2 Chronicles 18
1 And Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance, and he intermarried with Achab.
Nísinsin yìí Jehoṣafati sì ní ọrọ̀ àti ọlá púpọ̀, ó sì dá àna pẹ̀lú Ahabu nípa fífẹ́ ọmọ rẹ̀.
2 And he went down after [some] years to Achab to Samaria. And Achab killed for him sheep and oxen in abundance, and for the people that were with him, and persuaded him to go up to Ramoth-gil'ad.
Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ díẹ̀, ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti lọ bá Ahabu lálejò ní Samaria. Ahabu sì pa àgùntàn àti màlúù púpọ̀ fún àti àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ ó sì rọ̀ ọ́ láti dojú ìjà kọ Ramoti Gileadi.
3 Then said Achab the king of Israel unto Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, Wilt thou go with me against Ramoth-gil'ad! And he said to him, I [will be] like thee, and my people [shall be] as thy people; and we will be with thee in the battle.
Ahabu ọba Israẹli sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ ọba Jehoṣafati, ọba Juda pé, “Ṣé ìwọ yóò lọ pẹ̀lú mi sí Ramoti Gileadi?” Jehoṣafati sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Èmi wà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ ti ṣe wà, àti àwọn ènìyàn mi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ènìyàn rẹ àwa yóò pẹ̀lú rẹ nínú ogun náà”.
4 And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, today [first] of the word of the Lord.
Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoṣafati náà sì tún wí fún ọba Israẹli pé, “Kọ́kọ́ béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa.”
5 Then did the king of Israel assemble the prophets, four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go to Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up, and God will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ọba Israẹli kó àwọn wòlíì papọ̀, irinwó ọkùnrin ó sì bi wọ́n pé, “Kí àwa kí lọ sí ogun Ramoti Gileadi tàbí kí èmi kí ó jọ̀wọ́ rẹ?” Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Lọ, nítorí tí Ọlọ́run yóò fi lé ọba lọ́wọ́.”
6 And Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Eternal besides, that we might inquire of him?
Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoṣafati béèrè pé, “Ṣé kò ha sí wòlíì Olúwa níbí ẹni tí àwa ìbá béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀?”
7 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we may inquire of the Lord; but I hate him; for he never prophesieth any good concerning me, but at all times evil: it is Michayhu the son of Yimla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
Ọba Israẹli dá Jehoṣafati lóhùn pé, “Ọkùnrin kan wà síbẹ̀ lọ́dọ̀ ẹni tí àwa ìbá tún béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n èmi kórìíra rẹ̀ nítorí kò jẹ́ sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ohun rere kan nípa mi ṣùgbọ́n bí kò ṣe ohun búburú, ní gbogbo ìgbà òun náà ni Mikaiah ọmọ Imla.” Jehoṣafati sì dá lóhùn pé, “Ọba kò gbọdọ̀ sọ bẹ́ẹ̀.”
8 Then called the king of Israel a certain court-officer, and said, “Hasten hither Michayhu the son of Yimla.”
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Israẹli pe ọ̀kan lára àwọn ìjòyè ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ mú Mikaiah ọmọ Imla kí ó yára wá.”
9 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, dressed in their royal garments, and they were sitting in a threshing-floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria: and all the prophets prophesied before them.
Wọ́n wọ aṣọ ìgúnwà wọn, ọba Israẹli àti Jehoṣafati ọba Juda wọ́n jókòó sórí ìtẹ́ wọ́n ní ìta ẹnu-bodè Samaria, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn wòlíì tí ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ níwájú wọn.
10 And Zedekiah the son of Kena'anah had made himself horns of iron; and he said, Thus hath said the Lord, With these shalt thou push the Syrians until thou have made an end of them.
Nísinsin yìí Sedekiah ọmọ Kenaana sì ti ṣe ìwo irin, ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ: ‘Pẹ̀lú èyí ìwọ yóò kan àwọn ará Siria títí ìwọ ó fi pa wọ́n run.’”
11 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up against Ramoth-gil'ad, and prosper, and the Lord will deliver it into the king's hand.
Gbogbo àwọn wòlíì tí ó kù ni wọn ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní àkókò kan náà. Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Dojúkọ Ramoti Gileadi ìwọ yóò sì ṣẹ́gun, nítorí Olúwa yóò fi lé ọba lọ́wọ́.”
