2 Chronicles 18

1 And Jehoshaphat had riches and honour in abundance; and he allied himself with Ahab by marriage.

Jehosaphat loe paroeai angraenghaih hoi pakoehhaih ah oh; anih loe zu lakhaih rang hoiah Ahab hoi angdaehhaih to sak.

2 And after [certain] years he went down to Ahab, to Samaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people that were with him, and urged him to go up against Ramoth-Gilead.

Saning nazetto maw oh pacoengah, Ahab khae paqaih hanah Samaria ah a caeh tathuk. Ahab mah Jehosaphat hoi anih ih kaminawk hanah, paroeai tuu hoi maitawnawk to boh pae moe, anih hoi nawnto Ramoth-Gilead tuk hanah pacae.

3 And Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go with me to Ramoth-Gilead? And he said to him, I am as thou, and my people as thy people; and [I will be] with thee in the war.

Israel siangpahrang Ahab mah Judah siangpahrang Jehosaphat khaeah, Ramoth-Gilead to nang tuk haih han maw? tiah a naa. Jehosaphat mah kai doeh nang ni; Kai ih kaminawk doeh nang ih kami ah ni oh o; nang hoi nawnto misa kang tuk pae o han, tiah a naa.

4 And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, this day of the word of Jehovah.

Jehosaphat mah Israel siangpahrang khaeah, Vaihniah Angraeng khaeah lokdueng hmaloe ah, tiah a naa.

5 And the king of Israel assembled the prophets, four hundred men, and said to them, Shall we go against Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up, and God will give it into the king's hand.

To pongah Israel siangpahrang mah, tahmaa cumvai palito kawk moe, nihcae khaeah, Ramoth-Gilead tuk hanah a caeh o han maw, a caeh o mak ai? tiah a naa. Nihcae mah, Caeh oh, Sithaw mah to vangpui to na ban ah paek tih, tiah a naa o.

6 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah besides, that we might inquire of him?

Toe Jehosaphat mah, lok a dueng o hanah, hae ah Angraeng ih tahmaa mi doeh om ai maw? tiah a naa.

7 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Jehovah; but I hate him, for he prophesies no good concerning me, but always evil: [it is] Micah the son of Imlah. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

Israel siangpahrang mah Jehosaphat khaeah, Aicae mah lokdueng hanah Angraeng ih kami maeto oh vop, toe anih loe kai kawng kahoih vaito doeh thui ai, ka sethaih khue to a thuih pongah, anih to ka hnukma; anih loe Imlah capa Mikaiah, tiah a naa. To naah Jehosaphat mah, Siangpahrang loe to tiah lok apaeh han om ai, tiah a naa.

8 Then the king of Israel called a chamberlain, and said, Fetch quickly Micah the son of Imlah.

To pongah Israel siangpahrang mah angmah ih angraeng maeto kawk moe, Imlah capa Mikaiah to karangah kawk ah, tiah lokpaek.

9 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, having put on their robes, sat each on his throne; and they sat in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.

Israel siangpahrang hoi Judah siangpahrang Jehosaphat loe, siangpahrang khukbuen to angkhuk hoi moe, Samaria vangpui akunhaih khongkha taeng ih, kakong ahmuen ah angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnut hoi; to naah tahmaanawk boih mah nihnik hmaa ah lokthuih pae o.

10 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made for himself horns of iron, and he said, Thus saith Jehovah: With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou have exterminated them.

Kenaanah capa Zedekiah mah sum hoi sak ih taki to lak moe, Angraeng mah, Syria prae nam rosak ai karoek to, hae taki hoiah na daeng tih, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.

11 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-Gilead, and prosper; for Jehovah will give it into the king's hand.

Kalah tahmaanawk boih mah doeh to tiah thuih o toeng; Ramoth-Gilead to tuh ah, na pazawk tih; Angraeng mah siangpahrang ban ah paek tih, tiah a naa o.

