1 Kings 22
1 Now for three years there was no war between Aram and Israel.
transierunt igitur tres anni absque bello inter Syriam et Israhel
2 And it came about in the third year, that Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, came down to the king of Israel.
in anno autem tertio descendit Iosaphat rex Iuda ad regem Israhel
3 And the king of Israel said to his servants, Do you not see that Ramoth-gilead is ours? and we are doing nothing to get it back from the hands of the king of Aram.
dixitque rex Israhel ad servos suos ignoratis quod nostra sit Ramoth Galaad et neglegimus tollere eam de manu regis Syriae
4 And he said to Jehoshaphat, Will you go with me to Ramoth-gilead to make war? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as you are: my people as your people, my horses as your horses.
et ait ad Iosaphat veniesne mecum ad proeliandum in Ramoth Galaad
5 Then Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Let us now get directions from the Lord.
dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israhel sicut ego sum ita et tu populus meus et populus tuus unum sunt et equites mei et equites tui dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israhel quaere oro te hodie sermonem Domini
6 So the king of Israel got all the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, Am I to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And they said, Go up: for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
congregavit ergo rex Israhel prophetas quadringentos circiter viros et ait ad eos ire debeo in Ramoth Galaad ad bellandum an quiescere qui responderunt ascende et dabit Dominus in manu regis
7 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions?
dixit autem Iosaphat non est hic propheta Domini quispiam ut interrogemus per eum
8 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, Micaiah, son of Imlah; but I have no love for him, for he is a prophet of evil to me and not of good. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
et ait rex Israhel ad Iosaphat remansit vir unus per quem possimus interrogare Dominum sed ego odi eum quia non prophetat mihi bonum sed malum Micheas filius Hiemla cui Iosaphat ait ne loquaris ita rex
9 Then the king of Israel sent for one of his unsexed servants and said, Go quickly and come back with Micaiah, the son of Imlah.
vocavit ergo rex Israhel eunuchum quendam et dixit ei festina adducere Micheam filium Hiemla
10 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, were seated on their seats of authority, dressed in their robes, by the doorway into Samaria; and all the prophets were acting as prophets before them.
rex autem Israhel et Iosaphat rex Iuda sedebat unusquisque in solio suo vestiti cultu regio in area iuxta ostium portae Samariae et universi prophetae prophetabant in conspectu eorum
11 And Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, made himself horns of iron and said, The Lord says, Pushing back the Aramaeans with these, you will put an end to them completely.
fecit quoque sibi Sedecias filius Chanaan cornua ferrea et ait haec dicit Dominus his ventilabis Syriam donec deleas eam
12 And all the prophets said the same thing, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and it will go well for you, for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
omnesque prophetae similiter prophetabant dicentes ascende in Ramoth Galaad et vade prospere et tradet Dominus in manu regis
13 Now the servant who had gone to get Micaiah said to him, See now, all the prophets with one voice are saying good things to the king; so let your words be like theirs and say good things.
nuntius vero qui ierat ut vocaret Micheam locutus est ad eum dicens ecce sermones prophetarum ore uno bona regi praedicant sit ergo et sermo tuus similis eorum et loquere bona
14 And Micaiah said, By the living Lord, whatever the Lord says to me I will say.
cui Micheas ait vivit Dominus quia quodcumque dixerit mihi Dominus hoc loquar
15 When he came to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, are we to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And in answer he said, Go up, and it will go well for you; and the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
venit itaque ad regem et ait illi rex Michea ire debemus in Ramoth Galaad ad proeliandum an cessare cui ille respondit ascende et vade prospere et tradet Dominus in manu regis
16 Then the king said to him, Have I not, again and again, put you on your oath to say nothing to me but what is true in the name of the Lord?
dixit autem rex ad eum iterum atque iterum adiuro te ut non loquaris mihi nisi quod verum est in nomine Domini
17 Then he said, I saw all Israel wandering on the mountains like sheep without a keeper; and the Lord said, These have no master: let them go back, every man to his house in peace.
