1 Kings 22
1 Therfor thre yeeris passiden with out batel bitwixe Sirie and Israel.
Kwa zaka zitatu panalibe nkhondo pakati pa Aramu ndi Israeli.
2 Forsothe in the thridde yeer Josephat, king of Juda, yede doun to the kyng of Israel.
Koma pa chaka chachitatu, Yehosafati mfumu ya ku Yuda anapita kukacheza ndi mfumu ya ku Israeli.
3 And the kyng of Israel seide to hise seruauntis, Witen ye not, that Ramoth of Galaad is oure, and we ben necgligent to take it fro the hoond of the kyng of Sirie?
Mfumu ya ku Israeli nʼkuti itawuza atumiki ake kuti, “Kodi inu simukudziwa kuti Ramoti Giliyadi ndi dera lathu ndipo ife palibe chimene tikuchita kuti tilitenge deralo mʼmanja mwa mfumu ya Aramu?”
4 And he seide to Josaphat, Whether thou schalt come with me to fiyte in to Ramoth of Galaad?
Tsono iye anafunsa Yehosafati kuti, “Kodi udzapita nane ku nkhondo ku Ramoti Giliyadi?” Yehosafati anayankha mfumu ya ku Israeli kuti, “Ine ndili monga inu, anthu anga monga anthu anu, akavalo anga monga akavalo anu.”
5 And Josophat seide to the kyng of Israel, As Y am, so and thou; my puple and thi puple ben oon; and my knyytis and thy knyytis `ben oon. And Josephat seide to the kyng of Israel, Y preie thee, axe thou to dai the word of the Lord.
Koma Yehosafati anawuzanso mfumu ya ku Israeli kuti, “Poyamba mupemphe nzeru kwa Yehova.”
6 Therfor the kyng of Israel gaderide prophetis aboute foure hundrid men, and he seide to hem, Owe Y to go in to Ramoth of Galaad to fiyte, ethir to reste? Whiche answeriden, Stie thou, and the Lord schal yyue it in the hond of the kyng.
Choncho mfumu ya Israeli inasonkhanitsa pamodzi aneneri okwanira 400, ndipo inawafunsa kuti, “Kodi ndipite kukathira nkhondo Ramoti Giliyadi, kapena ndileke?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Pitani, pakuti Ambuye waupereka mzindawo mʼmanja mwa mfumu.”
7 Forsothe Josephat seide, Is not here ony profete of the Lord, that we axe bi hym?
Koma Yehosafati anafunsa kuti, “Kodi kuno kulibenso mneneri wina wa Yehova kumene ife tingakafunsireko nzeru?”
8 And the kyng of Israel seide to Josephat, O man, Mychee, sone of Hiemla, is left, bi whom we moun axe the Lord; but Y hate hym, for he prophesieth not good to me, but yuel. To whome Josephat seide, Kyng, spek thou not so.
Mfumu ya ku Israeli inayankha Yehosafati kuti, “Alipo munthu mmodzi amene ife tingakafunsire kwa Yehova, koma ndimadana naye chifukwa iyeyo samanenera kanthu kalikonse kabwino ka ine, koma zoyipa nthawi zonse. Dzina lake ndi Mikaya mwana wa Imula.” Yehosafati anayankha kuti, “Mfumu musatero.”
9 Therfor the kyng of Israel clepide summe chaumburleyn, and seide to hym, Haste thou to brynge Mychee, sone of Hiemla.
Choncho mfumu ya Israeli inayitana mmodzi mwa atumiki ake ndipo inati, “Kayitane Mikaya mwana wa Imula msangamsanga.”
10 Forsothe the kyng of Israel, and Josephat, kyng of Juda, saten, ech in his trone, clothid with kyngis ournement, in the large hows bisidis the dore of the yate of Samarie; and alle prophetis prophecieden in the siyt of hem.
Atavala mikanjo yawo yaufumu, mfumu ya ku Israeli ndi Yehosafati mfumu ya ku Yuda anakhala pa mipando yawo yaufumu pabwalo lopondera tirigu pafupi ndi chipata cha Samariya, pamodzi ndi aneneri onse akunenera pamaso pawo.
