1 Kings 22
1 For three years Aram and Israel were not at war.
Kum thung touh thung Siria hoi Isarel rahak vah tarankâtuknae awm hoeh.
2 But in the third year Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, went to visit the king of Israel.
A kum pâthumnae dawk Judah siangpahrang Jehoshaphat teh Isarel siangpahrang koevah a cei.
3 The king of Israel had said to his officers, “Aren't you aware that Ramoth-gilead really belongs to us and yet we haven't done anything to take it back from the king of Aram?”
Isarel siangpahrang ni a sannaw koevah, Gilead ram e Ramoth teh kaie ti a panue nahlangva, bangkongmaw Siria siangpahrang lawm laipalah o awh han, telah ati.
4 So he asked Jehoshaphat, “Will you join me in an attack to recapture Ramoth-gilead?” Jehoshaphat replied to the king of Israel, “You and I are as one, my men and your men are as one, and my horses and your horses are as one.”
Hatdawkvah, ahni ni Jehoshaphat koevah, Ramothgilead teh na tuk khai ngai han na ou, telah atipouh. Jehoshaphat ni Isarel siangpahrang koevah, kai hoi nang, ka taminaw hoi na taminaw teh buet touh lah o awh teh, kaie marang hoi nange marangnaw hai buet touh doeh telah atipouh.
5 Then Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “But first though, please find out what the Lord says.”
Jehoshaphat ni Isarel siangpahrang koevah, BAWIPA e lawk hah ring ei telah atipouh.
6 So the king of Israel brought out the prophets—four hundred of them—and he asked them, “Should I go up and attack Ramoth-gilead, or should I not?” “Yes, go ahead,” they replied, “for the Lord will hand it over to the king.”
Hatdawkvah, Isarel siangpahrang ni profet cumpali tabang a kaw teh, ahnimouh koevah, Ramothgilead tuk hanelah ka cei han maw, ka cet mahoeh maw telah a pacei. Ahnimouh ni cet yawkaw, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni siangpahrang kut dawk na poe han telah ati awh.
7 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Isn't there another prophet of the Lord here that we can ask?”
Jehoshaphat ni hivah BAWIPA Cathut e profet buetbuet touh pouknae hei hanelah awm hoeh toung maw, telah ati.
8 “Yes, there's another man who could consult the Lord,” the king of Israel replied, “but I don't like him because he never prophesies anything good for me—it's always bad! His name is Micaiah, son of Imlah.” “You shouldn't talk like that,” said Jehoshaphat.
Isarel siangpahrang ni Jehoshaphat koevah, BAWIPA koe na kâhet pout hane tami buet touh Imlah capa Mikaiah tie ao. Hateiteh, ahni teh ka hmuhma e lah ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaie kong dawk a thoenae hloilah hawinae koelah banghai dei hoeh telah atipouh.
9 The king of Israel called over one of his officials and told him, “Bring me Micaiah, son of Imlah, right away.”
Hatdawkvah, Isarel siangpahrang ni bawi buet touh a kaw teh, Imlah capa Mikaiah hah karanglah thokhai haw telah atipouh.
10 Dressed in their royal robes, the king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah, were sitting on their thrones at the threshing floor beside the gate of Samaria, with all of the prophets prophesying in front of them.
Isarel siangpahrang hoi Judah siangpahrang Jehoshaphat teh Samaria kalupnae longkha kâennae teng e cangkatinnae yawn dawk, siangpahrang khohna hoi a kamthoup roi teh, a bawitungkhung lengkaleng dawk a tahung roi. Hahoi, profetnaw ni ahnimouh roi e hmalah lawk hah a pâpho awh.
11 One of them, Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, had made himself iron horns. He announced, “This is what the Lord says: ‘With these horns you will gore the Arameans until they're dead!”
Khenanah e capa Zedekiah ni sumki hah a sak pouh teh, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, hete kinaw hoiyah Siria taminaw hah koung kadout lah na deng awh han telah atipouh.
12 All the prophets were prophesying the same thing, saying, “Go ahead, attack Ramoth-gilead; you will be successful, for the Lord will hand it over to the king.”
Hot patetvanlah, profetnaw pueng nihai, Ramothgilead vah luen awh nateh, tâ awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni siangpahrang kut dawk na poe awh han telah a dei pouh awh.
13 The messenger who went to call Micaiah told him, “Look, all the prophets are unanimous in prophesying positively to the king. So please make sure to speak positively like them.”
