1 Kings 22
1 And they sit still three years, there is no war between Aram and Israel,
Transierunt igitur tres anni absque bello inter Syriam et Israel.
2 and it cometh to pass in the third year, that Jehoshaphat king of Judah cometh down unto the king of Israel,
In anno autem tertio, descendit Iosaphat rex Iuda ad regem Israel.
3 and the king of Israel saith unto his servants, 'Have ye not known that ours [is] Ramoth-Gilead? and we are keeping silent from taking it out of the hand of the king of Aram!'
(Dixitque rex Israel ad servos suos: Ignoratis quod nostra sit Ramoth Galaad, et negligimus tollere eam de manu regis Syriae?)
4 And he saith unto Jehoshaphat, 'Dost thou go with me to battle [to] Ramoth-Gilead?' and Jehoshaphat saith unto the king of Israel, 'As I am, so thou; as my people, so thy people; as my horses, so thy horses.'
Et ait ad Iosaphat: Veniesne mecum ad praeliandum in Ramoth Galaad?
5 And Jehoshaphat saith unto the king of Israel, 'Seek, I pray thee, to-day, the word of Jehovah;'
Dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israel: Sicut ego sum, ita et tu: populus meus, et populus tuus unum sunt: et equites mei, equites tui. Dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israel: Quaere, oro te, hodie sermonem Domini.
6 and the king of Israel gathereth the prophets, about four hundred men, and saith unto them, 'Do I go against Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I forbear?' and they say, 'Go up, and the Lord doth give [it] into the hand of the king.'
Congregavit ergo rex Israel prophetas, quadringentos circiter viros, et ait ad eos: Ire debeo in Ramoth Galaad ad bellandum, an quiescere? Qui responderunt: Ascende, et dabit eam Dominus in manu regis.
7 And Jehoshaphat saith, 'Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah besides, and we seek by him?'
Dixit autem Iosaphat: Non est hic propheta Domini quispiam, ut interrogemus per eum?
8 And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat, 'Yet — one man to seek Jehovah by him, and I have hated him, for he doth not prophesy concerning me good, but evil — Micaiah son of Imlah;' and Jehoshaphat saith, 'Let not the king say so.'
Et ait rex Israel ad Iosaphat: Remansit vir unus, per quem possumus interrogare Dominum: sed ego odi eum, quia non prophetat mihi bonum, sed malum, Michaeas filius Iemla. Cui Iosaphat ait: Ne loquaris ita rex.
9 And the king of Israel calleth unto a certain eunuch, and saith, 'Hasten Micaiah son of Imlah.'
Vocavit ergo rex Israel eunuchum quendam, et dixit ei: Festina adducere Michaeam filium Iemla.
10 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah are sitting, each on his throne, clothed with garments, in a threshing-floor, at the opening of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets are prophesying before them.
Rex autem Israel, et Iosaphat rex Iuda sedebant unusquisque in solio suo vestiti cultu regio, in area iuxta ostium portae Samariae, et universi prophetae prophetabant in conspectu eorum.
11 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah maketh for himself horns of iron, and saith, 'Thus said Jehovah, By these thou dost push the Aramaeans till they are consumed;'
Fecit quoque sibi Sedecias filius Chanaana cornua ferrea, et ait: Haec dicit Dominus: His ventilabis Syriam, donec deleas eam.
12 and all the prophets are prophesying so, saying, 'Go up to Ramoth-Gilead, and prosper, and Jehovah hath given [it] into the hand of the king.'
Omnesque prophetae similiter prophetabant, dicentes: Ascende in Ramoth Galaad, et vade prospere, et tradet Dominus in manus regis.
13 And the messenger who hath gone to call Micaiah hath spoken unto him, saying, 'Lo, I pray thee, the words of the prophets, with one mouth, [are] good towards the king; let it be, I pray thee, thy word as the word of one of them — and thou hast spoken good.'
Nuncius vero, qui ierat ut vocaret Michaeam, locutus est ad eum, dicens: Ecce sermones prophetarum ore uno regi bona praedicunt: sit ergo sermo tuus similis eorum, et loquere bona.
14 And Micaiah saith, 'Jehovah liveth; surely that which Jehovah saith unto me — it I speak.'
Cui Michaeas ait: Vivit Dominus, quia quodcumque dixerit mihi Dominus, hoc loquar.
15 And he cometh in unto the king, and the king saith unto him, 'Micaiah, do we go unto Ramoth-Gilead, to battle, or do we forbear?' and he saith unto him, 'Go up, and prosper, and Jehovah hath given [it] into the hand of the king.'
Venit itaque ad regem, et ait illi rex: Michaea, ire debemus in Ramoth Galaad ad praeliandum, an cessare? Cui ille respondit: Ascende, et vade prospere, et tradet eum Dominus in manus regis.
16 And the king saith unto him, 'How many times am I adjuring thee that thou speak nothing unto me but truth in the name of Jehovah?'
