< 1 Kings 22 >

1 And they continued three years without war between Aram and Israel.
Waggaa sadiif Sooriyaa fi Israaʼel gidduu waraanni tokko iyyuu hin turre.
2 And it came to pass in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
Waggaa sadaffaa keessa garuu Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa mooticha Israaʼel arguuf gad buʼe.
3 And the king of Israel said unto his servants: 'Know ye that Ramoth-gilead is ours, and we are still, and take it not out of the hand of the king of Aram?'
Mootiin Israaʼel qondaaltota isaatiin, “Isin akka Raamooti Giliʼaad biyya keenya taatee nu garuu mootii Sooriyaa irraa ishee deebifachuuf waan tokko illee hojjechuutti hin jirre hin beektanii?” jedhe.
4 And he said unto Jehoshaphat: 'Wilt thou go with me to battle to Ramoth-gilead?' And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel: 'I am as thou art, my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses.'
Kanaafuu inni, “Ati Raamooti Giliʼaadin loluuf na wajjin ni baataa?” jedhee Yehooshaafaaxin gaafate. Yehooshaafaaxis, “Ani akkuma kee ti; sabni koo akkuma saba keetii ti; fardeen koos akkuma fardeen keetii ti” jedhee mooticha Israaʼeliif deebise.
5 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel: 'Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD today.'
Yehooshaafaax garuu mootii Israaʼeliin, “Duraan dursii gorsa Waaqayyoo gaafadhu” jedhe.
6 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said unto them: 'Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear?' And they said: 'Go up; for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.'
Kanaafuu Mootichi Israaʼel raajota gara dhibba afur walitti qabee, “Ani Raamooti Giliʼaadin loluudhaaf baʼu moo dhiisu?” jedhee ni gaafate. Isaanis, “Dhaqi; Gooftaan dabarsee harka mootichaatti ishee kennaatii” jedhanii deebisaniif.
7 But Jehoshaphat said: 'Is there not here besides a prophet of the LORD, that we might inquire of him?'
Yehooshaafaax immoo, “Akka nu waa isa gaafannuuf raajiin Waaqayyoo tokko iyyuu as hin jiruu?” jedhee gaafate.
8 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat: 'There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him; for he doth not prophesy good concerning me, but evil.' And Jehoshaphat said: 'Let not the king say so.'
Mootiin Israaʼel immoo Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Amma illee namichi nu karaa isaatiin Waaqayyoon waa gaafachuu dandeenyu tokko jira; garuu sababii inni yeroo hunda waaʼee koo waan hamaa malee waan gaarii raajii hin dubbanneef ani isa nan jibba. Innis Miikaayaa ilma Yimlaa ti” jedhe. Yehooshaafaax immoo deebisee, “Mootichi akkas jechuu hin qabu” jedheen.
9 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said: 'Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imlah.'
Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼel qondaaltota isaa keessaa nama tokko waamee, “Dhaqiitii Miikaayaa ilma Yimlaa sana dafii fidi” jedheen.
10 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah sat each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, in a threshing-floor, at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
Mootichi Israaʼelii fi Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa uffata isaanii kan mootummaa uffatanii balbala Samaariyaa seensisu bira oobdii keessa teessoo isaanii irra tataaʼanii raajonni hundi immoo fuula isaanii duratti raajii dubbachaa turan.
11 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron, and said: 'Thus saith the LORD: With these shalt thou gore the Arameans, until they be consumed.'
Kana irratti Zedeqiyaan ilmi Keniʼaanaa gaanfawwan sibiilaa tolchee, “Waaqayyo, ‘Ati hamma isaan dhumanitti gaanfawwan kanneeniin warra Sooriyaa ni wawwaraanta’ jedha” jedhee labse.
12 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying: 'Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper; for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.'
Raajonni kaan hundinuus waanuma kana raajan. Isaanis, “Waaqayyo dabarsee harka mootichaatti ishee kennaatii, Raamooti Giliʼaadin lolii moʼadhu” jedhan.
