Chronicles II 18
1 And Josaphat had yet great wealth and glory, and he connected himself by marriage with the house of Achaab.
καὶ ἐγενήθη τῷ Ιωσαφατ ἔτι πλοῦτος καὶ δόξα πολλή καὶ ἐπεγαμβρεύσατο ἐν οἴκῳ Αχααβ
2 And he went down after a term of years to Achaab to Samaria: and Achaab killed for him sheep and calves, in abundance, and for the people with him, and he much desired him to go up with him to Ramoth of the country of Galaad.
καὶ κατέβη διὰ τέλους ἐτῶν πρὸς Αχααβ εἰς Σαμάρειαν καὶ ἔθυσεν αὐτῷ Αχααβ πρόβατα καὶ μόσχους πολλοὺς καὶ τῷ λαῷ τῷ μετ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἠπάτα αὐτὸν τοῦ συναναβῆναι μετ’ αὐτοῦ εἰς Ραμωθ τῆς Γαλααδίτιδος
3 And Achaab king of Israel said to Josaphat king of Juda, Will you go with me to Ramoth of the country of Galaad? And he said to him, As I [am], so also [are] you, as your people, [so] also [is] my people with you for the war.
καὶ εἶπεν Αχααβ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ πρὸς Ιωσαφατ βασιλέα Ιουδα πορεύσῃ μετ’ ἐμοῦ εἰς Ραμωθ τῆς Γαλααδίτιδος καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὡς ἐγώ οὕτως καὶ σύ ὡς ὁ λαός σου καὶ ὁ λαός μου μετὰ σοῦ εἰς πόλεμον
4 And Josaphat said to the king of Israel, Seek, I pray you, the Lord today.
καὶ εἶπεν Ιωσαφατ πρὸς βασιλέα Ισραηλ ζήτησον δὴ σήμερον τὸν κύριον
5 And the king of Israel gathered the prophets, four hundred men, and said to them, Shall I go to Ramoth Galaad to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up, and God shall deliver [it] into the hands of the king.
καὶ συνήγαγεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ τοὺς προφήτας τετρακοσίους ἄνδρας καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς εἰ πορευθῶ εἰς Ραμωθ Γαλααδ εἰς πόλεμον ἢ ἐπίσχω καὶ εἶπαν ἀνάβαινε καὶ δώσει ὁ θεὸς εἰς τὰς χεῖρας τοῦ βασιλέως
6 And Josaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord besides, that we may enquire of him?
καὶ εἶπεν Ιωσαφατ οὐκ ἔστιν ὧδε προφήτης τοῦ κυρίου ἔτι καὶ ἐπιζητήσομεν παρ’ αὐτοῦ
7 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat, There is yet one man by whom to enquire of the Lord; but I hate him, for he does not prophesy concerning me for good, for all his days [are] for evil: this [is] Michaias the son of Jembla. And Josaphat said, Let not the king say so.
καὶ εἶπεν βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ πρὸς Ιωσαφατ ἔτι ἀνὴρ εἷς τοῦ ζητῆσαι τὸν κύριον δῑ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐγὼ ἐμίσησα αὐτόν ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν προφητεύων περὶ ἐμοῦ εἰς ἀγαθά ὅτι πᾶσαι αἱ ἡμέραι αὐτοῦ εἰς κακά οὗτος Μιχαιας υἱὸς Ιεμλα καὶ εἶπεν Ιωσαφατ μὴ λαλείτω ὁ βασιλεὺς οὕτως
8 And the king called an eunuch, and said, [Fetch] quickly Michaias the son of Jembla.
καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ εὐνοῦχον ἕνα καὶ εἶπεν τάχος Μιχαιαν υἱὸν Ιεμλα
9 And the king of Israel and Josaphat king of Juda were sitting each on his throne, and clothed in their robes, sitting in the open space at the entrance of the gate of Samaria: and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
καὶ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ καὶ Ιωσαφατ βασιλεὺς Ιουδα καθήμενοι ἕκαστος ἐπὶ θρόνου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνδεδυμένοι στολὰς καθήμενοι ἐν τῷ εὐρυχώρῳ θύρας πύλης Σαμαρείας καὶ πάντες οἱ προφῆται ἐπροφήτευον ἐναντίον αὐτῶν
10 And Sedekias son of Chanaan made for himself iron horns, and said, Thus says the Lord, With these you shall thrust Syria until it be consumed.
καὶ ἐποίησεν ἑαυτῷ Σεδεκιας υἱὸς Χανανα κέρατα σιδηρᾶ καὶ εἶπεν τάδε λέγει κύριος ἐν τούτοις κερατιεῖς τὴν Συρίαν ἕως ἂν συντελεσθῇ
11 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and you shall prosper; and the Lord shall deliver it into the hands of the king.
