1 Kings 22
1 Fún ọdún mẹ́ta kò sì sí ogun láàrín Aramu àti Israẹli.
And there continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.
2 Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún kẹta, Jehoṣafati ọba Juda sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ láti rí ọba Israẹli.
But it came to pass, in the third year, that Jehoshaphat king of Judah went down unto the king of Israel.
3 Ọba Israẹli sì ti wí fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ẹ̀yin mọ̀ pé ti wa ni Ramoti Gileadi, àwa sì dákẹ́ síbẹ̀, a kò sì gbà á padà lọ́wọ́ ọba Aramu?”
And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that, ours, is Ramoth-gilead, —yet, we, are too idle to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?
4 Ó sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ Jehoṣafati pé, “Ṣé ìwọ yóò bá mi lọ láti lọ bá Ramoti Gileadi jà?” Jehoṣafati sì dá ọba Israẹli lóhùn pé, “Èmi bí ìwọ, ènìyàn mi bí ènìyàn rẹ, ẹṣin mi bí ẹṣin rẹ.”
And he said unto Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to make war upon Ramoth-gilead?
5 Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoṣafati sì tún wí fún ọba Israẹli pé, “Kọ́kọ́ béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa.”
And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, I am as thou art, my people are us thy people, my horses as thy horses.
6 Nígbà náà ni ọba Israẹli kó àwọn wòlíì jọ, bí irinwó ọkùnrin. Ó sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Ṣé kí n lọ sí Ramoti Gileadi lọ jagun, tàbí kí èmi kí ó jọ̀wọ́ rẹ̀?” Wọ́n sì dáhùn pé, “Lọ, nítorí tí Olúwa yóò fi lé ọba lọ́wọ́.”
Then said Jehoshaphat unto the king of Israel, —Seek, I pray thee, at once, the word of Yahweh. So the king of Israel gathered together the prophets, about four hundred men, and said unto them—Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead, to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said—Go up, that the Lord may deliver it into the hand of the king.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoṣafati béèrè pé, “Ǹjẹ́ wòlíì Olúwa kan kò sí níhìn-ín, tí àwa ìbá béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀?”
Then said Jehoshaphat, Is there not here a prophet of Yahweh, besides, —that we may seek, from him?
8 Ọba Israẹli dá Jehoṣafati lóhùn pé, “Ọkùnrin kan ṣì wà, lọ́dọ̀ ẹni tí àwa lè béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n mo kórìíra rẹ̀ nítorí kì í sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ rere kan nípa mi, bí kò ṣe ibi. Mikaiah ọmọ Imla ni.” Jehoṣafati sì wí pé, “Kí ọba má ṣe sọ bẹ́ẹ̀.”
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Besides, is a certain man, by whom we might seek Yahweh, but, I, hate him, for he is never moved to prophesy concerning me anything good, only evil, Micaiah, son of Imlah. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
9 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Israẹli sì pe ìránṣẹ́ kan, ó sì wí pé, “Lọ yára mú Mikaiah, ọmọ Imla wá.”
Then the king of Israel called a certain courtier, —and said, Hasten Micaiah son of Imlah.
10 Ọba Israẹli àti Jehoṣafati ọba Juda jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ wọn, wọ́n wọ aṣọ ìgúnwà wọn ní ìta ẹnu ibodè Samaria, gbogbo àwọn wòlíì náà sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ níwájú wọn.
Now, the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, were sitting—each man upon his throne, having put on robes, in a level place, at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, —and, all the prophets, were being moved to prophesy before them;
11 Sedekiah ọmọ Kenaana sì ṣe ìwo irin fún ara rẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Wọ̀nyí ni ìwọ yóò fi kan àwọn ará Aramu títí ìwọ yóò fi run wọ́n.’”
when Zedekiah son of Chenaanah made himself horns of iron, —and said—Thus, saith Yahweh, —With these, shalt thou push down the Syrians, until thou hast consumed them.
12 Gbogbo àwọn wòlíì tókù sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ ohun kan náà wí pé, “Kọlu Ramoti Gileadi, kí o sì ṣẹ́gun.” Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Nítorí tí Olúwa yóò fi lé ọba lọ́wọ́.”
And, all the prophets, were being moved to prophesy, in like manner, saying, —Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and thou shalt prosper, and Yahweh will deliver it, into the hand of the king.
13 Ìránṣẹ́ tí ó lọ pe Mikaiah wí fún un pé, “Wò ó, ẹnu kan náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn wòlíì fi jẹ́ rere fún ọba. Jẹ́ kí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ bá ti àwọn tókù mu, kí o sì sọ rere.”
