< 2 Meʻa Hokohoko 18 >
1 Pea ko eni naʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻae koloa mo e nāunau ʻa Sihosafate, pea naʻe hoko ia ʻo kau taha mo ʻEhapi.
[南北聯婚齊戰阿蘭]約沙法特的財產豐富,尊榮很大,且與阿哈布聯婚。
2 Pea hili ʻae ngaahi taʻu naʻe ʻalu hifo ia kia ʻEhapi ki Samēlia. Pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe ʻEhapi ʻae fanga sipi mo e fanga pulu ʻo lahi ʻaupito, ko hono tali, pea maʻae kakai naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻo ne fakalotoʻi ia ke ʻalu hake mo ia ki Lemoti-Kiliati.
幾年內以後,他到撒瑪黎雅去見阿哈布。阿哈布為他和跟從他的隨員,宰殺了許多牛羊,慫恿他去攻打辣摩特基肋阿得。
3 Pea pehē ʻe ʻEhapi ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli kia Sihosafate ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, “Te ke fie ʻalu mo au ki Lemoti-Kiliati?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “ʻOku ou loto fakataha mo koe, pea ʻoku tatau hoku kakai mo hoʻo kakai: pea te mau ʻiate koe ʻi he tau.”
以色列王阿哈布對猶大王約沙法特說:「你願意同我一起去攻打辣摩特基肋阿得嗎﹖」約沙法特回答說:「你我原不分彼此,我的人民就是你的人民;我必與你同去作戰。」[假先知預言勝利]
4 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihosafate ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fehuʻi ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova he ʻaho ni.”
約沙法特對以色列王說:「請你先求問上主的答話! 」
5 Ko ia naʻe tānaki ʻo fakataha ai ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mei he kau palōfita ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fāngeau, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Te mau ʻalu ki Lemoti-Kiliati ki he tau, pe te u taʻofi?” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “ʻAlu hake: he koeʻuhi ʻe tuku mai ia ʻe he ʻOtua ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi.”
以色列王於是召集了先知,共四百人,問他們說:「我們應該上去進攻辣摩特基肋阿得﹖還是不去呢﹖」他們回答說:「上主,天主必將那地交於大王手中。」
6 Ka naʻe pehē ʻe Sihosafate, “ʻOku ʻikai ʻi heni ha palōfita ʻa Sihova ʻoku toe, koeʻuhi ke tau fehuʻi ai kiate ia?”
但是約沙法特說:「這裏就沒有一位上只的先知,我們可以託他求問嗎﹖」
7 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli kia Sihosafate, “ʻOku kei toe ʻae tangata ʻe tokotaha, ʻaia ke tau fehuʻi ai kia Sihova: ka ʻoku ou fehiʻa kiate ia: he ʻoku ʻikai siʻi fakahā ʻe ia ha lelei kiate au, ka ko e kovi maʻuaipē: ko Mikaia ia ko e foha ʻo Imila.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihosafate, “Ke ʻoua naʻa lea pehē ʻe he tuʻi.”
以色列王回答約沙法特說:「還有一個人,可以託他求問天主,不過我憎恨他,因為他對我說預言,總不說吉祥話,常說兇言;這人就是依默拉的兒子米加雅。」約沙法特對他說:「請大王別這樣說! 」
8 Pea naʻe ui ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ki heʻene tangata talifekau, ʻo ne pehē, ʻAlu ʻo ʻomi ke vave ʻa Mikaia ko e foha ʻo Imila.
於是以色列王召來一個宦官,吩咐他說:「快去將依默拉的兒子米加雅召來! 」
9 Pea ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, mo Sihosafate ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻa na nofo taki taha ʻi hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi kuo teunga ʻaki hona pulupulu, pea na nonofo ʻi he malaʻe ʻi he hūʻanga ki he matapā ʻo Samēlia: pea naʻe kikite ʻe he kau palōfita kotoa pē ʻi hona ʻao.
當時以色列王和猶大王約沙法特在撒瑪黎雅城門前的廣場上,各穿朝服,坐在寶座上;所有的先知在他們面前說預言。
10 Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe Setikia ko e foha ʻo Kinana ʻae ongo nifo ukamea maʻana, ʻo ne pehē, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te ke tekeʻi ʻa Silia ʻaki ʻae meʻa ni ʻo fai ai pe ke nau ʻauha.”
革納阿納的兒子漆德克雅帶了一些鐵角說:「上主這樣說:你要用這些鐵角刺殺阿蘭人,直到將他們消滅。」
11 Pea naʻe kikite pehē pe ʻae kau palōfita kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu hake ki Lemoti-Kiliati, pea ke monūʻia: koeʻuhi ʻe tuku mai ia ʻe Sihova ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi.”
