< 1 Kings 20 >
1 And Ben-Hadad king of Aram has gathered all his force, and thirty-two kings [are] with him, and horse and chariot, and he goes up and lays siege against Samaria, and fights with it,
Ary Beni-hadada, mpanjakan’ i Syria, namory ny miaramilany rehetra, koa mpanjaka roa amby telo-polo mbamin’ ny soavaly sy ny kalesy no niaraka taminy; dia niakatra izy ka nanao fahirano an’ i Samada ary namely azy.
2 and sends messengers to Ahab king of Israel, to the city,
Ary nandefa iraka ho any amin’ i Ahaba, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, tany an-tanàna izy
3 and says to him, “Thus said Ben-Hadad: Your silver and your gold are mine, and your wives and your sons—the best—are mine.”
hanao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Beni-hadada: Ny volafotsinao sy ny volamenanao dia ahy; ary ny vadinao aman-janakao, na dia ny tsara tarehy indrindra aza, dia ahy koa.
4 And the king of Israel answers and says, “According to your word, my lord, O king: I [am] yours, and all that I have.”
Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely namaly hoe: Eny marina ny teninao ry mpanjaka tompoko ô: anao aho sy izay rehetra ananako.
5 And the messengers turn back and say, “Thus spoke Ben-Hadad, saying, Surely I sent to you, saying, Your silver, and your gold, and your wives, and your sons, you give to me;
Dia niverina indray ny iraka ka nanao hoe: Izao no tenin’ i Beni-hadada: Naniraka tatỳ aminao aho nanao hoe: Ny volafotsinao sy ny volamenanao ary ny vadinao aman-janakao dia omeo ahy;
6 for if, at this time tomorrow, I send my servants to you, then they have searched your house, and the houses of your servants, and it has been [that] every desirable thing of your eyes they place in their hand, and have taken [them] away.”
koa raha maniraka ny mpanompoko ho atỳ aminao aho rahampitso toy izao, ka savany ny tranonao sy ny tranon’ ny mpanomponao, dia horaisin’ ny tànany sy ho entiny avokoa izay rehetra mahafinaritra ny masonao na inona na inona.
7 And the king of Israel calls to all [the] elderly of the land and says, “Please know and see that this [one] is seeking evil, for he sent to me for my wives, and for my sons, and for my silver, and for my gold, and I did not withhold from him.”
Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely nampaka ny loholona rehetra amin’ ny tany ka nanao hoe: Masìna ianareo, fantaro sy izahao fa mila sotasota mihitsy ilehiny; fa efa naniraka tatỳ amiko izy haka ny vadiko aman-janako mbamin’ ny volafotsiko sy ny volamenako ka tsy nolaviko.
8 And all the elderly and all the people say to him, “Do not listen, nor consent.”
Ary hoy ny loholona sy ny vahoaka rehetra taminy: Aza mihaino na manaiky.
9 And he says to the messengers of Ben-Hadad, “Say to my lord the king, All that you sent to your servant for at the first I do, and this thing I am not able to do”; and the messengers go and take him back word.
Ka dia hoy Ahaba tamin’ ny irak’ i Beni-hadada. Lazao amin’ ny mpanjaka tompoko hoe: Izay rehetra nanirahanao tany amiko mpanomponao tamin’ ny voalohany dia hataoko; fa izao zavatra izao kosa tsy azoko ekena. Dia lasa ireo iraka ka nitondra teny niverina tany amin’ i Beni-hadada indray;
10 And Ben-Hadad sends to him and says, “Thus the gods do to me, and thus do they add, if the dust of Samaria suffice for handfuls for all the people who [are] at my feet.”
ary izy naniraka tany aminy ka nanao hoe: Hataon’ ireo andriamanitra amiko anie izany, eny, mihoatra noho izany aza, raha ho ampy eran-tànan-ila akory ny vovok’ i Samaria amin’ ny isan-olona manaraka ahy.
11 And the king of Israel answers and says, “Speak: Do not let him who is girding on boast himself as him who is loosing [his armor].”
Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely namaly hoe: Izao no holazainao aminy: Aoka izay vao misikìna tsy mba hirehareha tahaka ny efa mamaha.
