1 Un Jehošafatam bija daudz bagātības un godības un viņš palika rada Ahabam.

And it came to pass, when Jehoshaphat had riches and honour, in abundance, that he contracted, by marriage, affinity with Ahab.

2 Un pēc kādiem gadiem viņš nogāja pie Ahaba uz Samariju. Un Ahabs viņam un tiem ļaudīm, kas viņam bija līdz, kāva avis un vēršus lielu pulku, un to paskubināja iet pret Rāmotu Gileādā.

So he went down, at the end of some years, unto Ahab, to Samaria, Ahab therefore sacrificed for him, sheep and oxen, in abundance, also for the people whom he had with him, -and then persuaded him to go up against Ramoth-gilead.

3 Un Ahabs, Israēla ķēniņš, sacīja uz Jehošafatu, Jūda ķēniņu: vai tu gribi ar mani iet pret Rāmotu Gileādā? Un tas uz viņu sacīja: es būšu kā tu, un mani ļaudis, kā tavi ļaudis, un mēs iesim tev līdz karā.

For Ahab king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go up with me to Ramoth-gilead? And he said unto him—So am I, even as thou, and, like thy people, are my people, and, with thee, in the war.

4 Un Jehošafats sacīja uz Israēla ķēniņu: vaicā jel šodien Tā Kunga vārdu.

Then said Jehoshaphat, unto the king of Israel, —Seek, I pray thee, some time to-day, the word of Yahweh.

5 Tad Israēla ķēniņš sapulcināja praviešus, četrsimt vīrus, un uz tiem sacīja: vai mums būs iet karā pret Rāmotu Gileādā, jeb vai man nebūs iet? Un tie sacīja: ej, jo Dievs to nodos ķēniņa rokā.

So the king of Israel gathered together the prophets, four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go up against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said—Go up, and may God deliver it into the hand of the king!

6 Bet Jehošafats sacīja: vai šeitan vēl nav kāds no Tā Kunga praviešiem, ka tam varētu vaicāt?

Then said Jehoshaphat, Is there not here a prophet of Yahweh, besides, —that we may seek, from him?

7 Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz Jehošafatu: vēl ir viens vīrs, caur ko To Kungu var vaicāt, bet es viņu ienīstu, jo tas man nesludina labas lietas, bet ļaunas vien, Miha, Jemlas dēls. Un Jehošafats sacīja: lai ķēniņš tā nerunā.

Then said the king of Israel unto Jehoshaphat—There is yet one man, by whom to seek Yahweh, but, I, hate him, for he is never prophesying, concerning me, anything good—but—all his days—evil, the same, is Micaiah, son of Imla. Then said Jehoshaphat, Let not the king say, so!

8 Tad Israēla ķēniņš sauca vienu kambarjunkuri un sacīja: atved steigšus Mihu, Jemlas dēlu.

And the king of Israel called for a certain officer, —and said, Haste, Micaiah son of Imla!

9 Un Israēla ķēniņš un Jehošafats, Jūda ķēniņš, sēdēja ikkatrs uz sava krēsla ar savām drēbēm apģērbti, un tie sēdēja pagalmā priekš Samarijas vārtiem, un visi tie pravieši sludināja viņu priekšā.

Now, the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, were sitting, each upon his throne, clothed in robes, and they were sitting in an open space, at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, —and, all the prophets, were prophesying before them.

10 Un Cedeķija, Knaēnas dēls, sev taisīja dzelzs ragus un sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: ar šiem tu badīsi Sīriešus, tiekams tos būsi izdeldējis.

Then did Zedekiah son of Chenaanah make him horns of iron, —and said—Thus, saith Yahweh, With these, shalt thou push Syria, until they are consumed.

11 Un visi pravieši sludināja sacīdami: celies pret Rāmotu Gileādā, tev būs laba laime, jo Tas Kungs to dos ķēniņa rokā.

And, all the prophets, were prophesying, so, saying, -Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper, and Yahweh will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.

12 Un tas vēstnesis, kas bija gājis Mihu aicināt, uz to runāja un sacīja: redzi jel, tie pravieši runā vienā mutē labu ķēniņam, lai jel tavs vārds tāpat ir kā viņu vārds, un runā labu.

And, the messenger who went to call Micaiah, spake unto him, saying, Lo! the words of the prophets, with one mouth, are good for the king, —be thy word then, I pray thee, like one of theirs, so wilt thou speak good.

13 Bet Miha sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo: ko mans Dievs man sacīs, to es runāšu.

Then said Micaiah, —By the life of Yahweh, whatsoever my God shall say, that, must I speak.

14 Un kad viņš ķēniņa priekšā nāca, tad ķēniņš uz viņu sacīja: Miha, vai mums būs iet karā pret Rāmotu Gileādā, jeb vai man nebūs iet? Un tas sacīja: ceļaties, jums būs laba laime, jo tie taps doti jūsu rokā.

Now, when he came unto the king, the king said unto him, Micah, shall we go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up and prosper, and may they be delivered into your hand.

15 Bet ķēniņš uz viņu sacīja: cik reiz lai es tev piekodināju, man cita nekā nesacīt, kā vien kas tiesa Tā Kunga Vārdā?

Then the king said unto him, How many times, must, I, be putting thee on oath, —that thou speak unto me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?

16 Un viņš sacīja: es redzēju visu Israēli izklīdinātu pa kalniem, kā avis, kam nav gana, un Tas Kungs sacīja: šiem nav kunga, lai iet ikviens ar mieru savā namā.

So he said, I saw all Israel, scattered upon the mountains, like sheep that have no shepherd, -and Yahweh said, No masters, have these! let them return every man unto his own house, in peace.