所有的先知也這樣預言說:「你上辣摩特基肋阿得去必會勝利,上主必將那地交於大王手中! 」[米加雅預言戰敗]
12 Pea naʻe lea ʻae tangata fekau ʻaia naʻe ʻalu ke ui ʻa Mikaia, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai, ko e ngaahi lea ʻae kau palōfita ʻoku fakahā pe ʻae lelei ki he tuʻi: ko ia, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke pehē pe hoʻo lea, ke hangē ha taha ʻokinautolu, pea ke lea lelei koe.”
那去召米加雅的使者對米加雅說:「看,先知們都異口同聲對君王說吉祥的話,希望你說的話也與他們每人說的話一樣,也是吉祥的話! 」
13 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mikaia, “ʻI he moʻui ʻa Sihova, ko ia ʻoku tala kiate au ʻe hoku ʻOtua, ko ia pe te u lea ʻaki.”
米加雅回答說:「我指著永生的上主起誓:我的天主吩咐什麼,我就說什麼! 」
14 Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ia ki he tuʻi, naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “Te mau ʻalu ki Lemoti-Kiliati ke tau, pe te u taʻofi?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Mou ʻalu hake, mo monūʻia, pea ʻe tuku mai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ki homou nima.”
米加雅來到王那裏,王就問他說:「米加雅,我們應該上去進攻辣摩特基肋阿得,還是不去呢﹖」他回答說:「上去,必然勝利,他們必落在你們手中。」
15 Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi kiate ia, “ʻE liunga fiha ʻeku fakafuakavaʻi koe ke ʻoua naʻa ke lea ki ha meʻa ka ke tala ʻae moʻoni kiate au ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova?”
君王對他說:「我應當多少次叫你宣誓,你纔奉上主的名,對我說實話呢﹖」
16 Pea toki pehē ʻe ia, “Naʻaku mamata ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē naʻe movetevete ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi ʻoku ʻikai hanau tauhi: pea pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Ko kinautolu ni, ʻoku ʻikai hanau ʻeiki: ko ia, tuku ke nau liu mai taki taha ki hono fale ʻi he fiemālie.’”
米加雅答說:「我看見全以色列散在山上,好像沒有牧人的羊群。上主說:這些人既然沒有主人,更好各自平安回家去罷! 」
17 Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli kia Sihosafate, “ʻIkai naʻaku tala kiate koe ʻe ʻikai te ne tala ha lelei kiate au, ka ko e kovi pe?”
以色列王對約沙法特說:「我不是告訴過你,他對我說預言,總不說吉祥話,只說兇言麼﹖」
18 Pea toe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko ia fanongo ki he folofola ʻa Sihova: Naʻaku mamata kia Sihova ʻoku nofo ʻi hono ʻafioʻanga, pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe langi ʻi hono nima toʻomataʻu mo hono toʻohema.
米加雅答說:「請你們靜聽上主的話:我見上主坐在寶座上,天上的萬軍侍立在他左右。
19 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Ko hai ʻe faʻa fakalotoʻi ʻa ʻEhapi ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ke ʻalu hake ia ʻo tō ʻi Lemoti-Kiliati? Pea naʻe lea ʻe he tokotaha ʻo pehē, ʻe pehē pe ia, pea lea ʻe he taha kehe ʻo pehē, ʻe pehē na ia.
上主問說:誰去唆使以色列王阿哈布上去,叫他陣王在辣摩特基肋阿得呢﹖那時有的說這樣,有的說那樣。
20 Pea naʻe toki haʻu kituʻa ʻae laumālie ʻe taha, pea tuʻu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo ne pehē, ‘Te u fakalotoʻi ia.’ Pea pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘ʻAki ʻae hā?’
以後有一個神出來,立在上主面前說:我能唆使他。上主的問他說:用什麼方法﹖
21 Pea pehē ʻe ia, ‘Te u ʻalu atu, pea u hoko ko e laumālie loi ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻene kau palōfita kotoa pē.’ Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Te ke faʻa fakalotoʻi ia, pea ke lavaʻi ia foki: ʻalu atu, pea ke fai ia.’”
那神答說:我去,在他所有先知們口中做虛言的神。上主回答說:你能唆使,也必會成功的,就去照樣辦罷!
22 Pea ko eni, “Vakai, kuo tuku ʻe Sihova ʻae laumālie loi ʻi he ngutu ʻo ho kau palōfita ni, pea kuo folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaki ʻae kovi kiate koe.”
