1 Kings 20
1 And Ben-Hadad king of Syria assembled all his host; and there were thirty-two kings with him, and horses and chariots; and he went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
Tokosra Benhadad lun Syria el orani un mwet mweun nukewa lal. Oasr kasreyal sin tokosra tolngoul luo ke mutunfacl saya, wi horse ac chariot natulos. Elos fahsryak kuhlusya acn Samaria ac mweuni.
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab king of Israel into the city, and said to him, Thus says Ben-Hadad:
Tokosra Benhadad el supwala mwet utuk kas lal nu in siti uh nu yorol Tokosra Ahab lun Israel, in fahk, “Tokosra Benhadad el fahk ke sap ku lal
3 Thy silver and thy gold is mine; thy wives also and thy children, the goodliest, are mine.
mu kom in fuhleang silver ac gold lom nu sel, wi mutan kiom ac tulik nukewa nutum ma ku in mano.”
4 And the king of Israel answered and said, My lord, O king, according to thy saying, I am thine, and all that I have.
Ac Ahab el topuk ac fahk, “Folokot ac fahk nu sel Tokosra Benhadad, leum luk, lah nga ac oru oana ma el fahk. El ku in eisyu ac ma nukewa luk.”
5 And the messengers came again, and said, Thus speaks Ben-Hadad saying: I sent to thee indeed, saying, Thou shalt deliver me thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy children;
Tok kutu, mwet utuk kas uh sifilpa foloko nu yorol Ahab ac us pac soko sap sel Benhadad su fahk ouinge: “Nga sapot tari nu sum kom in supwama silver, gold, mutan ac tulik.
6 but to-morrow about this time I will send my servants to thee, and they shall search thy house, and the houses of thy servants; and it shall be, that whatsoever is pleasant in thy sight, they shall put in their hand and take away.
A inge, nga ac supwaot mwet kol fulat lun mwet mweun luk in iluhsya kewa koanon inkul sum, oayapa lohm sin mwet kol fulat lom, ac eis ma nukewa ma elos pangon mu ma saok. Elos ac sun acn ingan pacl se pacna inge lutu.”
7 And the king of Israel called all the elders of the land and said, Mark, I pray you, and see how this [man] seeks mischief; for he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I denied him not.
Tokosra Ahab el pangoneni mwet kol nukewa lun facl sac ac fahk, “Kowos liye ke mwet se inge sukna in kunauskutla uh? El supwama kas nu sik ac sap ngan supwala mutan kiuk, tulik nutik, silver ac gold, ac nga tuh wi na sap lal.”
8 And all the elders and all the people said to him, Hearken not, nor consent.
Na mwet kol ac mwet uh topuk, “Nimet lohng ma el fahk ingan. Nimet kom munasla.”
9 And he said to the messengers of Ben-Hadad, Tell my lord the king, All that thou didst send for to thy servant at the first I will do; but this thing I cannot do. And the messengers departed, and brought him word again.
Ouinge Ahab el fahk nu sin mwet utuk kas lal Benhadad, “Fahkang nu sel tokosra, leum luk, lah nga ac oru sap soko lal meet ah, tusruktu sap soko tok an nga tia ku in lela.” Mwet utuk kas inge som twe sifilpa foloko ke soko pac sap
10 And Ben-Hadad sent to him and said, The gods do so to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for handfuls for all the people that follow me!
sel Benhadad, fahk mu, “Nga ac fahsrot ac us pisen mwet ma ac ku in kunausla siti sum an, ac usla nufon ipin eot mokutkuti inpaolos. Lela god uh in uniyuwi ngan misa, nga fin tia orala!”
11 And the king of Israel answered and said, Tell [him], Let not him that girdeth on boast himself as he that putteth off!
Tokosra Ahab el topuk, “Fahkang nu sel Tokosra Benhadad lah mwet mweun pwaye se oru konkin lal tukun mweun, tia meet liki.”
12 And it came to pass when he heard this word, as he was drinking, he and the kings in the tents, that he said to his servants, Set yourselves. And they set themselves against the city.