Mikaih kaw hanlah patoune ni, khenhaw! profetnaw ni kâvan e lawk buet touh hah a kuet awh teh, kahawi e lah dueng siangpahrang koevah, lawk rip a dei awh toe. Ahnimouh ni a dei awh e patetvanlah, nang ni hai dei van leih, kahawi e lah dei van haw telah atipouh.
14 But Micaiah replied, “As the Lord lives, I can only say what my God tells me.”
Mikaiah ni BAWIPA a hring e patetlah BAWIPA ni kai koe a dei e doeh kai ni teh ka dei tih telah atipouh.
15 When he came before the king, the king asked him, “Should we go up and attack Ramoth-gilead, or should we not?” “Yes, go ahead and be victorious,” Micaiah replied, “for the Lord will give it into the king's hand.”
Siangpahrang koe a pha toteh, siangpahrang ni Ramothgilead tuk hanlah ka cei han maw, ka cet mahoeh maw telah a pacei. Ahni ni siangpahrang koevah, cet nateh tâ, bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni siangpahrang kut dawk na poe han telah atipouh.
16 But the king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear to tell me only the truth in the name of the Lord?”
Siangpahrang ni lawkkatang laipalah kai oe BAWIPA min lahoi dei hoeh hanlah avai nâyittouh maw lawk na kam sak han, telah ati.
17 So Micaiah answered, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains like sheep without a shepherd. The Lord said, ‘These people have no master; let each of them go home in peace.’”
Ahni ni, Isarelnaw pueng teh khoumkung ka tawn hoeh e tu patetlah mon dawk koung a kâkahei awh e hah ka hmu. BAWIPA ni hete taminaw ni kahrawikung tawn awh hoeh toe. Amae im dawk lengkaleng lungmawngcalah ban awh naseh, telah ati atipouh.
18 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Didn't I tell you he never prophesies anything good for me, only bad?”
Isarel siangpahrang ni Jehoshaphat koevah, kaie kong dawk thoenae hloilah kahawi e koelah banghai dei mahoeh telah yo ka dei toe telah atipouh.
19 Micaiah went on to say, “So listen to what the Lord says. I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, surrounded by the whole army of heaven standing to his right and to his left.
Hatdawkvah, Mikaiah ni, BAWIPA e lawk heh thai haw. BAWIPA teh a bawitungkhung dawk kalvan vah a tahung teh kalvantaminaw pueng avoilah aranglah a kangdue e ka hmu.
20 The Lord asked, ‘Who will trick Ahab, king of Israel, into attacking Ramoth-gilead so he will be killed there?’ One said this, another said that, and another said something else.
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni Ahab heh Ramothgilead vah a luen vaiteh taran kut dawk due hanlah apinimaw a tacuek telah atipouh. Buet touh ni hettelah a dei teh, alouke ni hottelah ati.
21 Finally a spirit came and approached the Lord and said, ‘I will trick him.’
Hatdawkvah, muitha buet touh a tâco teh, BAWIPA hmalah a kangdue. Kai ni ka tacuek han telah atipouh.
22 ‘How are you going to do that?’ the Lord asked. ‘I will go and be a lying spirit and make all his prophets tell lies,’ the spirit replied. ‘That will work,’ the Lord responded. ‘Go and do it.’
BAWIPA ni ahni koevah, bangtelamaw telah atipouh. Ahni ni ka cei vaiteh a profetnaw pueng e pahni dawk laithoe muitha lah ka o han telah atipouh. Hahoi, BAWIPA ni, na tacuek pawiteh na tacuek thai han doeh. Cet nateh hottelah sak telah atipouh.
23 As you see, the Lord has put a lying spirit into these prophets of yours, and the Lord has pronounced your death sentence.”
Hatdawkvah, khenhaw! BAWIPA ni hete na profetnaw pueng e a pahni dawk laithoe muitha hah a ta teh, BAWIPA ni nangmouh rawk nahane kong hah a dei toe telah atipouh.
24 Then Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, went and slapped Micaiah in the face, and demanded, “Which way did the Spirit of the Lord go when he left me to speak to you?”
Hottelah Kenaanah e capa Zedekiah ni rek a hnai teh, Mikaiah e tamboung dawk a tambei. Nang koe lawk dei hanelah BAWIPA ni a patoun e muitha ni na lae lam dawk hoi maw kai koe hoi a cei telah atipouh.