12 And the messenger that went to call Micah spoke to him saying, Behold, the words of the prophets [declare] good to the king with one assent: let thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and declare good.

Mikaiah khaeah kacaeh laicaeh mah anih khaeah, Khenah, siangpahrang mah pazawk tih hmang, tiah tahmaanawk boih mah kanghmong lok to thuih o; nihcae mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah lok to thui ah, tahngai kahoih ah lok na thuih nahaeloe hoi tih, tiah a naa.

13 And Micah said, As Jehovah liveth, even what my God shall say, that will I declare.

Toe Mikaiah mah, Angraeng loe hing pongah, ka Sithaw mah thuih ih lok khue ni ka thuih han, tiah a naa.

14 And he came to the king. And the king said to him, Micah, shall we go against Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper; and they will be given into your hands.

Anih siangpahrang hmaa ah phak naah, siangpahrang mah anih khaeah, Mikaiah, Ramoth-Gilead tuk hanah a caeh o han maw, a caeh o mak ai? tiah lok a dueng. Anih mah, Caeh oh loe, pazawk oh; nihcae to na ban ah paek tih, tiah a naa.

15 And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou tell me nothing but truth in the name of Jehovah?

Siangpahrang mah anih khaeah, Kamsoem lok khue ai ah loe, Angraeng ih ahmin hoiah kai khaeah kamsoem ai lok to thui hmah, tiah vai nazetto maw lokkamhaih kang saksak boeh? tiah a naa.

16 And he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. And Jehovah said, These have no master: let them return every man to his house in peace.

Mikaiah mah, Toepkung tawn ai mae nuiah kamhet tuu caa baktiah kamhet phang Israel kaminawk to ka hnuk; Angraeng mah, Hae kaminawk loe angraeng tawn o ai pongah, kaminawk loe angmacae im ah amlaem o boih nasoe, tiah thuih, tiah a naa.

17 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he prophesies no good concerning me, but evil?

Israel siangpahrang mah Jehosaphat khaeah, Kai kawng kahoih vaito doeh thui ai; kasae ngai ni a thuih, tiah kang thuih boeh na ai maw? tiah a naa.

18 And he said, Hear ye therefore the word of Jehovah: I saw Jehovah sitting upon his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left;

Mikaiah mah, To pongah Angraeng ih lok hae tahngai ah; Anih loe angmah ih angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnut, anih ih banqoi bantang bangah anghnu van kaminawk to ka hnuk, tiah a thuih pae let.

19 and Jehovah said, Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-Gilead? And one spoke saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner.

Angraeng mah, Israel siangpahrang Ahab mah Ramah-Gilead to tuk moe, sung hanah mi mah maw zoek thai tih? tiah a thuih. To naah maeto mah hmuen maeto kawng to thuih moe, kalah maeto mah kalah hmuen maeto kawng to thuih.

20 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before Jehovah and said, I will entice him. And Jehovah said unto him, Wherewith?

To nathuem ah muithla maeto angzoh, Angraeng hmaa ah angdoet moe, Anih to kai mah ka zoek han, tiah a naa. Angraeng mah anih khaeah, Kawbangmaw na zoek han loe? tiah dueng naah,

21 And he said, I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt entice [him], and also succeed: go forth, and do so.

anih mah, Ka caeh moe, siangpahrang ih tahmaanawk pakha ah amsawnlok kathui muithla baktiah ka oh pae han, tiah a naa. Angraeng mah, Nang mah na zoek thai tih; caeh loe, na thuih ih lok baktih toengah sah ah, tiah a naa.

22 And now, behold, Jehovah has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets; and Jehovah has spoken evil concerning thee.

To pongah khenah, Angraeng mah vaihi amsawnlok kathui muithla to hae tahmaanawk ih pakha ah suek pae boeh; Angraeng mah nang amro thai hanah lokthuih boeh, tiah a naa.

23 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near, and smote Micah upon the cheek, and said, Which way now went the Spirit of Jehovah from me to speak to thee?