Benhadad el eis top lal Ahab ke pacl se ma el, ac tokosra saya ma welul ah, nimnim in lohm nuknuk selos. El sapkin nu sin mwet mweun lal in akola in mweuni siti sac, na elos fahsryang nu yen elos ac mweun we.
13 And behold, a prophet drew near to Ahab king of Israel, and said, Thus saith Jehovah: Hast thou seen all this great multitude? behold, I will deliver it into thy hand this day; and thou shalt know that I am Jehovah.
In pacl sac, mwet palu se som nu yorol Tokosra Ahab ac fahk, “LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Nikmet sangeng sin un mwet mweun lulap se ingan. Nga ac sot kom in kutangulosla misenge, na kom fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.’”
14 And Ahab said, By whom? And he said, Thus saith Jehovah: By the servants of the princes of the provinces. Then he said, Who shall begin the battle? And he said, Thou.
Ahab el siyuk, “Su ac us mweun uh?” Ac mwet palu sac fahk, “LEUM GOD El fahk mu mwet mweun fusr su kolyuk sin kais sie governor in acn Israel pa ac us mweun uh.” Na tokosra el siyuk, “Ac su ac sapsap nu sin mwet nukewa?” Mwet palu sac fahk, “Kom.”
15 And he numbered the servants of the princes of the provinces, and they were two hundred and thirty-two; and after them he numbered all the people, all the children of Israel, seven thousand.
Ouinge tokosra el pangoneni mwet mweun fusr nukewa su muta ye kolyuk lun governor lun kais sie acn in facl Israel, su pisalos mwet luofoko tolngoul luo nufon. Na el pangonak un mwet mweun lun Israel, su pisalos mwet itkosr tausin.
16 And they went out at noon; and Ben-Hadad drank himself drunk in the tents, he and the kings, the thirty-two kings that helped him.
Mweun sac mutawauk ke infulwen len, ke Benhadad ac tokosra tolngoul luo su welul elos sruhila in lohm nuknuk selos.
17 And the servants of the princes of the provinces went out first; and Ben-Hadad sent out, and they told him saying, There are men come out of Samaria.
Mwet mweun fusr Israel elos fahsr meet. Benhadad el tuh supwala mwet kalngeyuk lal in liye acn meeto, ac elos foloko ac fahk nu sel lah un mwet mweun se pa tuku Samaria me.
18 And he said, Whether they be come out for peace, take them alive; or whether they be come out for war, take them alive.
Benhadad el sapkin, “Elos finne tuku in mweun ku in suk misla, sruokolosi a nimet onelosla.”
19 And these servants of the princes of the provinces came out of the city, and the army that followed them.
Mwet mweun fusr uh pa us mutun mweun uh, ac un mwet mweun lun Israel fahsr tokolos.
20 And they slew every one his man; and the Syrians fled, and Israel pursued them; and Ben-Hadad the king of Syria escaped on a horse with the horsemen.
Kais sie sin mwet mweun lun Israel inge uniya mwet se ma el anwuk nu se. Mwet Syria elos kaing, ac mwet Israel ukwalos na. A Benhadad el kaingla fin horse natul, wi pac kutu mwet mweun lal su kasrusr fin horse.
21 And the king of Israel went out, and smote the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.
Tokosra Ahab el som nu yen mweun uh orek we, ac sruokya horse ac chariot, ac orala kutangla na lulap se fin mwet Syria.
22 And the prophet drew near to the king of Israel, and said to him, Go, strengthen thyself, and understand, and see what thou shalt do; for at the return of the year the king of Syria will come up against thee.
Na mwet palu sac som nu yorol Tokosra Ahab ac fahk, “Folokla ac musaeak un mwet mweun lom an, akola akwoye, mweyen tokosra lun Syria el ac sifil foloko mweuni kom meet liki infulwen yac fahsru.”
23 And the servants of the king of Syria said to him, Their gods are gods of the mountains; therefore they were stronger than we; but if we fight against them on the plateau, shall we not be stronger than they?
Mwet kol fulat lal Tokosra Benhadad elos fahk nu sel, “God lun mwet Israel ingan elos god fineol, pa pwanang mwet Israel elos kutangkutla. Tuh kut lulalfongi na yohk lah kut ac kutangulosla kut fin mweunelos yen tupasrpasr.
