2 Chronicles 18
1 Now Jehoshaphat had great riches and honor; he allied himself with Ahab by having one of his family marry his daughter.
Nanañ’asy naho vara tsi-efa t’Iehosafate; f’ie nifampilongo amy Akabe am-panambaliañe.
2 After some years, he went down to Ahab in Samaria. Ahab killed many sheep and oxen for him and the people who were with him. Ahab also persuaded him to attack Ramoth Gilead with him.
Ie taoñe maromaro añe, le nizotso mb’amy Akabe e Somerone mb’eo. Nandenta añondry naho añombe ho aze naho ho amo mpiama’eo t’i Akabe vaho sinigì’e hindre-lia ama’e mb’e Ramote-gilade mb’eo.
3 Ahab, king of Israel, said to Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, “Will you go with me to Ramoth Gilead?” Jehoshaphat answered him, “I am like you, and my people are like your people. We will be with you in the war.”
Fa hoe t’i Akabe mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda: Hindre-lia amako hao irehe mb’e Ramote-Gilade mb’eo? Le hoe ty natoi’e: Manahak’ azo iraho, naho ondatikoo hoe ondati’oo, vaho ho mpiama’o añ’aly zahay.
4 Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “Please first seek the word of Yahweh for your answer.”
Fe hoe t’Iehosafate amy mpanjaka’ Israeley: Ehe, añontaneo heike ty tsara’ Iehovà.
5 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, “Should we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or should I not?” They said, “Attack, for God will give it into the hand of the king.”
Natonto’ i Akabe amy zao o mpitokio, ondaty efa-jato, le nanoa’e ty hoe; Hionjomb’e Ramote-gilade hihotakotake hao tika, he hifonen-draho? Le hoe iereo: Mionjona, amy t’ie hatolon’ Añahare am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
6 But Jehoshaphat said, “Is there not here still another prophet of Yahweh with whom we might seek advice?”
Fe hoe t’Iehosafate: Tsy amam-pitoki’ Iehovà hao ty atoy, hañontanean-tika?
7 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “There is still one man by whom we may seek the advice of Yahweh, Micaiah son of Imlah, but I hate him because he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil.” But Jehoshaphat said, “The king should not say that.”
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate: Mbe eo t’indaty mete hampañontanean-tika am’ Iehovà, f’ie hejeko; fa le lia’e tsy itokia’e ty hasoa, toe nainai’e raty; i Mikaià ana’ Imlà ‘nio. Le hoe t’Iehosafate; Ehe tsy hanao izay ty mpanjaka.
8 Then the king of Israel called an officer and said, “Quickly bring Micaiah son of Imlah.”
Aa le tinoka’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley ty mpifehe ami’ty hoe: Hitrifo masika t’i Mikaià ana’ Imlà.
9 Now Ahab the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on a throne, clothed in their robes, in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
Songa niambesatse amy fiambesa’ey ty mpanjaka’ Israele naho Iehosafate, nisikiñe saro-mireparepa, le niambesatse an-toem-pifofohañe an-dalambei’ i Somerone eo vaho sindre nitoky añatrefa’ iereo eo o mpitokio.
10 Zedekiah son of Kenaanah made himself horns of iron and said, “Yahweh says this: With these you will push the Arameans until they are consumed.”
Le niranjie’ i Tsidkià ana’ i Kenaanà ty tsifam-biñe vaho nanao ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Iretoañe ty hitrofaha’o o nte-Arameo ampara t’ie mongotse.
11 All the prophets prophesied the same, saying, “Attack Ramoth Gilead and win, for Yahweh has given it into the hand of the king.”
Le sambe nitoky o mpitokio nanao ty hoe: Mionjona mb’e Ramote-Gilade, le mihenefa; fa hatolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
12 The messenger who went to summon Micaiah said to him, “Look, the words of the prophets with one mouth are favorable to the king. Let your words agree with theirs, and speak favorably.”
Nanao ty hoe amy Mikaià i mpihitrike nitok’ azey: Inao! songa mitoky hasoa amy mpanjakay o mpitokio, aa ehe te hindray ami’ty raik’ am’iereo ty saontsi’o vaho mitaroña hasoa.
13 Micaiah replied, “As Yahweh lives, it is what God says that I will say.”
Le hoe t’i Mikaià: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, ze tsaraen’ Añahareko, izay ty ho volañeko.
14 When he came to the king, the king said to him, “Micaiah, should we go to Ramoth Gilead for battle, or not?” Micaiah answered him, “Attack and be victorious! For it will be a great victory.”
Ie pok’ amy mpanjakay, le hoe i mpanjakay ama’e: O Mikaià, hañavelo mb’e Ramote-gilade mb’eo hao zahay hialy he hifoneñako? le hoe re; Mionjona le mandreketa, fa hatolotse am-pità’o.
15 Then the king said to him, “How many times must I require you to swear to tell me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?”
Le hoe i mpanjakay tama’e: Impire ty nandiliako azo ty tsy hivolañe ndra inoñ’ inoñe naho tsy ty hahiti’e amy tahina’ Iehovày?
16 So Micaiah said, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, like sheep who have no shepherd, and Yahweh said, 'These have no shepherd. Let every man return to his house in peace.'”
Le hoe re: Nitreako te niparaitak’ an-kaboañe ey iaby t’Israele hoe añondry tsy amam-piarake; le hoe t’Iehovà; Tsy amam-piarake iretoañe, apoho songa himpoly mb’an-kiboho’e an-kanintsiñe ondatio.
17 So the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but only disaster?”
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate; Tsy vinolako hao t’ie tsy hitoky hasoa amako, fa raty?
