Aka yi shekaru uku ba a yi yaƙi tsakanin Aram da Isra’ila ba.
2 Na mfe abiɛsa no mu, ɔhene Yehosafat a odi ade wɔ Yuda kɔɔ Israelhene Ahab nkyɛn.
Amma a shekara ta uku, Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda ya gangara don yă ga sarki Isra’ila.
3 Na Ahab abisa ne mpanyimfo se, “Moahu sɛ Aramfo da so te yɛn kurow Ramot Gilead mu ana? Nanso yɛnyɛɛ ho hwee!”
Sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa shugabanninsa, “Ba ku san cewa Ramot Gileyad namu ne ba, duk da haka ba mu yi kome ba don mu sāke karɓanta daga sarkin Aram?”
4 Enti obisaa Yehosafat se, “Wobɛka me ho na yɛako atia Ramot Gilead ana?” Na Yehosafat buaa ɔhene Ahab se, “Adɛn? Ɛyɛ asɛm a ɛda ne kwan mu. Wo ne me yɛ anuanom, na mʼakofo yɛ wo de sɛ wobɛka asɛm a wopɛ akyerɛ wɔn. Mpo, mʼapɔnkɔ da wo da.”
Saboda haka ya tambayi Yehoshafat, ya ce, “Za ka tafi tare da ni don in yi yaƙi da Ramot Gileyad?” Yehoshafat ya amsa wa sarkin Isra’ila, ya ce, “Ni ma kamar ka ne, mutanena kuwa kamar mutanenka, dawakaina kamar dawakanka.”
5 Na Yehosafat ka kaa ho se, “Nea edi kan no, ma yemmisa Awurade hɔ afotu.”
Amma Yehoshafat ya ce wa sarkin Isra’ila, “Da farko mu nemi nufin Ubangiji.”
6 Enti ɔhene Ahab frɛɛ nʼadiyifo a wɔn dodow bɛyɛ ahannan no nyinaa, bisaa wɔn se, “Menkɔko ntia Ramot Gilead anaa mennkɔ?” Wɔn nyinaa buae se, “Kɔ so! Awurade bɛma woadi nkonim anuonyam so.”
Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya tattara annabawa, kamar ɗari huɗu, ya tambaye su, “In kai yaƙi a kan Ramot Gileyad, ko kada in kai?” Suka amsa, “Ka tafi, gama Ubangiji zai ba ka ita a hannunka.”
7 Nanso Yehosafat bisae se, “Enti Awurade diyifo biara nso nni ha? Anka mepɛ sɛ mibisa no saa asɛm koro no ara.”
Amma Yehoshafat ya yi tambaya, ya ce, “Babu wani annabin Ubangiji a nan da za mu tambaya?”
8 Ɔhene Ahab buae se, “Awurade diyifo baako da so wɔ ha, nanso metan no. Ɔnhyɛ nkɔm pa biara sɛ nkɔm bɔne na ɔhyɛ fa me ho. Ne din de Mikaia a ɔyɛ Imla babarima.” Na Yehosafat kae se, “Nkasa saa. Momma yentie asɛm a ɔwɔ ka.”
Sarkin Isra’ila ya amsa wa Yehoshafat, ya ce, “Akwai mutum guda har yanzu wanda ta wurinsa za mu iya nemi nufin Ubangiji, amma na ƙi jininsa domin bai taɓa yin annabci wani abu mai kyau game da ni ba, sai dai mummuna kullum. Shi ne Mikahiya ɗan Imla.” Yehoshafat ya ce, “Kada sarki ya ce haka.”
9 Enti Israelhene frɛɛ ne mpanyimfo no mu baako, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ka wo ho kɔfa Imla babarima Mikaia bra.”
Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya kira ɗaya daga cikin shugabanninsa ya ce, “Kawo Mikahiya ɗan Imla nan take.”
10 Israelhene Ahab ne Yudahene Yehosafat hyɛɛ wɔn ahemfo ntade, tenaa wɔn ahengua mu wɔ apongua a ɛbɛn Samaria kwan no ano. Saa bere no, na Ahab adiyifo no rehyɛ nkɔm wɔ wɔn anim.
Saye da rigunansu na sarauta, sarkin Isra’ila da Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda suna zama a kujerun sarautarsu a masussuka ta mashigin ƙofar Samariya, tare da dukan annabawa suna ta annabci a gabansu.
11 Na wɔn mu baako a ɔyɛ Kenaana babarima Sedekia de nnade yɛɛ mmɛn, na ɔdaa no adi se, “Sɛnea Awurade se ni: Mode saa mmɛn yi bɛwowɔ Aramfo yi ama wɔawuwu!”