Now, the messenger who went to call Micaiah, spake unto him, saying, Behold, I pray thee, the words of the prophets, with one mouth, are good, as touching the king, let thy word, I pray thee, be as the word of one of them, so wilt thou speak that which is good.
14 Ṣùgbọ́n Mikaiah wí pé, “Bí Olúwa ti wà, ohun tí Olúwa bá sọ fún mi ni èmi yóò sọ fún un.”
And Micaiah said, —By the life of Yahweh, what Yahweh saith unto me, that, will I, speak.
15 Nígbà tí ó sì dé, ọba sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Mikaiah, ṣé kí a lọ bá Ramoti Gileadi jagun, tàbí kí a jọ̀wọ́ rẹ̀?” Ó sì dáhùn wí pé, “Lọ, kí o sì ṣẹ́gun, nítorí Olúwa yóò fi lé ọba lọ́wọ́.”
So he came unto the king, and the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we forbear? And he said unto him—Go up and prosper, and Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king.
16 Ọba sì wí fún un pé, “Ìgbà mélòó ni èmi yóò fi ọ bú pé kí o má ṣe sọ ohun kan fún mi bí kò ṣe òtítọ́ ní orúkọ Olúwa?”
And the king said unto him, How many times must, I, adjure thee, —that thou speak unto me nothing but truth, in the name of Yahweh?
17 Mikaiah sì dáhùn pé, “Mo rí gbogbo Israẹli túká kiri lórí àwọn òkè bí àgùntàn tí kò ní olùṣọ́, Olúwa sì wí pé, ‘Àwọn wọ̀nyí kò ní olúwa. Jẹ́ kí olúkúlùkù padà sí ilé rẹ̀ ní àlàáfíà.’”
And he said—I saw all Israel, scattered among the mountains, like sheep that have no shepherd, —so Yahweh said, These have, no masters, let them return every man unto his own house, in peace.
18 Ọba Israẹli sì wí fún Jehoṣafati pé, “Ǹjẹ́ èmi kò sọ fún ọ pé kò sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ìre kan sí mi rí bí kò ṣe ibi?”
Then said the king of Israel, unto Jehoshaphat, —Did I not say unto thee, He will not be moved to prophesy concerning me anything good, only calamity.
19 Mikaiah sì tún wí pé, “Nítorí náà gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa. Mo rí Olúwa jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú gbogbo ogun ọ̀run dúró ní apá ọ̀tún àti ní apá òsì rẹ̀.
Then he said, Therefore, hear thou the word of Yahweh, —I saw Yahweh, sitting upon his throne, and all the host of the heavens, standing by him, on his right hand, and on his left.
20 Olúwa sì wí pé, ‘Ta ni yóò tan Ahabu láti kọlu Ramoti Gileadi? Kí ó sì tọ ikú rẹ̀ lọ níbẹ̀?’ “Ẹnìkan wí báyìí, ẹlòmíràn sì sọ òmíràn.
And Yahweh said, Who will persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall, at Ramoth-gilead? And, one, said in this manner, and, another, said in that manner.
21 Ẹ̀mí kan sì jáde wá, ó sì dúró níwájú Olúwa, ó sì wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò tàn án.’
Then came forth a spirit, and stood before Yahweh, and said—I, will persuade him.
22 “Olúwa sì béèrè pé, ‘Báwo?’ “Ó sì wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò jáde lọ, èmi yóò sì di ẹ̀mí èké ní ẹnu gbogbo àwọn wòlíì rẹ̀.’ “Olúwa sì wí pé, ‘Ìwọ yóò tàn án, ìwọ yóò sì borí, jáde lọ, kí o sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.’
And Yahweh said unto him—Wherewith? And he said—I will go forth, and become a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets, —So he said, —Thou mayest persuade, yea and prevail, go forth, and do so.
23 “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa ti fi ẹ̀mí èké sí ẹnu gbogbo àwọn wòlíì rẹ wọ̀nyí. Olúwa sì ti sọ ibi sí ọ.”
Now, therefore, lo! Yahweh hath suffered a spirit of falsehood to be put into the mouth of all these thy prophets. But, Yahweh himself, hath spoken concerning thee, calamity.
24 Nígbà náà ni Sedekiah ọmọ Kenaana sì dìde, ó sì gbá Mikaiah lójú, ó sì wí pé, “Ọ̀nà wo ni ẹ̀mí Olúwa gbà lọ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi láti bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀?”
Then drew near Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, and smote Micaiah on the cheek, —and said—Where then passed the Spirit of Yahweh, from me, to speak unto thee?
