< 1 Kings 22 >

1 And they continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.
Aram laklo neh Israel laklo ah kum thum caemtloek om kolla kho a sak uh.
2 And it came to pass in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
A kum thum dongla a pha vaengah tah Judah manghai Jehoshaphat te Israel manghai taengla suntla.
3 And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that Ramoth in Gilead [is] ours, and we [be] still, [and] take it not out of the hand of the king of Syria?
Te vaengah Israel manghai loh a sal rhoek te, “Ramothgilead te mamih kah la na ming nama? Tedae Aram manghai kut lamloh te te n'lat parhi mamih n'ngam uh coeng,” a ti nah.
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.
Te phoeiah Jehoshaphat te Ramothgilead ah caemtloek ham kai neh cet sih ne? a ti nah. Jehoshaphat loh Israel manghai taengah, “Kai khaw nang banghui ni, ka pilnam khaw na pilnam banghui, ka marhang khaw na marhang banghui,” a ti nah.
5 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Enquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to day.
Tedae Jehoshaphat loh Israel manghai taengah, “Tihnin kah bangla BOEIPA ol te dawtlet mai,” a ti nah.
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 shall deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
Te dongah Israel manghai loh tonghma hlang ya li tluk te a coi. Te phoeiah amih te, “Ramothgilead ah caemtloek la ka cet aya? Ka paa aya?,” a ti nah vaengah, “Cet, ka Boeipa loh manghai kut ah m'paek bitni,” a ti uh.
7 And Jehoshaphat said, [Is there] not here a prophet of the LORD besides, that we might enquire of him?
Jehoshaphat loh, “Amah n'dawtlet uh thil ham khaw heah he BOEIPA kah tonghma om pawt nim?” a ti nah.
8 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, [There is] yet one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may enquire of the LORD: but I hate him; for he doth not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
Israel manghai loh Jehoshaphat te, “BOEIPA dawtlet ham hlang pakhat om pueng sitoe cakhaw, Imlah capa Mikhaiah long he kai ham tah hnothen neh a tonghma pawt dongah anih te ka hmuhuet. Tedae Imlah capa Mikhaiah tah a boethae bueng ni,” a ti nah. Jehoshaphat loh, “Manghai he te tla a cal moenih,” a ti nah.
9 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, Hasten [hither] Micaiah the son of Imlah.
Te dongah Israel manghai loh imkhoem pakhat te a khue tih, “Imlah capa Mikhaiah te a loe la lo,” a ti nah.
10 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah sat each on his throne, having put on their robes, in a void place in the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
Te vaengah hlang he Israel manghai khaw, Judah manghai Jehoshaphat khaw a himbai bai neh a ngolkhoel neh Samaria vongka thohka kah cangtilhmuen ah ngol uh. Te vaengah tonghma tom khaw amih mikhmuh ah tonghma uh van.
11 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron: and he said, Thus saith the LORD, With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou have consumed them.
Kenaanah capa Zedekiah long tah amah ham thi kii a saii tih, “BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Amih Aram te a thok hil he nen he na thoeh ni,” a ti nah.
12 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver [it] into the king’s hand.
Tonghma boeih khaw tonghma uh tangloeng tih, “Ramothgilead te paan lamtah thaihtak laeh, BOEIPA loh manghai kut ah a tloeng bitni,” a ti uh.
13 And the messenger that was gone to call Micaiah spake 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 [that which is] good.
Mikhaiah khue ham aka cet puencawn loh anih te a voek tih, “Tonghma rhoek kah ol he a ka pakhat la a caeh dongah manghai ham khaw then coeng ke. Ol he tah nang ol khaw amih neh ol pakhat la om saeh lamtah a then mah thui laeh,” a ti nah.
14 And Micaiah said, [As] the LORD liveth, what the LORD saith unto me, that will I speak.
Tedae Mikhaiah loh, “BOEIPA kah hingnah bangla BOEIPA loh kai taengah a thui bueng te ni ka thui,” a ti nah.
15 So he came to the king. And the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we forbear? And he answered him, Go, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
Manghai taeng a pha vaengah manghai loh anih te, “Mikhaiah, caemtloek ham Ramothgilead la ka paan aya? ka paa aya?,” a ti nah. Te dongah manghai te, “Paan lamtah thaihtak laeh, BOEIPA loh manghai kut ah a paek bitni,” a ti nah.
