1 Mpanjaka 22
1 Le lia’e tsy nialy telo taoñe ty Arame naho Israele.
And they remained [at rest] three years, there being no war between Syria and Israel.
2 Ie amy taom-paha-teloy, le nizotso mb’amy mpanjaka’ Israeley mb’eo t’Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
And it came to pass in the third year that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
3 Aa hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele amo mpitoro’eo: Fohi’ areo hao te antika t’i Ramote-Gilade? fe mbe eo avao tika tsy nandrambe aze am-pitam-panjaka’ i Arame.
And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that Ramoth in Gil'ad is ours, and we remain idle, without taking it out of the hand of the king of Syria?
4 Le hoe re am’ Iehosafate: Hitraok’ amako hao irehe hifandrapake e Ramote-Gilade añe? le hoe t’Iehosafate amy mpanjaka’ Israeley: Ama’o iraho manahake ty vata’o, ondatikoo hoe ondati’o, o soavalakoo hoe soavala’o.
And he said unto Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to the battle against Ramoth-gil'ad? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I [will be] like thee, my people like thy people, my horses like thy horses.
5 Le hoe t’Iehosafate amy mpanjaka’ Israeley: Ehe, paiao hey ty tsara’ Iehovà.
And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, today [first] of the word of the Lord.
6 Aa le natonto’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley o mpitokio, va’e ondaty efa-jato, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Homb’ e Ramote-Gilade mb’eo hao iraho hifañotakotake, he hifoneñe? Le hoe iereo: Miavota; fa hitolora’ i Talè am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
Then assembled the king of Israel the prophets, about four hundred men, and said unto them, shall I go against Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; and the Lord will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
7 Aa hoe t’Iehosafate: Tsy amam-pitoki’ Iehovà hao ty atoy hañontanean-tika?
And Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Eternal besides, that we might inquire of him?
8 Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate: Mbe añe t’indaty raike hampañontanean-tika am’ Iehovà, i Mikaià ana’ Imlà; fe hejeko; amy te tsy soa ty fitokia’e amako fa raty. Le hoe t’Iehosafate: Ee te tsy hanao izay ty mpanjaka!
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we might inquire of the Lord; but I hate him; for he will never prophesy good concerning me, but evil: [it is] Michayhu the son of Yimlah. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
9 Aa le kinanji’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley ty mpifehe, nanao ty hoe: Hitrifo masika t’i Mikaià ana’ Imlà.
Then called the king of Israel a certain officer, and said, Hasten hither Michayhu the son of Yimlah.
10 Ie amy zao songa niambesatse am-piambesa’e, nisarimbo an-toem-pamofohañe an-dalambeim-pimoaha’ i Somerone ey ty mpanjaka’ Israele naho Iosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda; le nitoky añatrefa’ iereo o mpitoky iabio.
And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, dressed in their regal garments, in a threshing-floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
11 Nandranjy tsifa viñe ho aze t’i Tsedekià ana’ i Kenaanà nanao ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Ho tombohe’o amo retiañe o nte-Arameo am-para’ te mongotse.
And Zedekiah the son of Kena'anah had made himself horns of iron; and he said, Thus hath said the Lord, With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou have made an end of them.
12 Le nitoky hoe izay iaby o mpitokio, nanao ty hoe: Mionjona mb’e Ramote-Gilade mb’eo le miraoraòa; fa hatolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gil'ad, and prosper; and the Lord will deliver it into the king's hand.
13 Nisaontsie’ i nampihitrifeñe amy Mikaià ty hoe: Inao: mikoike hasoa amy mpanjakay am-palie raike ty fisaontsi’ o mpitokio, aa, ee te hanahake ty fisaontsi’ ty raik’ am’ iereo o enta’oo, fa ty hasoa ty atao’o.
And the messenger that went to call Michayhu spoke unto him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets are with one voice good for the king: do let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word of any one of them, and speak something good.
14 Aa hoe t’i Mikaià: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, ze hafè’ Iehovà amako, izay ty ho taroñeko.
And Michayhu said, As the Lord liveth, truly, what the Lord may say unto me, that will I speak.
15 Ie pok’ amy mpanjakay eo, le hoe i mpanjakay ama’e: O Mikaià, hionjomb’ e Ramote-Gilade mb’eo hao tika, he hifoneñe? Le hoe re: Mionjona, miraoraòa, fa hatolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ i mpanjakay.
And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Michayhu, shall we go against Ramoth-gil'ad to battle, or shall we forbear? And he answered him, Go up, and prosper; and may the Lord deliver it into the hand of the king.
16 Le hoe i mpanjakay ama’e: Im-pire hao t’ie hitolom-pamantoke azo ty tsy hisaontsy amako naho tsy ty hatò ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà?
And the king said unto him, How many times yet must I adjure thee that thou shalt not speak to me anything but the truth in the name of the Lord?
17 Le hoe re: Nitreako te hene niparaitak’ amo vohitseo t’Israele, manahak’ añondry tsy amam-piarake; aa le hoe t’Iehovà: Po-talè iereo; apoho songa himpoly mb’ an-kiboho’e mb’eo an-kanintsiñe.
