2 Chronicles 18
1 Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance, and he allied himself with Ahab by marriage.
Yanzu fa Yehoshafat ya wadace ƙwarai yana kuma da girma, ya kuma haɗa kansa da Ahab ta wurin aure.
2 And some years later he went down to visit Ahab in Samaria, where Ahab sacrificed many sheep and cattle for him and the people with him, and urged him to march up to Ramoth-gilead.
Bayan’yan shekaru sai ya gangara don yă ziyarci Ahab a Samariya. Ahab kuwa ya yanka tumaki da shanu masu yawa dominsa da kuma mutanen da suke tare da shi, ya kuma lallashe shi yă yaƙi Ramot Gileyad.
3 Ahab king of Israel asked Jehoshaphat king of Judah, “Will you go with me against Ramoth-gilead?” And Jehoshaphat replied, “I am like you, and my people are your people; we will join you in the war.”
Ahab sarkin Isra’ila ya tambayi Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda ya ce, “Za ka tafi tare da ni mu yaƙi Ramot Gileyad?” Yehoshafat ya amsa ya ce, “Ni kamar kai ne, kuma mutanena kamar naka ne; za mu tafi tare da kai a yaƙin.”
4 But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, “Please inquire first for the word of the LORD.”
Amma Yehoshafat ya kuma ce wa sarkin Isra’ila, “Da fari mu nemi bishewar Ubangiji.”
5 So the king of Israel assembled the prophets, four hundred men, and asked them, “Should we go to war against Ramoth-gilead, or should we refrain?” “Go up,” they replied, “and God will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya tattara annabawa duka, mutane ɗari huɗu, ya kuma tambaye su, “Mu tafi yaƙi a kan Ramot Gileyad ko kada mu tafi?” Suka amsa “Tafi, gama Allah zai ba da shi cikin hannun sarki.”
6 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there not still a prophet of the LORD here of whom we can inquire?”
Amma Yehoshafat ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Babu wani annabin Ubangiji a nan da za mu tambaya?”
7 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.
Sarki Isra’ila ya amsa wa Yehoshafat, “Akwai guda har yanzu mai suna Mikahiya ɗan Imla, za mu iya nemi nufin Ubangiji daga gare shi, sai dai ba na sonsa domin bai taɓa yin annabci wani abu mai kyau game da ni ba, sai kullum masifa.” Yehoshafat ya amsa ya ce, “Kada sarki yă faɗa haka.”
8 So the king of Israel called one of his officials and said, “Bring Micaiah son of Imlah at once.”
Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya kira ɗaya daga cikin ma’aikatansa ya ce, “A kawo Mikahiya ɗan Imla nan da nan.”
9 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.
Saye da rigunan sarakuna, sarki Isra’ila da Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda suna zaune a kan kujerunsu na mulki a masussuka ta ƙofar shigar Samariya, tare da dukan annabawa suna ta annabci a gabansu.
10 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.’”
To, fa, Zedekiya ɗan Kena’ana ya yi ƙahonin ƙarfe, ya kuma furta, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Da waɗannan za ka sassoki Arameyawa sai sun hallaka.’”
11 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.”
Dukan sauran annabawan suka yi irin annabcin nan. Suka ce, “A haura zuwa Ramot Gileyad a yi nasara, gama Ubangiji zai ba da shi cikin hannun sarki.”
12 Then the messenger who had gone to call Micaiah instructed him, “Behold, with one accord the words of the prophets are favorable to the king. So please let your words be like theirs, and speak favorably.”
Ɗan saƙon da ya tafi don yă kawo Mikahiya kuwa ya ce masa, “Duba, kowannen a cikin annabawa ya yi faɗin nasara wa sarki. Don haka kai ma ka yi maganar da za tă gamshi sarki kamar yadda suka yi.”
13 But Micaiah said, “As surely as the LORD lives, I will speak whatever my God tells me.”
Amma Mikahiya ya ce, “Na rantse da ran Ubangiji, zan faɗa masa kawai abin da Allahna ya faɗa.”
14 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 they will be given into your hand.”
Da suka iso, sarki ya tambaye shi, “Mika, mu tafi mu yaƙi Ramot Gileyad, ko kada mu tafi?” Ya amsa, “Kai masa yaƙi za ka kuwa yi nasara, gama za a ba da su a hannunka.”
15 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?”
Sarki ya ce masa, “Sau nawa zan sa ka rantse don ka faɗa gaskiya a cikin sunan Ubangiji?”
16 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.’”
Sa’an nan Mikahiya ya amsa, “Na ga dukan Isra’ila sun warwatsu a kan tuddai kamar tumakin da ba su da makiyaya, kuma Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Waɗannan mutane ba su da maigida. Bari kowanne yă tafi gida cikin salama.’”
17 Then the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not tell you that he never prophesies good for me, but only bad?”
Sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa Yehoshafat, “Ban faɗa maka cewa bai taɓa yin annabci wani abu mai kyau game da ni, in ba masifa ba?”
18 Micaiah continued, “Therefore hear the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing on His right and on His left.
Mikahiya ya ci gaba, “Saboda haka sai ka ji maganar Ubangiji. Na ga Ubangiji yana zama a kan kursiyinsa tare da dukan rundunar sama tsaye a damansa da hagunsa.
19 And the LORD said, ‘Who will entice Ahab king of Israel to march up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ And one suggested this, and another that.
Ubangiji kuwa ya ce, ‘Wa zai ruɗe Ahab sarki Isra’ila zuwa yaƙi da Ramot Gileyad da kuma zuwa mutuwarsa a can?’ “Wani ya ba da wata shawara, wani kuma wata dabam.
20 Then a spirit came forward, stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’ ‘By what means?’ asked the LORD.
A ƙarshe, wani ruhu ya zo gaba, ya tsaya a gaban Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Zan ruɗe shi.’ “Ubangiji ya yi tambaya, ‘Ta wace hanya?’
21 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.’
“Ya ce, ‘Zan tafi in zama ruhun ƙarya a bakunan dukan annabawansa.’ “Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Za ka yi nasara a ruɗinsa. Ka tafi, ka yi haka.’
22 So you see, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouths of these prophets of yours, and the LORD has pronounced disaster against you.”
“To yanzu, Ubangiji ya sa ruhun ruɗu a bakunan waɗannan annabawanka. Ubangiji ya ƙayyade masifa dominka.”
23 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?”
Sai Zedekiya ɗan Kena’ana ya haura ya mari Mikahiya a fuska. Ya ce, “Ta wace hanya ce ruhun Ubangiji ya fita daga gare ni ya zo ya yi magana da kai?”
24 Micaiah replied, “You will soon see, on that day when you go and hide in an inner room.”
Mikahiya ya amsa ya ce, “Za ka gane a ranar da ka je ka ɓuya a can cikin ɗaki.”
25 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,
Sa’an nan sarkin Isra’ila ya umarta, “Ɗauki Mikahiya ku aika da shi zuwa ga Amon mai mulkin birni da kuma ga Yowash ɗan sarki,
26 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.’”
ku ce ga abin da sarki ya ce, ‘Ku jefa wannan mutum a kurkuku kada kuma ku ba shi wani abu sai dai burodi da ruwa har sai na dawo lafiya.’”
27 But Micaiah replied, “If you ever return safely, the LORD has not spoken through me.” Then he added, “Take heed, all you people!”
Mikahiya ya furta ya ce, “Idan har ka dawo lafiya, to, Ubangiji bai yi magana ta wurina ba.” Ya kuma ƙara da cewa, “Dukanku mutane, ku lura da maganata!”
28 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila da Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda suka haura zuwa Ramot Gileyad.
29 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.
Sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa Yehoshafat, “Zan ɓad da kama in shiga yaƙin, amma ka sa kayanka na sarauta.” Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya ɓad da kama ya shiga cikin yaƙin.
30 Now the king of Aram had ordered his chariot commanders, “Do not fight with anyone, small or great, except the king of Israel.”
To, fa, sarkin Aram ya umarce shugabannin keken yaƙinsa ya ce, “Kada ku yaƙi kowa, ƙarami ko babba, sai dai sarkin Isra’ila.”
31 When the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they said, “This is the king of Israel!” So they turned to fight against him, but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him. God drew them away from him.
Sa’ad da shugabannin kekunan yaƙi suka ga Yehoshafat, sai suka yi tsammani, “Wannan ne sarkin Isra’ila.” Saboda haka suka juya don su yaƙe shi, amma Yehoshafat ya yi ihu, Ubangiji kuma ya taimake shi. Allah ya janye su daga gare shi,
32 And when the chariot commanders saw that he was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
gama sa’ad da shugabannin keken yaƙi suka ga cewa ba shi ne sarkin Isra’ila ba, sai suka daina binsa.
33 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!”
Amma wani ya harba kibiya haka kawai, sai kibiyar ta sami sarki Ahab na Isra’ila a kafaɗa tsakanin rigar yaƙinsa na ƙarfe da ƙarfen ƙirjinsa. Sai sarki ya ce wa mai tuƙan keken yaƙi, “Juya ka fitar da ni daga wurin yaƙin. An ji mini rauni.”
34 The battle raged throughout that day, and the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot facing the Arameans until evening. And at sunset he died.
Duk yini yaƙi ya yi ta cin gaba, sarkin Isra’ila kuwa ya jingina kansa a cikin keken yaƙinsa yana duban Arameyawa har yamma. Sa’an nan a fāɗuwar rana sai ya mutu.