24 And do this: take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put governors in their stead;
Inge kom eisla tokosra tolngoul luo liki kunokon lalos, ac sang mwet kol ma pisrla ke mweun yen tupasrpasr in aolulos.
25 and number thee an army, like the army that thou hast lost, horse for horse, and chariot for chariot; and we will fight against them on the plateau: shall we not be stronger than they? And he hearkened to their voice, and did so.
Na kom pangoneni mwet mweun lom an in pus oana pisen mwet ma tuh kaingkinkomla, ac sokak horse ac chariot in oana pisen ma wanginla. Kut ac mweuni mwet Israel yen tupasrpasr, ac kut ac fah kutangulosla ke fwil se inge.” Tokosra Benhadad el insese ke kas in kasru lalos inge, ac el oru oana.
26 And it came to pass, at the return of the year, that Ben-Hadad numbered the Syrians, and went up to Aphek, to fight against Israel.
Meet liki infulwen yac se tok ah, el pangoneni mwet lal ac welulos som nwe ke siti Aphek in mweuni mwet Israel.
27 And the children of Israel were numbered and victualled, and they went against them; and the children of Israel encamped before them like two little flocks of goats; but the Syrians filled the land.
Mwet Israel uh pangonyukeni ac akola kufwen mwe mweun natulos, ac som nu nien aktuktuk lalos, ac orekelik nu ke u luo, ac tu forang nu sin mwet Syria. Mwet Israel inge elos oana u srisrik luo ke nani fin lumweyuk elos nu ke pisen mwet Syria, su fahsrelik ac nwakla in polo acn sac nufon.
28 And the man of God drew near, and spoke to the king of Israel and said, Thus saith Jehovah: Because the Syrians have said, Jehovah is a god of the mountains, but he is not a god of the valleys, I will give all this great multitude into thy hand, and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
Sie mwet palu som nu yorol Tokosra Ahab ac fahk, “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk: ‘Mweyen mwet Syria elos fahk mu nga sie god fineol uh ac tia god nu yen tupasrpasr, nga ac sot kom in kutangla un mwet mweun lulap se inge, na kom ac mwet lom nukewa fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.’”
29 And they encamped one over against the other seven days; and it came to pass that on the seventh day the battle was joined; and the children of Israel smote of the Syrians a hundred thousand footmen in one day.
Mwet Syria ac mwet Israel elos mutana in acn elos aktuktuk we ac ngetani nu sie ke len itkosr. Ke len se akitkosr elos mutawauk in mweun, ac mwet Israel elos uniya siofok tausin mwet mweun lun Syria.
30 And the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and the wall fell on twenty-seven thousand men of them that were left. And Ben-Hadad fled, and came into the city, [from] chamber to chamber.
Mwet Syria ma lula elos kaingla nu in siti Aphek, twe pot we ah topla ac toanya pac longoul itkosr tausin selos. Benhadad el kaingla pac nu in siti uh ac wikla in sie fukil oan etok ke sie lohm.
31 And his servants said to him, Behold now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings: let us, I pray thee, put sackcloth on our loins, and ropes upon our heads, and go out to the king of Israel; perhaps he will save thy life.
Mwet pwapa fulat lal ah som nu yorol ac fahk, “Kut lohng mu tokosra lun mwet Israel elos mwet na kulang. Filikutla kut in losya infulwasr ke nuknuk yohk eoa ac pwelah insifasr ke sucl, ac som nu yorol tokosra lun Israel. Na sahp el ac nunak munas nu sum ac tia unikomi.”
32 And they girded sackcloth on their loins, and ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, Thy servant Ben-Hadad says, I pray thee, let me live. And he said, Is he yet alive? he is my brother.
Ouinge elos losya infulwalos ke nuknuk yohk eoa, ac pwelah inkwawalos ke sucl, ac som nu yorol Ahab ac fahk, “Benhadad, mwet kulansap lom, el kwafe nu sum tuh kom in lela elan moul.” Ac Ahab el fahk, “Ku el srakna moul? Wona! El oana tamulel se nu sik!”
33 And the men took it as a good omen, and hastened to catch what came from him, and they said, Thy brother Ben-Hadad. ...And he said, Go, bring him. And Ben-Hadad came forth to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.