And he said, I saw all Israel scattered over the mountains, as flocks that have not a shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.
18 Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate: Aa vaho tsy vinolako ama’o hao te tsy ty soa ty hitokia’e ahy fa ty raty.
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Did I not say unto thee that he would not prophesy concerning me any good, but [only] evil?
19 Le hoe re: Aa le janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà. Nitreako t’Iehovà niambesatse amy fiambesa’ey naho nijohañe añ’ ila’e am-pità’e havana naho an-kavia’e i valobohòn-dikerañey.
And he said, Therefore hear thou the word of the Lord, I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right and on his left.
20 Le hoe t’Iehovà: Ia ty hanigìke i Akabe, hionjona’e hikorovoke e Ramote-gilade añe. Nanao hoe zao ty raike, naho hoe izay ty ila’e.
And the Lord said, Who will persuade Achab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gil'ad! And one said, In this manner, and another said, In that manner.
21 Nionjomb’ eo amy zao ty fañahy nijohañe añatrefa’ Iehovà ey, nanao ty hoe: Izaho ty hanigìk’ aze. Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e: Ami’ty manao akore?
And there came forth a spirit, and placed himself before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. And the Lord said unto him, Wherewith?
22 Le hoe re, Hionjomb’ eo iraho ho fañahim-bande am-palie’ o mpitoky iabio. Le hoe re: Ihe arè ty hanigik’ aze vaho ho tahieñe; akia, anò.
And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou wilt persuade him, and also prevail: go forth, and do so.
23 Ie amy zao, mahaoniña te nampipoha’ Iehovà am-palie’ o hene mpitoky retoañe ty fañahin-dremborake; fe nitsara hànkañe ama’o t’Iehovà.
And now, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets; but the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee.
24 Le nañarine aze t’i Tsedekià ana’ i Kenaanà naho tinampifi’e am-pivimbi’e ty Mikaià vaho nanao ty hoe: Nimb’ aia i fañahi’ Iehovà niboak’ amako hampivolañe azoy?
And Zedekiah, the son of Kena'anah, went near, and struck Michayhu on the cheek, and said, Which way passed the Spirit of the Lord away from me to speak with thee!
25 Le hoe t’i Mikaià: Mahafohina te ho isa’o ami’ty andro himoaha’o hietak’ an-traño añate’e ao.
And Michayhu said, Behold, thou shalt see it on that day, when thou shalt go into the innermost chamber to hide thyself.
26 Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele, Rambeso t’i Mikaià le aseseo amy Amone mpifelek’ i rovay naho am’ Ioase ana’ i mpanjakay;
And the king of Israel said, Take Michayhu, and carry him back unto Amon the governor of the city, and unto Joash the king's son;
27 le ano ty hoe: Hoe ty saontsi’ i mpanjakay: Agabeño ampandrohizañe ao t’indaty tia vaho fahano mofon-kasotriañe naho ranon-kaoreañe ampara’ te mimpoly an-kanintsin-draho.
And say, Thus hath said the king, Put this man in the prison, and feed him with sparing bread and with sparing water, until I come home in peace.
28 Le hoe t’i Mikaià, Naho mimpoly an-kanintsin-drehe le tsy nitsara añamako t’Iehovà. Le hoe re: Mijanjiña ondatio; inahareo iaby.
And Michayhu said, If thou return at all in peace, then hath the Lord not spoken through me. And he said, Hear it, O all ye nations!
29 Aa le nionjomb’e Ramote-gilade mb’eo ty mpanjaka’ Israele naho Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
So the king of Israel went up with Jehoshaphat the king of Judah to Ramoth-gil'ad.
30 Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele am’ Iehosafate: Hañonohono vatan-draho vaho himoak’ ankotakotak’ ao; fe ampiombeo o saro’oo. Le nañonohono ty mpanjaka’ Israele, t’ie nionjomb’ añ’ aly mb’eo.
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and enter into the battle; but do thou put on thy regal garments. And the king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
31 Ie amy zao fa linili’ i mpanjaka’ i Aramey i mpifehen-tsarete’e telo-polo-ro’ amby rey ami’ty hoe: Ko mialy ami’ ty kede ndra ami’ ty bey, fa amy mpanjaka Israeley avao.
And the king of Syria had commanded the captains over his chariots, thirty-two [in number], saying, Fight neither with a small nor a great one, save only with the king of Israel alone.
32 Aa ie nioni’ o mpifehen-tsareteo t’Iehosafate, le nanao ty hoe: Inge ie! ty mpanjaka’ Israele, le hene nitolike hialy ama’e; vaho nikoike t’Iehosafate.
And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, Surely this is the king of Israel. And they turned aside against him to fight: and Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 Aa ie nioni’ i mpifehen-tsarete rey t’ie tsy mpanjaka’ Israele, le nivio tsy nañoridañ’ aze ka.
And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from following him.