11 Also Sedechie, sone of Chanaan, made to hym silf hornes of yrun, and seide, The Lord God seith these thingis, With these thou schalt scatere Sirye, til thou do awei it.
Tsono Zedekiya mwana wa Kenaana nʼkuti atapanga nyanga zachitsulo ndipo iye ananenera kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Ndi nyanga izi, inu mudzagunda nazo Aaramu mpaka iwo atawonongeka.’”
12 And alle prophetis prophecieden in lijk maner, and seiden, Stye thou in to Ramoth of Galaad, and go thou with prosperite; and the Lord schal bitake thin enemyes in the hond of the kyng.
Aneneri ena onse ananenera zomwezonso. Iwo anati, “Kathireni nkhondo Ramoti Giliyadi ndipo mukapambana, pakuti Yehova adzawupereka mzindawo mʼdzanja la mfumu.”
13 Sotheli the messanger, that yede to clepe Mychee, spak to hym, and seide, Lo! the wordis of prophetis with o mouth prechen goodis to the kyng; therfor thi word be lijk hem, and speke thou goodis.
Wamthenga amene anapita kukayitana Mikaya anamuwuza kuti, “Taonani, aneneri onse monga munthu mmodzi akunenera za kupambana kwa mfumu. Mawu anunso akhale ogwirizana ndi mawu awo, ndipo mukayankhule zabwino.”
14 To whom Mychee seide, The Lord lyueth, for what euer thing the Lord schal seie to me, Y schal speke this.
Koma Mikaya anati, “Pali Yehova wamoyo, ine ndikawawuza zokhazo zimene Yehova akandiwuze.”
15 Therfor he cam to the kyng. And the kyng seide to hym, Mychee, owen we go in to Ramoth of Galaad to fiyte, ether ceesse? To which kyng he answeride, Stie thou, and go in prosperite; and the Lord schal bitake it `in to the hond of the kyng.
Atafika, Ahabu anamufunsa kuti, “Mikaya, kodi tipite kukathira nkhondo Ramoti Giliyadi, kapena tileke?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Pitani ndipo mukapambana, pakuti Yehova adzawupereka mzindawo mʼdzanja la mfumu.”
16 Forsothe the kyng seide to hym, Eft and eft Y coniure thee, that thou speke not to me, not but that that is soth in the name of the Lord.
Ahabu anati kwa iye, “Kodi ndikulumbiritse kangati kuti undiwuze zoona zokhazokha mʼdzina la Yehova?”
17 And he seide, Y siy al Israel scaterid in the hillis, as scheep not hauynge a scheepherde; and the Lord seide, These han no lord, ech man turne ayen in to his hows in pees.
Pamenepo Mikaya anayankha kuti, “Ndinaona Aisraeli onse atamwazikana pa mapiri ngati nkhosa zopanda mʼbusa, ndipo Yehova anati, ‘Anthu awa alibe mbuye wawo. Aliyense apite kwawo mwamtendere.’”
18 Therfor the kyng of Israel seide to Josaphat, Whethir Y seide not to thee, that he prophecieth not good to me, but euere yuel?
Mfumu ya ku Israeli inati kwa Yehosafati, “Kodi ine sindinakuwuzeni kuti ameneyu samanenera kanthu kalikonse kabwino ka ine, koma zoyipa zokhazokha?”
19 Sotheli thilke Mychee addide, and seide, Therefore here thou the word of the Lord; Y siy the Lord sittynge on his trone, and Y siy al the oost of heuene stondynge nyy hym, on the riyt side and on the left side.
Mikaya anapitiriza kuyankhula nati, “Tsono imvani mawu a Yehova: Ine ndinaona Yehova atakhala pa mpando wake waufumu, gulu lonse la kumwamba litayima ku dzanja lake lamanja ndi ku dzanja lake lamanzere.
