II Chronicles 18

Ary Josafata nanana harena sy voninahitra be; ary ny zananilahy dia nampanambadiny ny zanakavavin'i Ahaba.

Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honour in abundance, and joined affinity with Ahab.

Koa nony ela dia nidina nankany amin'i Ahaba tany Samaria izy. Ary Ahaba namono ondry aman'osy sy omby betsaka ho azy sy ho an'ny olona nanaraka azy, dia nitaona azy hiakatra ho any Ramota-gileada.

And after certain years he went down to Ahab to Samaria. And Ahab killed sheep and oxen for him in abundance, and for the people that he had with him, and persuaded him to go up with him to Ramoth–gilead.

Ary hoy Ahaba, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, tamin'i Josafata, mpanjakan'ny Joda: Mba hiaraka amiko ho any Ramota-gileada va ianao? Dia hoy izy taminy: Eny fa tahaka ny tenanao ihany aho, ka ny oloko dia olonao; koa hiaraka aminao ho any an-tafika izahay.

And Ahab king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, Wilt thou go with me to Ramoth–gilead? And he answered him, I am as thou art, and my people as thy people; and we will be with thee in the war.

Ary hoy Josafata tamin'ny mpanjakan'ny Isirady; Masìna ianao, anontanio aloha ny tenin'i Jehovah.

And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Enquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to day.

Ary ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely dia nanangona ny mpaminany efajato lahy ka nanao taminy hoe: Handeha hanafika an'i Ramota-gileada va isika, sa hijanona ihany aho ? Dia hoy ireo: Mandehana, fa hatolotr'Andriamanitra eo an-tananao izy, ry mpanjaka.

Therefore the king of Israel gathered together of prophets four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall we go to Ramoth–gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; for God will deliver it into the king's hand.

Ary hoy kosa Josafata: Moa tsy misy mpaminanin'i Jehovah koa va eto mba hanontaniantsika?

But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the LORD besides, that we might enquire of him?

Dia hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely tamin'i Josafata: Mbola misy lehilahy iray ihany ahazoantsika manontany amin'i Jehovah, saingy halako izy, satria tsy mbola naminany soa ho ahy izy, fa loza ihany mandrakariva; Mitaia, zanak'i Jimla, no anarany. Dia hoy Josafata: Aza dia manao izany, ry mpanjaka.

And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, by whom we may enquire of the LORD: but I hate him; for he never prophesied good unto me, but always evil: the same is Micaiah the son of Imla. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

Ary ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely niantso ny tandapa anankiray ka nanao taminy hoe: Alao faingana Mikaia, zanak'i Jimla.

And the king of Israel called for one of his officers, and said, Fetch quickly Micaiah the son of Imla.

Ary ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely sy Josafata, mpanjakan'ny Joda, samy nipetraka teo amin'ny seza fiandrianany avy teo amin'ny famoloana eo anoloan'ny vavahadin'i Samaria, sady samy efa niakanjo ny akanjony avy; ary ny mpaminany rehetra naminany teo anatrehany.

And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah sat either of them on his throne, clothed in their robes, and they sat in a void place at the entering in of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.

Ary Zedekia, zanak'i Kenana, dia nanao tandroby ka nanao hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Ireto no hanotoanao ny Syriana mandra-paharingany.

And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made him horns of iron, and said, Thus saith the LORD, With these thou shalt push Syria until they be consumed.

Ary ny mpaminany rehetra naminany toy izao koa hoe: Mandehana ho any Ramota-gileada, dia hambinina ianao; fa hotolotr'i Jehovah eo an-tananao izy, ry mpanjaka.

And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth–gilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver it into the hand of the king.

Ary ilay iraka izay nandeha naka an'i Mikaia niteny taminy hoe: Indro. fa efa iray teny avokoa izao ny mpaminany, ka samy milaza soa ho an'ny mpanjaka: masìna ianao, aoka re ny teninao mba ho tahaka ny an'ny anankiray amin'ireo, ka mba mitenena soa koa.

And the messenger that went to call Micaiah spake to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one assent; let thy word therefore, I pray thee, be like one of theirs, and speak thou good.

Dia hoy Mikaia: Raha velona koa Jehovah, izay lazain'Andriamanitro ihany no hambarako.

And Micaiah said, As the LORD liveth, even what my God saith, that will I speak.

Dia nankany amin'ny mpanjaka izy. Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Ry Mikaia, handeha hanafika an'i Ramota-gileada va isika, sa hijanona ihany aho? Ary izy namaly azy hoe: Mandehana, dia hambinina ianareo, fa hatolotra eo an-tananareo izy.

And when he was come to the king, the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth–gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand.

Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Impiry no hampianianako anao mba tsy hilaza na inona na inona amiko amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah afa-tsy izay marina ihany?

And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou say nothing but the truth to me in the name of the LORD?

Dia hoy Mikaia: Hitako fa indreny ny Isiraely rehetra niely teny an-tendrombohitra toy ny ondry tsy misy mpiandry, ary hoy Jehovah: Ireto efa tsy manan-tompo, ka aoka izy samy hody soa aman-tsara any an-tranony avy.