34 Le teo t’indaty nampibitso-pale tsy nahi’e, vaho trinofa’e ty mpanjaka’ Israele añivo’ ty fikalañ’ ambane naho ty fikalañ’ araña’e ao; aa le hoe re amy mpinday sarete’ey: Ampitoliho ty fità’o, le akaro amy valobohòkey iraho, fa vata’e fere.
But a man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints and the armor; wherefore he said unto his chariot-driver. Turn about, and carry me out of the camp; for I am wounded.
35 Niindra avao ty aly amy andro zay, le nampiatoeñe amy sarete’ey am-piatrefañe o nte-Arameo i mpanjakay, le nihomake te hariva; nikararàke boak’ am-pere’e mb’an gorodo’ i saretey ty lio’e.
And the battle increased on that day; and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians; but he died in the evening: and the blood of the wound flowed down into the hollow of the chariot.
36 Nipoñak’ amy zao ty koike niboele amy valobohòkey te tsofots’ àndro nanao ty hoe: Songa ondaty mb’ an-drova’e, fonga ondaty mb’ an-tane’e añe.
And there went a proclamation throughout the camp at the going down of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his own land.
37 Aa le nihomake i mpanjakay, vaho nendeseñe e Somerone; le nalente’ iereo e Somerone ao i mpanjakay.
So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
38 Sinasa marine’ i antara’ i Someroney i sarete’ey, naho tsinela’ o amboao ty lio’e, (toe fiandroa’ o tsimirirañeo ty ao), ty amy enta’ Iehovà nitsarae’ey.
And the chariot was washed out at the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood, as they washed his armor: according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.
39 O fitoloña’ i Akabe ila’eo naho o nanoe’e iabio naho i anjomba niranjie’e an-tsifay vaho o rova maro namboare’eo, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Israeleoy hao?
Now the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
40 Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Akabe; vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Ahkazià ana’e.
So Achab slept with his fathers: and Achazyahu his son became king in his stead.
41 Niorotse nifehe e Iehoda t’Iehosafate ana’ i Asa amy taom-paha-efa’ i Akabe mpanjaka’ Israeley.
And Jehoshaphat the son of Assa became king over Judah in the fourth year of Achab the king of Israel.
42 Ni-telopolo taoñe lime amby t’Iehosafate t’ie namototse nifeleke; le taoñe roapolo-lime amby ty nifehea’e e Ierosalaime ao. I Azobà, ana’ i Silký ty tahinan-drene’e.
Jehoshaphat was thirty and five years old when he became king, and twenty and five years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was 'Azubah the daughter of Shilchi.
43 Nañavelo ami’ty lia’ i Asà rae’e re, tsy nivìk’ ama’e le ze mahity am-pihaino’ Iehovà avao ty nanoe’e;
And he walked in all the ways of Assa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord: Nevertheless the high-places were not removed; for the people still offered, and burnt incense on the high-places.
44 fe tsy nafahañe añe o tambohoo; le mbe nanao soroñe naho nañenga amo tambohoo ondatio.
And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
45 Nifampilongo amy mpanjaka’ Israeley t’Iehosafate.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his mighty deeds that he showed, and how he warred, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
46 Le o fitoloña’ Iehosafate ila’eo naho i haozara’e naboa’ey vaho o fialia’eo; tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
And the remnant of the sodomites, that had been left in the days of his father Assa, did he put away out of the land.
47 Naho o Tsivoatsolo sehanga’eo, o mbe nisisa faha’ i Asa, rae’eo, le finongo’e amy taney.
There was then no king in Edom: a deputy was king.
48 Tsy amam-panjaka t’Edome, fa mpifeleke ty nisolo i mpanjakay.
Jehoshaphat made Tharshish-ships to go to Ophir for gold; but they went not; for the ships were wrecked at 'Ezyon-geber.
49 Nandranjy sambon-Tarsise t’Iehosafate hitoha volamena e Ofira añe; f’ie tsy nionjomb’eo; nifoy e Etsione-gebere ao i sambo rey.
Then said Achazyahu the son of Achab unto Jehoshaphat, Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not.
50 Le hoe t’i Ahkazià ana’ i Akabe am’ Iehosafate: Angao hindre lia amo mpitoro’oo an-tsambo’ o mpitorokoo. Fe tsy nimete t’Iehosafate.
And Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoram his son became king in his stead.
51 Le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’Iehosafate, naho nalentek’ aman-droae’e an-drova’ i Davide, rae’e ao vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’Iehorame ana’e.
Achazyahu the son of Achab became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah; and he reigned over Israel two years.
52 Niorotse nifehe Israele e Somerone ao t’i Ahkazià amy taom-paha-folo-fito’ ambi’ Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoday, le nifehe Israele roe taoñe,
And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, who had induced Israel to sin.
53 fe nanao halò-tserehañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà naho nañavelo an-tsatan-drae’e naho an-tsatan-drene’e naho an-tsata’ Iarovame ana’ i Nebate, ie nampanan-kakeo’ Israele. Nitoroñe i Baale re naho nitalahoa’e vaho nisigihe’e t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, fonga nitsikombè’e o nanoen-droae’eo.
And he served Ba'al, and bowed down to him, and he provoked to anger the Lord the God of Israel, all just as his father had done.