20 And the Lord seide, Who schal disseyue Achab, kyng of Israel, that he stye, and falle in Ramoth of Galaad? And oon seide siche wordis, and another in anothir maner.
Ndipo Yehova anati, ‘Kodi ndani amene akamukope Ahabu kuti akathire nkhondo Ramoti Giliyadi, nʼkukafera komweko?’” “Wina anapereka maganizo ena ndipo winanso maganizo ena.
21 Sotheli a spirit yede out, and stood bifor the Lord, and seide, Y schal disseyue hym. To whom the Lord spak, In what thing?
Potsirizira, mzimu wina unabwera ndi kuyima pamaso pa Yehova ndipo unati, ‘Ine ndidzamukopa.’”
22 And he seide, Y schal go out, and Y schal be a spirit of leesyng in the mouth of alle hise prophetis. And the Lord seide, Thou schalt disseyue, and schalt haue the maystry; go thou out, and do so.
Yehova anafunsa kuti, “Ukamukopa bwanji?” Mzimuwo unati, “Ndidzapita ndi kukakhala mzimu wabodza pakamwa pa aneneri ake onse.” Yehova anati, “‘Iwe udzamukopadi. Pita kachite zomwezo.’
23 Now therfor, lo! the Lord yaf a spirit of leesyng in the mouth of alle prophetis that ben here; and the Lord spak yuel ayens thee.
“Ndipo tsopano taonani, Yehova wayika mzimu wabodza mʼkamwa mwa aneneri anu onsewa. Yehova waneneratu kuti mukaona mavuto.”
24 Forsothe Sedechie, sone of Canaan, neiyede, and smoot Mychee on the cheke, and seide, Whether the Spirit of the Lord forsook me, and spak to thee?
Pamenepo Zedekiya mwana wa Kenaana anapita pafupi namenya Mikaya patsaya. Iye anafunsa Mikaya kuti, “Kodi mzimu wa Yehova unadzera njira iti pamene umatuluka mwa ine kuti uziyankhula ndi iwe?”
25 And Mychee seide, Thou schalt se in that dai, whanne thou schalt go in to closet with ynne closet, that thou be hid.
Mikaya anayankha kuti, “Udzaona pa tsiku limene uzikalowa mʼchipinda chamʼkati kuti ukabisale.”
26 And the kyng of Israel seide, Take ye Mychee, and dwelle he at Amon, prince of the citee, and at Joas, the sone of Amalech;
Pamenepo mfumu ya ku Israeli inalamula kuti, “Mugwireni Mikaya ndipo mubwerere naye kwa Amoni mkulu wa mzinda, ndi kwa Yowasi mwana wa mfumu
27 and seie ye to hem, The kyng seith these thingis, Sende ye this man in to prisoun, and susteyne ye hym with breed of tribulacioun, and with watir of angwisch, til Y turne ayen in pees.
ndipo mukanene kuti, ‘Chimene mfumu ikunena ndi ichi; Muyikeni mʼndende munthu uyu ndipo musamupatse chakudya china koma buledi ndi madzi pangʼono mpaka nditabwerera mwamtendere.’”
28 And Mychee seide, If thou schalt turne ayen in pees, the Lord spak not in me. And he seide, Here ye, alle puplis.
Mikaya ananena kuti, “Ngati mudzabwerera mwamtendere, Yehova sanayankhule kudzera mwa ine.” Ndipo iye anapitiriza kunena kuti, “Gwiritsitsani mawu angawa, anthu inu nonse!”
29 Therfor the kyng of Israel stiede, and Josaphat, kyng of Juda, in to Ramoth of Galaad.
Choncho mfumu ya ku Israeli ndi Yehosafati mfumu ya ku Yuda anapita ku Ramoti Giliyadi.
30 Therfor the kyng of Israel seide to Josephat, Take thou armeris, and entre thou in to batel, and be thou clothid in thi clothis, that is, noble signes of the kyng. Certis the kyng of Israel chaungide hise clothing, and entride in to batel.