13 And the messenger that went to call Micaiah spoke unto him, saying: 'Behold now, the words of the prophets declare good unto the king with one mouth, let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word of one of them, and speak thou good.'
Ergamaan Miikaayaa waamuu dhaqe sunis, “Kunoo raajonni kaan utuu gargar hin gorin milkaaʼuu mootichaaf himaa jiru. Maaloo dubbiin kees dubbii isaaniitiin tokko akka taʼuuf atis waan tolaa dubbadhu” jedheen.
14 And Micaiah said: 'As the LORD liveth, what the LORD saith unto me, that will I speak.'
Miikaayaan garuu deebisee, “Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, ani waanuma Waaqni natti himu qofan isatti hima” jedhe.
15 And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him: 'Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we forbear?' And he answered him: 'Go up, and prosper; and the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.'
Yommuu inni achi gaʼettis mootichi, “Yaa Miikaayaa, nu Raamooti Giliʼaaditti duullu moo dhiisnu?” jedhee isa gaafate. Miikiyaasis, “Waaqayyo dabarsee harka mootichaatti ishee ni kennaatii waraanii moʼadhu” jedhee deebise.
16 And the king said unto him: 'How many times shall I adjure thee that thou speak unto me nothing but the truth in the name of the LORD?'
Mootichi immoo, “Ani yeroo hammamin akka ati dhugaa malee waan tokko illee natti hin himne maqaa Waaqayyootiin si kakachiisa?” jedheen.
17 And he said: 'I saw all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd; and the LORD said: These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.'
Kana irratti Miikaayaan akkana jedhee deebise; “Ani Israaʼeloota hunda akkuma hoolota tiksee hin qabneetti gaara irratti bittinnaaʼan nan arge. Waaqayyos, ‘Sabni kun gooftaa hin qabu. Tokkoon tokkoon isaanii nagaadhaan mana isaaniitti haa deebiʼan.’”
18 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat: 'Did I not tell thee that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?'
Mootiin Israaʼelis Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Ani akka inni waaʼee koo waan hamaa malee waan gaarii tokko iyyuu hin raajne sitti hin himnee?” jedhe.
19 And he said: 'Therefore hear thou the word of the LORD. I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right hand and on his left.
Miikiyaas ittuma fufee akkana jedhe; “Kanaafuu ati dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼi: Ani utuu Waaqayyo teessoo isaa irra taaʼee ergamoonni samii hundis mirgaa fi bitaa isaatiin naannoo isaa dhadhaabatanuu nan arge.
20 And the LORD said: Who shall entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead. And one said: On this manner; and another said: On that manner.
Waaqayyos, ‘Eenyutu akka inni dhaqee Raamooti Giliʼaadin lolee achitti duʼuuf Ahaabin gowwoomsa?’ jedhe. “Inni tokko waan tokko jedha; inni kaan immoo waan biraa jedha.
21 And there came forth the spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said: I will entice him.
Dhuma irratti hafuurri tokko dhufee fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhaabatee, ‘Anatu isa gowwoomsa’ jedhe.
22 And the LORD said unto him: Wherewith? 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 shalt prevail also; go forth, and do so.
“Waaqayyos, ‘Karaa kamiin isa gowwoomsita?’ jedhee gaafate. “Innis, ‘Ani dhaqee afaan raajota isaa hunda keessatti hafuura sobaa nan taʼa’ jedhe. “Waaqayyos, ‘Dhaqiitii isa dogoggorsi; ni milkooftaatii’ isaan jedheen.
23 Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets; and the LORD hath spoken evil concerning thee.'
“Kanaafuu Waaqayyo amma afaan raajota kee kanneen hundaa keessa hafuura sobaa kaaʼeera. Waaqayyo badiisa sitti ajajeera.”
24 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah on the check, and said: 'Which way went the spirit of the LORD from me to speak unto thee?'
Kana irratti Zedeqiyaan ilmi Keniʼaanaa ol baʼee Miikaayaa fuula keessa kabalee, “Hafuurri Waaqayyoo yommuu sitti dubbachuuf na biraa baʼetti karaa kam deeme?” jedhee gaafate.