et ille ait vidi cunctum Israhel dispersum in montibus quasi oves non habentes pastorem et ait Dominus non habent dominum isti revertatur unusquisque in domum suam in pace
18 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not say that he would not be a prophet of good but of evil?
dixit ergo rex Israhel ad Iosaphat numquid non dixi tibi quia non prophetat mihi bonum sed semper malum
19 And he said, Give ear now to the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord seated on his seat of power, with all the army of heaven in their places round him at his right hand and at his left.
ille vero addens ait propterea audi sermonem Domini vidi Dominum sedentem super solium suum et omnem exercitum caeli adsistentem ei a dextris et a sinistris
20 And the Lord said, How may Ahab be tricked into going up to Ramoth-gilead to his death? And one said one thing and one another.
et ait Dominus quis decipiet Ahab regem Israhel ut ascendat et cadat in Ramoth Galaad et dixit unus verba huiuscemodi et alius aliter
21 Then a spirit came forward and took his place before the Lord and said, I will get him to do it by a trick.
egressus est autem spiritus et stetit coram Domino et ait ego decipiam illum cui locutus est Dominus in quo
22 And the Lord said, How? And he said, I will go out and be a spirit of deceit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Your trick will have its effect on him: go out and do so.
et ille ait egrediar et ero spiritus mendax in ore omnium prophetarum eius et dixit Dominus decipies et praevalebis egredere et fac ita
23 And now, see, the Lord has put a spirit of deceit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the Lord has said evil against you.
nunc igitur ecce dedit Dominus spiritum mendacii in ore omnium prophetarum tuorum qui hic sunt et Dominus locutus est contra te malum
24 Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of the face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you?
accessit autem Sedecias filius Chanaan et percussit Micheam in maxillam et dixit mene ergo dimisit spiritus Domini et locutus est tibi
25 And Micaiah said, Truly, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to keep yourself safe.
et ait Micheas visurus es in die illa quando ingredieris cubiculum intra cubiculum ut abscondaris
26 And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah and send him back to Amon, the ruler of the town, and to Joash, the king's son;
et ait rex Israhel tollite Micheam et maneat apud Amon principem civitatis et apud Ioas filium Ammelech
27 And say, It is the king's order that this man is to be put in prison and given prison food till I come again in peace.
et dicite eis haec dicit rex mittite virum istum in carcerem et sustentate eum pane tribulationis et aqua angustiae donec revertar in pace
28 And Micaiah said, If you come back at all in peace, the Lord has not sent his word by me.
dixitque Micheas si reversus fueris in pace non est locutus Dominus in me et ait audite populi omnes
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up to Ramoth-gilead.
ascendit itaque rex Israhel et Iosaphat rex Iuda in Ramoth Galaad
30 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will make a change in my clothing, so that I do not seem to be the king, and will go into the fight; but do you put on your robes. So the king of Israel made a change in his dress and went into the fight.
dixitque rex Israhel ad Iosaphat sume arma et ingredere proelium et induere vestibus tuis porro rex Israhel mutavit habitum et ingressus est bellum
31 Now the king of Aram had given orders to the thirty-two captains of his war-carriages, saying, Make no attack on small or great, but only on the king of Israel.
rex autem Syriae praeceperat principibus curruum triginta duobus dicens non pugnabitis contra minorem et maiorem quempiam nisi contra regem Israhel solum
32 So when the captains of the war-carriages saw Jehoshaphat, they said, Truly, this is the king of Israel; and turning against him, they came round him, but Jehoshaphat gave a cry.
