1 Kings 20
1 AND Ben-hadad the king of Syria gathered all his host together: and there were thirty and two kings with him, and horses, and chariots: and he went up and besieged Samaria, and warred against it.
Nanontoñe i hene valobohò’ey amy zao t’i Benehadade mpanjaka’ i Arame, reketse mpanjaka telopolo-ro’amby naho soavala vaho sarete le nionjomb’eo nañarikatoke i Somerone hialia’e,
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab king of Israel into the city, and said unto him, Thus saith Ben-hadad,
le nampihitrife’e mb’amy Akabe mpanjaka’ Israele an-drova ao,
3 Thy silver and thy gold is mine; thy wives also and thy children, even the goodliest, are mine.
ty nampanoa’e ty hoe: Hoe t’i Benehadade: Ahy o volafoty naho volamena’oo; o vali’oo vaho o ana’oo, ahy ze hene soa ama’e.
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.
Nanoiñe aze ty mpanjaka’ Israele nanao ty hoe: Ie i sinaontsi’oy, ry talèko mpanjaka, azo iraho naho ze hene hanañako.
5 And the messengers came again, and said, Thus speaketh Ben-hadad, saying, Although I have sent unto thee, saying, Thou shalt deliver me thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy children;
Nibalike mb’eo indraike o ìrakeo, nanao ty hoe: Zao ty asa’ i Benehadade: Toe nahitriko ama’o ty hoe: Haseseo amako o volafoti’oo, naho o volamena’oo naho o vali’oo vaho o ana’oo;
6 Yet I will send my servants unto thee to morrow about this time, and they shall search thine house, and the houses of thy servants; and it shall be, that whatsoever is pleasant in thine eyes, they shall put it in their hand, and take it away.
fa hiraheko mb’ ama’o mb’eo hamaray ami’ty andro hoe zao o mpitorokoo, le ho kodebe’ iereo ty anjomba’o, naho o anjombam-pitoro’oo; le ze soa am-pihaino’o ty hapo’ iareo am-pità’e vaho hendese’e añe.
7 Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Mark, I pray you, and see how this man seeketh mischief: for he sent unto me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I denied him not.
Aa le songa kinoi’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley o roandria’ i taneio, nanao ty hoe: Ehe, isaho naho mahaoniña te midoha raha indatiy; fa pinai’e amako o valikoo naho o anakoo naho o volafotikoo naho o volamenakoo, le tsy niraràko.
8 And all the elders and all the people said unto him, Hearken not unto him, nor consent.
Le hoe o androanavio naho ze hene ondaty ama’e, Ko mañaoñe aze, vaho ko miantoke.
9 Wherefore he said unto 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 may not do. And the messengers departed, and brought him word again.
Aa le hoe re amy ìra’ i Benehadade rey: Saontsio ty hoe i talèko mpanjakay: Hene hanoeko o nañiraha’o amy mpitoro’oy am-baloha’eo; fe tsy hanoeko o raha zao. Aa le nienga o ìrakeo, ninday i entañe zay.
10 And Ben-hadad sent unto him, and said, The gods do so unto me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for handfuls for all the people that follow me.
Le hoe ty nañiraha’ i Benehadade ama’e: Ee te hanoe’ o ‘ndrahareo amako ndra mandikoatse naho mahaatsam-pità’ ze hene ondaty mañorik’ ahikoo ty debo’ i Somerone.
11 And the king of Israel answered and said, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself as he that putteth it off.
Le hoe ty natoi’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley: Taroño ama’e: Ee te tsy hirengevoke manahake ty mañafake fikalañe ty mañombe aze.
12 And it came to pass, when Ben-hadad heard this message, as he was drinking, he and the kings in the pavilions, that he said unto his servants, Set yourselves in array. And they set themselves in array against the city.
Ie nahajanjiñe izay t’i Benehadade, ie ninon-toake miharo amy mpanjaka rey an-kibohotse ao, le hoe re amo mpitoro’eo, Midadaña! Le nijadoñe niatreatre i rovay iereo.
13 And, behold, there came a prophet unto Ahab king of Israel, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Hast thou seen all this great multitude? behold, I will deliver it into thine hand this day; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
Niheo amy Akabe mpanjaka amy zao ty mpitoky, nanao ty hoe: Hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà, Fa niisa’o hao o valobohòke miheneheneo? Ingo, hatoloko am-pità’o te anito, soa te ho fohi’o te Izaho Iehovà.
14 And Ahab said, By whom? And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Even by the young men of the princes of the provinces. Then he said, Who shall order the battle? And he answered, Thou.
Le hoe t’i Akabe: Añama’ ia? le hoe re: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, o ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo. Le hoe re: Ia ty hamototse i hotakotakey: le hoe ty natoi’e: Ihe.
15 Then he numbered the young men of the princes of the provinces, and they were two hundred and thirty two: and after them he numbered all the people, even all the children of Israel, being seven thousand.
Aa le tinendre’e ty ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo: roanjato-tsi-telopolo-ro’amby iereo; ie amy zao tinendre’e ka o fonga ondatio, ze hene ana’ Israele: fito-arivo.
