I Regum 22
1 transierunt igitur tres anni absque bello inter Syriam et Israhel
They continued three years without war between Aram and Israel.
2 in anno autem tertio descendit Iosaphat rex Iuda ad regem Israhel
It happened in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
3 dixitque rex Israhel ad servos suos ignoratis quod nostra sit Ramoth Galaad et neglegimus tollere eam de manu regis Syriae
The king of Israel said to his servants, "You know that Ramoth Gilead is ours, and we are still, and do not take it out of the hand of the king of Aram?"
4 et ait ad Iosaphat veniesne mecum ad proeliandum in Ramoth Galaad
He said to Jehoshaphat, "Will you go with me to battle to Ramoth Gilead?" Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses."
5 dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israhel sicut ego sum ita et tu populus meus et populus tuus unum sunt et equites mei et equites tui dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israhel quaere oro te hodie sermonem Domini
Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "Please inquire first for the word of Jehovah."
6 congregavit ergo rex Israhel prophetas quadringentos circiter viros et ait ad eos ire debeo in Ramoth Galaad ad bellandum an quiescere qui responderunt ascende et dabit Dominus in manu regis
Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall I go against Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" They said, "Go up; for Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king."
7 dixit autem Iosaphat non est hic propheta Domini quispiam ut interrogemus per eum
But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn't there here a prophet of Jehovah, that we may inquire of him?"
8 et ait rex Israhel ad Iosaphat remansit vir unus per quem possimus interrogare Dominum sed ego odi eum quia non prophetat mihi bonum sed malum Micheas filius Hiemla cui Iosaphat ait ne loquaris ita rex
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Jehovah, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him; for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil." Jehoshaphat said, "Do not let the king say so."
9 vocavit ergo rex Israhel eunuchum quendam et dixit ei festina adducere Micheam filium Hiemla
Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, "Quickly get Micaiah the son of Imlah."
10 rex autem Israhel et Iosaphat rex Iuda sedebat unusquisque in solio suo vestiti cultu regio in area iuxta ostium portae Samariae et universi prophetae prophetabant in conspectu eorum
Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
11 fecit quoque sibi Sedecias filius Chanaan cornua ferrea et ait haec dicit Dominus his ventilabis Syriam donec deleas eam
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.'"
12 omnesque prophetae similiter prophetabant dicentes ascende in Ramoth Galaad et vade prospere et tradet Dominus in manu regis
All the prophets prophesied so, saying, "Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper; for Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king."
13 nuntius vero qui ierat ut vocaret Micheam locutus est ad eum dicens ecce sermones prophetarum ore uno bona regi praedicant sit ergo et sermo tuus similis eorum et loquere bona
The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, "See now, the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth. Please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak good."
14 cui Micheas ait vivit Dominus quia quodcumque dixerit mihi Dominus hoc loquar
Micaiah said, "As Jehovah lives, what Jehovah says to me, that I will speak."
15 venit itaque ad regem et ait illi rex Michea ire debemus in Ramoth Galaad ad proeliandum an cessare cui ille respondit ascende et vade prospere et tradet Dominus in manu regis
When he had come to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall we forbear?" He answered him, "Go up and prosper; and Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king."
16 dixit autem rex ad eum iterum atque iterum adiuro te ut non loquaris mihi nisi quod verum est in nomine Domini
The king said to him, "How many times do I have to adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Jehovah?"
17 et ille ait vidi cunctum Israhel dispersum in montibus quasi oves non habentes pastorem et ait Dominus non habent dominum isti revertatur unusquisque in domum suam in pace
He said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. Jehovah said, 'These have no master. Let them each return to his house in peace.'"
18 dixit ergo rex Israhel ad Iosaphat numquid non dixi tibi quia non prophetat mihi bonum sed semper malum
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?"
19 ille vero addens ait propterea audi sermonem Domini vidi Dominum sedentem super solium suum et omnem exercitum caeli adsistentem ei a dextris et a sinistris
Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of Jehovah. I saw Jehovah sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left.
20 et ait Dominus quis decipiet Ahab regem Israhel ut ascendat et cadat in Ramoth Galaad et dixit unus verba huiuscemodi et alius aliter
Jehovah said, 'Who shall entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?' One said one thing; and another said another.
21 egressus est autem spiritus et stetit coram Domino et ait ego decipiam illum cui locutus est Dominus in quo
A spirit came out and stood before Jehovah, and said, 'I will entice him.'
22 et ille ait egrediar et ero spiritus mendax in ore omnium prophetarum eius et dixit Dominus decipies et praevalebis egredere et fac ita
Jehovah said to him, 'How?' He said, 'I will go out and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' He said, 'You will entice him, and will also prevail. Go out and do so.'
23 nunc igitur ecce dedit Dominus spiritum mendacii in ore omnium prophetarum tuorum qui hic sunt et Dominus locutus est contra te malum
Now therefore, look, Jehovah has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and Jehovah has pronounced disaster against you."
24 accessit autem Sedecias filius Chanaan et percussit Micheam in maxillam et dixit mene ergo dimisit spiritus Domini et locutus est tibi
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?"