16 And the king said unto him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou tell me nothing but [that which is] true in the name of the LORD?
Tedae manghai loh anih te, “Kai taengah tah BOEIPA ming neh oltak dawk na thui pawt ham Kai loh nang te voei me yet hil lae kan caeng aih,” a ti nah.
17 And he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, as sheep that have not a shepherd: and the LORD said, These have no master: let them return every man to his house in peace.
Te vaengah, “Israel pum he tlang ah a taekyak boiva bangla ka hmuh. Amih aka dawn ham he om pawh. Te dongah BOEIPA loh, 'He rhoek he a boei a om moenih. Hlang loh amah im te ngaimong la paan uh saeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
18 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would prophesy no good concerning me, but evil?
Israel manghai loh Jehoshaphat taengah,” Nang taengah ka thui moenih a? Kai ham tah a thae bueng tih a then la a tonghma tlaih moenih,” a ti nah.
19 And he said, Hear thou therefore 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.
Te phoeiah, “Te dongah BOEIPA ol he hnatun. BOEIPA he amah ngolkhoel dongah ngol tih a banvoei a bantang kah amah taengah vaan caempuei boeih a pai te ka hmuh.
20 And the LORD said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner.
BOEIPA loh, 'Ramothgilead a paan vaengah cungku sak ham Ahab te ulong a cuek eh? ' a ti. Te dongah he tlam he a thui pah tih ke tlam khaw a thui pah.
21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will persuade him.
Mueihla ha pawk tih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a pai phoeiah tah, 'Anih te kamah loh ka cuek eh?,’ a ti. Te vaengah BOEIPA loh anih te, 'Me nen nim?' a ti nah.
22 And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade [him], and prevail also: go forth, and do so.
Te vaengah, 'Ka paan vetih a tonghma boeih kah a ka dongah laithae mueihla la ka om pah ni,’ a ti nah. Te dongah, 'Na cuek vetih na coeng pataeng bitni, cet lamtah saii tangloeng,’ a ti nah.
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.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh laithae mueihla te na tonghma boeih kah ka dongah a khueh coeng he. BOEIPA loh nang ham yoethae kawng ni a thui,” a ti nah.
24 But Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near, and smote Micaiah on the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD from me to speak unto thee?
Te vaengah Kenaanah capa Zedekiah te thoeih tih Mikhaiah te a kam ah a thoek. Te phoeiah, “Nang aka voek ham BOEIPA mueihla he kai taeng lamloh melam a kat,” a ti nah.
25 And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see in that day, when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.
Te dongah Mikhaiah loh, “Imkhui kah imkhui ah thuh hamla na mop khohnin daengah nang loh hmu ne,” a ti nah.
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;
Te vaengah Israel manghai loh, “Mikhaiah te khuen uh lamtah khopuei mangpa Amon taeng neh manghai capa Joash taengla thak uh.
27 And say, Thus saith the king, Put this [fellow] in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I come in peace.
Te phoeiah, 'Manghai loh he ni a thui. Anih he thongim ah khueh uh. Kai sading la ka pawk hil anih he hnaemtaeknah tui neh hnaemtaeknah buh mah cah uh,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
28 And Micaiah said, If thou return at all in peace, the LORD hath not spoken by me. And he said, Hearken, O people, every one of you.
Tedae Mikhaiah loh, “Sading neh na mael la na mael atah kai dongah BOEIPA cal pawt mako,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah amih pilnam pum te khaw, “Hnatun uh he,” a ti nah.
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Te phoeiah Israel manghai neh Judah manghai Jehoshaphat loh Ramothgilead te a paan.
30 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and enter into the battle; but put thou on thy robes. And the king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
Israel manghai loh Jehoshaphat te, “Ka sa uh vetih caemtloek la ka cet ni, nang te namah kah himbai bai ngawn,” a ti nah. Te dongah Israel manghai te sa uh tih caemtloek la cet.
31 But the king of Syria commanded his thirty and two captains that had rule over his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king of Israel.
Aram manghai loh leng mangpa rhoek sawmthum panit te a uen tih, “Israel manghai amah bueng phoeiah tah, a tanoe a kangham khaw tloek uh boeh,” a ti nah.
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.
Leng mangpa rhoek loh Jehoshaphat te a hmuh vaengah amih loh Israel manghai rhep a ti uh. Te dongah anih te tloek ham dong uh dae Jehoshaphat lo a pang thil.