16 And they went out at noon. But Ben-hadad was drinking himself drunk in the pavilions, he and the kings, the thirty and two kings that helped him.
Niavotse an-tsingilingilieñe iereo. Fe ninoñe an-kibohotse ao t’i Benehadade himamoa’e, ie naho o mpanjakao, i mpanjaka telopolo-ro’ amby mpañolotse aze rey.
17 And the young men 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.
Niavotse mb’eo valoha’e i ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo rey; aa le nañirake t’i Benehadade, le nitaliliañe ty hoe: Ey ondaty miakatse i Someroneo.
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.
Le hoe re, He niakatse an-kanintsiñe iereo, endeso veloñe; ke niakatse hifandrapake, endeso veloñe.
19 So these young men of the princes of the provinces came out of the city, and the army which followed them.
Aa le niavotse i rovay iereo, i ajalahi’ o mpifehem-pokotaneo rey naho nañorike iareo o lahindefoñeo.
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 an horse with the horsemen.
Songa zinevo’ iareo ty ondati’e; vaho nitriban-day o nte-Arameo, le nihoridañe’ Israele; nipoliotse an-tsoavala reke-piningi-tsoavala t’i Benehadade mpanjaka’ i Arame.
21 And the king of Israel went out, and smote the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.
Niavotse amy zao i mpanjaka’ Israeley le zinama’e o soavala-aman-tsareteo vaho zinevo’e o nte-Arameo am-pizamanam-bey.
22 And the prophet came to the king of Israel, and said unto him, Go, strengthen thyself, and mark, and see what thou doest: for at the return of the year the king of Syria will come up against thee.
Nimb’amy mpanjaka’ Israeley i mpitokiy, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Akia, mihaozara, le tsikarato naho hotsohotso o hanoe’oo; amy te hionjo-mb’etoa hiatreatre azo ty mpanjaka’ i Arame ami’ty fibalihan-taoñe.
23 And the servants of the king of Syria said unto him, Their gods are gods of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we; but let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they.
Fa nanao ty hoe amy mpanjaka’ i Aramey o mpitoro’eo: Andrianañahare’ o haboañeo t’i Andrianañahare’ iareo; aa le naozatse te aman-tika iereo; antao arè hialy ama’e amontoñe añe; fa toe haozatse te am’ iereo tika.
24 And do this thing, Take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put captains in their rooms:
Le ano zao: Songa asitaho an-toe’e o mpanjakao vaho solò mpifeleke ty an-toe’ iareo;
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 in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they. And he hearkened unto their voice, and did so.
mamolilia valobohòke manahake i valobohòke nimotso ama’oy, soavala hasolo soavala, sarete hasolo sarete; hifandrapak’ am’ iereo amontoñe ao tika vaho toe ho fatratse te ama’e. Hinao’e ty feo’ iareo le nanoe’e.
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.
Aa ie nihereñe ty taoñe le natonto’ i Benehadade o nte-Arameo, vaho nionjomb’e Afeke mb’eo hialy am’ Israele.
27 And the children of Israel were numbered, and were all present, and went against them: and the children of Israel pitched before them like two little flocks of kids; but the Syrians filled the country.
Tinendre amy zao o ana’ Israeleo naho nivatieñe vaho niavotse niatrek’ ama’e; le nitobe aolo’ iereo o ana’ Israeleo hoe mpirai-liam-bik’ ose roe kedekedeke, ie nañatseke i taney o nte-Arameo.
28 And there came a man of God, and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the Lord, Because the Syrians have said, The Lord is God of the hills, but he is not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Nitotoke mb’eo amy zao ty ‘ndatin’ Añahare ninday tsara amy mpanjaka’ Israeley, ami’ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Kanao nanao ty hoe o nte-Arameo: Andrianañahare’ o haboañeo t’Iehovà, fa tsy Andrianañahare’ o vavataneo; le fonga hatoloko am-pità’o i valobohòke bey heneheney vaho ho fohi’o te Izaho Iehovà.
29 And they pitched one over against the other seven days. And so it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined: and the children of Israel slew of the Syrians an hundred thousand footmen in one day.
Aa le nitobe nifañatreke fito andro iereo. Ie amy andro faha-fitoy le nionjoñe ty hotakotake; vaho zinevo’ o ana’ Israeleo ami’ty andro raike ty rai-hetse amo nte-Arame am-pandiao.
30 But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and there a wall fell upon twenty and seven thousand of the men that were left. And Ben-hadad fled, and came into the city, into an inner chamber.
Le nitriban-day mb’e Afeke añe o ila’eo, mb’ an-drova ao; fe nikorovok’ am’ ondaty ro’ ale-tsi-fito-arivo sehanga’eo i kijoliy. Aa le nipolititse mb’ amy rovay t’i Benehadade, ami’ty efe’e am-po’e ao.
