the LORD?”
Le hoe i mpanjakay ama’e: Im-pire hao t’ie hitolom-pamantoke azo ty tsy hisaontsy amako naho tsy ty hatò ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà?
17 So Micaiah declared: “I saw all Israel scattered on the hills like sheep without a shepherd. And the LORD said, ‘These people have no master; let each one return home in peace.’”
Le hoe re: Nitreako te hene niparaitak’ amo vohitseo t’Israele, manahak’ añondry tsy amam-piarake; aa le hoe t’Iehovà: Po-talè iereo; apoho songa himpoly mb’ an-kiboho’e mb’eo an-kanin­tsiñe.
18 Then the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not tell you that he never prophesies good for me, but only bad?”
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Ieho­safate: Aa vaho tsy vinolako ama’o hao te tsy ty soa ty hitokia’e ahy fa ty raty.
19 Micaiah continued, “Therefore hear the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right and on His left.
Le hoe re: Aa le janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà. Nitreako t’Iehovà niambesatse amy fiam­besa’ey naho nijohañe añ’ ila’e am-pità’e havana naho an-kavia’e i valobohòn-dikerañey.
20 And the LORD said, ‘Who will entice Ahab to march up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ And one suggested this, and another that.
Le hoe t’Iehovà: Ia ty hanigìke i Aka­be, hion­jona’e hikoro­voke e Ramote-gilade añe. Nanao hoe zao ty raike, naho hoe izay ty ila’e.
21 Then a spirit came forward, stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’ ‘By what means?’ asked the LORD.
Nionjomb’ eo amy zao ty fañahy nijohañe añatrefa’ Iehovà ey, nanao ty hoe: Izaho ty hanigìk’ aze. Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e: Ami’ty manao akore?
22 And he replied, ‘I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets.’ ‘You will surely entice him and prevail,’ said the LORD. ‘Go and do it.’
Le hoe re, Hionjomb’ eo iraho ho fañahim-bande am-palie’ o mpitoky iabio. Le hoe re: Ihe arè ty hanigik’ aze vaho ho tahieñe; akia, anò.
23 So you see, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours, and the LORD has pronounced disaster against you.”
Ie amy zao, mahaoniña te nampipoha’ Iehovà am-palie’ o hene mpitoky retoañe ty fañahin-drem­borake; fe ni­tsara hànkañe ama’o t’Iehovà.
24 Then Zedekiah son of Chenaanah went up, struck Micaiah in the face, and demanded, “Which way did the Spirit of the LORD go when He departed from me to speak with you?”
Le nañarine aze t’i Tsedekià ana’ i Kenaanà naho tinampifi’e am-pivimbi’e ty Mikaià vaho nanao ty hoe: Nimb’ aia i fañahi’ Iehovà niboak’ amako hampi­volañe azoy?
25 Micaiah replied, “You will soon see, on that day when you go and hide in an inner room.”
Le hoe t’i Mikaià: Mahafohina te ho isa’o ami’ty andro himoaha’o hietak’ an-traño añate’e ao.
26 And the king of Israel declared, “Take Micaiah and return him to Amon the governor of the city and to Joash the king’s son,
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele, Rambeso t’i Mikaià le aseseo amy Amone mpifelek’ i rovay naho am’ Ioase ana’ i mpanjakay;
27 and tell them that this is what the king says: ‘Put this man in prison and feed him only bread and water until I return safely.’”
le ano ty hoe: Hoe ty saontsi’ i mpanjakay: Agabeño ampandrohizañe ao t’indaty tia vaho fahano mofon-kasotriañe naho ranon-kaoreañe ampara’ te mimpoly an-kanin­tsin-draho.
28 But Micaiah replied, “If you ever return safely, the LORD has not spoken through me.” Then he added, “Take heed, all you people!”
Le hoe t’i Mikaià, Naho mimpoly an-kanintsin-drehe le tsy nitsara añamako t’Iehovà. Le hoe re: Mijanjiña ondatio; inahareo iaby.
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Aa le nionjomb’e Ramote-gilade mb’eo ty mpanjaka’ Israele naho Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
30 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and go into battle, but you wear your royal robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate: Hañonohono vatan-draho vaho himoak’ ankotakotak’ ao; fe ampiombeo o saro’oo. Le nañonohono ty mpanjaka’ Israele, t’ie nionjomb’ añ’ aly mb’eo.
31 Now the king of Aram had ordered his thirty-two chariot commanders, “Do not fight with anyone, small or great, except the king of Israel.”
Ie amy zao fa linili’ i mpanjaka’ i Aramey i mpifehen-tsarete’e telo-polo-ro’ amby rey ami’ty hoe: Ko mialy ami’ ty kede ndra ami’ ty bey, fa amy mpanjaka Israeley avao.
32 When the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they said, “Surely this is the king of Israel!” So they turned to fight against him, but Jehoshaphat cried out.
Aa ie nioni’ o mpife­hen-tsareteo t’Iehosafate, le nanao ty hoe: Inge ie! ty mpanjaka’ Israele, le hene nitolike hialy ama’e; vaho nikoike t’Iehosafate.
33 And when the chariot commanders saw that he was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
Aa ie nioni’ i mpifehen-tsarete rey t’ie tsy mpanjaka’ Israele, le nivio tsy nañoridañ’ aze ka.
34 However, a certain man drew his bow without taking special aim, and he struck the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. So the king said to his charioteer, “Turn around and take me out of the battle, for I am badly wounded!”