25 And Micaiah said: 'Behold, thou shalt see on that day, when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.'
Miikaayaanis, “Ati gaafa dhokachuuf jettee gara kutaa manaa kan gara keessaatti ol galtutti argita” jedhee deebiseef.
26 And the king of Israel said: 'Take Micaiah, and carry him back unto Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;
Kana irratti mootiin Israaʼel akkana jedhee ajaje; “Miikaayaa fuudhaatii gara Aamoon bulchaa magaalaa fi gara Yooʼaash ilma mootichaatti geessaatii,
27 and say: Thus saith the king: Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with scant bread and with scant water, until I come in peace.'
‘Mootichi akkana jedha: Hamma ani nagaan deebiʼutti namicha kana mana hidhaa keessa buusaa; buddeenaa fi bishaan malees homaa hin kenninaafii’ jedhaan.”
28 And Micaiah said: 'If thou return at all in peace, the LORD hath not spoken by me.' And he said: 'Hear, ye peoples, all of you.'
Miikaayaan immoo, “Yoo ati nagaan deebite, Waaqayyo karaa kootiin hin dubbanne” jedheen. Ittuma fufees, “Yaa saboota, isin hundi dubbii koo akeekkadhaa!” jedhe.
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼelii fi Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa Raamooti Giliʼaaditti ol baʼan.
30 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat: 'I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but put thou on thy robes.' And the king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
Mootiin Israaʼel Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Ani eenyummaa koo dhokfadheen lola seena; ati garuu uffata mootummaa uffadhu” jedhe. Kanaafuu mootiin Israaʼel eenyummaa ofii isaa dhokfatee lola seene.
31 Now the king of Aram had commanded the thirty and two captains of his chariots, saying: 'Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king of Israel.'
Yeroo kanatti mootiin Sooriyaa ajajjoota gaariiwwan isaa soddomii lamaaniin, “Mootii Israaʼelitti malee xinnaas taʼu guddaatti, nama tokkottuu lola hin kaasinaa” jedhee ajaje.
32 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said: 'Surely it is the king of Israel'; and they turned aside to fight against him; and Jehoshaphat cried out.
Ajajjoonni gaariiwwanii yommuu Yehooshaafaaxin arganitti, “Dhugumaan kun mootii Israaʼel” jedhanii yaadan. Kanaafuu isa rukutuuf itti garagalan; garuu yommuu Yehooshaafaax guddisee iyyetti,
33 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
ajajjoonni gaariiwwaniis akka inni mootii Israaʼel hin taʼin arganii isa ariʼuu dhiisan.
34 And a certain man drew his bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the lower armour and the breastplate; wherefore he said unto the driver of his chariot: 'Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the host; for I am sore wounded.'
Garuu namichi tokko xiyya ofii isaa darbatee akkuma tasaa uffata isaa kan sibiilaa gidduudhaan mooticha Israaʼel ni waraane. Mootichis ooftuu gaarii isaatiin, “Gaarii naannessiitii lola keessaa na baasi; ani madaaʼeeraatii” jedhe.
35 And the battle increased that day; and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Arameans, and died at even; and the blood ran out of the wound into the bottom of the chariot.
Lolli sunis guyyaa guutuu ittuma cimee oole; mootichis ol qabamee fuula isaa gara warra Sooriyaatti deebifatee gaarii isaa keessa oole. Madaa isaa keessaas dhiigni yaaʼee gaarii keessa lolaʼe; innis galgaluma sana duʼe.
36 And there went a cry throughout the host about the going down of the sun, saying: 'Every man to his city, and every man to his country.'
Akkuma aduun dhiiteen iyyi, “Tokkoon tokkoon namaa gara magaalaa ofii isaatti; tokkoon tokkoon namaa gara biyya ofii isaatti!” jedhu tokko dhagaʼame.
37 So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
Kanaafuu mootichi duunaan Samaariyaatti geeffame; isaanis achitti isa awwaalan.
38 And they washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood; the harlots also washed themselves there; according unto the word of the LORD which He spoke.