25 et ait Micheas visurus es in die illa quando ingredieris cubiculum intra cubiculum ut abscondaris
Micaiah said, "Look, you will see on that day, when you go into an inner room to hide yourself."
26 et ait rex Israhel tollite Micheam et maneat apud Amon principem civitatis et apud Ioas filium Ammelech
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.
27 et dicite eis haec dicit rex mittite virum istum in carcerem et sustentate eum pane tribulationis et aqua angustiae donec revertar in pace
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 come in peace."'"
28 dixitque Micheas si reversus fueris in pace non est locutus Dominus in me et ait audite populi omnes
Micaiah said, "If you return at all in peace, Jehovah has not spoken by me." He said, "Listen, all you people."
29 ascendit itaque rex Israhel et Iosaphat rex Iuda in Ramoth Galaad
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
30 dixitque rex Israhel ad Iosaphat sume arma et ingredere proelium et induere vestibus tuis porro rex Israhel mutavit habitum et ingressus est bellum
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but you put on your robes." The king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
31 rex autem Syriae praeceperat principibus curruum triginta duobus dicens non pugnabitis contra minorem et maiorem quempiam nisi contra regem Israhel solum
Now the king of Aram had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.
32 cum ergo vidissent principes curruum Iosaphat suspicati sunt quod ipse esset rex Israhel et impetu facto pugnabant contra eum et exclamavit Iosaphat
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, "Surely that is the king of Israel." and they turned aside to fight against him. Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 intellexeruntque principes curruum quod non esset rex Israhel et cessaverunt ab eo
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
34 unus autem quidam tetendit arcum in incertum sagittam dirigens et casu percussit regem Israhel inter pulmonem et stomachum at ille dixit aurigae suo verte manum tuam et eice me de exercitu quia graviter vulneratus sum
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 his chariot, "Turn your hand, and carry me out of the battle; for I am severely wounded."
35 commissum est ergo proelium in die illa et rex Israhel stabat in curru suo contra Syros et mortuus est vesperi fluebat autem sanguis plagae in sinum currus
The battle increased that day. The king was propped up in his chariot facing the Arameans, and died at evening. The blood ran out of the wound into the bottom of the chariot.
36 et praeco personuit in universo exercitu antequam sol occumberet dicens unusquisque revertatur in civitatem et in terram suam
A cry went throughout the army about the going down of the sun, saying, "Every man to his city, and every man to his country."
37 mortuus est autem rex et perlatus est Samariam sepelieruntque regem in Samaria
So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
38 et laverunt currum in piscina Samariae et linxerunt canes sanguinem eius et habenas laverunt iuxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat
They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood where the prostitutes washed themselves; according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke.
39 reliqua vero sermonum Ahab et universa quae fecit et domus eburneae quam aedificavit cunctarumque urbium quas extruxit nonne scripta sunt haec in libro verborum dierum regum Israhel
Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
40 dormivit ergo Ahab cum patribus suis et regnavit Ohozias filius eius pro eo
So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
41 Iosaphat filius Asa regnare coeperat super Iudam anno quarto Ahab regis Israhel
Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
42 triginta quinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset et viginti et quinque annos regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Azuba filia Salai
Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
43 et ambulavit in omni via Asa patris sui et non declinavit ex ea fecitque quod rectum est in conspectu Domini verumtamen excelsa non abstulit adhuc enim populus sacrificabat et adolebat incensum in excelsis
He walked in all the way of Asa his father; He did not turn aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah: however the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
44 pacemque habuit Iosaphat cum rege Israhel
Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
45 reliqua autem verborum Iosaphat et opera eius quae gessit et proelia nonne haec scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Iuda
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he showed, and how he warred, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
46 sed et reliquias effeminatorum qui remanserant in diebus Asa patris eius abstulit de terra
The remnant of the male temple prostitutes, that remained in the days of his father Asa, he put away out of the land.
47 nec erat tunc rex constitutus in Edom
There was no king in Edom: a deputy was king.
48 rex vero Iosaphat fecerat classes in mari quae navigarent in Ophir propter aurum et ire non potuerunt quia confractae sunt in Asiongaber
Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold: but they did not go; for the ships were broken at Ezion Geber.
49 tunc ait Ohozias filius Ahab ad Iosaphat vadant servi mei cum servis tuis in navibus et noluit Iosaphat
Then Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, "Let my servants go with your servants in the ships." But Jehoshaphat would not.
50 dormivitque cum patribus suis et sepultus est cum eis in civitate David patris sui regnavitque Ioram filius eius pro eo
Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David his father; Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
51 Ohozias autem filius Ahab regnare coeperat super Israhel in Samaria anno septimodecimo Iosaphat regis Iuda regnavitque super Israhel duobus annis
Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel.
52 et fecit malum in conspectu Domini et ambulavit in via patris sui et matris suae et in via Hieroboam filii Nabath qui peccare fecit Israhel
He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, in which he made Israel to sin.
53 servivit quoque Baal et adoravit eum et inritavit Dominum Deum Israhel iuxta omnia quae fecerat pater eius
He served Baal, and worshiped him, and provoked to anger Jehovah, the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