Le teo t’indaty nam­pibitso-pale tsy nahi’e, vaho trino­fa’e ty mpanjaka’ Israele añivo’ ty fikalañ’ ambane naho ty fikalañ’ araña’e ao; aa le hoe re amy mpinday sarete’ey: Ampitoliho ty fità’o, le akaro amy valobohòkey iraho, fa vata’e fere.
35 The battle raged throughout that day, and the king was propped up in his chariot facing the Arameans. And the blood from his wound ran out onto the floor of the chariot, and that evening he died.
Niindra avao ty aly amy andro zay, le nampiatoeñe amy sarete’ey am-piatrefañe o nte-Arameo i mpanjakay, le nihomake te hariva; nikararàke boak’ am-pere’e mb’an gorodo’ i saretey ty lio’e.
36 As the sun was setting, the cry rang out in the army: “Every man to his own city, and every man to his own land!”
Nipoñak’ amy zao ty koike niboele amy valobohòkey te tsofots’ àndro nanao ty hoe: Songa ondaty mb’ an-drova’e, fonga ondaty mb’ an-tane’e añe.
37 So the king died and was brought to Samaria, where they buried him.
Aa le nihomake i mpanjakay, vaho nendeseñe e Some­rone; le nalente’ iereo e Somerone ao i mpanjakay.
38 And the chariot was washed at the pool of Samaria where the prostitutes bathed, and the dogs licked up Ahab’s blood, according to the word that the LORD had spoken.
Sinasa marine’ i antara’ i Someroney i sarete’ey, naho tsinela’ o amboao ty lio’e, (toe fiandroa’ o tsimirirañeo ty ao), ty amy enta’ Iehovà nitsarae’ey.
39 As for the rest of the acts of Ahab, along with all his accomplishments and the ivory palace and all the cities he built, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
O fitoloña’ i Akabe ila’eo naho o nanoe’e iabio naho i anjomba niranjie’e an-tsifay vaho o rova maro namboare’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Israeleoy hao?
40 And Ahab rested with his fathers, and his son Ahaziah reigned in his place.
Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Akabe; vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Ahkazià ana’e.
41 In the fourth year of Ahab’s reign over Israel, Jehoshaphat son of Asa became king of Judah.
Niorotse nifehe e Iehoda t’Iehosafate ana’ i Asa amy taom-paha-efa’ i Aka­be mpanjaka’ Israeley.
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-five years. His mother’s name was Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
Ni-telopolo taoñe lime amby t’Iehosafate t’ie namototse nifeleke; le taoñe roapolo-lime amby ty nifehea’e e Ierosalaime ao. I Azobà, ana’ i Silký ty tahinan-drene’e.
43 And Jehoshaphat walked in all the ways of his father Asa; he did not turn away from them, but did what was right in the eyes of the LORD. The high places, however, were not removed; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
Nañavelo ami’ty lia’ i Asà rae’e re, tsy nivìk’ ama’e le ze mahi­ty am-pihaino’ Iehovà avao ty nanoe’e;
44 Jehoshaphat also made peace with the king of Israel.
fe tsy nafahañe añe o tambohoo; le mbe nanao soroñe naho nañenga amo tambohoo ondatio.
45 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, along with the might he exercised and how he waged war, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Nifampilongo amy mpanjaka’ Israeley t’Iehosafate.
46 He banished from the land the male shrine prostitutes who remained from the days of his father Asa.
Le o fitoloña’ Iehosafate ila’eo naho i haozara’e naboa’ey vaho o fialia’eo; tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
47 And there was no king in Edom; a deputy served as king.
Naho o Tsivoatsolo sehan­ga’eo, o mbe nisisa faha’ i Asa, rae’eo, le fi­non­go’e amy taney.
48 Jehoshaphat built ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they never set sail, because they were wrecked at Ezion-geber.
Tsy amam-panjaka t’Edome, fa mpifeleke ty nisolo i mpanjakay.
49 At that time Ahaziah son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants sail with your servants,” but Jehoshaphat refused.
Nandranjy sambon-Tarsise t’Iehosafate hitoha volamena e Ofira añe; f’ie tsy nionjomb’eo; nifoy e Etsione-gebere ao i sambo rey.
50 And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the city of his father David. And his son Jehoram reigned in his place.
Le hoe t’i Ahkazià ana’ i Akabe am’ Iehosafate: Angao hindre lia amo mpi­toro’oo an-tsambo’ o mpitorokoo. Fe tsy nimete t’Iehosafate.
51 In the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat’s reign over Judah, Ahaziah son of Ahab became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria two years.
Le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’Iehosafate, naho nalentek’ aman-droae’e an-drova’ i Davide, rae’e ao vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’Iehorame ana’e.
52 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and walked in the ways of his father and mother and of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.
Niorotse nifehe Israele e Somerone ao t’i Ahkazià amy taom-paha-folo-fito’ ambi’ Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoday, le nifehe Israele roe taoñe,
53 Ahaziah served and worshiped Baal, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger, just as his father had done.
fe nanao halò-tserehañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà naho nañavelo an-tsa­tan-drae’e naho an-tsatan-drene’e naho an-tsata’ Iarovame ana’ i Nebate, ie nampa­nan-kakeo’ Israele. Nitoroñe i Baale re naho nitalahoa’e vaho nisigihe’e t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, fonga nitsikombè’e o nanoen-droae’eo.