12 And it comes to pass at the hearing of this word—and he is drinking, he and the kings, in the shelters—that he says to his servants, “Set yourselves”; and they set themselves against the city.
Ary rehefa ren’ i Beni-hadada izany teny izany, raha mbola nisotro tao an-trano rantsan-kazo izy sy ireo mpanjaka, dia hoy izy tamin’ ny mpanompony: Milahara ianareo. Ary dia nilahatra hamely ny tanàna izy.
13 And behold, a certain prophet has come near to Ahab king of Israel and says, “Thus said YHWH: Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I am giving it into your hand today, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
Ary, indro, nisy mpaminany nanatona an’ i Ahaba, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, ka nanao hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Hitanao va ireo olona maro be rehetra ireo? Indro, hatolotro eo an-tananao ireo anio; dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho no Jehovah.
14 And Ahab says, “By whom?” And he says, “Thus said YHWH: By the young men of the heads of the provinces”; and he says, “Who directs the battle?” And he says, “You.”
Ary hoy Ahaba: Amin’ iza? Ary hoy izy: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Amin’ ny zatovon’ ny komandin’ ny fanapahana isan-tokony. Dia hoy izy: Iza ary no hamely aloha? Hianao ihany, hoy izy.
15 And he inspects the young men of the heads of the provinces, and they are two hundred and thirty-two, and after them he has mustered all the people, all the sons of Israel—seven thousand,
Ary nandamina ny zatovon’ ny komandin’ ny fanapahana isan-tokony izy, ka roa amby telo-polo amby roan-jato no isany; ary manarakaraka izany, dia nandamina ny olona rehetra izy, dia ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, ka fito arivo no isany.
16 and they go out at noon, and Ben-Hadad is drinking—drunk in the shelters, he and the kings, the thirty-two kings helping him.
Ary nivoaka izy nony nitataovovonana ny andro. Fa Beni-hadada nisotro ho mamo tao an-trano rantsan-kazo, dia izy sy ireo mpanjaka roa amby telo-polo izay nanampy azy.
17 And the young men of the heads of the provinces go out at the first, and Ben-Hadad sends, and they declare to him, saying, “Men have come out of Samaria.”
Ary ny zatovon’ ny komandin’ ny fanapahana isan-tokony nivoaka voalohany; ary Beni-hadada naniraka, ka dia nilazana hoe: Misy olona efa nivoaka avy any Samaria.
18 And he says, “If they have come out for peace, catch them alive; and if they have come out for battle, catch them alive.”
Ary hoy izy: Ataovy sambo-belona izy, na ho avy hihavana, na ho avy hiady.
19 And these have gone out of the city—the young men of the heads of the provinces—and the force that [is] after them,
Dia nivoaka avy tao an-tanàna ireo zatovon’ ny komandin’ ny fanapahana isan-totony ireo sy ny miaramila izay nanaraka azy.
20 and each strikes his man, and Aram flees, and Israel pursues them, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram escapes on a horse—and the horsemen;
Ary samy nahafaty olona iray avy izy rehetra; dia vaky nandositra ny Syriana, ka nenjehin’ ny Isiraely; ary Beni-hadada, mpanjakan’ i Syria, nandositra an-tsoavaly mbamin’ ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly sasany koa.
21 and the king of Israel goes out, and strikes the horses, and the charioteers, and has struck among the Arameans a great striking.
Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely nivoaka, dia namely: ny an-tsoavaly sy ny an-kalesy, ka nahafatesany be dia be ny Syriana.
22 And the prophet comes near to the king of Israel and says to him, “Go, strengthen yourself, and know and see that which you do, for at the turn of the year the king of Aram is coming up against you.”
Ary ilay mpaminany nankany amin’ ny i mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely ka nanao taminy hoe: Mahereza tsara, ary fantaro sy izahao izay ataonao; fa raha miherina ny taona, dia hiakatra indray ny mpanjakan’ i Syria hiady aminao.
23 And the servants of the king of Aram said to him, “Their gods [are] gods of hills, therefore they were stronger than us; and yet, we fight with them in the plain—are we not stronger than they?