Isaanis haroo Samaariyaa keessaa kan sagaagaltoonni itti dhiqachaa turan tokko keessatti gaarii sana dhiqan; akkuma dubbiin Waaqayyoo jedhee ture sana saroonni dhiiga isaa arraaban.
39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Wantoonni bara mootummaa Ahaab keessa hojjetaman biraa, wantoota inni hojjete hunda dabalatee, masaraa mootummaa inni ijaaree ilka arbaatiin bareeche sun, magaalaawwan inni dallaa dhagaa itti ijaare kitaaba seenaa mootota Israaʼel keessatti barreeffamaniiru mitii?
40 So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.
Ahaabis abbootii isaa wajjin boqote. Ilmi isaa Ahaaziyaa iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
41 And Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
Yehooshaafaax ilmi Aasaa, bara mootummaa Ahaab mooticha Israaʼel keessa waggaa afuraffaatti mootii Yihuudaa taʼe.
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
Yehooshaafaax yeroo mootii taʼetti nama umuriin isaa waggaa soddomii shan ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa digdamii shan ni bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Azuubaa ture; isheenis intala Shilhii turte.
43 And he walked in all the way of Asa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of the LORD; howbeit the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and offered in the high places.
Innis waan hundumaan karuma abbaa isaa Aasaa irra deeme malee isa irraa hin jalʼanne; fuula Waaqayyoo durattis waan qajeelaa hojjete. Taʼus iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa hin diigamne ture; namoonnis ittuma fufanii achitti aarsaa dhiʼeessaa, ixaanas aarsaa turan.
44 And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
Yehooshaafaaxis mootii Israaʼel wajjin nagaan jiraata ture.
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he showed, and how he warred, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Wantoonni bara mootummaa Yehooshaafaax keessa hojjetaman kaan, jabinni inni argisiisee fi haalli inni itti lolaa ture kitaaba seenaa mootota Yihuudaa keessatti barreeffamaniiru mitii?
46 And the remnant of the sodomites that remained in the days of his father Asa, he put away out of the land.
Inni manneen sagadaa dhiirota sagaagalanii kanneen bara mootummaa abbaa isaa Aasaa keessa turan iyyuu biyyattii keessaa ni balleesse.
47 And there was no king in Edom: a deputy was king.
Yeroo sanatti Edoom keessa mootiin tokko iyyuu hin jiru ture; itti aanaa mootiitu biyya bulchaa ture.
48 Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold; but they went not; for the ships were broken at Ezion-geber.
Yehooshaafaaxis warqee barbaacha Oofiir dhaquuf jedhee dooniiwwan tolfate; dooniiwwan sun garuu sababii Eziyoon Geberitti caccabaniif achi dhaquu hin dandeenye.
49 Then said Ahaziah the son of Ahab unto Jehoshaphat: 'Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships.' But Jehoshaphat would not.
Yeroo sana Ahaaziyaa ilmi Ahaab Yehooshaafaaxiin, “Mee namoonni koo namoota kee wajjin dooniin haa deeman” jedhe; Yehooshaafaax garuu ni dide.
50 And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father; and Jehoram his son reigned in his stead.
Ergasii Yehooshaafaax abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee isaanuma biratti magaalaa abbaa isaa magaalaa Daawit keessatti awwaalame. Yehooraam ilmi isaas iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
51 Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel.
Ahaaziyaan ilmi Ahaab bara Yehooshaafaax mooticha Yihuudaa keessa waggaa kudha torbaffaatti Samaariyaa keessatti mootii Israaʼel taʼe; innis waggaa lama Israaʼelin bulche.
52 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherein he made Israel to sin.
Inni karaa abbaa isaatii fi haadha isaa irra akkasumas karaa Yerobiʼaam ilma Nebaat kan Israaʼelin cubbuu hojjechiise sanaa irra deemuudhaan fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjete.
53 And he served Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the LORD, the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
Innis akkuma abbaan isaa godhe sana Baʼaalin tajaajiluu fi waaqeffachuudhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel dheekkamsaaf kakaase.
