< II Oihanaalii 18 >

1 A IA ia Iehosapata ka waiwai, a me ka hanohano he nui loa, a kuikahi pu ae la ia me Ahaba.
Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance; and he joined affinity with Ahab.
2 A pau ae la kekahi mau makahiki, iho iho la oia ilalo io Ahaba la ma Samaria: a pepebi iho la o Ahaba nana, a na na kanaka me ia i na hipa, a me na bipi he nui loa, a noi ikaika mai ia ia e pii pu me ia i Ramota-Gileada.
After certain years he went down to Ahab to Samaria. Ahab killed sheep and cattle for him in abundance, and for the people who were with him, and moved him to go up with him to Ramoth Gilead.
3 Olelo mai la o Ahaba ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata i ke alii o ka Iuda, Aole anei oe e hele pu me au i Ramota-Gileada? I aku la kela, E like me oe pela no au, e like me kou poe kanaka, pela ko'u poe kanaka, o kakou pu ma ke kaua.
Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, "Will you go with me to Ramoth Gilead?" He answered him, "I am as you are, and my people as your people. We will be with you in the war."
4 I aku la o Iehosapata i ke alii o ka Iseraela, E ninau oe i ka olelo a Iehova i keia la.
Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "Please inquire first for the word of Jehovah."
5 Alaila houluulu ae la ke alii o ka Iseraela i na kaula eha haneri kanaka, a olelo aku la ia lakou, E hele anei makou i Ramota-Gileada i ke kaua? a e oki paha? I mai la lakou ia ia, O pii, a na ke Akua ia e haawi mai iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" They said, "Go up; for God will deliver it into the hand of the king."
6 Olelo aku la o Iehosapata, Aole anei he kaula e ae o Iehova maanei i ninau kakou ia ia?
But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn't there here a prophet of Jehovah besides, that we may inquire of him?"
7 I mai la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata, Eia no kekahi kanaka i koe ma ona la e imi ai ia Iehova, o Mikaia kona inoa, ke keiki a Imela, aka, he inaina ko'u ia ia; no ka mea, aole i wanana mai ia no'u i ka pomaikai, aka, i ka poino wale no i kona mau la a pau. I aku la o Iehosapata, Mai olelo ke alii pela.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Jehovah; but I hate him, for he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil. He is Micaiah the son of Imla." Jehoshaphat said, "Do not let the king say so."
8 Kahea aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela i kekahi o na luna haku, E kii koke oe ia Mikaia ke keiki a Imela.
Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, "Get Micaiah the son of Imla quickly."
9 A noho iho la ke alii o ka Iseraela a me Iehosapata ke alii o ka Iuda, kela mea keia mea maluna o kona nohoalii, ua aahu laua i ko laua aahu alii, a noho laua ma kahi akea ma ka puka kahi e komo ai iloko o Samaria; a wanana iho la na kaula a pau imua o laua.
Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah sat each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, and they were sitting in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
10 A o Zedakia ke keiki a Kenaana, hana iho la ia nona i mau kiwi hao, a olelo mai la, Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova, Me keia mail mea oe e pahu aku ai i ko Suria, a pau lakou.
Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah made him horns of iron, and said, "Thus says Jehovah, 'With these you shall push the Arameans, until they are consumed.'"
11 A wanana ae la ka poe kaula a pau loa pela, i mai la, E pii i Ramota-Gileada, a lanakila; ua haawi mai o Iehova ia wahi iloko o ka lima o ke alii.
All the prophets prophesied so, saying, "Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper; for Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king."
12 A o ka elele, ka mea i hele ae e kii aku ia Mikaia, olelo aku la oia ia ia, i aku la, Aia hoi, o na olelo a pau a na kaula e wanana ai, hookahi wale no ia, o ka pomaikai no ke alii; i hookahi hoi kau olelo me ka lakou, e olelo oe ma ka pomaikai.
The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, "Look, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth. Let your word therefore, please be like one of theirs, and speak good."
13 I mai la o Mikaia, Ma ke ola o Iehova, o na mea a ko'u Akua i olelo mai ai, oia ka'u o olelo aku ai.
Micaiah said, "As Jehovah lives, whatever my God says to me, that I will speak."
14 A hiki ia i ke alii, olelo ke alii ia ia, E Mikaia, e pii anei makou i Ramota-Gileada, i ke kaua? a e oki paha? I mai kela, E pii, e pomaikai, a e haawiia ua poe la iloko o ko olua lima.
When he had come to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" He said, "Go up, and prosper. They shall be delivered into your hand."
15 Olelo aku la ke alii ia ia, Ehia la ka'u mau kauoha hoohiki aku ia oe, i ole oe e olelo mai ia'u i ka mea e, i ka mea oiaio wale no, ma ka inoa o Iehova?
The king said to him, "How many times shall I adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Jehovah?"
16 I mai la kela, Ua ike au i ka Iseraela a pau e auwana ana ma na mauna e like me na hipa kahu ole; olelo mai o Iehova, aole o lakou haku, e hoi kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho me ka maluhia.
He said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. Jehovah said, 'These have no master. Let them return every man to his house in peace.'"