Dixit autem rex ad eum: Iterum atque iterum adiuro te, ut non loquaris mihi nisi quod verum est, in nomine Domini.
17 And he saith, 'I have seen all Israel scattered on the hills as sheep that have no shepherd, and Jehovah saith, These have no master; they turn back each to his house in peace.'
Et ille ait: Vidi cunctum Israel dispersum in montibus, quasi oves non habentes pastorem. et ait Dominus: Non habent isti dominum: revertatur unusquisque in domum suam in pace.
18 And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat, 'Have I not said unto thee, He doth not prophesy of me good, but evil?'
(Dixit ergo rex Israel ad Iosaphat: Numquid non dixi tibi, quia non prophetat mihi bonum, sed semper malum?)
19 And he saith, 'Therefore, hear a word of Jehovah; I have seen Jehovah sitting on His throne, and all the host of the heavens standing by Him, on His right and on His left;
Ille vero addens, ait: Propterea audi sermonem Domini: Vidi Dominum sedentem super solium suum, et omnem exercitum caeli assistentem ei a dextris et a sinistris:
20 and Jehovah saith, Who doth entice Ahab, and he doth go up and fall in Ramoth-Gilead? and this one saith thus, and that one is saying thus.
et ait Dominus: Quis decipiet Achab regem Israel, ut ascendat, et cadat in Ramoth Galaad? Et dixit unus verba huiuscemodi, et alius aliter.
21 'And the spirit goeth out, and standeth before Jehovah, and saith, I — I do entice him; and Jehovah saith unto him, By what?
Egressus est autem spiritus, et stetit coram Domino, et ait: Ego decipiam illum. Cui locutus est Dominus: In quo?
22 and he saith, I go out, and have been a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets; and He saith, Thou dost entice, and also thou art able; go out and do so.
Et ille ait: Egrediar, et ero spiritus mendax in ore omnium prophetarum eius. Et dixit Dominus: Decipies, et praevalebis: egredere, et fac ita.
23 And now, lo, Jehovah hath put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and Jehovah hath spoken concerning thee — evil.'
Nunc igitur ecce dedit Dominus spiritum mendacii in ore omnium prophetarum tuorum, qui hic sunt, et Dominus locutus est contra te malum.
24 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah draweth nigh, and smiteth Micaiah on the cheek, and saith, 'Where [is] this — he hath passed over — the Spirit of Jehovah — from me to speak with thee?'
Accessit autem Sedecias filius Chanaana, et percussit Michaeam in maxillam, et dixit: Me ne ergo dimisit Spiritus Domini, et locutus est tibi?
25 And Micaiah saith, 'Lo, thou art seeing on that day, when thou goest in to the innermost chamber to be hidden.'
Et ait Michaeas: Visurus es in die illa, quando ingredieris cubiculum, intra cubiculum ut abscondaris.
26 And the king of Israel saith, 'Take Micaiah, and turn him back unto Amon head of the city, and unto Joash son of the king,
Et ait rex Israel: Tollite Michaeam, et maneat apud Amon principem civitatis, et apud Ioas filium Amelech,
27 and thou hast said, Thus said the king, Place ye this one in the house of restraint, and cause him to eat bread of oppression, and water of oppression, till my coming in peace.'
et dicite eis: Haec dicit rex: Mittite virum istum in carcerem, et sustentate eum pane tribulationis, et aqua angustiae, donec revertar in pace.
28 And Micaiah saith, 'If thou at all return in peace — Jehovah hath not spoken by me;' and he saith, 'Hear, O peoples, all of them.'
Dixitque Michaeas: Si reversus fueris in pace, non est locutus in me Dominus. Et ait: Audite populi omnes.
29 And the king of Israel goeth up, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, to Ramoth-Gilead.
Ascendit itaque rex Israel, et Iosaphat rex Iuda in Ramoth Galaad.
30 And the king of Israel saith unto Jehoshaphat to disguise himself, and to go into battle, 'And thou, put on thy garments.' And the king of Israel disguiseth himself, and goeth into battle.
Dixit itaque rex Israel ad Iosaphat: Sume arma, et ingredere praelium, et induere vestibus tuis. porro rex Israel mutavit habitum suum, et ingressus est bellum.
31 And the king of Aram commanded the heads of the charioteers whom he hath — thirty and two — saying, 'Ye do not fight with small or with great, but with the king of Israel by himself.'
Rex autem Syriae praeceperat principibus curruum triginta duobus, dicens: Non pugnabitis contra minorem, et maiorem quempiam, nisi contra regem Israel, solum.
32 And it cometh to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing Jehoshaphat, that they said, 'He [is] only the king of Israel;' and they turn aside to him to fight, and Jehoshaphat crieth out,
Cum ergo vidissent principes curruum Iosaphat, suspicati sunt quod ipse esset rex Israel, et impetu facto pugnabant contra eum: et exclamavit Iosaphat.
33 and it cometh to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing that he [is] not the king of Israel, that they turn back from after him.
