< 2 Chronicles 18 >
1 Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance, and he allied himself with Ahab by marriage.
A IA ia Iehosapata ka waiwai, a me ka hanohano he nui loa, a kuikahi pu ae la ia me Ahaba.
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.
A pau ae la kekahi mau makahiki, iho iho la oia ilalo io Ahaba la ma Samaria: a pepebi iho la o Ahaba nana, a na na kanaka me ia i na hipa, a me na bipi he nui loa, a noi ikaika mai ia ia e pii pu me ia i Ramota-Gileada.
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.”
Olelo mai la o Ahaba ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata i ke alii o ka Iuda, Aole anei oe e hele pu me au i Ramota-Gileada? I aku la kela, E like me oe pela no au, e like me kou poe kanaka, pela ko'u poe kanaka, o kakou pu ma ke kaua.
4 But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, “Please inquire first for the word of the LORD.”
I aku la o Iehosapata i ke alii o ka Iseraela, E ninau oe i ka olelo a Iehova i keia la.
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.”
Alaila houluulu ae la ke alii o ka Iseraela i na kaula eha haneri kanaka, a olelo aku la ia lakou, E hele anei makou i Ramota-Gileada i ke kaua? a e oki paha? I mai la lakou ia ia, O pii, a na ke Akua ia e haawi mai iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
6 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there not still a prophet of the LORD here of whom we can inquire?”
Olelo aku la o Iehosapata, Aole anei he kaula e ae o Iehova maanei i ninau kakou ia ia?
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.
I mai la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata, Eia no kekahi kanaka i koe ma ona la e imi ai ia Iehova, o Mikaia kona inoa, ke keiki a Imela, aka, he inaina ko'u ia ia; no ka mea, aole i wanana mai ia no'u i ka pomaikai, aka, i ka poino wale no i kona mau la a pau. I aku la o Iehosapata, Mai olelo ke alii pela.
8 So the king of Israel called one of his officials and said, “Bring Micaiah son of Imlah at once.”
Kahea aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela i kekahi o na luna haku, E kii koke oe ia Mikaia ke keiki a Imela.
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.
A noho iho la ke alii o ka Iseraela a me Iehosapata ke alii o ka Iuda, kela mea keia mea maluna o kona nohoalii, ua aahu laua i ko laua aahu alii, a noho laua ma kahi akea ma ka puka kahi e komo ai iloko o Samaria; a wanana iho la na kaula a pau imua o laua.
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.’”
A o Zedakia ke keiki a Kenaana, hana iho la ia nona i mau kiwi hao, a olelo mai la, Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova, Me keia mail mea oe e pahu aku ai i ko Suria, a pau lakou.
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.”
A wanana ae la ka poe kaula a pau loa pela, i mai la, E pii i Ramota-Gileada, a lanakila; ua haawi mai o Iehova ia wahi iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
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.”
A o ka elele, ka mea i hele ae e kii aku ia Mikaia, olelo aku la oia ia ia, i aku la, Aia hoi, o na olelo a pau a na kaula e wanana ai, hookahi wale no ia, o ka pomaikai no ke alii; i hookahi hoi kau olelo me ka lakou, e olelo oe ma ka pomaikai.
13 But Micaiah said, “As surely as the LORD lives, I will speak whatever my God tells me.”
I mai la o Mikaia, Ma ke ola o Iehova, o na mea a ko'u Akua i olelo mai ai, oia ka'u o olelo aku ai.
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.”
A hiki ia i ke alii, olelo ke alii ia ia, E Mikaia, e pii anei makou i Ramota-Gileada, i ke kaua? a e oki paha? I mai kela, E pii, e pomaikai, a e haawiia ua poe la iloko o ko olua lima.
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?”
Olelo aku la ke alii ia ia, Ehia la ka'u mau kauoha hoohiki aku ia oe, i ole oe e olelo mai ia'u i ka mea e, i ka mea oiaio wale no, ma ka inoa o Iehova?
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.’”
I mai la kela, Ua ike au i ka Iseraela a pau e auwana ana ma na mauna e like me na hipa kahu ole; olelo mai o Iehova, aole o lakou haku, e hoi kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho me ka maluhia.
17 Then the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not tell you that he never prophesies good for me, but only bad?”
I aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata, Aole anei au i olelo aku ia oe, aole wanana mai kela no'u i ka pomaikai, aka, i ka poino wale no?