25 Mikaiah sì dáhùn pé, “Ìwọ yóò ṣe ìwádìí ní ọjọ́ tí ìwọ yóò sá pamọ́ sínú ìyẹ̀wù.”
Then said Micaiah, Lo! thou art about to see, on that day, —when thou enterest a chamber within a chamber, to hide thyself.
26 Ọba Israẹli sì pàṣẹ pé, “Ẹ mú Mikaiah, kí ẹ sì mú un padà sọ́dọ̀ Amoni, olórí ìlú, àti sọ́dọ̀ Joaṣi ọmọ ọba
And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah, and carry him back unto Amon captain of the city, —and unto Joash son of the king;
27 kí ẹ sì wí pé, ‘Báyìí ni ọba wí: Ẹ fi eléyìí sínú túbú, kí ẹ sì fi oúnjẹ ìpọ́njú àti omi ìpọ́njú bọ́ ọ, títí èmi yóò fi padà bọ̀ ní àlàáfíà.’”
and thou shalt say—Thus, saith the king, Put this man into the prison, —and let him eat the bread of oppression, with the water of oppression, until I enter in peace.
28 Mikaiah sì wí pé, “Bí ìwọ bá padà bọ̀ ní àlàáfíà, Olúwa kò ti ipa mi sọ̀rọ̀.” Ó sì tún wí pé, “Ẹ kíyèsi ọ̀rọ̀ mi, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn gbogbo!”
Then said Micaiah, If thou, return, in peace, Yahweh hath not spoken by me. And he said, Hear, ye peoples, all of you!
29 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Israẹli àti Jehoṣafati ọba Juda gòkè lọ sí Ramoti Gileadi.
So the king of Israel went up, with Jehoshaphat king of Judah, unto Ramoth-gilead.
30 Ọba Israẹli sì wí fún Jehoṣafati pé, “Èmi yóò pa aṣọ dà, èmi yóò sì lọ sí ojú ìjà, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ yóò wọ aṣọ ìgúnwà rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba Israẹli pa aṣọ dà, ó sì lọ sí ojú ìjà.
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat—I am about to disguise myself, and enter into the battle, thou, therefore, put on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself, and entered into the battle.
31 Ọba Aramu ti pàṣẹ fún àwọn olórí kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀ méjìlélọ́gbọ̀n wí pé, “Ẹ má ṣe bá ẹnìkankan jà, ẹni kékeré tàbí ẹni ńlá, bí kò ṣe ọba Israẹli nìkan.”
Now, the king of Syria, had commanded the captains of chariots which he had, thirty and two, saying, Ye shall not fight with small or great, —save with the king of Israel alone.
32 Nígbà tí àwọn olórí kẹ̀kẹ́ sì rí Jehoṣafati, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Dájúdájú ọba Israẹli ni èyí.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n yípadà láti bá a jà, ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí Jehoṣafati sì kígbe sókè,
And it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw Jehoshaphat, that, they, said: Surely it is, the king of Israel! But, when they turned aside against him to fight, Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 àwọn olórí kẹ̀kẹ́ sì rí i pé kì í ṣe ọba Israẹli, wọ́n sì padà kúrò lẹ́yìn rẹ̀.
And it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw that it was, not the king of Israel, that they turned back, from pursuing him.
34 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹnìkan sì fa ọrun rẹ̀ láìròtẹ́lẹ̀, ó sì ta ọba Israẹli láàrín ìpàdé ẹ̀wù irin. Ọba Israẹli sì wí fún olùtọ́jú kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Yí ọwọ́ rẹ dà, kí o sì mú mi jáde kúrò nínú ogun. Èmi ti gbọgbẹ́.”
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 his charioteer—Turn thy hand, and convey me out of the host, for I am sore wounded.
35 Ogun náà sì le ní ọjọ́ náà, a sì dá ọba dúró nínú kẹ̀kẹ́ kọjú sí àwọn ará Aramu. Ẹ̀jẹ̀ sì sàn jáde láti inú ọgbẹ́ rẹ̀ sí àárín kẹ̀kẹ́ náà, ó sì kú ní àṣálẹ́.
But the battle increased that day, and, the king, was propped up in the chariot, before the Syrians, —and died in the evening, and so the blood of the wound ran out into the hollow of the chariot.
36 A sì kéde la ibùdó já ní àkókò ìwọ̀-oòrùn wí pé, “Olúkúlùkù sí ìlú rẹ̀ àti olúkúlùkù sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀!”
And a loud cry went through the host, at the going in of the sun, saying—Every man to his own city! and every man to his own land!
37 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba kú, a sì gbé e wá sí Samaria, wọ́n sì sin ín ní Samaria.
So the king died, and was brought into Samaria, —and they buried the king, in Samaria.