25 “You'll soon find out when you try and find some secret place to hide!” Micaiah replied.
Mikaiah ni, khenhaw! kâhro hanlah imrakhan thung hoi na kâen hnin vah na panue han telah atipouh.
26 The king of Israel ordered, “Place Micaiah under arrest and take him back to Amon the governor of the city and to my son Joash.
Hat toteh, Isarel siangpahrang ni, Mikaiah heh khopui kaukkung Ammon e capa Joash koevah cetkhai awh leih.
27 Tell them these are the king's instructions: ‘Put this man in jail. Give him only bread and water until my safe return.’”
Hahoi, hete tami heh thongim pabawt awh nateh, roumnae hoi ka ban hoehroukrak, rawca hoi tui yitca dueng poe awh tet pouh atipouh.
28 “If you do in fact return safely then the Lord has not spoken through me,” Micaiah declared. “Pay attention everyone to all I've said!”
Hateiteh, Mikhaiah ni, karoumcalah na ban awh pawiteh, BAWIPA ni kai hno lahoi lawk dei hoeh tinae lah ao han telah atipouh. Ama ni, nangmanaw pueng ni kahawicalah pâkuem awh telah letlang ati.
29 The king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, went to attack Ramoth-gilead.
Hottelah Isarel siangpahrang hoi Judah siangpahrang Jehoshaphat teh Ramothgilead vah a takhang roi.
30 The king of Israel told Jehoshaphat, “When I go into battle I will be in disguise, but you should wear your royal robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.
Isarel siangpahrang ni Jehoshaphat koevah, ka mei kâthung vaiteh, tarantuknae koe ka cei van han. Nang teh siangpahrang khohna hah kho telah atipouh. Hatdawkvah, Isarel siangpahrang teh a mei a kâthung teh tarantuknae koe a cei.
31 The king of Aram had already given these orders to his chariot commanders: “Head straight for the king of Israel alone. Don't fight with anyone else, whoever they are.”
Siria siangpahrang ni leng kâcuinaw 32 touh koevah, Isarel siangpahrang laipalah, tami kathoeng kalen apihai tuk awh hanh telah kâ a poe.
32 So when the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they shouted, “This must be the king of Israel!” So they turned to attack him, but when Jehoshaphat called out for help,
Leng kaukkungnaw ni Jehoshaphat a hmu awh toteh, hetteh Isarel siangpahrang roeroe doeh, telah ati awh. Hatdawkvah, ahni tuk hanelah a kamlang awh dawkvah, Jehoshaphat teh a hram.
33 the chariot commanders saw it wasn't the king of Israel and stopped chasing him.
Hateiteh, leng kâcuinaw ni Isarel siangpahrang nahoeh tie a panue awh toteh, ahni pâleinae koehoi a ban takhai awh.
34 However, an enemy archer shot an arrow at random, hitting the king of Israel between the joints of his armor by his breastplate. The king told his charioteer, “Turn around and get me out of the fight, because I've been wounded!”
Tami buet touh ni noe laipalah, samtang a pathui boteh, Isarel siangpahrang e saiphei rahak vah pala teh a kâen dawkvah, ahni ni leng ka mawng koevah, kamlang nateh, tarankâtuknae hmuen koehoi na tâcawtkhai leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a hmâ ka ca toe telah atipouh.
35 The battle lasted all day. The king of Israel was propped up in his chariot to face the Arameans, but in the evening he died. The blood had poured out of his wound onto the floor of the chariot.
Hote hnin dawk tarantuknae teh a patawpoung teh siangpahrang teh a leng van vah Sirianaw e hmuen dawk a kangdue sak awh teh, tangmin lah a due. A hmâ dawk hoi leng van vah a thi teh a kui.
36 At sunset, a shout went out from the lines: “Retreat! Every man back to his town, every man back to his own country!”
Kanî aloum tawmlei nah ransanaw thung dawk hoi tami pueng amae kho tangkuem dawk, tami pueng mae ram lah koung ban awh naseh telah thouk a oung awh.
37 So the king died. He was taken back to Samaria where they buried him.
Siangpahrang teh hottelah a due. Samaria vah a kâenkhai awh teh, hawvah siangpahrang teh a pakawp awh.
38 They washed his chariot at a pool in Samaria where the prostitutes came to bathe, and dogs licked up his blood, just as the Lord had said.
Samaria tuikamuem rai lah leng hah a pâsu awh teh, BAWIPA ni a dei e lawk patetlah kâyawtnaw tui kamhluknae koe uinaw ni a thi hah a palem.