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.
I mai la ke kaula, No ia mea, e hoolohe mai oe i ka olelo a Iehova; ua ike au ia Iehova e noho ana maluna o kona nohoalii, a o ka poe koa a pau o na lani e ku ana ma kona lima akau, a me kona lima hema.
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.
Olelo ae la o Iehova, Owai la ka mea e hoowalewale ia Ahaba ke alii o ka Iseraela i pii aku oia a make ma Ramota-Gileada? Olelo ae la kekahi peneia, a o kekahi hoi peneia.
20 Then a spirit came forward, stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’ ‘By what means?’ asked the LORD.
Alaila, hiki mai kekahi uhane, a ku ae la imua o Iehova, a olelo aku la ia, Owau ke hoowalewale ia ia. I ae la o Iehova, Pehea?
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.’
I aku la kela, E hele au a e lilo au i uhane wahahee iloko o na waha o kona poe kaula a pau. I ae la o Iehova, E hoowalewale oe, a e lanakila hoi; e hele oe a hana no pela.
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.”
Ano hoi, ua haawi mai o Iehova i ka uhane wahahee iloko o ka waha o keia poe kaula au, a o Iehova hoi ua olelo mai oia nau i ka poino.
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?”
Alaila, hookokoke o Zedakia ke keiki a Kenaana, a kui mai ia Mikaia ma ka papalina, me ka i ana mai, Ma ka aoao hea i hele ai ka uhane o Iehova mai o'u aku nei e olelo aku ia oe.
24 Micaiah replied, “You will soon see, on that day when you go and hide in an inner room.”
I aku la o Mikaia, E ike auanei oe, i ka la e komo ai oe iloko o ke keena iloko, e pee iho.
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,
Olelo aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela, E lawe oukou ia Mikaia, a e hoihoi ia ia io Amona la i ka luna iloko o ke kulanakauhale, a ia Ioasa ke keiki a ke alii.
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.’”
E olelo aku ia laua penei, Ua i mai la ke alii, e hookomo i keia kanaka iloko o ka hale paahao, a e hanai ia ia i ka berena o ka pilikia a me ka wai o ka pilikia, a hoi mai au me ka maluhia.
27 But Micaiah replied, “If you ever return safely, the LORD has not spoken through me.” Then he added, “Take heed, all you people!”
I aku la o Mikaia, Ina e hoi io mai oe me ka maluhia, aole o Iehova i olelo mai ma o'u nei. Olelo aku la ia, E hoolohe oukou, e na kanaka a pau.
28 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Alaila pii aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela, a me Iehosapata, ke alii o ka Iuda, i Ramota-Gileada.
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.
Olelo mai la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata, E huna au ia'u iho, a e komo iloko o ke kaua, aka, e komo oe i kou kapa alii. A huna iho ke alii o ka Iseraela ia ia iho, a komo iloko o ke kaua.
30 Now the king of Aram had ordered his chariot commanders, “Do not fight with anyone, small or great, except the king of Israel.”
Ua kauoha ke alii o Suria i na luna o kona mau hale kaa, i aku la, Mai kaua aku i kekahi mea uuku, aole i kekahi mea nui, i ke alii o ka Iseraela wale no.
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.
A ike mai na luna o na hale kaa ia Iehosapata, i iho la lakou, O ke alii ia o ka Iseraela: a puana mai la lakou ia ia a puni e kaua mai ia ia; aka, kahea aku la o Iehosapata, a kokua mai o Iehova ia ia, a hoohuli ae la ke Akua ia lakou mai ona'ku.
32 And when the chariot commanders saw that he was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
Ike mai la na luna o na hale kaa, aole ke alii ia o ka Iseraela, huli ae la lakou mai ona aku la.
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!”
A pana wale mai la kekahi kanaka me kana kakaka, a ku i ke alii o ka Iseraela ma kahi ami o kona paleumauma; a olelo oia i ka mea nana e malama i kona hale kaa, E huli ae kou lima, a e lawe ia'u mai ke kaua aku, no ka mea, ua eha au.
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.
Mahuahua ae la ke kaua ia la; aka, noho iho la ke alii o ka Iseraela iloko o kona hale kaa, e ku e i ko Suria, a ahiahi; a i ka napoo ana o ka la, make iho la ia.
