1 Kings 22
1 For almost three years there was no war between Syria and Israel.
NOHO kuikahi ae la lakou i na makahiki ekolu, aohe kaua iwaena o Suria a me ka Iseraela.
2 Then King Jehoshaphat, who ruled Judah, went to [visit] King Ahab, who ruled Israel.
Eia hoi kekahi, i ke kolu o ka makahiki, iho ae la o Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda i ke alii o ka Iseraela.
3 [While they were talking, ] Ahab said to his officials, “Do you realize that the Syrians are still occupying our city of Ramoth in [the] Gilead [region]? And we are doing nothing to retake that city!”
Olelo mai ke alii o Iseraela i kana poe kauwa, Ua ike anei oukou, no kakou o Ramotagileada, a noho malie kakou, aole lawe mai mai loko mai o ka lima o ke alii o Suria?
4 Then he turned to Jehoshaphat and asked, “Will your [army] join my [army] to fight against the people of Ramoth [and retake that city]?” Jehoshaphat replied, “[Certainly] I [will do whatever] you [want], and you may command my troops. You may take my horses into battle, also.”
I mai la hoi oia ia Iehosapata, E hele anei oe me au i ke kaua ia Ramotagileada? I aku la hoi o Iehosapata i ke alii o Iseraela, Ua like no wau me oe, a me ko'u poe kanaka me kou poe kanaka, a me ko'u poe lio, me kou poe lio.
5 Then he added, “But we should ask Yahweh first, to find out what he wants us to do.”
Olelo aku la hoi o Iehosapata i ko alii o Iseraela, Ke noi aku nei au e ninau oe i keia la ma ka olelo a Iehova.
6 So Ahab summoned about 400 of his prophets together, and he asked them, “Should my [army] go to fight the people in Ramoth and retake that city, or not?” They answered, “Yes, go [and attack them], because God will enable your [army] to defeat them.”
Alaila houluulu ae la ke alii o Iseraela i na kaula, eha haneri kanaka paha, ninau aku la ia lakou, E pii anei au i Ramotagileada e kaua, aole paha, ea? Hai mai la hoi lakou, E pii, no ka mea, e haawi mai no ka Haku ia ia iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
7 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there no prophet of Yahweh here whom we can ask?”
Ninau aku la o Iehosapata, Aohe anei he kaula e ae a Iehova maanei, e hiki ia kaua ke ninau ia ia?
8 The King of Israel replied, “There is one man we can talk to. We can ask him if he can find out what Yahweh wants. His name is Micaiah; he is the son of Imlah. But I hate him, because when he (prophesies/tells what God says to him) he never says [that] anything good [will happen] to me. He always predicts [that] bad things [will happen to me].” Jehoshaphat replied, “King Ahab, you should not say that!”
Hai mai la ke alii o Iseraela ia Iehosapata, Hookahi kanaka i koe, o Mikaia ke kiekie a Imela, e hiki ia kaua ke ninau ia Iehova ma o na la; aka, ke hoowahawaha aku nei au ia ia, no ka mea, aole ia i wanana mai i ka maikai no'u, i ka ino wale no. I aku la o Iehosapata, Mai olelo mai ke alii pela.
9 So the king of Israel told one of his officers to summon Micaiah immediately.
Alaila kahea aku la ke alii o Iseraela i kekahi luna, i aku la, E hoolalelale mai ia Mikaia ke keiki a Imela.
10 The king of Israel and the king of Judah were wearing their (royal robes/robes that showed that they were kings). They were sitting on thrones at the place where people threshed grain, near the gate of Samaria [city]. All of Ahab’s prophets were standing in front of the kings, (prophesying/predicting what was going to happen).
Noho iho la ke alii o Iseraela, a me Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda, kela a me keia ma kona nohoalii iho, ua komo laua i ko laua mau kapa alii, ma kahi akea ma ke komo ana ma ka ipuka o Samaria; a wanana ae la ka poe kaula a pau imua o laua.