καὶ πάντες οἱ προφῆται ἐπροφήτευον οὕτως λέγοντες ἀνάβαινε εἰς Ραμωθ Γαλααδ καὶ εὐοδωθήσῃ καὶ δώσει κύριος εἰς χεῖρας τοῦ βασιλέως
12 And the messenger that went to call Michaias spoke to him, saying, Behold, the prophets have spoken favourably concerning the king with one mouth; let now, I pray you, your words be as [the words] of one of them, and do you speak good things.
καὶ ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ πορευθεὶς τοῦ καλέσαι τὸν Μιχαιαν ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ λέγων ἰδοὺ ἐλάλησαν οἱ προφῆται ἐν στόματι ἑνὶ ἀγαθὰ περὶ τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἔστωσαν δὴ οἱ λόγοι σου ὡς ἑνὸς αὐτῶν καὶ λαλήσεις ἀγαθά
13 And Michaias said, [As] the Lord lives, whatever God shall say to me, that will I speak.
καὶ εἶπεν Μιχαιας ζῇ κύριος ὅτι ὃ ἐὰν εἴπῃ ὁ θεὸς πρός με αὐτὸ λαλήσω
14 And he came to the king, and the king said to him, Michaias, shall I go up to Ramoth Galaad to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go up, and you shall prosper, and they shall be given into your hands.
καὶ ἦλθεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς Μιχαια εἰ πορευθῶ εἰς Ραμωθ Γαλααδ εἰς πόλεμον ἢ ἐπίσχω καὶ εἶπεν ἀνάβαινε καὶ εὐοδώσεις καὶ δοθήσονται εἰς χεῖρας ὑμῶν
15 And the king said to him, How often shall I solemnly charge you that you speak to me nothing but truth in the name of the Lord?
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεύς ποσάκις ὁρκίζω σε ἵνα μὴ λαλήσῃς πρός με πλὴν ἀλήθειαν ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου
16 And he said, I saw Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep without a shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no commander; let each return to his home in peace.
καὶ εἶπεν εἶδον τὸν Ισραηλ διεσπαρμένους ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν ὡς πρόβατα οἷς οὐκ ἔστιν ποιμήν καὶ εἶπεν κύριος οὐκ ἔχουσιν ἡγούμενον ἀναστρεφέτωσαν ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ ἐν εἰρήνῃ
17 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat, Said I not to you, that he would not prophesy concerning me good, but evil?
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ πρὸς Ιωσαφατ οὐκ εἶπά σοι ὅτι οὐ προφητεύει περὶ ἐμοῦ ἀγαθά ἀλλ’ ἢ κακά
18 But he said, Not so. Hear you the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven stood by on his right hand and on his left.
καὶ εἶπεν οὐχ οὕτως ἀκούσατε λόγον κυρίου εἶδον τὸν κύριον καθήμενον ἐπὶ θρόνου αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσα δύναμις τοῦ οὐρανοῦ εἱστήκει ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξ ἀριστερῶν αὐτοῦ
19 And the Lord said, Who will deceive Achaab king of Israel, that he may go up, and fall in Ramoth Galaad? And one spoke this way, and another spoke that way.
καὶ εἶπεν κύριος τίς ἀπατήσει τὸν Αχααβ βασιλέα Ισραηλ καὶ ἀναβήσεται καὶ πεσεῖται ἐν Ραμωθ Γαλααδ καὶ εἶπεν οὗτος οὕτως καὶ οὗτος εἶπεν οὕτως
20 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said, I will deceive him. And the Lord said, Whereby?
καὶ ἐξῆλθεν τὸ πνεῦμα καὶ ἔστη ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ εἶπεν ἐγὼ ἀπατήσω αὐτόν καὶ εἶπεν κύριος ἐν τίνι
21 And he said, I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And [the Lord] said, You shall deceive [him], and shall prevail: go forth, and do so.
καὶ εἶπεν ἐξελεύσομαι καὶ ἔσομαι πνεῦμα ψευδὲς ἐν στόματι πάντων τῶν προφητῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν ἀπατήσεις καὶ δυνήσῃ ἔξελθε καὶ ποίησον οὕτως
22 And now, behold, the Lord has put a false spirit in the mouth of these your prophets, and the Lord has spoken evil against you.
καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἔδωκεν κύριος πνεῦμα ψευδὲς ἐν στόματι πάντων τῶν προφητῶν σου τούτων καὶ κύριος ἐλάλησεν ἐπὶ σὲ κακά
23 Then Sedekias the son of Chanaan drew near, and struck Michaias on the cheek, and said to him, By what way passed the Spirit of the Lord from me to speak to you?