Ary hoy ny mpanompon’ ny mpanjakan’ i Syria taminy: Andriamanitry ny havoana ny Andriamanitr’ izy ireo, koa izany no nahareseny antsika; fa aoka ange isika hiady aminy eny an-tany lemaka, raha tsy ho resintsika izy e!
24 And this thing you do: turn aside each of the kings out of his place, and set captains in their stead;
Koa izao zavatra izao no ataovy: Esory ny mpanjaka samy hiala amin’ ny toerany avy, ka asio mpanapaka hisolo azy;
25 and you, number for yourself a force as the force that is fallen from you, and horse for horse, and chariot for chariot, and we fight with them in the plain; are we not stronger than they?” And he listens to their voice, and does so.
ary ianao kosa dia makà miaramila ho anao toraka ny miaramilanao izay maty teo ary soavaly ho solon’ ny soavaly sy kalesy ho solon’ ny kalesy; ary hiady aminy eny an-tany lemaka isika, ka dia hahery noho izy tokoa. Ary nanaiky ny tenin’ ireo izy, ka dia nataony izany.
26 And it comes to pass at the turn of the year, that Ben-Hadad inspects the Arameans, and goes up to Aphek, to battle with Israel,
Ary nony niherina ny taona, dia nandamina ny Syriana Beni-hadada ka niakatra nankany Afeka hiady amin’ ny Isiraely.
27 and the sons of Israel have been inspected, and supported, and go to meet them, and the sons of Israel encamp before them, like two flocks of goats, and the Arameans have filled the land.
Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra kosa dia nalamina sy novatsiana, ka dia lasa hiady aminy; ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely nitoby tandrifiny toy ny osy andiany kely roa toko; fa ny Syriana kosa nanenika ny tany.
28 And a man of God comes near, and speaks to the king of Israel and says, “Thus said YHWH: Because that the Arameans have said, YHWH [is] God of [the] hills, but He [is] not God of [the] valleys—I have given the whole of this great multitude into your hand, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
Ary nanatona ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra ka nilaza tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Satria ny Syriana nilaza hoe: Andriamanitry ny havoana ihany Jehovah, fa tsy mba Andriamanitry ny tany lemaka, dia hatolotro eo an-tananao ireo olona maro be rehetra ireo, ka dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho no Jehovah.
29 And they encamp opposite one another [for] seven days, and it comes to pass on the seventh day, that the battle draws near, and the sons of Israel strike one hundred thousand footmen of Aram in one day.
Dia nitoby mifanandrify hafitoana izy roa tonta. Ary tamin’ ny andro fahafito, dia raikitra ny ady; ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely nahafaty ny miaramila an-tongotra iray hetsy tamin’ ny Syriana indray andro.
30 And those left flee to Aphek, into the city, and the wall falls on twenty-seven chief men who are left, and Ben-Hadad has fled, and comes into the city, into the innermost part.
Fa ny sisa dia nandositra nankany an-tanàna Afeka; nefa nianjeran’ ny manda ireny olona sisa ireny, ary fito arivo amby roa alina no isany. Ary Beni-hadada nandositra nankany an-tanàna ka niditra tao amin’ ny efi-trano anatiny.
31 And his servants say to him, “Now behold, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel—that they are kind kings; please let us put sackcloth on our loins and ropes on our heads, and we go out to the king of Israel; it may be he keeps you alive.”
Fa hoy ny mpanompony taminy: Indro, efa renay fa mpanjaka mamindra fo ireo mpanjakan’ ny taranak’ Isiraely. Koa masìna ianao, avelao hosikinanay lamba fisaonana ny valahanay, ary hasianay mahazaka ny lohanay, dia hankany amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izahay; angamba hovelominy ny ainao.
32 And they gird sackcloth on their loins, and ropes [are] on their heads, and they come to the king of Israel, and say, “Your servant Ben-Hadad has said, Please let me live”; and he says, “Is he still alive? He [is] my brother.”
Dia nosikinany lamba fisaonana ny valahany, ary nasiany mahazaka ny lohany, dia nankany amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izy ka nanao hoe: Izao no fitenin’ i Beni-hadada mpanomponao: Avelao mba ho velona ny aiko. Ary hoy izy: Moa mbola velona ihany va izy? Rahalahiko izy.
