Luo Chronicle 18

1 Ke Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah el kasrupi ac pwengpeng, el akoo sie marut inmasrlon sie mwet in sou lal ac sie in sou lal Tokosra Ahab lun Israel.

Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance; and he joined affinity with Ahab.

2 In kutu yac tok, Jehoshaphat el som nu in siti Samaria in mutwata yorol Ahab. Na Ahab el sap in anwuki sheep ac cow puspis in orala sie kufwa in akfulatyal Jehoshaphat ac mwet ma welul. Ac el eyeinse nu sel Jehoshaphat elan welul mweuni acn Ramoth in Gilead.

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 El siyuk sel, “Kom ac ku in wiyu mweuni acn Ramoth?” Jehoshaphat el topuk, “Pacl na kom akola, nga ac mwet luk uh akola pac. Kut ac wi kom.”

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 Na el tafwelana in fahk, “Tusruktu, kut in suk nunak lun LEUM GOD meet.”

Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "Please inquire first for the word of the LORD."

5 Ouinge Ahab el pangonma mwet palu lal, pisalos akuran sun mwet angfoko, na el siyuk selos, “Ku fal nga in som mweuni acn Ramoth, ku tia?” Elos topuk, “Fahla, mweun. God El ac fah sot kutangla nu sum.”

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 Tusruktu Jehoshaphat el siyuk, “Ya wangin pac sie mwet palu kut ku in siyuk lungse lun LEUM GOD se?”

But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn't there here a prophet of the LORD besides, that we may inquire of him?"

7 Ahab el topuk, “Oasr pac mwet se, ac inel pa Micaiah, wen natul Imlah. Tusruktu nga srungal mweyen el tiana wi palu wo nu sik. Pacl nukewa el fahk ma na koluk.” Na Jehoshaphat el fahk, “Tia wo kom in fahk ouingan!”

The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD; 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 Ouinge Ahab el suli sie mwet kol ke inkul lun tokosra, ac sap elan sulaklak som solalma Micaiah.

Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, "Get Micaiah the son of Imla quickly."

9 Tokosra luo inge nuknukyang ke nuknuk in tokosra, ac muta fin tron laltal ke acn in sisla kulun wheat likin na mutunpot lun Samaria, ac mwet palu nukewa oru palu lalos ye mutaltal.

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 Sie selos pa Zedekiah, wen natul Chenaanah. El orala kutu koac osra, ac el fahk nu sel Ahab, “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Kom fah us koac inge ac sang mweuni mwet Syria, ac kom ac arulana kutangulosla.’”

Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah made him horns of iron, and said, "Thus says the LORD, 'With these you shall push the Arameans, until they are consumed.'"

11 Mwet palu nukewa saya fahk oana, “Fahsr lain acn Ramoth, ac kom ac fah kutangla. LEUM GOD El ac asot kutangla nu sum.”

All the prophets prophesied so, saying, "Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper; for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king."

12 In pacl sac pacna, mwet kol se su som in eisal Micaiah el fahk nu sel, “Mwet palu nukewa sayom palye ma ac wo nu sin tokosra. Na pa wo kom in fahk oana.”

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 A Micaiah el topuk, “Ke Inen LEUM GOD moul, ma God luk El fahk, nga fah fahk!”

Micaiah said, "As the LORD lives, whatever my God says to me, that I will speak."

14 Ke el utyak nu ye mutal Tokosra Ahab, na tokosra el siyuk sel, “Micaiah, ku fal nga ac Tokosra Jehoshaphat in som mweuni acn Ramoth, ku tia?” Micaiah el topuk, “Fahla mweun. Kowos ac kutangla! LEUM GOD El ac sot kutangla nu suwos.”

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 Tusruktu Ahab el fahk nu sel, “Ke kom kaskas ke Inen LEUM GOD, fahk na ma pwaye! Pacl ekasr nga enenu nga in fahk ma se inge nu sum?”

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 the LORD?"

16 Na Micaiah el topuk fahk, “Nga liye mwet mweun lun Israel oalik fineol uh oana sheep su wangin mwet shepherd lalos. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Wangin mwet kol lun mwet inge. Lela elos in folokla nu yen selos in misla.’”

He said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. The LORD said, 'These have no master. Let them return every man to his house in peace.'"