18 Then Micaiah said, “Therefore all of you should hear the word of Yahweh: I saw Yahweh sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven were standing on his right hand and on his left.
le natovo’e ty hoe, Janjiño arè ty tsara’ Iehovà: Nitreako niambesatse am-piambesa’ey t’Iehovà, le nijohañe ampità’e havana naho havia’e eo iaby i valobohòn-dikerañey.
19 Yahweh said, 'Who will entice Ahab, king of Israel, so that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?' One said this and another that.
Le hoe t’Iehovà: Ia ty hanigike i Akabe mpanjaka’ Israele, hampionjone’e mb’ eo hikorovoke e Ramote-gilade añe? Aa le inao ty raike, le inay ka ty ila’e.
20 Then a spirit came forward and it stood before Yahweh and said, 'I will entice him.' Yahweh said to him, 'How?'
Loneake amy zao ty fañahy nijohañe añatrefa’ Iehovà, nanao ty hoe: Izaho ty hanjizy aze. Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e: Akore?
21 The spirit replied, 'I will go out and I will become a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' Yahweh replied, 'You will entice him, and you will also be successful. Go now and do so.'
Le hoe re, Hionjomb’eo iraho ho fañahin-dremborake am-palie’ o mpitoki’e iabio. Le hoe re: Toe ho sigihe’o vaho hañeneke; akia, ano.
22 Now see, Yahweh has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these prophets of yours, and Yahweh has decreed disaster for you.”
Aa le ingo te nampipoha’ Iehovà am-palie’ o mpitoki’o reo ty fañahy mandañitse; fa toe hankàñe ty nitsara’ Iehovà azo.
23 Then Zedekiah son of Kenaanah, came up, slapped Micaiah on the cheek, and said, “Which way did the Spirit of Yahweh take to go from me to speak to you?”
Nañarine aze t’i Tsidkià ana’ i Kenaanà, le tinampifi’e ty fiambina’ i Mikaià vaho nanao ty hoe: Nimb’ aia ty fañahi’ Iehovà boak’ amako hivolañe ama’o?
24 Micaiah said, “Look, you will know that on that day, when you run into some inner room to hide.”
Le hoe t’i Mikaià: Inao! ho isa’o amy andro himoaha’o an-traño añate’e ao hietaha’oy.
25 The king of Israel said to some servants, “You people seize Micaiah and take him to Amon, the governor of the city, and to Joash, my son.
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele, Endeso t’i Mikaià, le ampolio amy Amone mpifehe’ i rovay naho am’ Ioase anam-panjaka ao;
26 You people will say to him, 'The king says: Put this man in prison and feed him with only a little bread and only a little water, until I return safely.'”
le ano ty hoe: Hoe i mpanjakay: Apoho an-drohy ao tia; vaho fahano mofon-kasotriañe naho ranom-pijaleañe, ampara’ te mimpoly an-kanintsin-draho.
27 Then Micaiah said, “If you return safely, then Yahweh has not spoken by me.” Then he added, “Listen to this, all you people.”
Le hoe t’i Mikaià, Aa kanao himpoly an-kanintsin-drehe, tsy nitsara añamako t’Iehovà. Le hoe re: Janjiño izay ry ondatio, inahareo iaby.
28 So Ahab, the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up against Ramoth Gilead.
Aa le nionjoñe mb’e Ramote-gilade mb’eo i mpanjaka’ Israeley naho Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
29 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and go into the battle, but you put on your royal robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself, and they went into the battle.
Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate; Hihonohono iraho te hizilik’ an-kotakotak’ ao; f’ihe ka, aombeo o saro’o mireparepao. Aa le nañonohono-vatañe i mpanjaka’ Israeley; vaho nimoak’ an-kotakotak’ ao iereo.
30 Now the king of Aram had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying, “Do not attack the unimportant or the important soldiers. Instead, attack only the king of Israel.”
Fe hoe ty nafanto’ i mpanjaka’ i Aramey amo mpifehen-tsarete’eo; Ko ialia’o ty kedeke ndra ty bey naho tsy i mpanjaka’ Israeley avao.
31 It came about that when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat they said, “That is the king of Israel.” They turned around to attack him, but Jehoshaphat cried out, and Yahweh helped him. God turned them away from him.
Ie amy zao naho niisa’ o mpifehen-tsareteo t’Iehosafate le hoe iereo: Ingo i mpanjaka’ Israeley. Aa le nitoliha’ iareo hialy; fe nikoike t’Iehosafate le nañolotse aze t’Iehovà vaho niroroten’ Añahare iereo hisitake.
32 It came about that when the commanders of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
Aa ie nirendre’ o mpifehe sareteo t’ie tsy i mpanjaka’ Israeley le nivalike tsy nihoridaña’e.
33 But a certain man drew his bow at random and shot the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. Then Ahab said to the driver of his chariot, “Turn around and carry me out of the battle, for I am badly wounded.”
Fe teo t’indaty nampivoho-pale tsinahi’e nahatrofake i mpanjaka’ Israeley añivo’ o fikala’e ambane naho i aron’ araña’ey, le hoe re amy mpinday saretey; Ampivioño o fità’oo, le ampiavoto amy valobohòkey iraho fa loho-fere.
34 The battle grew worse that day, and the king of Israel was held up in his chariot facing the Arameans until the evening. About the time that the sun was going down, he died.
Niindra avao i hotakotakey amy andro zay; ie amy zao nahafijohañe an-tsarete ao niatreke o nte-Arameo i mpanjaka’ Israeley am-para’ te hariva; le nihomake te nitsofotse i àndroy.