To pacoengah Kenaanah capa Zedekiah mah, caeh moe, Mikaiah to mikhmai ah tabaeng; Angraeng ih Muithla mah nang khae lokthuih hanah, naa bang ih loklam hoiah maw kai khae hoiah tacawt? tiah a naa.

24 And Micah said, Behold, thou shalt see on that day when thou shalt go from chamber to chamber to hide thyself.

Mikaiah mah, Khenah, anghawk hanah imthung ah na caeh niah na panoek tih, tiah a naa.

25 And the king of Israel said, Take ye Micah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;

Israel siangpahrang mah, Mikaiah to la oh loe, vangpui ukkung, Amon hoi siangpahrang capa Joash khaeah thak oh, tiah a naa.

26 and ye shall say, Thus says the king: Put this [man] in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace.

Siangpahrang mah, Hae kami hae thongim pakhrah oh, kamong ah kam laem let ai karoek to pacaekthlaek hanah, takaw hoi tui khue ai ah loe, tidoeh paek o hmah, tiah a thuih, tiah thuih paeh, tiah lok a paek.

27 And Micah said, If thou return at all in peace, Jehovah has not spoken by me. And he said, Hearken, O peoples, all of you!

Mikaiah mah, Kamongah nam laem o let tangtang nahaeloe, Angraeng mah kai khaeah lokthui ai ah ni om tih. Kaminawk boih, ka lok hae panoek oh, tiah a naa.

28 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-Gilead.

To pongah Israel siangpahrang hoi Judah siangpahrang Jehosaphat loe Ramoth-Gilead ah caeh hoi tahang.

29 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will enter into the battle; but put thou on thy robes. And the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went into the battle.

Israel siangpahrang mah Jehosaphat khaeah, Kai loe kami kalah ah angsak moe, misa ka tuk han; toe nang loe siangpahrang khukbuen to angkhuk ah loe, om ah, tiah a naa. To pongah Israel siangpahrang loe kami kalah baktiah angsak moe, misatuk hanah nawnto a caeh hoi.

30 And the king of Syria commanded the captains of his chariots saying, Fight neither with small nor great, but with the king of Israel only.

To naah Syria siangpahrang mah, Angmah ih hrangleeng angthueng hoi misatuh angraeng khaeah, Israel siangpahrang khue ai ah loe, kathoeng doeh kalen doeh kalah kaminawk to tuh o hmah, tiah a naa.

31 And it came to pass when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, That is the king of Israel; and they surrounded him to fight; and Jehoshaphat cried out, and Jehovah helped him; and God diverted them from him.

Hrangleeng hoi misatuh angraengnawk mah, Jehosaphat to hnuk o naah, Anih loe Israel siangpahrang mue, tiah poek o. To pongah anih tuk hanah takui o; toe Jehosaphat hang naah, Angraeng mah anih to abomh, Sithaw mah to kaminawk to loklam kalah bangah caehsak king.

32 And it came to pass that when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.

Hrangleeng hoi misatuh angraengnawk mah anih loe Israel siangpahrang na ai ni, tiah panoek o naah, anih to patom ai ah amlaem o let.

33 And a man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the fastenings and the corslet. And he said to the charioteer, Turn thy hand and drive me out of the camp; for I am wounded.

Kami maeto loe palaa to aphongh moe, a kah rumram, to naah Israel siangpahrang ih sum aphaw salakah cop; to naah anih mah angmah ih hrangleeng mongh kami khaeah, Kai loe ahmaa ka caak boeh pongah, angqoi ah loe misa angtukhaih ahmuen hoiah kai amlaem haih lai ah, tiah a naa.

34 And the battle increased that day; and the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the even; and about the time of the going down of the sun he died.

To na niah paroeai misa angtuk o; Israel siangpahrang loe hrangleeng nuiah angthueng moe, duembang khoek to Syria kaminawk to tuk; anih loe niduem tom naah duek.