現在上主將虛言的神放入你這些先知口中,上主已注定你必遭殃。」
23 Pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi ʻa Setikia ko e foha ʻo Kinana, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻa Mikaia ʻi he kouʻahe, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e fē ʻae hala naʻe fou ai ʻae Laumālie ʻo Sihova meiate au ke lea kiate koe?”
那時,革納阿納的兒子漆德克雅前來,打米加雅的臉說:「上主的神由那條路離開了我,而同你說話呢﹖」
24 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mikaia, “Vakai, te ke mamata ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻaia te ke hū ai ki he loki ʻi loto ke fufū koe.”
米加雅答說:「在你進入最嚴密的室內隱藏的那一天,你就會知道了! 」
25 Pea pehē ai ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “Mou puke ʻa Mikaia, pea toe ʻave ia kia ʻAmoni ko e pule ʻoe kolo, pea kia Soasi ko e foha ʻoe tuʻi:
以色列王吩咐說:「將米加雅帶去,交給阿孟市長和約阿布王子,
26 pea ke pehē, ‘ʻOku pehē mai ʻae tuʻi, Fakahū ʻae siana ni ki he fale fakapōpula, pea fafanga ia ʻaki ʻae mā ʻoe mamahi mo e vai ʻoe mamahi, ʻo aʻu ki heʻeku liu mai ʻi he fiemālie.’”
說君王這樣吩咐:將這人下在監裏,少給他吃的喝的,等我平安回來。」
27 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mikaia, “Kapau te ke liu mai moʻoni ʻi he fiemālie, pea tā naʻe ʻikai folofola ʻa Sihova ʻiate au.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “ʻAe kakai kotoa pē, mou tokanga.”
米加雅說:「你如果能平安回來,那麼,上主就沒藉我說過話。」又說:「眾百姓! 你們要聽清楚啊! 」[阿哈布陣亡]
28 Ko ia, naʻe ʻalu hake ki Lemoti-Kiliati ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mo Sihosafate ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta.
以色列王遂與猶大王約沙法特上去進攻辣摩特基肋阿得。
29 Pea pehē ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli kia Sihosafate, “Te u fakapuli au, pea u ʻalu ki he tau: ka ke ʻai ʻe koe ʻa ho ngaahi pulupulu teunga.” Ko ia naʻe fakapuli ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli; pea naʻa na ō ki he tau.
以色列王對約沙法特說:「我要改裝上陣,你可仍穿朝服。」於是以色列王改裝上了陣。
30 Pea ko eni naʻe ʻosi hono fekau ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Silia ki he ngaahi ʻeiki pule ʻo ʻene ngaahi saliote ʻaia naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa mou tau ki he siʻi pe ki he lahi, ka ki he tuʻi pe ʻo ʻIsileli.”
阿蘭王曾吩咐自己的戰車隊長說:「你們不必與大小將士交戰,只攻打以色列王。」
31 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he mamata ʻae kau ʻeiki pule ʻoe ngaahi saliote kia Sihosafate, naʻa nau pehē, “Ko e tuʻi ia ʻo ʻIsileli.” Ko ia naʻa nau tuʻu takatakai ʻiate ia ke tau: ka naʻe tangi kalanga ʻa Sihosafate, pea naʻe tokoni ia ʻe Sihova: pea naʻe fakalotoʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻOtua ke nau ʻalu ʻiate ia.
戰車隊長一看見約沙法特,便說:「這必是以色列王! 」遂將他包圍,向他進攻;約沙法特連聲叫苦,上主援助了他,天主使敵人遠離了他。
32 He naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he mamata ʻe he houʻeiki pule ʻoe ngaahi saliote ʻo ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai ko e tuʻi ia ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻa nau foki ki mui mei he tuli kiate ia.
戰車隊長見他不是以色列王,就不再追擊他。
33 Pea ko e tangata ʻe taha naʻe teke ʻae kau fana ʻo fana noa pe, pea naʻe tau ia ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe hokoʻanga ʻoe kofu tau: ko ia naʻa ne pehē ai ki heʻene tangata saliote, “Tafoki ho nima, koeʻuhi ke ke ʻave au kituʻa mei he tau he kuo u lavea.”
有人偶然一箭,正射入以色列王的鎧甲與腰帶中,君王對駕車的人說:「轉回,載我離開陣地,我已受傷。」
34 Pea naʻe tupu mālohi ʻae tau ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: ka naʻe poupou hake ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi heʻene saliote ʻo tauʻi ʻae kakai Silia ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi, pea naʻe pekia ia ʻo feʻunga mo e ʻalu hifo ʻae laʻā.
但那天戰事越來越激烈,以色列王仍立在車上,抵抗阿蘭人,直到晚上;日落的時後,王就死了。