Zedekiya ɗan Kena’ana kuwa ya yi ƙahonin ƙarfe ya kuma furta, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Da waɗannan za ka tunkuyi Arameyawa har su hallaka.’”
12 Adiyifo a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa penee so kae se, “Yiw, monkɔ Ramot-Gilead, na munkodi nkonim, efisɛ Awurade bɛma moadi nkonim.”
Dukan sauran annabawan suka yi annabci iri abu ɗaya. Suka ce, “Ka yaƙi Ramot Gileyad, ka kuma yi nasara, gama Ubangiji zai ba da ita cikin hannun sarki.”
13 Na ɔbɔfo a ɔkɔfaa Mikaia no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Tie, adiyifo no nyinaa hyɛ nkonimdi ho nkɔm ma ɔhene. Hwɛ sɛ wo ne wɔn adwene bɛyɛ baako, na wo nso, wobɛhyɛ nkonimdi ho nkɔm.”
Ɗan aikan da ya je yă kawo Mikahiya, ya ce masa, “Duba, sauran annabawa suna maganar nasara wa sarki, sai ka ce mutum guda. Bari maganarka tă yarda da tasu, ka kuma yi maganar alheri.”
14 Nanso Mikaia buae se, “Mmere dodow a Awurade te ase yi, nea Awurade aka akyerɛ me sɛ menka no, ɛno na mɛka.”
Amma Mikahiya ya ce, “Na rantse da Ubangiji mai rai, zan faɗa masa kawai abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa mini.”
15 Bere a Mikaia beduu ahemfi no, Ahab bisaa no se, “Mikaia, yɛnkɔko ntia Ramot-Gilead anaa yɛnnkɔ?” Na Mikaia buae se, “Monkɔ! Na Awurade bɛma ɔhene adi nkonim anuonyam so.”
Da suka kai, sai sarki ya tambaye shi, ya ce, “Mikahiya, mu kai yaƙi a kan Ramot Gileyad, ko kada mu kai?” Ya amsa ya ce, “Yaƙe ta, za ka kuwa yi nasara, gama Ubangiji zai ba da ita cikin hannun sarki.”
16 Ɔhene amma nʼano ansi, na obuaa no se, “Mpɛn ahe na menka nkyerɛ wo se, sɛ worekasa ama Awurade a, ka nokwasɛm?”
Sai sarki ya ce masa, “Sau nawa ne zan sa ka rantse cewa ba za ka faɗa mini kome ba sai dai gaskiya a cikin sunan Ubangiji?”
17 Na Mikaia ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Anisoadehu mu, mihuu sɛ Israel abɔ apete mmepɔw no so, te sɛ nguan a wonni ɔhwɛfo. Na Awurade kae se, ‘Wɔakum wɔn wura. Ma wɔnkɔ fie asomdwoe mu.’”
Sa’an nan Mikahiya ya amsa, “Na ga dukan Isra’ila a warwatse a kan tuddai kamar tumakin da ba su da makiyayi, kuma Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Waɗannan mutane ba su da maigida. Bari kowa yă tafi gida cikin salama.’”
18 Israelhene ka kyerɛɛ Yehosafat se, “Manka saa ankyerɛ wo ana? Da biara saa na ɔyɛ. Ɔnhyɛ nkɔm pa biara sɛ atoro nkɔm na ɔhyɛ fa me ho.”
Sai sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa Yehoshafat, “Ban faɗa maka cewa bai taɓa yin annabci wani abu mai kyau game da ni, sai mummuna kawai ba?”
19 Mikaia toaa so se, “Tie nea Awurade ka. Mihuu Awurade sɛ ɔte nʼahengua so a ne ɔsorofo asraafo nyinaa atwa ne ho ahyia wɔ ne nifa ne ne benkum so.”
Mikahiya ya ci gaba, “Saboda haka ka ji maganar Ubangiji. I, na ga Ubangiji zaune a kursiyinsa tare da dukan rundunar sama tsaye kewaye da shi a dama da hagunsa.
20 Na Awurade bisae se, “Hena na obetumi adaadaa Ahab, ama wakɔ ɔko atia Ramot Gilead, a ebetumi aba sɛ wobekum no wɔ hɔ?” Wosusuw nsɛm ahorow bebree ho wɔ hɔ,
Kuma Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Wa zai ruɗi Ahab zuwa yaƙi da Ramot Gileyad, yă kuma kai shi mutuwarsa a can?’ “Wani ya ce wannan, wani ya ce wancan.