17 I aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata, Aole anei au i olelo aku ia oe, aole wanana mai kela no'u i ka pomaikai, aka, i ka poino wale no?
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?"
18 I mai la ke kaula, No ia mea, e hoolohe mai oe i ka olelo a Iehova; ua ike au ia Iehova e noho ana maluna o kona nohoalii, a o ka poe koa a pau o na lani e ku ana ma kona lima akau, a me kona lima hema.
Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of Jehovah: I saw Jehovah sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.
19 Olelo ae la o Iehova, Owai la ka mea e hoowalewale ia Ahaba ke alii o ka Iseraela i pii aku oia a make ma Ramota-Gileada? Olelo ae la kekahi peneia, a o kekahi hoi peneia.
Jehovah said, 'Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?' One spoke saying in this way, and another saying in that way.
20 Alaila, hiki mai kekahi uhane, a ku ae la imua o Iehova, a olelo aku la ia, Owau ke hoowalewale ia ia. I ae la o Iehova, Pehea?
A spirit came out, stood before Jehovah, and said, 'I will entice him.' "Jehovah said to him, 'How?'
21 I aku la kela, E hele au a e lilo au i uhane wahahee iloko o na waha o kona poe kaula a pau. I ae la o Iehova, E hoowalewale oe, a e lanakila hoi; e hele oe a hana no pela.
"He said, 'I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' "He said, 'You will entice him, and will prevail also. Go forth, and do so.'
22 Ano hoi, ua haawi mai o Iehova i ka uhane wahahee iloko o ka waha o keia poe kaula au, a o Iehova hoi ua olelo mai oia nau i ka poino.
"Now therefore, look, Jehovah has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets; and Jehovah has pronounced disaster concerning you."
23 Alaila, hookokoke o Zedakia ke keiki a Kenaana, a kui mai ia Mikaia ma ka papalina, me ka i ana mai, Ma ka aoao hea i hele ai ka uhane o Iehova mai o'u aku nei e olelo aku ia oe.
Then Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, "Which way did the Spirit of Jehovah go from me to speak to you?"
24 I aku la o Mikaia, E ike auanei oe, i ka la e komo ai oe iloko o ke keena iloko, e pee iho.
Micaiah said, "Look, you shall see on that day, when you shall go into an inner room to hide yourself."
25 Olelo aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela, E lawe oukou ia Mikaia, a e hoihoi ia ia io Amona la i ka luna iloko o ke kulanakauhale, a ia Ioasa ke keiki a ke alii.
The king of Israel said, "Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;
26 E olelo aku ia laua penei, Ua i mai la ke alii, e hookomo i keia kanaka iloko o ka hale paahao, a e hanai ia ia i ka berena o ka pilikia a me ka wai o ka pilikia, a hoi mai au me ka maluhia.
and say, 'Thus says the king, "Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace."'"
27 I aku la o Mikaia, Ina e hoi io mai oe me ka maluhia, aole o Iehova i olelo mai ma o'u nei. Olelo aku la ia, E hoolohe oukou, e na kanaka a pau.
Micaiah said, "If you return at all in peace, Jehovah has not spoken by me." He said, "Listen, you peoples, all of you."
28 Alaila pii aku la ke alii o ka Iseraela, a me Iehosapata, ke alii o ka Iuda, i Ramota-Gileada.
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
29 Olelo mai la ke alii o ka Iseraela ia Iehosapata, E huna au ia'u iho, a e komo iloko o ke kaua, aka, e komo oe i kou kapa alii. A huna iho ke alii o ka Iseraela ia ia iho, a komo iloko o ke kaua.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but you put on your robes." So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went into the battle.
30 Ua kauoha ke alii o Suria i na luna o kona mau hale kaa, i aku la, Mai kaua aku i kekahi mea uuku, aole i kekahi mea nui, i ke alii o ka Iseraela wale no.
Now the king of Aram had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying, "Fight neither with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel."
31 A ike mai na luna o na hale kaa ia Iehosapata, i iho la lakou, O ke alii ia o ka Iseraela: a puana mai la lakou ia ia a puni e kaua mai ia ia; aka, kahea aku la o Iehosapata, a kokua mai o Iehova ia ia, a hoohuli ae la ke Akua ia lakou mai ona'ku.
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, "It is the king of Israel." Therefore they turned around to fight against him. But Jehoshaphat cried out, and Jehovah helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.
32 Ike mai la na luna o na hale kaa, aole ke alii ia o ka Iseraela, huli ae la lakou mai ona aku la.
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
33 A pana wale mai la kekahi kanaka me kana kakaka, a ku i ke alii o ka Iseraela ma kahi ami o kona paleumauma; a olelo oia i ka mea nana e malama i kona hale kaa, E huli ae kou lima, a e lawe ia'u mai ke kaua aku, no ka mea, ua eha au.
A certain man drew his bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of the chariot, "Turn your hand, and carry me out of the army; for I am severely wounded."
34 Mahuahua ae la ke kaua ia la; aka, noho iho la ke alii o ka Iseraela iloko o kona hale kaa, e ku e i ko Suria, a ahiahi; a i ka napoo ana o ka la, make iho la ia.
The battle increased that day. However the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot against the Arameans until the evening; and about the time of the going down of the sun, he died.