cum ergo vidissent principes curruum Iosaphat suspicati sunt quod ipse esset rex Israhel et impetu facto pugnabant contra eum et exclamavit Iosaphat
33 And when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.
intellexeruntque principes curruum quod non esset rex Israhel et cessaverunt ab eo
34 And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.
unus autem quidam tetendit arcum in incertum sagittam dirigens et casu percussit regem Israhel inter pulmonem et stomachum at ille dixit aurigae suo verte manum tuam et eice me de exercitu quia graviter vulneratus sum
35 But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans, and the floor of the carriage was covered with the blood from his wound, and by evening he was dead.
commissum est ergo proelium in die illa et rex Israhel stabat in curru suo contra Syros et mortuus est vesperi fluebat autem sanguis plagae in sinum currus
36 And about sundown a cry went up from all parts of the army, saying, Let every man go back to his town and his country, for the king is dead.
et praeco personuit in universo exercitu antequam sol occumberet dicens unusquisque revertatur in civitatem et in terram suam
37 And they came to Samaria, and put the king's body to rest in Samaria.
mortuus est autem rex et perlatus est Samariam sepelieruntque regem in Samaria
38 And the war-carriage was washed by the pool of Samaria, which was the bathing-place of the loose women, and the dogs were drinking his blood there, as the Lord had said.
et laverunt currum in piscina Samariae et linxerunt canes sanguinem eius et habenas laverunt iuxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat
39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all he did, and his ivory house, and all the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
reliqua vero sermonum Ahab et universa quae fecit et domus eburneae quam aedificavit cunctarumque urbium quas extruxit nonne scripta sunt haec in libro verborum dierum regum Israhel
40 So Ahab was put to rest with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.
dormivit ergo Ahab cum patribus suis et regnavit Ohozias filius eius pro eo
41 And Jehoshaphat, the son of Asa, became king over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab's rule over Israel.
Iosaphat filius Asa regnare coeperat super Iudam anno quarto Ahab regis Israhel
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was king for twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.
triginta quinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset et viginti et quinque annos regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Azuba filia Salai
43 He did as Asa his father had done, not turning away from it, but doing what was right in the eyes of the Lord; but the high places were not taken away: the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.
et ambulavit in omni via Asa patris sui et non declinavit ex ea fecitque quod rectum est in conspectu Domini verumtamen excelsa non abstulit adhuc enim populus sacrificabat et adolebat incensum in excelsis
44 And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
pacemque habuit Iosaphat cum rege Israhel
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his great power, and how he went to war, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
reliqua autem verborum Iosaphat et opera eius quae gessit et proelia nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Iuda
46 He put an end to the rest of those who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, all those who were still in the land in the time of his father Asa.
sed et reliquias effeminatorum qui remanserant in diebus Asa patris eius abstulit de terra
47 At that time there was no king in Edom;
nec erat tunc rex constitutus in Edom
48 And the representative of King Jehoshaphat made a Tarshish-ship to go to Ophir for gold, but it did not go, because it was broken at Ezion-geber.
rex vero Iosaphat fecerat classes in mari quae navigarent in Ophir propter aurum et ire non potuerunt quia confractae sunt in Asiongaber
49 Then Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, said to Jehoshaphat, Let my men go with yours in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not let them.
tunc ait Ohozias filius Ahab ad Iosaphat vadant servi mei cum servis tuis in navibus et noluit Iosaphat
50 Then Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Jehoram his son became king in his place.
dormivitque cum patribus suis et sepultus est cum eis in civitate David patris sui regnavitque Ioram filius eius pro eo
51 Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of the rule of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, and he was king over Israel for two years.
Ohozias autem filius Ahab regnare coeperat super Israhel in Samaria anno septimodecimo Iosaphat regis Iuda regnavitque super Israhel duobus annis
52 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, going in the ways of his father and his mother, and in the ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel do evil.
et fecit malum in conspectu Domini et ambulavit in via patris sui et matris suae et in via Hieroboam filii Nabath qui peccare fecit Israhel
53 He was a servant and worshipper of Baal, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath, as his father had done.
servivit quoque Baal et adoravit eum et inritavit Dominum Deum Israhel iuxta omnia quae fecerat pater eius