17 Ahab el fahk nu sel Jehoshaphat, “Nga fahk tari nu sum lah el tia wi palye ma ac wo nu sik, a pacl nukewa ma koluk mukena!”

The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?"

18 Na Micaiah el tafwela ac fahk, “Inge lohng ma LEUM GOD El fahk! Nga liye LEUM GOD El muta fin tron lal inkusrao, ac lipufan nukewa lal elos tu siskal.

Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.

19 LEUM GOD El siyuk, ‘Su ac fah kiapwella Ahab elan som in tuh anwuki el in acn Ramoth?’ Kutu sin lipufan fahk sie kas, ac kutu fahk sie pac,

The LORD 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 nwe ke na sie ngun fahsryak nu meet, suwosyang nu sin LEUM GOD ac fahk, ‘Nga ac kiapwella.’ LEUM GOD El siyuk, ‘Kom ac oru fuka?’

A spirit came out, stood before the LORD, and said, 'I will entice him.' "The LORD said to him, 'How?'

21 Na ngun sac fahk, ‘Nga ac som oru mwet palu nukewa lal Ahab in kikiap.’ Na LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Fahla kiapwella. El ac lukukla wela ma kom fahk.’”

"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 Na Micaiah el aksafyela kas lal ac fahk, “Ma na nga fahk uh pa sikyak inge. LEUM GOD El oru tuh mwet palu lom in kiapwekom. A El sifacna akoekomla in sun ongoiya!”

"Now therefore, look, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets; and the LORD has pronounced disaster concerning you."

23 Na mwet palu Zedekiah el kalukyang nu yorol Micaiah, ac puokya likintupal ac siyuk, “Ku ngac ngun lun LEUM GOD som likiyu ac kaskas nu sum?”

Then Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, "Which way did the Spirit of the LORD go from me to speak to you?"

24 Micaiah el topuk, “Kom ac fah konauk ke pacl se kom ac som in wikla ke sie infukil ma oan tok ah.”

Micaiah said, "Look, you shall see on that day, when you shall go into an inner room to hide yourself."

25 Na Tokosra Ahab el sap nu sin sie sin leum lal, “Kaprilya Micaiah ac usalla nu sel Amon, governor lun siti uh, ac nu sel Fisrak Joash.

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 Fahkang mu eltal in siselang nu in presin, ac sang na bread ac kof kital, nwe ke pacl nga moul foloko.”

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 Micaiah el fahk, “Kom fin moul foloko, na kalem lah tia LEUM GOD pa supweyu in fahk ma inge!” El tafwelana in fahk, “Kowos nukewa porongo ma nga fahk uh!”

Micaiah said, "If you return at all in peace, the LORD has not spoken by me." He said, "Listen, you peoples, all of you."

28 Na Tokosra Ahab lun Israel ac Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah eltal som in mweuni siti Ramoth in acn Gilead.

So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.

29 Ahab el fahk nu sel Jehoshaphat, “Ke kut ac som nu ke mweun uh, nga ac fah tia nukum nuknuk in tokosra luk, a kom nukum na nuknuk in tokosra lom.” Ouinge tokosra lun Israel el ekulla lumahl ke el som nu ke mweun.

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 Tokosra lun Syria el sap nu sin captain lun chariot lal uh in tia mweuni kutena mwet sayen tokosra lun Israel.

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 Ouinge ke elos liyal Tokosra Jehoshaphat elos nunku mu el pa tokosra lun Israel, ac elos forang in mweunel. Na Jehoshaphat el liksreni wola, ac LEUM GOD El molella, ac folokunla mwet ukwal ah.

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 the LORD helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.

32 Captain lun chariot elos liye tuh tia tokosra Israel pa el, ouinge elos tila ukwal.

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 Tusruktu sie sin mwet mweun lun Syria el pusrkala pisr natul ac tiana etu lah ac sonol Tokosra Ahab, tuh pa pisrkilya ke kupasr lun mwe loang kacl. Ahab el wola nu sin mwet se us chariot natul ah, “Nga kineta! Forla, kaing!”

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 Ke mweun uh srakna upa, Tokosra Ahab el fungla na muta in chariot natul, ac ngetla nu yurin mwet Syria. Na ke faht ah tili, el misa.

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.