39 The rest of what happened in Ahab's reign, all that he did, the ivory palace he constructed and all the cities he built are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Hottelah Ahab kâroenae thung dawk hoi kacawiraenaw hoi a sak e naw pueng hoi kasaino hoi a sak e im hoi a sak e khonaw pueng hah Isarel siangpahrangnaw setouknae cauk dawk thut lah awm hoehnamaw.
40 Ahab died and his son Ahaziah succeeded him as king.
Hottelah, Ahab teh a na mintoenaw koevah, a i teh a capa Ahaziah ni a yueng lah a bawi
41 Jehoshaphat, son of Asa, became king of Judah in the fourth year of the reign of Ahab, king of Israel.
Hahoi Isarel siangpahrang Ahab a bawinae a kum pali nah Asa capa Jehoshaphat teh Judah taminaw lathueng vah siangpahrang lah ao.
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for twenty-five years. His mother's name was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.
Jehoshaphat teh siangpahrang lah a tawk nah a kum 35 touh a pha. Jerusalem kho vah, a kum 25 touh a uk. A manu min teh Azubah, ahni teh Shilhi canu doeh.
43 He followed all the ways of his father; he did not depart from them, and he did what was right in the Lord's sight. However, the high places were not removed and the people still sacrificed and presented offerings there.
A na pa Asa ni a dawn e lamthung pueng hah a dawn van teh, phen laipalah, BAWIPA e mithmu vah hnokahawi a sak. Hateiteh, hmuenrasang teh puen awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hmuenrasang dawk taminaw ni a thueng awh teh, hmuitui hah hmai a sawi awh rah.
44 Jehoshaphat also made peace with the king of Israel.
Hahoi Jehoshaphat ni Isarel siangpahrang hoi roumnae a sak.
45 The rest of what happened in Jehoshaphat's reign, his great achievements and the wars he fought are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Hottelah, Jehoshaphat kâroenae thung dawk hoi kacawirae hnonaw hoi a hno sakthainae a kamnue saknae hoi taran a tuknae kongnaw hah Judah siangpahrangnaw setouknae cauk dawk thut lah awm hoehnamaw.
46 He expelled from the land any cult prostitutes who were left from the time of his father Asa.
Hahoi, a na pa Asa a hring nah napuitongpanaw hah a ram dawk hoi koung a pâlei.
47 (At that time there was no king in Edom; only a deputy who served as king.)
Edom ram dawk siangpahrang ao hoeh dawkvah, siangpahrang a yueng lah kaawm e ni a uk awh.
48 Jehoshaphat built sea-going ships to go to Ophir for gold, but they went because they were wrecked at Ezion-geber.
Jehoshaphat ni Ophir ram dawk a patoun teh, sui phu hanelah Tarshish long hah a sak. Hateiteh, cet awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Eziongeber vah long hah a rawk.
49 During that time Ahaziah, son of Ahab, asked Jehoshaphat, “Let my men sail with your men,” but Jehoshaphat refused.
Ahab capa Ahaziah ni Jehoshaphat koevah, ka taminaw heh na taminaw hoi long dawk hoi rei cet awh naseh telah ati. Hatei Jehoshaphat ni ngai hoeh.
50 Jehoshaphat died and was buried with his forefathers in the City of David. His son Jehoram succeeded him as king.
Jehoshaphat teh a na mintoenaw koe a i teh a na mintoenaw koe, a na min Devit e khopui dawk a pakawp awh. Hahoi a capa Jehoram ni a yueng lah a uk.
51 Ahaziah, son of Ahab, became king of Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel for two years.
Judah siangpahrang Jehoshaphat siangpahrang a tawknae kum 17 navah, Ahab capa Ahaziah teh Samaria khovah, Isarelnaw e siangpahrang lah ao. Isarel hah kum 2 touh a uk.
52 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and followed the ways of his father and mother, and of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin.
BAWIPA hmaitung vah thoenae a sak teh, a manu hoi a na pa ni dawn e lamthung hoi Nebat capa Jeroboam, Isarelnaw ka yonsakkung ni dawn e lamthung hai a dawn.
53 He served Baal and worshiped him, and angered the Lord, the God of Israel, just as his father had.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a na pa ni a sak e pueng a sak teh, Baal e thaw hah a tawk teh, a bawk dawkvah, Isarel BAWIPA Cathut a lungkhuek sak.