καὶ ἤγγισεν Σεδεκιας υἱὸς Χανανα καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸν Μιχαιαν ἐπὶ τὴν σιαγόνα καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ποίᾳ τῇ ὁδῷ παρῆλθεν πνεῦμα κυρίου παρ’ ἐμοῦ τοῦ λαλῆσαι πρὸς σέ
24 And Michaias said, Behold, you shall see in that day, when you shall go from chamber to chamber to hide yourself.
καὶ εἶπεν Μιχαιας ἰδοὺ ὄψῃ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐν ᾗ εἰσελεύσῃ ταμίειον ἐκ ταμιείου τοῦ κατακρυβῆναι
25 And the king of Israel said, Take Michaias, and carry him back to Emer the governor of the city, and to Joas the captain, the king's son;
καὶ εἶπεν βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ λάβετε τὸν Μιχαιαν καὶ ἀποστρέψατε πρὸς Εμηρ ἄρχοντα τῆς πόλεως καὶ πρὸς Ιωας ἄρχοντα υἱὸν τοῦ βασιλέως
26 and you shall say, Thus said the king, Put this fellow into the prison house, and let him eat the bread of affliction, and [drink] the water of affliction, until I return in peace.
καὶ ἐρεῖς οὕτως εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεύς ἀπόθεσθε τοῦτον εἰς οἶκον φυλακῆς καὶ ἐσθιέτω ἄρτον θλίψεως καὶ ὕδωρ θλίψεως ἕως τοῦ ἐπιστρέψαι με ἐν εἰρήνῃ
27 And Michaias said, If you do at all return in peace, the Lord has not spoken by me. And he said, Hear, all you people.
καὶ εἶπεν Μιχαιας ἐὰν ἐπιστρέφων ἐπιστρέψῃς ἐν εἰρήνῃ οὐκ ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐν ἐμοί ἀκούσατε λαοὶ πάντες
28 So the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, went up to Ramoth Galaad.
καὶ ἀνέβη βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ καὶ Ιωσαφατ βασιλεὺς Ιουδα εἰς Ραμωθ Γαλααδ
29 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat, Disguise me, and I will enter into the battle: and do you put on my raiment. so the king of Israel disguised himself, and entered into the battle.
καὶ εἶπεν βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ πρὸς Ιωσαφατ κατακαλύψομαι καὶ εἰσελεύσομαι εἰς τὸν πόλεμον καὶ σὺ ἔνδυσαι τὸν ἱματισμόν μου καὶ συνεκαλύψατο βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν πόλεμον
30 Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight neither against small nor great, but only against the king of Israel.
καὶ βασιλεὺς Συρίας ἐνετείλατο τοῖς ἄρχουσιν τῶν ἁρμάτων τοῖς μετ’ αὐτοῦ λέγων μὴ πολεμεῖτε τὸν μικρὸν καὶ τὸν μέγαν ἀλλ’ ἢ τὸν βασιλέα Ισραηλ μόνον
31 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel: and they compassed him about to fight against him: and Josaphat cried out, and the Lord delivered him; and God turned them away from him.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδον οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν ἁρμάτων τὸν Ιωσαφατ καὶ αὐτοὶ εἶπαν Βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ ἐστίν καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν αὐτὸν τοῦ πολεμεῖν καὶ ἐβόησεν Ιωσαφατ καὶ κύριος ἔσωσεν αὐτόν καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν αὐτοὺς ὁ θεὸς ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ
32 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned away from him.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδον οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν ἁρμάτων ὅτι οὐκ ἦν βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ
33 And a man drew a bow with a good aim, and struck the king of Israel between the lungs and the breast-plate: and he said to the charioteer, Turn your hand, drive me out of the battle, for I am wounded.
καὶ ἀνὴρ ἐνέτεινεν τόξον εὐστόχως καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸν βασιλέα Ισραηλ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ πνεύμονος καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θώρακος καὶ εἶπεν τῷ ἡνιόχῳ ἐπίστρεφε τὴν χεῖρά σου καὶ ἐξάγαγέ με ἐκ τοῦ πολέμου ὅτι ἐπόνεσα
34 And the battle turned in that day; and the king of Israel remained on the chariot against Syria until evening, and died at sunset.
καὶ ἐτροπώθη ὁ πόλεμος ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ ἦν ἑστηκὼς ἐπὶ τοῦ ἅρματος ἕως ἑσπέρας ἐξ ἐναντίας Συρίας καὶ ἀπέθανεν δύνοντος τοῦ ἡλίου