31 And his servants said unto 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: peradventure he will save thy life.
Le hoe o mpitoro’eo ama’e: Mahaoniña, fa tsinano’ay te mpanjaka mpitretrè o mpanjakan’ anjomba’ Israeleo; antao arè, mihalaly ama’o te hidian-gony am-bania tika naho hanampe vahotse añ’ambonen-tika vaho hiavotse mb’ amy mpanjaka’ Israeley mb’eo; he havotso’e ty fiai’o.
32 So they girded sackcloth on their loins, and put ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, Thy servant Ben-hadad saith, I pray thee, let me live. And he said, Is he yet alive? he is my brother.
Aa le nisikin-gony am-bania iereo naho nanampe vahotse añ’ambone eo, vaho niavotse mb’amy mpanjaka’ Israeley mb’eo nanao ty hoe: Manao ty hoe ama’o i mpitoro’o Benehadadey: Miambane ama’o: angao ho velon-draho. Le hoe re: Toe mbe veloñe hao re? Rahalahiko ‘nio.
33 Now the men did diligently observe whether any thing would come from him, and did hastily catch it: and they said, Thy brother Ben-hadad. Then he said, Go ye, bring him. Then Ben-hadad came forth to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.
Aa le rinambe’ indaty rey ho viloñe, ie tsinepak’ am-palie’e i saontsy zay vaho nanao ty hoe: I rahalahi’o Benehadadey ‘nio. Le hoe re: Akia hitrifo. Aa le niakatse mb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Benehadade naho najò’e an-tsarete’e ao,
34 And Ben-hadad said unto him, The cities, which my father took from thy father, I will restore; and thou shalt make streets for thee in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria. Then said Ahab, I will send thee away with this covenant. So he made a covenant with him, and sent him away.
vaho hoe t’i Benehadade ama’e: Hampoliko o rova rinamben-draeko aman-drae’oo naho hamboare’o dokany e Damesèk’ ao manahake o namboaren-draeko e Someroneo. Izaho ka, hoe t’i Akabe, havotsoko irehe amy fañina zay. Aa le nifañina’e vaho navotso’e.
35 And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said unto his neighbour in the word of the Lord, Smite me, I pray thee. And the man refused to smite him.
Teo amy zao t’indaty, ana-dahi’ o mpitokio, nisaontsy an-drañetse ty amy nitsara’ Iehovày, ty hoe: Ehe, lafao iraho. Fe tsy nimete handafa aze indatiy.
36 Then said he unto him, Because thou hast not obeyed the voice of the Lord, behold, as soon as thou art departed from me, a lion shall slay thee. And as soon as he was departed from him, a lion found him, and slew him.
Le hoe re tama’e, Kanao tsy nihaoñe’o ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà, Inao! vata’e mieng’ ahy irehe le ho zevoñe’ ty liona. Aa le vata’e niavotse re, tendrek’ aze ty liona nañe-doza ama’e.
37 Then he found another man, and said, Smite me, I pray thee. And the man smote him, so that in smiting he wounded him.
Nanjo ondaty indraike re, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Ehe, Lafao iraho. Aa le linafa’ indatiy, finofo’e vaho nahafere aze.
38 So the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with ashes upon his face.
Le nienga mb’eo i mpitokiy, nandiñe i mpanjakay añ’olon-dalañe eo, ie nihonohono am-bandy ambonem-pihaino’e.
39 And as the king passed by, he cried unto the king: and he said, Thy servant went out into the midst of the battle; and, behold, a man turned aside, and brought a man unto me, and said, Keep this man: if by any means he be missing, then shall thy life be for his life, or else thou shalt pay a talent of silver.
Aa ie niary eo i mpanjakay le kinanji’e i mpanjakay, nanoe’e ty hoe: Naneñateña i hotakotakey ty mpitoro’o, le teo te nivike t’indaty nanese t’indaty amako nanao ty hoe: Tano ondatio; fa ndra ino ty maha-tsi-eo aze, le ty fiai’o ho a’ ty fiai’e, ke hondroha’o volafoty talenta raike.
40 And as thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone. And the king of Israel said unto him, So shall thy judgment be; thyself hast decided it.
Aa ie nitoloñe atoy naho aroy ty mpitoro’o, le nimosao re. Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele ama’e: Aa le izay ty izakañ’ azo; izay ty linaha’o.
41 And he hasted, and took the ashes away from his face; and the king of Israel discerned him that he was of the prophets.
Nafaha’e amy zao i bandy am-pihaino’eoy; le napota’ i mpanjakay t’ie mpiamo mpitokio.
42 And he said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast let go out of thy hand a man whom I appointed to utter destruction, therefore thy life shall go for his life, and thy people for his people.
Le hoe re tama’e: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà; Kanao navotso’o am-pità’o indaty tinendreko ho rotsaheñey, le ty fiai’o ty amy fiai’ey vaho ondati’oo ty am’ ondati’eo.
43 And the king of Israel went to his house heavy and displeased, and came to Samaria.
Aa le nimpoly mb’ añ’anjomba’e mb’eo i mpanjaka’ Israeley, nilonjetse naho nioremèñe t’ie nipoke e Somerone ao.