17 Tad Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz Jehošafatu: vai es tev neesmu sacījis, ka viņš par mani labu nesludina bet ļaunu vien?

Then said the king of Israel, unto Jehoshaphat, —Said I not unto thee, He wilt not prophesy concerning me anything good, but evil?

18 Un (Miha) sacīja: tādēļ klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu: es redzēju To Kungu sēžam uz Sava godības krēsla un visu debess spēku ap Viņu stāvam pa labo un pa kreiso roku.

Then said he, Therefore, hear ye the word of Yahweh, —I saw Yahweh, sitting upon his throne, and, all the host of the heavens, standing, on his right hand and his left.

19 Un Tas Kungs sacīja: kas pierunās Ahabu, Israēla ķēniņu, ka tas ceļas un krīt Rāmotā Gileādā? Un viens runāja šā otrs tā.

Then said Yahweh, Who will persuade Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall in Ramoth-gilead? And one spake, saying after this manner, and another, saying after that manner.

20 Tad viens gars izgāja un nostājās Tā Kunga priekšā un sacīja: es viņu pārrunāšu. Bet Tas Kungs sacīja uz to: kā tad?

Then came there forth a spirit and stood before Yahweh, and said, I, will persuade him. And Yahweh said unto him, Wherewith?

21 Un viņš sacīja: es iziešu un būšu melu gars visu viņa praviešu mutē. Un viņš sacīja: tev būs viņu pierunāt un tu to arī spēsi, ej un dari tā.

And he said, I will go forth and become a spirit of falsehood, in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said—Thou mayest persuade, moreover also, thou shalt prevail, go forth, and do, so.

22 Un nu, redzi, Tas Kungs ir devis melu garu šo tavu praviešu mutē, un Tas Kungs ļaunu pret tevi runājis.

Now, therefore, lo! Yahweh hath suffered a spirit of falsehood to be put into the mouth of these thy prophets, —but, Yahweh, hath spoken concerning thee—evil.

23 Tad Cedeķija, Knaēnas dēls, piegāja un sita Miham vaigā un sacīja: kā gan Tā Kunga Gars no manis būtu atstājies, runāt, ar tevi?

Then drew near Zedekiah son of Chenaanah, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek, —and said, Which then is the way the spirit of Yahweh passed from me, to speak with thee?

24 Un Miha sacīja: tu to redzēsi tai dienā, kad no vienas istabas otrā iesi paslēpties.

Then said Micaiah, Lo! thou shalt see, on that day when thou shalt enter into a chamber within a chamber, to hide thyself.

25 Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja: ņemiet Mihu un vediet viņu atpakaļ pie Amona, pilsētas virsnieka, un pie Joasa, ķēniņa dēla,

Then said the king of Israel, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him back unto Amon ruler of the city, and unto Joash son of the king;

26 Un sakāt: tā saka ķēniņš: lieciet šo cietumā un ēdiniet to ar bēdu maizi un ar bēdu ūdeni, kamēr es vesels atkal pārnākšu.

and ye shall say, Thus, saith the king, Put ye this one into the prison, —and feed him with the bread of oppression, and with the water of oppression, until I return in peace.

27 Un Miha sacīja: ja tu vesels atkal pārnāksi, tad Tas Kungs caur mani nav runājis. Un viņš sacīja: klausāties, visi ļaudis!

Then said Micaiah, If thou do, at all return, in peace, Yahweh hath not spoken by me. And he said, Hear! ye peoples, all!

28 Tā Israēla ķēniņš un Jehošafats, Jūda ķēniņš, cēlās pret Rāmotu Gileādā.

Then went up the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, against Ramothgilead.

29 Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz Jehošafatu: es pārģērbies iešu kaujā, bet tu apģērbies ar savām drēbēm. Un Israēla ķēniņš pārģērbās, un tie gāja kaujā.

And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, [I am about] to disguise myself, and enter into the battle, but, thou, put on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself, and entered into the battle.

30 Un Sīriešu ķēniņš saviem ratu virsniekiem bija pavēlējis un sacījis: nelaužaties pret nevienu, ne mazu ne lielu, kā tik vien pret Israēla ķēniņu.

Now, the king of Syria, had commanded the captains of chariots which he had, saying, Ye shall not fight, with small [or] with great, —save with the king of Israel, alone.

31 Kad nu tie ratu virsnieki redzēja Jehošafatu, tad tie sacīja: tas ir Israēla ķēniņš. Un tie to apstāja uz viņu lauzdamies. Bet Jehošafats brēca, un Tas Kungs tam palīdzēja un Dievs tos no viņa novērsa.

So it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw Jehoshaphat, that, they, said, The king of Israel, it is. And they compassed him about, to fight, —but Jehoshaphat made outcry, and, Yahweh, helped him, yea God allured them away from him.

32 Jo kad tie ratu virsnieki redzēja, ka šis nebija Israēla ķēniņš, tad tie griezās no viņa atpakaļ.

And so it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him;

33 Bet viens vīrs no nejauši uzvilka savu stopu un iešāva Israēla ķēniņam starp sprādzēm un krūšu bruņām. Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz savu ratu vadoni: griez un izved mani no kaujas, jo es esmu ievainots.

but, a certain man, drawing a bow in his innocence, smote the king of Israel between the shoulder-joints and the coat of mail, —wherefore he said to the charioteer, Turn thy hand, and convey me out of the host, for I am sore wounded.

34 Un kaušanās vairojās tai dienā, un Israēla ķēniņš stāvēja savos ratos Sīriešiem pretī līdz pat vakaram un nomira, kad saule nogāja.

But the battle increased on that day, and, the king of Israel, was propping himself up in the chariot before the Syrians, until evening, -and died at the time of the going in of the sun.