33 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it [was] not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
Tedae anih te Israel manghai moenih tila leng mangpa rhoek loh a hmuh van neh anih hnuk lamloh mael uh.
34 And a [certain] man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness: wherefore he said unto the driver of his chariot, Turn thine hand, and carry me out of the host; for I am wounded.
Tedae hlang pakhat loh amah thincaknah neh lii a phuk hatah Israel manghai te rhuhcong laklo neh caempho laklo ah a kah. Te dongah amah kah lengboei te, “Na kut hooi lamtah caem lamloh kai n'khuen laeh, ka nue coeng,” a ti nah.
35 And the battle increased that day: and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians, and died at even: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot.
Hnin at puet caemtloek khaw a caeh vaengah tah manghai te Aram dan kah leng dongah pai sut. Hlaem vaengah tah duek tih a hmasoe thii te leng kah tungngol dongla long.
36 And there went a proclamation throughout the host about the going down of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his own country.
Khomik a tlak vaengah tah caem khuiah tamlung cet tih, “Hlang te amah khopuei la, amah khohmuen la rhip mael saeh,” a ti.
37 So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
Manghai te a duek daengah Samaria la pawk tih Samaria ah manghai te a up uh.
38 And [one] washed the chariot in the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood; and they washed his armour; according unto the word of the LORD which he spake.
Leng te Samaria tuibuem ah a lae tih BOEIPA ol loh a thui bangla pumyoi tuihluk ah a thii te ui loh a laeh.
39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he made, and all the cities that he built, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Ahab kah ol noi neh a saii boeih, vueino im a sak te khaw, khopuei tom a sak te khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
40 So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.
A napa rhoek taengla Ahab a khoem uh phoeiah tah a capa Ahaziah he anih yueng la manghai.
41 And Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
Israel manghai Ahab kah a kum li dongah Asa capa Jehoshaphat te Judah ah manghai.
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.
Jehoshaphat he sawmthum kum nga a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum kul kum nga manghai. A manu ming tah Shilhi canu Azubah ni.
43 And he walked in all the ways of Asa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing [that which was] right in the eyes of the LORD: nevertheless the high places were not taken away; [for] the people offered and burnt incense yet in the high places.
BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem saii ham he a napa Asa kah longpuei cungkuem dongah pongpa tih anih lamkah te phaelh pawh.
44 And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
Tedae hmuensang a khoe uh kolla pilnam a nawn pueng tih hmuensang ah a phum uh.
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he shewed, and how he warred, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Jehoshaphat loh Israel manghai te a thuung. Jehoshaphat kah ol noi neh a thayung thamal a saii khaw, a vathoh te khaw Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
46 And the remnant of the sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa, he took out of the land.
Hlanghalh kah a coih, a napa Asa tue lamloh aka om te khohmuen lamloh a khoe.
47 [There was] then no king in Edom: a deputy [was] king.
Edom ah manghai tal tih manghai a khueh pah.
48 Jehoshaphat made ships of Tharshish to go to Ophir for gold: but they went not; for the ships were broken at Ezion-geber.
Ophir sui te paan hamla Jehoshaphat loh Tarshish sangpho te a saii tah a saii dae Eziongeber ah sangpho te a rhek la a rhek pah tih hlaikan pawh.
49 Then said Ahaziah the son of Ahab unto Jehoshaphat, Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not.
Ahab capa Ahaziah loh Jehoshaphat taengah, “Ka sal rhoek he na sal rhoek taengah sangpho neh pongpa uh mai saeh,” a ti nah dae Jehoshaphat loh ngaih pawh.
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.
Jehoshaphat khaw a napa taengla a khoem uh vaengah a napa David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up uh tih a capa Jehoram te anih yueng la manghai.
51 Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned two years over Israel.
Judah manghai Jehoshaphat kah kum hlai rhih vaengah Ahab capa Ahaziah loh Samaria ah Israel a manghai thil tih Israel soah kum nit manghai.
52 And he did 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, who made Israel to sin:
BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii tih a napa longpuei ah, a manu longpuei ah, Israel aka tholh sak Nebat capa Jeroboam kah longpuei ah pongpa.
53 For he served Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked to anger the LORD God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
Baal te tho a thueng thil tih a taengah a bakop dongah a napa kah a saii bangla a cungkuem dongah Israel Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.