11 One of them, whose name was Zedekiah, the son of Kenaanah, had made from iron [something that resembled] horns of a bull. Then he proclaimed [to Ahab], “This is what Yahweh says: ‘With horns like these your [army] will keep attacking the Syrians [like a bull attacks another animal] [MET], until you completely destroy them!’”
Hana iho la o Zedekia ke keiki a Kenaana i mau kiwi hao nona iho: i mai la hoi ia. Me neia mau mea e pahu aku ai oe i ko Suria, a pau ae lakou.
12 All the [other] prophets [of Ahab] agreed. They said, “Yes! If you go up to attack Ramoth [city] in [the] Gilead [region], you will be successful, because Yahweh will enable you to defeat them!”
Pela i wanana ai ka poe kaula a pau, i ka i ana mai, E pii i Ramotagileada, a e pomaikai; no ka mea, e haawi mai no Iehova iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
13 Meanwhile, the messenger who went to summon Micaiah said to him, “Listen to me! All the other prophets are predicting that the king’s army will defeat the Syrians. So be sure that you agree with them and say (what will be favorable/that the king’s army will be successful).”
A o ka luna i hele e kahea ia Mikaia, olelo aku la oia ia ia, i aku la, Aia hoi, o na olelo a ka poe kaula, he maikai i ke alii me ka waha hookahi; a ke noi aku nei au, e like kau olelo me ka olelo a kekahi o lakou, e olelo hoi oe ma ka maikai.
14 But Micaiah replied, “As surely as Yahweh lives, I will tell him only what Yahweh tells me to say.”
I mai la hoi o Mikaia, Ma ke ola ana o Iehova, o ka Iehova i olelo mai ai ia'u, oia ka'u e hai aku ai.
15 When Micaiah came to Ahab, Ahab asked him, “Micaiah, should we go to fight against [the people of] Ramoth, or not?” Micaiah replied, “Sure, go! Yahweh will enable your army to defeat them!”
Hele mai la oia i ke alii. A ninau aku la ke alii ia ia, E Mikaia, e pii ku e anei makou i Ramotagileada e kaua aku, aole paha ia? I mai la oia ia ia, E pii a e pomaikai; no ka mea, e haawi mai no o Iehova iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
16 But King Ahab [realized that Micaiah was (lying/being sarcastic), so he] said to Micaiah, “I have told you [RHQ] many times that you must always tell only the truth when you say what Yahweh [has revealed to you]!”
Olelo hou aku la ke alii ia ia, Ehia auanei ko'u mau manawa e kauoha aku ai ia oe e hai mai i ka mea pololei wale no ma ka inoa o Iehova?
17 So Micaiah said to him, “[The truth is that] in a vision I saw all the troops of Israel scattered on the mountains. They seemed to be like sheep that did not have a shepherd. And Yahweh said, ‘Their master has been killed. So tell them all to go home peacefully.’”
I mai la hoi oia, Ua ike au i ka Iseraela e hele liilii ana maluna o na puu, e like me na hipa kahu ole: a olelo mai la Iehova, Aole o lakou haku, a hoi lakou, kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho me ka maluhia.
18 Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “I told you [RHQ] that he never predicts [that] anything good [will happen to me]! He [always] predicts [that] bad things [will happen to me].”
I mai la ke alii o Iseraela ia Iehosapata, Aole anei i hai aku au ia oe, Aole o ka maikai kana e wanana mai ai no'u, aka, o ka ino?
19 But Micaiah continued, saying, “Listen to what Yahweh showed to me! [In a vision] I saw Yahweh sitting on his throne, with all the armies of heaven surrounding him, on his right side and on his left side.
I hou mai la kela, Nolaila e hoolohe mai i ka olelo a Iehova: Ua ike au ia Iehova e noho ana maluna o kona nohoalii, a e ku kokoke ana ia ia ko ka lani a pau ma kona lima akau a ma kona lima hema.
20 And Yahweh said, ‘Who can persuade Ahab to go to fight against the people of Ramoth, in order that he may be killed there?’ Some suggested one thing, and others suggested something else.