Mfumu ya ku Israeli inawuza Yehosafati kuti, “Ine ndidzalowa mu nkhondoyi modzibisa, koma inu muvale zovala zanu zaufumu.” Choncho mfumu ya ku Israeli inadzibisa ndi kupita ku nkhondo.
31 Sotheli the kyng of Sirie hadde comaundid to two and thritti princes of charis, and seide, Ye schulen not fiyte ayens ony man lesse, ethir more, no but ayens the kyng of Israel oonli.
Tsono mfumu ya ku Aramu nʼkuti italamulira anthu ake 32 olamulira magaleta kuti, “Musamenyane ndi wina aliyense, wamngʼono kapena wamkulu, koma mfumu ya ku Israeli.”
32 Therfor whanne the princes of charis hadden seyn Josephat, thei suposiden that he was king of Israel, and bi feersnesse maad thei fouyten ayens hym.
Olamulira magaleta ataona Yehosafati, ankaganiza kuti, “Ndithu iyi ndiye mfumu ya ku Israeli.” Choncho anabwerera kukamenyana naye, koma Yehosafati atafuwula,
33 And Josephat criede; and the princis of charis vndurstoden, that it was not the king of Israel, and thei ceessiden fro hym.
olamulira akavalo anaona kuti sanali mfumu ya ku Israeli ndipo analeka kumuthamangitsa.
34 Sotheli sum man bente a bowe, and dresside an arowe in to vncerteyn, and bi hap he smoot the kyng of Israel bitwixe the lunge and the stomak. And the kyng seide to his charietere, Turne thin hond, and cast me out of the oost, for Y am woundid greuousli.
Koma munthu wina anaponya muvi wake mwachiponyeponye ndi kulasa mfumu ya ku Israeli polumikizira malaya ake odzitetezera. Mfumu inawuza woyendetsa galeta lake kuti, “Tembenuka ndipo undichotse pa nkhondo pano pakuti ndalasidwa.”
35 Therfor batel was ioyned in that dai, and the kyng of Israel stood in his chare ayens men of Sirie, and he was deed at euentid. Forsothe the blood of the wounde fletide doun in to the bothome of the chare.
Nkhondo inakula kwambiri tsiku limenelo, ndipo mfumu inakhala tsonga mʼgaleta lake moyangʼanana ndi Aaramu. Magazi ake ankayenderera pansi kuchokera mʼgaleta, ndipo pa nthawi ya madzulo inamwalira.
36 And a criere sownede in al the oost, before that the sunne yede doun, and seide, Ech man turne ayen in to his citee, and in to his lond.
Pamene dzuwa linkalowa, kunamveka mfuwu wa nkhondo kuti, “Munthu aliyense apite ku mzinda wa kwawo, aliyense apite ku dziko la kwawo!”
37 Forsothe the kyng was deed, and was borun in to Samarie; and thei birieden the kyng of Samarie.
Ndipo mfumu ija inafa, nabwera nayo ku Samariya, ndipo anayika mʼmanda kumeneko.
38 And thei waischiden his chare in the cisterne of Samarie, and doggis lickiden his blood, and thei wayschiden the reynes, bi the word of the Lord whiche he hadde spoke.
Anatsuka galeta lija pa dziwe la ku Samariya (pamene ankasamba akazi achiwerewere) ndipo agalu ananyambita magazi a mfumuyo, monga momwe Yehova ananenera.
39 Sotheli the residue of wordis of Achab, and alle thingis whiche he dide, and the hows of yuer which he bildide, and of alle citees whiche he bildide, whether these ben not writun in the book of wordis of daies of the kyngis of Israel?
Tsono ntchito zina za Ahabu, kuphatikiza zonse anazichita, nyumba yaufumu imene anamanga yokutidwa ndi minyanga ya njovu, mizinda yotetezedwa, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a ku Israeli?
40 Therfor Achab slepte with hise fadris, and Ocozie, his sone, regnede for hym.
Ahabu anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake. Ndipo Ahaziya mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
41 Forsothe Josephat, sone of Asa, bigan to regne on Juda in the fourthe yeer of Achab, kyng of Israel.
Yehosafati, mwana wa Asa anakhala mfumu ya ku Yuda chaka chachinayi cha Ahabu mfumu ya ku Israeli.