21 kosii sɛ ne koraa no, honhom bi bɛnee Awurade kae se, “Metumi ayɛ!”
A ƙarshe, wani ruhu ya zo gaba, ya tsaya a gaban Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Zan ruɗe shi.’
22 Awurade bisae se, “Ɔkwan bɛn so na wobɛfa ayɛ eyi?” Na honhom no buae se, “Mɛkɔ akɔdaadaa Ahab adiyifo, ama wɔadi atoro.” Awurade kae se, “Kɔ so yɛ, na wubedi nkonim.
“Ubangiji ya yi tambaya ‘Ta wace hanya?’ Ya ce, “‘Zan tafi in zama ruhun ƙarya a bakunan dukan annabawansa.’ “Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Za ka yi nasara a ruɗinsa. Ka tafi, ka yi haka.’
23 “Enti woahu sɛ Awurade de nkontompo honhom ahyɛ wʼadiyifo no anom. Awurade adwene sɛ ɔde amanehunu bɛba wo so.”
“Saboda haka yanzu Ubangiji ya sa ruhun ƙarya a bakunan dukan annabawanka. Ubangiji ya zartar maka da masifa.”
24 Afei Kenaana babarima Sedekia kɔɔ Mikaia so, kɔbɔɔ nʼani so. Obisaa no se, “Da bɛn na Awurade honhom fii me mu bɛkasa kyerɛɛ wo?”
Sai Zedekiya ɗan Kena’ana ya hau ya mari Mikahiya a fuska. Ya yi tambaya, “A wace hanya ce ruhu daga Ubangiji ya bar ni ya yi maka magana?”
25 Na Mikaia buae se, “Ɛrenkyɛ biara, wubehu nokware no, bere a wubeguan akɔtetɛw kokoa mu dan bi mu.”
Mikahiya ya amsa, “Za ka gane a ranar da ka je ka ɓuya a ciki cikin ɗaki.”
26 Israelhene Ahab hyɛe se, “Monkyere Mikaia, na momfa no nkɔma Amon a ɔyɛ kurow no mu amrado, na momfa no nkɔ me babarima Yoas nkyɛn.
Sa’an nan sarkin Isra’ila ya umarta, “Ku kama Mikahiya, ku kai shi wurin Amon, shugaban birnin, da wurin Yowash ɗan sarki.
27 Monka saa asɛm a efi ɔhene nkyɛn yi nkyerɛ wɔn se, ‘Fa saa ɔbarima yi to afiase. Mommma no aduan biara sɛ brodo ne nsu, kosi sɛ mefi akono bɛba asomdwoe mu.’”
Ku ce ga abin da sarki ya ce, ‘Ku sa wannan mutum a kurkuku, kuma kada ku ba shi wani abu sai dai burodi da ruwa, sai na dawo lafiya.’”
28 Nanso Mikaia buae se, “Sɛ wosan ba asomdwoe mu a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, Awurade amfa me so ankasa.” Na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wogyinagyina hɔ, atwa ne ho ahyia no se, “Saa asɛm a maka yi, monhyɛ no nsow.”
Mikahiya ya furta, “Idan har ka dawo lafiya, to, Ubangiji bai yi magana ta wurina ba.” Ya kuma ƙara da cewa, “Ku lura da maganata, dukanku mutane!”
29 Na Israelhene ne Yudahene Yehosafat dii wɔn asraafo anim, kɔtow hyɛɛ Ramot-Gilead so.
Sai sarkin Isra’ila da Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda suka haura zuwa Ramot Gileyad.

Sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa Yehoshafat, “Zan ɓad da kama in shiga wurin yaƙi, amma ka sa kayan sarautarka.” Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya ɓad da kama, ya shiga cikin yaƙi.
31 Saa bere no, na Aramhene aka akyerɛ ne nteaseɛnamkafo aduasa abien no sɛ, “Monkɔtow nhyɛ Israelhene nko ara so!”
Sarkin Aram kuwa ya umarci shugabanni kekunan yaƙinsa talatin da biyu, ya ce, “Kada ku yaƙe kowa, ƙarami ko babba, sai dai sarkin Isra’ila.”
32 Enti bere a Aramhene nteaseɛnamkafo no huu Yehosafat sɛ ɔhyɛ nʼahentade no, wɔtaa no. Wɔteɛteɛɛ mu se, “Israelhene no ne no.” Nanso, bere a Yehosafat teɛɛ mu no,