Ninau mai la o Iehova, Owai la ka mea e malimali ia Ahaba e pii, a e haule ma Ramotagileada? Hai aku la kekahi penei, a o kekahi penei.
21 Finally one [evil] spirit came to Yahweh and said, ‘I can do it!’
Hele mai kekahi uhane, a ku iho la imua o Iehova, i aku la, Owau no ke malimali aku ia ia.
22 Yahweh asked him, ‘How will you do it?’ The spirit replied, ‘I will go and inspire all of Ahab’s prophets to tell lies.’ Yahweh said, ‘You will be successful; go and do it!’
Ninau mai la hoi o Iehova ia ia, Pehea la? Hai aku la oia, E hele au a e lilo i uhane wahahee iloko o ka waha o kana poe kaula a pau. I mai la hoi oia, E malimali auanei oe ia ia, a e lanakila no hoi; e hele aku, a e hana pela.
23 So now [I tell you that] Yahweh has caused all of your prophets to lie to you. Yahweh has decided that something terrible will happen to you.”
Eia hoi, ua haawi mai nei o Iehova i ka uhane wahahee iloko o ka waha o keia poe kaula au a pau, a ua olelo mai o Iehova i ka ino nou.
24 Then Zedekiah walked over to Micaiah and slapped him on his face. He said, “Do you think that Yahweh’s Spirit left me in order to speak to you?” [RHQ]
Hookokoke ae la no nae o Zedekia ke keiki a Kenaana, a kui aku la ia Mikaia ma kona papalina, ninau aku la, Ma ka aoao hea i hele ai ka uhane o Iehova mai o'u aku nei e olelo aku ia oe?
25 Micaiah replied, “You will find out for yourself [which of us Yahweh’s Spirit has truly spoken to] on the day when you go into a room of some house to hide [from the Syrian troops]!”
I mai la o Mikaia, Aia hoi, e ike no oe, i ka la e komo aku ai oe iloko o ke keena oloko e pee iho.
26 King Ahab commanded [his soldiers], “Seize Micaiah and take him to Amon, the governor of this city, and to my son Joash.
Kena ae la no hoi ke alii o Iseraela, E lalau ia Mikaia, a e hoihoi ia ia io Amona la, i ke alii kiaaina o ke kulanakauhale, a io Ioasa la ke keiki a ke alii;
27 Tell them that I have commanded that they should put this man in prison and give him only bread and water. Do not give him anything else to eat until I return safely from the battle!”
A e olelo aku, Ke i mai nei ke alii, E hahao ia ia nei iloko o ka halepaahao, a e hanai ia ia me ka berena o ka popilikia, a me ka wai o ka popilikia, a hiki i ka wa e hoi pomaikai mai ai au.
28 Micaiah replied, “If you return safely, [it will be clear that] it was not Yahweh who told me what to say to you!” Then he said [to all those who were standing there], “Do not forget what I have said [to King Ahab]!”
Olelo mai la o Mikaia, Ina e hoi mai oe me ka pomaikai, aole i olelo mai o Iehova ma o'u nei. I mai la hoi oia, E hoolohe, e na kanaka a pau loa.
29 So the King of Israel and the King of Judah [led their armies] to Ramoth, in [the] Gilead [region].
Pela i pii ai ke alii o Iseraela a me Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda i Ramotagileada.
30 King Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “I will put on different clothes, [in order that no one will recognize that I am the king]. But you should wear your (royal robe/robe that shows that you are a king).” So Ahab disguised himself, and they both went into the battle.
Olelo mai la ke alii o Iseraela ia Iehosapata, E hoonalonalo iho au ia'u iho e hele iloko o ke kaua, aka, e aahu oe i kou kapa alii. Hoonalonalo iho la ke alii o Iseraela ia ia iho, a hele aku la iloko o ke kaua.
31 The King of Syria told this to his thirty-two men who were driving the chariots: “Attack only the king of Israel!”
Kauoha ae la ke alii o Suria i kana mau lunakoa he kanakolu kumamalua, maluna o kona mau kaa, i ae la, Aole i ka mea uuku, aole i ka mea nui e kaua aku ai oukou, i ke alii o Iseraela wale no.