Intellexeruntque principes curruum quod non esset rex Israel, et cessaverunt ab eo.
34 And a man hath drawn with a bow, in his simplicity, and smiteth the king of Israel between the joinings and the coat of mail, and he saith to his charioteer, 'Turn thy hand, and take me out from the camp, for I have become sick.'
Vir autem quidam tetendit arcum, in incertum sagittam dirigens, et casu percussit regem Israel inter pulmonem et stomachum. At ille dixit aurigae suo: Verte manum tuam, et eiice me de exercitu, quia graviter vulneratus sum.
35 And the battle increaseth on that day, and the king hath been caused to stand in the chariot, over-against Aram, and he dieth in the evening, and the blood of the wound runneth out unto the midst of the chariot,
Commissum est ergo praelium in die illa, et rex Israel stabat in curru suo contra Syros, et mortuus est vespere: fluebat autem sanguis plagae in sinum currus,
36 and he causeth the cry to pass over through the camp, at the going in of the sun, saying, 'Each unto his city, and each unto his land.'
et praeco insonuit in universo exercitu antequam sol occumberet, dicens: Unusquisque revertatur in civitatem, et in terram suam.
37 And the king dieth, and cometh into Samaria, and they bury the king in Samaria;
Mortuus est autem rex, et perlatus est in Samariam: sepelieruntque regem in Samaria,
38 and [one] rinseth the chariot by the pool of Samaria, and the dogs lick his blood — when the armour they had washed — according to the word of Jehovah that He spake.
et laverunt currum eius in piscina Samariae, et linxerunt canes sanguinem eius, et habenas laverunt, iuxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat.
39 And the rest of the matters of Ahab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he built, and all the cities that he built, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Reliqua autem sermonum Achab, et universa quae fecit, et domus eburnea, quam aedificavit, cunctarumque urbium quas extruxit, nonne haec scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Israel?
40 And Ahab lieth with his fathers, and Ahaziah his son reigneth in his stead.
Dormivit ergo Achab cum patribus suis, et regnavit Ochozias filius eius pro eo.
41 And Jehoshaphat son of Asa hath reigned over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel,
Iosaphat vero filius Asa regnare coeperat super Iudam anno quarto Achab regis Israel.
42 Jehoshaphat [is] a son of thirty and five years in his reigning, and twenty and five years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
Triginta quinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset, et vigintiquinque annis regnavit in Ierusalem: nomen matris eius Azuba filia Salai.
43 And he walketh in all the way of Asa his father, he hath not turned aside from it, to do that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah; only the high places have not turned aside, yet are the people sacrificing and making perfume in high places.
Et ambulavit in omni via Asa patris sui, et non declinavit ex ea: fecitque quod rectum erat in conspectu Domini. Verumtamen excelsa non abstulit: adhuc enim populus sacrificabat, et adolebat incensum in excelsis.
44 And Jehoshaphat maketh peace with the king of Israel;
Pacemque habuit Iosaphat cum rege Israel.
45 and the rest of the matters of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he got, and with which he fought, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Reliqua autem verborum Iosaphat, et opera eius, quae gessit, et praelia, nonne haec scripta sunt in Libro verborum dierum regum Iuda?
46 And the remnant of the whoremongers who were left in the days of Asa his father he took away out of the land;
Sed et reliquias effeminatorum, qui remanserant in diebus Asa patris eius, abstulit de terra.
47 and there is no king in Edom; he set up a king.
Nec erat tunc rex constitutus in Edom.
48 Jehoshaphat made ships at Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, and they went not, for the ships were broken in Ezion-Geber.
Rex vero Iosaphat fecerat classes in mari, quae navigarent in Ophir propter aurum: et ire non potuerunt, quia confractae sunt in Asiongaber.
49 Then said Ahaziah son of Ahab unto Jehoshaphat, 'Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships;' and Jehoshaphat was not willing.
Tunc ait Ochozias filius Achab ad Iosaphat: Vadant servi mei cum servis tuis in navibus. Et noluit Iosaphat.
50 And Jehoshaphat lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Jehoram his son reigneth in his stead.
Dormivitque Iosaphat cum patribus suis, et sepultus est cum eis in Civitate David patris sui: regnavitque Ioram filius eius pro eo.
51 Ahaziah son of Ahab hath reigned over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigneth over Israel two years,
Ochozias autem filius Achab regnare coeperat super Israel in Samaria, anno septimodecimo Iosaphat regis Iuda, regnavitque super Israel duobus annis.
52 and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and walketh in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat who caused Israel to sin,
Et fecit malum in conspectu Domini, et ambulavit in via patris sui et matris suae, et in via Ieroboam filii Nabat, qui peccare fecit Israel.
53 and serveth the Baal, and boweth himself to it, and provoketh Jehovah, God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
Servivit quoque Baal, et adoravit eum, et irritavit Dominum Deum Israel, iuxta omnia quae fecerat pater eius.