Mwet pwapa fulat lal Benhadad elos tupan lah oasr akul wo elos ac liye, ac ke Ahab el fahk “tamulel” na elos sulaklak na fahk, “Pwaye sum, Benhadad el tamulel lom!” Na Ahab el sap, “Usalu nu yuruk.” Ke Benhadad el sun acn we, Ahab el solal elan fanyak welul fin chariot natul uh.
34 And [Ben-Hadad] said to him, The cities that my father took from thy father I will restore; and thou shalt make streets for thyself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria. And I [said Ahab] will send thee away with this covenant. So he made a covenant with him, and sent him away.
Benhadad el fahk nu sel, “Nga ac folokonot siti nukewa ma papa tumuk ah tuh eisla sin papa tomom ah, ac kom fah orala sie acn in kuka ah lom in acn Damascus, oana ke papa tumuk el tuh oru in acn Samaria.” Ahab el topuk, “Ke sripen ma kital aetuila kac inge, nga ac aksukosokyekomla.” Na el orala sie wulela ku inmasrloltal, ac aksukosokyalla.
35 And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to another by the word of Jehovah, Smite me, I pray thee. But the man refused to smite him.
Ke sap lun LEUM GOD, sie mwet palu inmasrlon un mwet palu el sap sie pac selos in puokilya. Tusruktu el srangesr oru.
36 Then said he to him, Because thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, behold, when thou departest from me, the lion will slay thee. And when he had departed from him, the lion found him and slew him.
Na mwet se ma sapkin el fahk nu sel, “Mweyen kom tia akos ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, lion soko ac unikomi ke kom ac tufahna fahla likiyu.” Na ke el tufahna fahla lukel, lion soko fahsryak twe unilya.
37 Then he found another man, and said, Smite me, I pray thee. And the man smote him violently, and wounded [him].
Na mwet palu sac sifilpa som nu yurin sie pac mwet ac fahk, “Puokyuwi!” Na el oru oana el fahk — el liksrenina puokilya na el kineta.
38 And the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with a sash over his eyes.
Mwet palu sac pwela mutal ke nuknuk se tuh in tia akilenyuk el, ac el som tu inkanek ah, soano tokosra Israel elan tuku.
39 And as the king passed by, he cried to the king and said, Thy servant went out into the midst of the battle; and behold, a man turned aside, and brought a man to me and said, Keep this man; if by any means he be missing, then shall thy life be for his life, or thou shalt pay a talent of silver.
Ke pacl se tokosra el tuku, na mwet palu sac wola ac fahk, “Leum fulat, ke nga tuh muta ke mweun ah, sie sin mwet mweun ah use sie mwet lokoalok ma el tuh sruokya, ac fahk nu sik, ‘Taranul el uh. El fin kaingla, mwata ac oan fom: fin tia anwuki kom, kom ac moli ke tolu tausin ipin silver.’
40 And as thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone. And the king of Israel said to him, So [is] thy judgment: thyself hast decided [it].
Tusruk nga tuh kafofo ke kutepacna ma saya, na mwet sac kaingla.” Tokosra el fahk, “Kom sifacna pakiya mwe kalya nu sum uh, ac kom fah akkeokyeyuk fal nu kac.”
41 Then he hastily took the sash away from his face; and the king of Israel discerned him, that he was of the prophets.
Mwet palu sac tulakunla ipin nuknuk sac liki mutal, na tokosra el akilenulak lah sie sin mwet palu ah pa el.
42 And he said to him, Thus saith Jehovah: Because thou hast let go out of thy hand the man that I had devoted to destruction, thy life shall be for his life, and thy people for his people.
Na mwet palu sac fahk nu sel tokosra, “Pa inge kas sin LEUM GOD: ‘Mweyen kom tuh lela mwet se nga sap in anwuki in kaingla, kom ac fah moli ke moul lom, ac un mwet mweun lom ac fah kunausyukla mweyen elos lela un mwet mweun lal in kaingla.’”
43 And the king of Israel went to his house sullen and vexed, and came to Samaria.
Tokosra el folokla nu in acn sel Samaria, ac el fosrnga ac inse toasr.