38 Wọ́n sì wẹ kẹ̀kẹ́ náà ní adágún Samaria, àwọn ajá sì lá ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀, àwọn àgbèrè sì wẹ ara wọn nínú rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ti sọ.
And, when the chariot was washed out at the pool of Samaria, the dogs lapped up his blood, also, the harlots, bathed [there], —according to the word of Yahweh which he had spoken.
39 Ní ti ìyókù ìṣe Ahabu, àti gbogbo èyí tí ó ṣe, àti ilé eyín erin tí ó kọ́, àti gbogbo ìlú tí ó tẹ̀dó, a kò ha kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ọ̀rọ̀ ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Israẹli?
Now, the rest of the story of Ahab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he built, and all the cities that he built, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
40 Ahabu sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀. Ahasiah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
So Ahab slept with his fathers, —and, Ahaziah his son, reigned, in his stead.
41 Jehoṣafati ọmọ Asa, sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní jẹ ọba lórí Juda ní ọdún kẹrin Ahabu ọba Israẹli.
Now, Jehoshaphat son of Asa, began to reign over Judah, —in the fourth year of Ahab, king of Israel.
42 Jehoṣafati sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún márùndínlógójì nígbà tí ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ń jẹ ọba ní ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n ní Jerusalẹmu. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ ni Asuba ọmọbìnrin Silihi.
Jehoshaphat, was thirty-five years old when he began to reign, and, twenty-five years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.
43 Ó sì rìn nínú gbogbo ọ̀nà Asa baba rẹ̀, kò sì yípadà kúrò nínú rẹ̀; ó sì ṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ ní ojú Olúwa. Kìkì àwọn ibi gíga ni a kò mú kúrò, àwọn ènìyàn sì ń rú ẹbọ, wọ́n sì ń sun tùràrí níbẹ̀.
And he walked in all the way of Asa his father, he turned not aside therefrom, —doing that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh: nevertheless, the high places, were not taken away, —still were the people offering sacrifices and burning incense in the high places.
44 Jehoṣafati sì wà ní àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú ọba Israẹli.
And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
45 Ní ti ìyókù ìṣe Jehoṣafati àti ìṣe agbára rẹ̀ tí ó ṣe, àti bí ó ti jagun sí, a kò ha kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ọ̀rọ̀ ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Juda?
Now, the rest of the story of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he shewed, and how he warred, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
46 Ó pa ìyókù àwọn ọkùnrin alágbèrè ojúbọ òrìṣà ní ọjọ́ Asa baba rẹ̀ run kúrò ní ilẹ̀ náà.
Moreover, the rest of the male devotees who remained in the days of Asa his father, he consumed out of the land.
47 Nígbà náà kò sí ọba ní Edomu; adelé kan ni ọba.
And, king, was there none in Edom, a prefect, was king.
48 Jehoṣafati kan ọkọ̀ Tarṣiṣi láti lọ sí Ofiri fún wúrà, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò lọ, nítorí àwọn ọkọ̀ náà fọ́ ní Esioni-Geberi.
Jehoshaphat, made ships of Tarshish, to go to Ophir, for gold; but they went not, —for ships had been broken to pieces in Ezion-geber.
49 Ní ìgbà náà Ahasiah ọmọ Ahabu wí fún Jehoṣafati pé, “Jẹ́ kí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi bá àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ lọ nínú ọkọ̀,” ṣùgbọ́n Jehoṣafati kọ̀.
Then, said Ahaziah son of Ahab, unto Jehoshaphat, Let, my servants, go with, thy servants, in the ships, —but Jehoshaphat did not consent.
50 Nígbà náà ni Jehoṣafati sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀, a sì sin ín pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀ ní ìlú Dafidi, baba rẹ. Jehoramu ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
So Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers, in the city of David his father, —and, Jehoram his son, reigned, in his stead.
51 Ahasiah ọmọ Ahabu bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli ní Samaria ní ọdún kẹtàdínlógún Jehoṣafati ọba Juda, ó sì jẹ ọba ní ọdún méjì lórí Israẹli.
Ahaziah son of Ahab, began to reign over Israel, in Samaria, in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, —and reigned over Israel, two years.
52 Ó sì ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa, nítorí tí ó rìn ní ọ̀nà baba rẹ̀, àti ní ọ̀nà ìyá rẹ̀, àti ní ọ̀nà Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, tí ó mú Israẹli dẹ́ṣẹ̀.
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and went in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who caused, Israel, to sin.
53 Ó sì sin Baali, ó sì ń bọ Baali, ó sì mú Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli bínú, gẹ́gẹ́ bí i baba rẹ̀ ti ṣe.
Yea he served Baal, and bowed down to him, —and provoked to anger Yahweh, God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