Then he said, I did see all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and the LORD said, These have no master; let them return therefore every man to his house in peace.

Dia hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely tamin'ny Josafata: Tsy efa voalazako taminao va fa tsy mba mety maminany soa ho ahy izy, fa loza ihany?

And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would not prophesy good unto me, but evil?

Ary hoy Mikaia: Henoy ary ny tenin'i Jehovah: Nahita an'i Jehovah nipetraka teo amin'ny seza fiandrianany aho, ary ireo maro be rehetra any an-danitra nitsangana teo amin'ny ankavanany sy teo amin'ny ankaviany.

Again he said, Therefore hear the word of the LORD; I saw the LORD sitting upon his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.

Ary hoy Jehovah: Iza no hitaona an'i Ahaba, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, handeha ho any Ramota-gileada ka ho lavo any? Ary ny anankiray niteny toy izao, ary ny anankiray kosa niteny toy izao.

And the LORD said, Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth–gilead? And one spake saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner.

Dia nandroso ny fanahy ka nitsangana teo anatrehan'i Jehovah ary nanao hoe: Izaho no hitaona azy. Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Amin'inona anefa?

Then there came out a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will entice him. And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith?

Dia hoy izy: Hivoaka aho ka ho tonga fanahy mandainga ao am-bavan'ny mpaminaniny rehetra. Dia hoy indray Jehovah: Ho voataonanao ihany izy, ka hahatanteraka ianao; mivoaka ary, ka ataovy izany.

And he said, I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the LORD said, Thou shalt entice him, and thou shalt also prevail: go out, and do even so.

Koa, indro, Jehovah efa nanisy fanahy mandainga ao am-bavan'ireto mpaminaninao ireto, ary Izy koa efa nilaza ny loza hanjo anao.

Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil against thee.

Fa Zedekia, zanak'i Kenana, nanatona, dia namely ny takolak'i Mikaia sady nanao hoe: Taiza no lalana nialan'ny Fanahin'i Jehovah tamiko hiteny aminao?

Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD from me to speak unto thee?

Dia hoy Mitaia: Indro, ho hitanao izany amin'ny andro hidiranao ao amin'ny efi-trano anatiny hierenao.

And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see on that day when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.

Dia hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely: Raiso Mikaia, ka ento miverina izy ho any amin'i Amona, komandin'ny tanana, sy ho any amin'i Joasy, zanaky ny mpanjaka,

Then the king of Israel said, Take ye Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;

ka lazao hoe: Izao no lazain'ny mpanjaka: Ataovy ao an-trano-maizina ilehity, ka fahano mofom-pahoriana sy ranom-pahoriana izy mandra-pahatongako soa aman-tsara.

And say, Thus saith the king, Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I return in peace.

Fa hoy Mikaia: Raha tahìny ho tafaverina soa aman-tsara ianao, dia tsy nampitenenin'i Jehovah aho tsy akory. Ary hoy koa izy: Samia mihaino izany, ry firenena rehetra.

And Micaiah said, If thou certainly return in peace, then hath not the LORD spoken by me. And he said, Hearken, all ye people.

Dia niatatra nankany Ramota-gileada ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely sy Josafata, mpanjakan'ny Joda.

So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth–gilead.

Ary hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely tamin'i Josafata: Hody olon-kafa aho ka hitsarapaka any anatin'ny ady, fa ianao kosa dia miakanjoa ny akanjonao ihany. Dia nody olon-kafa ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely ka nitsarapata tany anatin'ny ady.

And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle.

Fa ny mpanjakan'i Syria efa nandidy Ireo komandin'ny kalesiny nanao hoe: Aza miady na amin'ny kely na amin'ny lehibe, afa-tsy amin'ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely ihany.

Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small or great, save only with the king of Israel.

Ary nony nahita an'i Josafata ireo komandin'ny kalesy, dia hoy izy: Iny mihitsy no mpanjakan'ny Isiraely. Dia nohodidininy hasiany izy, ka dia niantsoantso Josafata, ary Jehovah namonjy azy; eny, Andriamanitra nampiala ireo teo aminy;

And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.

ary rehefa hitan'ireo komandin'ny kalesy fa tsy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely izy, dia niverina niala taminy ireo.

For it came to pass, that, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back again from pursuing him.

Ary nisy lehilahy anankiray nandefa zana-tsipìka kitoatoa ka nahavoa ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely teo anelenalen'ny fiarovan-tratrany sy ny eo ambaniny, ka dia hoy izy tamin'ny mpampandeha ny kalesiny: Ahodino, ka ento miala eto amin'ny mpiady aho, fa voa.

And a certain man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness: therefore he said to his chariot man, Turn thine hand, that thou mayest carry me out of the host; for I am wounded.

Ary nihamafy ny ady tamin'izany andro izany; ary ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely nihafy nitsangana teo amin'ny kalesiny tandrifin'ny Syriana mandra-paharivan'ny andro; fa nony efa hilentika ny masoandro, dia maty izy.

And the battle increased that day: howbeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the even: and about the time of the sun going down he died.
