1 Mpanjaka 22
1 Le lia’e tsy nialy telo taoñe ty Arame naho Israele.
They continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.
2 Ie amy taom-paha-teloy, le nizotso mb’amy mpanjaka’ Israeley mb’eo t’Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
In the third year, 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.
The king of Israel said to his servants, “You know that Ramoth Gilead is ours, and we do nothing, and don’t take 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.
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 Le hoe t’Iehosafate amy mpanjaka’ Israeley: Ehe, paiao hey ty tsara’ Iehovà.
Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “Please inquire first for Yahweh’s word.”
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 the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, “Should I go against Ramoth Gilead to battle, or should I refrain?” They said, “Go up; for 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?
But Jehoshaphat said, “Isn’t there here a prophet of Yahweh, that we may 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!
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Yahweh, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him, for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil.” Jehoshaphat said, “Don’t let the king say so.”
9 Aa le kinanji’ i mpanjaka’ Israeley ty mpifehe, nanao ty hoe: Hitrifo masika t’i Mikaià ana’ Imlà.
Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, “Quickly get Micaiah the son of Imlah.”
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.
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 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.
Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made himself horns of iron, and said, “Yahweh says, ‘With these you will push the Syrians, until they are consumed.’”
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.
All the prophets prophesied so, saying, “Go up to Ramoth Gilead and prosper; for Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
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.
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 Aa hoe t’i Mikaià: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà, ze hafè’ Iehovà amako, izay ty ho taroñeko.
Micaiah said, “As Yahweh lives, what Yahweh says to me, that I will 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.
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 Yahweh will 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?
The king said to him, “How many times do I have to adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in Yahweh’s name?”
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.
He said, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. Yahweh said, ‘These have no master. Let them each return 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.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Didn’t I tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but 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.
Micaiah said, “Therefore hear Yahweh’s word. I saw Yahweh sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on his right hand 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.
Yahweh said, ‘Who will entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?’ One said one thing, and another said another.
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?
A spirit came out and stood before Yahweh, and said, ‘I will entice him.’
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.
Yahweh 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 Ie amy zao, mahaoniña te nampipoha’ Iehovà am-palie’ o hene mpitoky retoañe ty fañahin-dremborake; fe nitsara hànkañe ama’o t’Iehovà.
Now therefore, behold, Yahweh has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and Yahweh has spoken evil concerning you.”
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?
Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, “Which way did Yahweh’s Spirit go from me to speak to you?”
25 Le hoe t’i Mikaià: Mahafohina te ho isa’o ami’ty andro himoaha’o hietak’ an-traño añate’e ao.
Micaiah said, “Behold, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to hide yourself.”
26 Le hoe ty mpanjaka’ Israele, Rambeso t’i Mikaià le aseseo amy Amone mpifelek’ i rovay naho am’ Ioase ana’ i mpanjakay;
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 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.
Say, ‘The king says, “Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I come 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.
Micaiah said, “If you return at all in peace, Yahweh has not spoken by me.” He said, “Listen, all you people!”
29 Aa le nionjomb’e Ramote-gilade mb’eo ty mpanjaka’ Israele naho Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda.
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
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.
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 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.
Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, “Don’t fight with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.”
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.
When the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, they said, “Surely that is the king of Israel!” and they came over to fight against him. Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 Aa ie nioni’ i mpifehen-tsarete rey t’ie tsy mpanjaka’ Israele, le nivio tsy nañoridañ’ aze ka.
When the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing 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.
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 around, and carry me out of the battle, for I am severely 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.
The battle increased that day. The king was propped up in his chariot facing the Syrians, and died at evening. The blood ran out of the wound into the bottom 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.
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 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.
They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood where the prostitutes washed themselves, according to Yahweh’s word which he spoke.
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 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 Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Akabe; vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Ahkazià ana’e.
So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
41 Niorotse nifehe e Iehoda t’Iehosafate ana’ i Asa amy taom-paha-efa’ i Akabe mpanjaka’ Israeley.
Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab 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-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 Nañavelo ami’ty lia’ i Asà rae’e re, tsy nivìk’ ama’e le ze mahity am-pihaino’ Iehovà avao ty nanoe’e;
He walked in all the way of Asa his father. He didn’t turn away from it, doing that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes. However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
44 fe tsy nafahañe añe o tambohoo; le mbe nanao soroñe naho nañenga amo tambohoo ondatio.
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 might that he showed, and how he fought, aren’t they 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?
The remnant of the sodomites, that remained in the days of his father Asa, 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 no king in Edom. A deputy ruled.
48 Tsy amam-panjaka t’Edome, fa mpifeleke ty nisolo i mpanjakay.
Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they didn’t go, for the ships wrecked at Ezion 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 Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants go with your 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.
Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in his father David’s city. Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
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.
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 Niorotse nifehe Israele e Somerone ao t’i Ahkazià amy taom-paha-folo-fito’ ambi’ Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoday, le nifehe Israele roe taoñe,
He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, 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 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.
He served Baal and worshiped him, and provoked Yahweh, the God of Israel, to anger in all the ways that his father had done so.
