1 Kings 22
1 They continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.
Kuom higni adek ne onge lweny e kind Israel gi Aram
2 In the third year, Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
To e higa mar adek Jehoshafat ruodh Juda nodhi neno ruodh Israel.
3 The king of Israel said to his servants, “You know that Ramoth Gilead is ours, and we do nothing, and do not take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?”
Ruodh Israel nosenyiso jodonge niya, “Donge ungʼeyo ni Ramoth Gilead en marwa to onge gima watimo mondo wakawe kuom ruodh Aram?”
4 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.”
Omiyo nopenjo Jehoshafat, “Ibiro dhi konya kedo gi jo-Ramoth Gilead?” Jehoshafat nodwoko ruodh Israel niya, “Wan joka ngʼato achiel, joga gin jogi, faresena gin fareseni.”
5 Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “Please inquire first for the LORD’s word.”
To Jehoshafat bende nowachone ruodh Israel niya, “Mokwongo penj ane Jehova Nyasaye wachni.”
6 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.”
Omiyo ruodh Israel nochoko jonabi kanyakla maromo ji mia angʼwen, mopenjogi niya, “Bende anyalo dhi kedo gi jo-Ramoth Gilead, koso kik adhi?” Negidwoke niya “Dhiyo nikech Jehova Nyasaye nochiwe e lwet ruoth.”
7 But Jehoshaphat said, “Is not there here a prophet of the LORD, that we may inquire of him?”
To Jehoshafat nopenjo niya, “Donge nitie janabi mar Jehova Nyasaye ka ma dwapenj wach?”
8 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him, for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil.” Jehoshaphat said, “Do not let the king say so.”
Ruodh Israel nodwoko Jehoshafat niya, “Pod nitie ngʼato achiel manyalo penjonwa Jehova Nyasaye wach, to ok adware nikech ok okor gimoro amora maber kuoma, to kinde duto mana gik maricho. Nyinge en Mikaya wuod Imla.” Jehoshafat nodwoko niya, “Ruoth ok onego iwach kamano.”
9 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, “Quickly get Micaiah the son of Imlah.”
Omiyo ruodh Israel noluongo achiel kuom jodonge mowachone niya, “Dhi piyo iom Mikaya wuod Imla.”
10 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.
Ruodh Israel kod Jehoshafat ruodh Juda noyudo orwako lepgi mag ruoth ka moro ka moro kuomgi obet e kom duongʼne e kar dino cham mantie e dhoranga Samaria, kendo ne gin kod jonabi duto mane koro e nyimgi.
11 Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made himself horns of iron, and said, “The LORD says, ‘With these you will push the Syrians, until they are consumed.’”
Koro Zedekia wuod Kenana noloso tunge mag nyinyo kolando niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye owacho, ‘Gi chumbegi ibiro chwowo jo-Aram nyaka itiekgi chuth.’”
12 All the prophets prophesied so, saying, “Go up to Ramoth Gilead and prosper; for the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
Jonabi mamoko duto bende ne koro wach mana machal kamano. Negiwacho niya, “Monj jo-Ramoth Gilead kendo ilogi nikech Jehova Nyasaye enokete e lwet ruoth.”
13 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.”
Jaote mane odhi luongo Mikaya nowachone niya “Jonabi duto osekoro wach achiel machalre, kagiwacho ni gima ber biro timore ni ruoth. In bende yie ikor wach maber kaka gisekorono.”
14 Micaiah said, “As the LORD lives, what the LORD says to me, that I will speak.”
To Mikaya nowacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni, anyalo mana nyise gima Jehova Nyasaye owachona.”
15 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 the LORD will deliver it into the hand of the king.”
Kane Mikaya ochopo, ruoth nopenje niya, “Bende wanyalo dhi mondo waked gi jo-Ramoth Gilead, koso kik wadhi?” Nodwoke niya, “Ked kodgi kendo iyud loch nimar Jehova Nyasaye osechiwe e lwet ruoth.”