42 Josephat was of fyue and thretti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede fyue and twenti yeer in Jerusalem; the name of his modir was Azuba, douyter of Salai.
Yehosafati anali wa zaka 35 pamene analowa ufumu, ndipo analamulira ku Yerusalemu zaka 25. Amayi ake anali Azuba mwana wa Silihi.
43 And he yede in al the weye of Asa, his fadir, and bowide not fro it; and he dide that, that was riytful in the siyt of the Lord. Netheles he dide not awey hiy thingis, for yit the puple made sacrifice, and brente encense in hiy places.
Pa zinthu zonse, Yehosafati anayenda mʼnjira za Asa abambo ake ndipo sanachite zotsutsana ndi machitidwe a abambo ake. Iye anachita zolungama pamaso pa Yehova. Komabe, malo azipembedzo sanawawononge, ndipo anthu anapitiriza kupereka nsembe ndi kufukiza lubani kumeneko.
44 And Josephat hadde pees with the king of Israel.
Yehosafati anakhala mwamtendere ndi mfumu ya ku Israeli.
45 Sotheli the residue of wordis of Josephat, and the werkis and batels, whiche he dide, whethir these ben not writun in the book of wordis of daies of the kyngis of Juda?
Ntchito zake zina za Yehosafati, zinthu zimene anachita ndi zamphamvu zimene anaonetsa, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a ku Yuda?
46 But also he took awey fro the loond the relikis of men turned in to wymmens condiciouns, that leften in the daies of Aza, his fadir.
Iye anachotsa mʼdzikomo amuna onse ochita zachiwerewere mwa chipembedzo amene anatsalira pa nthawi ya ulamuliro wa Asa, abambo ake.
47 Nethir a kyng was ordeyned thanne in Edom.
Nthawi imeneyo kunalibe mfumu ku Edomu, amene ankalamulira anali munthu woyikidwa ndi mfumu ya ku Yuda.
48 Forsothe king Josephat made schippis in the see, that schulden seile in to Ophir for gold, and tho myyten not go, for thei weren brokun in Asiongaber.
Yehosafati anapanga sitima zapamadzi zopita ku Ofiri kukatenga golide, koma sitimazo sizinayende chifukwa zinawonongeka ku Ezioni Geberi.
49 Thanne Ocozie, sone of Achab, seide to Josephat, My seruauntis go with thine in schippis.
Nthawi imeneyo Ahaziya mwana wa Ahabu anawuza Yehosafati kuti, “Anthu anga ayende pa madzi pamodzi ndi anthu anu,” koma Yehosafati anakana.
50 And Josephat nolde. And Josephat slepte with hise fadris, and was biried with hem in the citee of Dauid, his fadir; and Joram, his sone, regnede for hym.
Ndipo Yehosafati anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake mu mzinda wa Davide. Ndipo Yoramu mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
51 Forsothe Ocozie, sone of Achab, bigan to regne on Israel, in Samarie, in the seuenetenthe yeer of Josephat, kyng of Juda; and Ocozie regnede on Israel twei yeer.
Ahaziya mwana wa Ahabu anakhala mfumu ya ku Israeli ku Samariya mʼchaka cha 17 cha Yehosafati mfumu ya ku Yuda, ndipo analamulira Israeli zaka ziwiri.
52 And he dide yuel in the siyt of the Lord, and yede in the wey of his fadir, and of his modir, and in the weie of Jeroboam, sone of Nabath, that made Israel to do synne.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova, chifukwa anayenda mʼnjira za abambo ndi amayi ake komanso mʼnjira za Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, amene anachimwitsa Israeli.
53 And he seruyde Baal, and worschipide hym, and wraththide the Lord God of Israel, bi alle thingis whiche his fadir hadde do.
Potumikira ndi kupembedza Baala, iye anakwiyitsa Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, monga momwe anachitira abambo ake.