32 So when the men who were driving the Syrian chariots saw Jehoshaphat [wearing (his royal robes/clothes that showed he was the king)], they pursued him. They shouted, “There is the king of Israel!” But when Jehoshaphat cried out,
Eia kekahi, i ka ike ana mai o na lunakaa ia lehosapata, i iho la lakou, Oiaio, o ke alii keia o Iseraela. A huli ae la lakou e kaua ia ia; a auwe iho la o lehosapata.
33 they realized that he was not the king of Israel. So they stopped pursuing him.
Eia hoi kekahi, i ka ike ana o na lunakaa aole oia ke alii o Iseraela, huli hope ae la lakou mai ka hahai ana ia ia.
34 But one [Syrian] soldier shot an arrow at Ahab, without knowing that it was Ahab. The arrow struck Ahab between the places where the parts of his armor joined together. Ahab told the driver of his chariot, “Turn the chariot around and take me out of here! I have been severely wounded!”
Lena walewale ae la kekahi kanaka i ke kakaka, a ku ia ia ke alii o Iseraela mawaena o na ami o ka paleumauma. Nolaila i olelo aku ai oia i ka mea hooholo i kona kaa, E hoohuli i kou lima, a e lawe aku ia'u mai loko aku o ka poe kaua, no ka mea, ua eha au.
35 The battle continued all the day. Ahab was sitting propped up in his chariot, facing the Syrian troops. The blood from his wound ran down to the floor of the chariot. And late in the afternoon he died.
A mahuahua ae ke kaua ia la, a ua paipaiia'e ke alii iloko o kona kaa e ku e ana i ko Suria, a i ke ahiahi, make iho la ia: a kahe iho la ke koko mai loko iho o ka eha a waena konu o ke kaa.
36 Just as the sun was going down, someone among the Israeli troops shouted, “[The battle is ended!] Everyone should return home!”
Laha ae la ka olelo a puni ka poe kaua i ka napoo ana o ka la, e i ana, O kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho, a o kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona aina iho.
37 So king Ahab died, and they took his body [in the chariot] to Samaria [city] and buried his body there.
Pela i make ai ke alii, a ua laweia mai i Samaria; a kanu iho la lakou i ke alii ma Samaria.
38 They washed his chariot alongside the pool in Samaria, a pool where the prostitutes bathed. And dogs [came and] licked the king’s blood, just like Yahweh had predicted would happen.
Holoi ae la kekahi i ke kaa maloko o ka wai auau o Samaria, a palu ae la na ilio i ke koko, a holoi ae la lakou i kona mea kaua, e like me ka Iehova olelo, ana i olelo mai ai.
39 The account/record of the other things that happened while Ahab was ruling, and about the palace decorated with much ivory [that they built for him], and the cities that were built for him, was written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
A o na hana e ae a Ahaba, a me ka mea a pau ana i hana'i, a me ka hale niho elepani ana i kukulu ai, a me na kulanakauhale ana i kukulu ai, aole anei i kakauia lakou ma ka buke oihana a na lii o ka Iseraela?
40 When Ahab died, his body was buried where his ancestors were buried. Then his son Ahaziah became king.
Pela i hiamoe ai o Ahaba me kona mau makua; a alii ae la o Ahazia kana keiki i kona hakahaka.
41 Before King Ahab died, when he had been ruling in Israel for four years, Asa’s son Jehoshaphat started to rule in Judah.
Hoomaka iho la o Iehosapata ke keiki a Asa i kona alii ana maluna o Iuda, i ka ha o ka makahiki o Ahaba ke alii o Iseraela.
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he started to rule, and he ruled in Jerusalem for twenty-five years. His mother was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.
He kanakolu kumamalima mau makahiki o Iehosapata i ka wa i hoomaka ai oia i kona alii ana, a he iwakalua kumamalima makahiki i alii ai oia maloko o Ierusalema; a o Azuba ka inoa o kona makuwahine ke kaikamahine a Silehi.