12 And the messenger that went to call Michayhu spoke to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets are with one voice good for the king: so do let thy word, I pray thee, be like [that of] any one of them, and speak something good.
Ìránṣẹ́ tí ó ti lọ pe Mikaiah sì wí fún un pé, “Ẹ wò ó, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọkùnrin kan àti òmíràn wòlíì fi ẹnu kan sọ rere fún ọba. Jẹ́ kí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ kí ó dàbí ọ̀kan nínú tiwọn, kí o sì sọ rere.”
13 And Michayhu said, As the Lord liveth, truly what my God may say, that will I speak.
Ṣùgbọ́n Mikaiah wí pe, “Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti dájú pé Olúwa ń bẹ láààyè, èmi yóò sọ ohun tí Ọlọ́run mi sọ.”
14 And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Michah, shall we go to Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and may they be delivered into your hand.
Nígbà tí ó dé, ọba béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, “Mikaiah, ṣe kí àwa ki ó lọ sí ogun ti Ramoti Gileadi, tàbí kí àwa kí ó fàsẹ́yìn?” Ó sì dáhùn pé, “Ẹ dojúkọ wọ́n kí ẹ sì ṣẹ́gun, nítorí a ó fi wọ́n lé yín lọ́wọ́.”
15 And the king said to him, How many times yet must I adjure thee that thou shalt not speak to me any thing but the truth in the name of the Lord?
Ọba sì wí fún un pé, “Ìgbà mélòó ni èmi ó fi ọ́ búra láti sọ ohun kan fún mi bí kò ṣe ọ̀rọ̀ òtítọ́ ní orúkọ Olúwa?”
16 Then said he, I saw all Israel scattered over the mountains, as flocks that have not a shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.
Mikaiah sì dáhùn pé, “Mo rí gbogbo Israẹli túká kiri lórí àwọn òkè bí àgùntàn tí kò ní olùṣọ́, Olúwa sì wí pé, ‘Àwọn wọ̀nyí kò ní olúwa. Jẹ́ kí olúkúlùkù padà sí ilé rẹ̀ ní àlàáfíà.’”
17 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not say unto thee that he would not prophesy concerning me any good, but [only] for evil?
Ọba Israẹli wí fún Jehoṣafati pé, “Ṣe èmi kò sọ fún ọ wí pé òun kò sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ rere kankan nípa mi rí, ṣùgbọ́n búburú nìkan?”
18 And he said, Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right and his left.
Mikaiah tẹ̀síwájú pé, “Nítorí náà, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, mo rí Olúwa jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ gbogbo ogun ọ̀run sì dúró lápá ọ̀tún àti lápá òsì.
19 And the Lord said, Who will persuade Achab the king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gil'ad? And one said—one saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner.
Olúwa sì wí pé, ‘Ta ni yóò tan Ahabu ọba Israẹli lọ sí Ramoti Gileadi kí ó sì lọ kú ikú rẹ̀ níbẹ̀?’ “Èkínní sì sọ tìhín, òmíràn sì sọ tọ̀hún.
20 Then came there forth a spirit, and placed himself before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. And the Lord said unto him, Wherewith?
Ní ìparí, ni ẹ̀mí kan wá síwájú, ó dúró níwájú Olúwa ó sì wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò tàn án.’ “‘Nípa ọ̀nà wo?’ Olúwa béèrè.
21 And he said, I will go forth, and I will become a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou wilt persuade him, and also prevail: go forth, and do so.
“‘Èmi yóò lọ láti lọ di ẹ̀mí èké ní ẹnu gbogbo àwọn wòlíì.’ “‘Ìwọ yóò sì borí nínú ìtànjẹ rẹ̀ báyìí,’ ni Olúwa wí. ‘Lọ kí ó sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.’
22 And now, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets: but the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee.
“Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nísinsin yìí Olúwa ti fi ẹ̀mí èké sí ẹnu àwọn wòlíì rẹ. Olúwa sì ti sọ ibi sí ọ.”
23 And Zedekiah the son of Kena'anah went near, and struck Michayhu on the cheek, and said, Which is the way the Spirit of the Lord passed away from me to speak with thee?