16 The king said to him, “How many times do I have to adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the LORD’s name?”
Ruoth nowachone niya, “Nyaka karangʼo ma anaketi mondo ikwongʼrina gi nying Jehova Nyasaye ni iwacho adiera ma ok miriambo?”
17 He said, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. The LORD said, ‘These have no master. Let them each return to his house in peace.’”
Eka Mikaya nodwoke niya, “Ne aneno jo-Israel duto koke ewi gode mana kaka rombe maonge jakwath, kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni, ‘Jogi onge gi ruoth. Yie iwe ngʼato ka ngʼato odhi e dalane gi kwe.’”
18 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did not I tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?”
Ruodh Israel nowachone Jehoshafat niya, “Donge nawachoni ni ok okorna gik mabeyo, to okoro mana gik maricho?”
19 Micaiah said, “Therefore hear the LORD’s word. I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left.
Mikaya nodhi nyime kawacho niya, “Kuom mano winj wach Jehova Nyasaye: Naneno Jehova Nyasaye kobet e kom duongʼne gi jopolo duto kochungʼ molwore, e bade korachwich kendo e bade koracham.
20 The LORD said, ‘Who will entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?’ One said one thing, and another said another.
Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni, ‘En ngʼa mabiro hoyo Ahab mondo oked gi jo-Ramoth Gilead kendo onege kuno?’ “To ngʼato ka ngʼato nochiwo pache.
21 A spirit came out and stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’
Mogik, roho marach nobiro mochungʼ e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mowacho ni, ‘Abiro hoye.’
22 The LORD 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.’
“Jehova Nyasaye nopenje niya, ‘Ere kaka ibiro hoye?’ “Nodwoke niya, ‘Abiro dhi mondo abed roho mar miriambo e dho jonabi mage duto.’ “Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, ‘Dhiyo kendo itim kamano nikech in ema ibiro hoye mi iloye.’
23 Now therefore, behold, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the LORD has spoken evil concerning you.”
“Omiyo koro sani Jehova Nyasaye oseketo roho mar miriambo e dho jonabigi duto. Jehova Nyasaye osengʼadoni buch masira.”
24 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, “Which way did the LORD’s Spirit go from me to speak to you?”
Eka Zedekia wuod Kenana noa malo mopamo lemb Mikaya. Nopenje niya, “En yo mane ma Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye noluwo kobiro wuoyo kodi?”
25 Micaiah said, “Behold, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to hide yourself.”
Mikaya nodwoke niya, “Ibiro fwenyo chiengʼ ma iniring kidhi pondo e ot maiye.”
26 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.
Ruodh Israel nogolo chik niya, “Kawuru Mikaya kendo utere ir Amon jatend dala maduongʼ kendo ir Joash wuod ruoth,
27 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.”’”
kendo uwachne ni, ‘Gima ruoth wacho ema: Ket ngʼatni e od twech kendo kik imiye gimoro amora makmana makati kod pi nyaka aduogi kangima.’”
28 Micaiah said, “If you return at all in peace, the LORD has not spoken by me.” He said, “Listen, all you people!”
Mikaya nowachone niya, “Kidwogo kingima, to kara ok asewuoyo gi dho Jehova Nyasaye.” Bangʼe nomedo wacho niya, “Winjuru wechena, un ji duto!”
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
Omiyo ruodh Israel gi Jehoshafat ruodh Juda nodhi Ramoth Gilead.
30 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.
Ruodh Israel nowachone Jehoshafat niya, “Abiro rwako lewni moko ka wadhi e lweny mondo kik gifwenya, in to rwak arwaka lepi mag ruoth.” Omiyo ruodh Israel norwako lewni ma ok nyal fwenyego kendo nodhi e lweny.
31 Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, “Do not fight with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.”