33 And the men observe diligently, and hurry, and catch [the word] from him, and say, “Your brother Ben-Hadad”; and he says, “Go in, bring him”; and Ben-Hadad comes out to him, and he causes him to come up on the chariot.
Ary nataon’ ireo olona ireo fa zara ho azy izany, dia namonjy nanantitra ny teniny izy ka nanao hoe: Rahalahinao hoe Beni-adada. Dia hoy izy: Mandehana, alao izy. Ary Beni-hadada nankany aminy, dia nasainy niakatra ho eo amin’ ny kalesiny.
34 And he says to him, “The cities that my father took from your father, I give back, and you make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father did in Samaria; and I, with a covenant, send you away”; and he makes a covenant with him, and sends him away.
Ary hoy Beni-hadada taminy: Ny tanàna izay nalain’ ny raiko tamin’ ny rainao dia hampodiko; ary manaova lalambe ho anao any Damaskosy, tahaka ny nataon’ ny raiko tany Samaria. Ary hoy Ahaba: Halefako ianao amin’ izany fanekena izany. Dia nanao fanekena taminy izy ka nandefa azy.
35 And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his neighbor by the word of YHWH, “Please strike me”; and the man refuses to strike him,
Ary nisy lehilahy anankiray, zanaky ny mpaminany, niteny tamin’ ny namany araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Masìna ianao asio aho. Fa tsy nety namely azy ilay lehilahy.
36 and he says to him, “Because that you have not listened to the voice of YHWH, behold, you are going from me, and the lion has struck you”; and he goes from him, and the lion finds him, and strikes him.
Dia hoy izy taminy: Satria ianao tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah, indro, fa raha vao miala amiko eto ianao, dia hisy liona hamono anao. Ary raha vao niala teo aminy izy, dia hitan’ ny liona ka novonoiny.
37 And he finds another man and says, “Please strike me”; and the man strikes him, striking and wounding,
Ary nahita lehilahy hafa indray ralehilahy ka nanao hoe: Masìna ianao, asio aho. Ary ilay lehilahy namely azy, dia voa izy ka naratra.
38 and the prophet goes and stands for the king on the way, and disguises himself with ashes on his eyes.
Dia lasa ilay mpaminany ka niandry ny mpanjaka teny an-dalana, ary nasiany fehiloha tamin’ ny handriny tsy hahafantarany azy.
39 And it comes to pass—the king is passing by—that he has cried to the king and says, “Your servant went out into the midst of the battle, and behold, a man has turned aside and brings a man to me, and says, Keep this man; if he is at all missing, then your life has been for his life, or you weigh out a talent of silver;
Ary nony nandalo ny mpanjaka, dia nitaraina taminy ilay mpaminany ka nanao hoe: Izaho mpanomponao nankany anatin’ ny ady; ary, indro, nisy lehilahy anankiray nivily ka nitondra lehilahy tany amiko sady nanao hoe: Hazony ity lehilahy ity; fa raha tahìny lasa izy, dia ny ainao no hisolo ny amy, na handoa talenta volafotsy iray ianao.
40 and it comes to pass, your servant is working here and there, and he is not!” And the king of Israel says to him, “Your judgment [is] right; you have determined [it].”
Kanjo nony nikeninkenina tetsy sy teroa ny mpanomponao, dia lasa izy. Ary hoy ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely taminy: Ho tahaka izany ihany no hitsarana anao; ny tenanao no nilaza izany.
41 And he hurries and turns aside the ashes from off his eyes, and the king of Israel discerns him, that he [is] of the prophets,
Ary nesoriny haingana ilay fehi-loha tamin’ ny handriny; ka dia fantatry ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely fa isan’ ny mpaminany izy.
42 and he says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Because you have sent away the man I devoted, out of [your] hand, even your life has been for his life, and your people for his people”;
Dia hoy izy taminy: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Satria nalefanao niala teo an-tananao ny lehilahy izay nasaiko hovonoina tokoa, dia ny ainao no hisolo ny ainy, ary ny olonao no hisolo ny olony.
43 and the king of Israel goes to his house, sulky and angry, and comes to Samaria.
Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely nandeha ho any an-tranony sady nalahelo no sosotra, dia tonga tany Samaria.