43 Jehoshaphat was a good king, just like his father Asa had been. He did things that pleased Yahweh. But while he was king, he did not remove all the pagan altars [that the people had built] on the hilltops. So the people continued to offer sacrifices [to idols] on those altars and burned incense there.
Hele ae hoi oia ma na aoao a pau o Asa kona makuakane, aole oia i kapae ae mai laila ae, e hana ana i ka mea pono ma na maka o Iehova; aka, aole i hoopauia'e na wahi kiekie; kaumaha ae la na kanaka, a kuni ae la i ka mea ala ma na wahi kiekie.
44 Jehoshaphat also made [a] peace [agreement] with the king of Israel.
Hookuikahi like ae la o Iehosapata me ke alii o Iseraela.
45 All the other things that happened while Jehoshaphat was ruling, and the great things that he did and the victories his [troops] won, are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
A o na hana e ae a Iehosapata, a me kona ikaika ana i hoike ai, a me kona kaua ana, aole anei ia i kakauia ma ka buke oihana a na alii o Iuda.
46 Jehoshaphat’s father Asa [had tried to expel] the male prostitutes that stayed at the pagan shrines, but some of them were still there. Jehoshaphat got rid of them.
A o ke koena o na moeaikane e koe ana i na la o Asa kona makuakane, oia kana i lawe ai mai ka aina aku.
47 At that time, there was no king in Edom; a ruler who had been appointed by Jehoshaphat ruled there.
Ilaila aole alii ma Edoma; he kiaaina ke alii.
48 Jehoshaphat [ordered some Israeli men to] build a fleet/group of ships to sail [south] to [the] Ophir [region] to get gold. But they were wrecked at Ezion-Geber/Elath, so the ships never sailed.
Hana iho la hoi o Iehosapata i na moku ma Taresisa e holo i Opira e kii i gula, aole nae i holo lakou, no ka mea, ua nahaha ua mau moku la, ma Ezionagebera.
49 Before the ships were wrecked, Ahab’s son Ahaziah suggested to Jehoshaphat, “Allow my sailors to go with your sailors,” but Jehoshaphat refused.
Alaila olelo mai la o Ahazia ke keiki a Ahaba, ia Iehosapata, E hele pu paha ka'u mau kauwa, me kau mau kauwa, ma ia mau moku; aole hoi o Iehosapata i ae aku.
50 When Jehoshaphat died, his [body] was buried where his ancestors were buried in [Jerusalem, ] the city where King David [had ruled]. Then Jehoshaphat’s son Jehoram became king.
Hiamoe iho la o Iehosapata me kona mau makua, a ua kanuia iho la me kona mau makua, ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida kona kupuna: a alii ae la o Iehorama kana keiki i kona hakahaka.
51 Before King Jehoshaphat died, when he had been ruling in Judah for 17 years, Ahab’s son Ahaziah began to rule in Israel. Ahaziah ruled in Samaria for two years.
Hoomaka ae la o Ahazia ke keiki a Ahaba i kona alii ana maluna o ka Iseraela ma Samaria, i ka umikumamahiku o ka makahiki o Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda, elua makahiki i alii ai oia maluna o ka Iseraela.
52 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, doing the [evil] things that his father and mother had done and the evil things that Jeroboam had done—the king who had led all the Israeli people to sin [by worshiping idols].
Hana hewa ae la hoi oia imua o Iehova, a hele ae la hoi ma ka aoao o kona makuakane, a ma ka aoao o kona makuwahine, a ma ka aoao hoi o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata ka mea i hoolilo i ka Iseraela e lawehala.
53 Ahaziah bowed in front of Baal’s idol and worshiped it. That caused Yahweh, the God who was the true God of the Israeli people, to become very angry, just as Ahaziah’s father had caused Yahweh to become angry.
No ka mea, ua malama oia ia Baala, a hoomana aku la ia ia, a ua hoonaukiuki aku ia Iehova i ke Akua o Iseraela, e like me ka mea a pau a kona makuakane i hana aku ai.