Nígbà náà Sedekiah ọmọ Kenaana lọ sókè ó sì gbá Mikaiah ní ojú. Ó sì béèrè pé, “Ní ọ̀nà wo ni ẹ̀mí Olúwa gbà kọjá lọ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi láti bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀?”
24 And Michayhu said, Behold, thou shalt see it on that day when thou shalt go into the innermost chamber to hide thyself.
Mikaiah sì dáhùn pé, “Ìwọ yóò ṣe ìwádìí ní ọjọ́ tí ìwọ yóò sá pamọ́ sínú ìyẹ̀wù.”
25 And the king of Israel said, Take ye Michayhu, and carry him back unto Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;
Ọba Israẹli pa á láṣẹ pé, “Mú Mikaiah kí o sì ran padà sí Amoni olórí ìlú àti sí Joaṣi ọmọ ọba,
26 And say ye, Thus hath said the king, Put this man in the prison, and feed him with sparing bread and with sparing water, until I return in peace.
Ó sì wí pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí ọba sọ, ẹ fi ènìyàn yìí sínú túbú kí ẹ má sì ṣe fún un ní ohunkóhun ṣùgbọ́n àkàrà àti omi títí tí èmi yóò fi dé ní àlàáfíà.’”
27 And Michayhu said, If thou return at all in peace, then hath the Lord not spoken through me. And he said, Hear it, O all ye nations!
Mikaiah sì wí pe, “Tí ìwọ bá padà ní àlàáfíà, Olúwa kò sọ̀rọ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ mi.” Nígbà náà, ó sì fi kún un pé, “Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi, gbogbo ẹ̀yin ènìyàn!”
28 And the king of Israel went up with Jehoshaphat the king of Judah to Ramoth-gil'ad.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Israẹli àti Jehoṣafati ọba Juda lọ sókè ní Ramoti Gileadi.
29 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and enter into the battle; but do thou put on thy royal garments. And the king of Israel disguised himself, and they went into the battle.
Ọba Israẹli sọ fún Jehoṣafati pé, “Èmi yóò lọ sí ojú ìjà, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ wọ aṣọ ìgúnwà rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Israẹli pa aṣọ rẹ̀ dà, ó sì lọ sí ojú ìjà.
30 And the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that he had, saying, Fight ye not with the small or with the great, save only with the king of Israel alone.
Nísinsin yìí ọba Siria ti pàṣẹ fún àwọn olórí kẹ̀kẹ́ tí ó wà ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ má ṣe jà pẹ̀lú ẹnìkankan, èwe tàbí àgbà àyàfi ọba Israẹli.”
31 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, This is the king of Israel. And they encompassed him to fight; and Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God induced them to go away from him.
Nígbà tí àwọn olórí kẹ̀kẹ́ rí Jehoṣafati, wọ́n rò wí pé, “Èyí ní ọba Israẹli.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì yípadà láti bá a jà. Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoṣafati kégbe sókè, Olúwa sì ràn án lọ́wọ́. Ọlọ́run sì lé wọn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀,
32 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 following him.
Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí olórí kẹ̀kẹ́ rí i wí pé kì í ṣe ọba Israẹli, wọ́n sì dáwọ́ lílé rẹ̀ dúró.
33 But a certain man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints and the armor: wherefore he said to the chariot-driver, Turn about, and carry me out of the camp; for I am wounded.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹnìkan fa ọrun rẹ̀ láì pète, ó sì bá ọba Israẹli láàrín ìpàdé ẹ̀wù irin, ọba sì sọ fún olùtọ́jú kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Yí ọwọ́ rẹ padà, kí o sì wà mí jáde kúrò lójú ìjà. Nítorí èmi ti gbọgbẹ́.”
34 And the battle increased on that day: and the king of Israel stayed [himself] up in the chariot against the Syrians until the evening, and he died at the time of the sun's going down.
Ní ọjọ́ pípẹ́, ìjà náà sì ń pọ̀ sí i, ọba Israẹli dúró nínú kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀ kọjú sí àwọn ará Siria títí ó fi di àṣálẹ́. Lẹ́yìn náà ní àkókò ìwọ oòrùn, ó sì kú.