Ruodh jo-Aram nogolo chik ne jotende piero adek gariyo mariembo geche niya, “Kik uked gi ngʼato angʼata bed ni otin kata oduongʼ makmana ruodh Israel.”
32 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.
Kane jotelo mariembo geche lweny noneno Jehoshafat negiwacho e chunygi niya, “Adier ma en ruodh Israel.” Omiyo negilokore mondo giked kode, to kane Jehoshafat oywak,
33 When the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
jotelo mariembo geche lweny noneno ni ok en ruodh Israel mi negiweyo lawe.
34 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.”
To ngʼat moro noywayo atungʼ mare modiro asere ma nochwowo ruodh Israel e kind law lweny mane orwako. Ruoth nonyiso jariemb gache niya, “Lok garini mondo igola ka, nimar ahinyora marach.”
35 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.
Odiechiengʼno duto lweny nomedo bedo mager kendo noten ruoth e gache komanyore gi jo-Aram. Remo mane chwer kawuok kama nohinyore nopongʼo i gari, kendo godhiambo notho.
36 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!”
Kane ochopo podho chiengʼ ywak nowinjore e kind jolweny niya, ngʼato ka ngʼato odog e gwengʼ-gi kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato odog e pinygi.
37 So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
Kamano ruoth notho kendo nokele Samaria moike kanyo.
38 They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood where the prostitutes washed themselves, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke.
Ne gilwoko garino e yawo moro Samaria (kama ochode lwokoree), kendo guogi nonangʼo rembe, mana kaka wach Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho.
39 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, are not they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Timbe mamoko mag loch Ahab kaachiel gi gik moko duto mane otimo, gi dala ruoth maduongʼ mane ogero mobawo gi lak liech kod mier mane ochielo gi ohinga, donge ondikgi e kitap rapar mar ruodhi Israel?
40 So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
Ahab noyweyo gi kwerene, kendo Ahazia wuode nokawo lochne kaka ruoth.
41 Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
Jehoshafat wuod Asa nodoko ruodh Juda e higa mar angʼwen mar Ahab ruodh Israel.
42 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.
Jehoshafat ne ja-higni piero adek gabich kane obedo ruoth kendo norito piny kodak Jerusalem kuom higni piero adek gabich. Min mare ne nyinge Azuba nyar Shilhi.
43 He walked in all the way of Asa his father. He did not turn away from it, doing that which was right in the LORD’s eyes. However, the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
E gik moko duto noluwo yore Asa wuon mare kendo ne ok oweyogi, nimar notimo gima kare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye. To kata kamano kuonde motingʼore gi malo mag lemo ne ok omuki kendo ji nodhi nyime mana gi chiwo misengini kendo wangʼo ubani.
44 Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
Jehoshafat bende ne nigi kwe gi ruodh Israel.
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he showed, and how he fought, are not they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Gik mamoko manotimore ndalo loch Jehoshafat gi gik mane otimo kaachiel gi humbe lwenjene, donge ondikgi e kitepe rapar mar ruodhi Juda?
46 The remnant of the sodomites, that remained in the days of his father Asa, he put away out of the land.
Noriembo jochode machwo mane ni kuonde motingʼore mag lemo mane otony e ndalo mag loch wuon-gi Asa.
47 There was no king in Edom. A deputy ruled.
E kindeno ne onge ruoth e piny Edom, jalupne ema ne ni e loch.
48 Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold, but they did not go, for the ships wrecked at Ezion Geber.
Koro Jehoshafat nohondho yiedhi mag ohala mondo odhi Ofir oom dhahabu to kata kamano ne ok gikwangʼ nikech ne gikethore kama iluongo ni Ezion Geber.
49 Then Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants go with your servants in the ships.” But Jehoshaphat would not.
E kindeno Ahazia wuod Ahab nowacho ni Jehoshafat niya, “Yie iwe joga okwangʼ gi jogi, to Jehoshafat nodagi.”
50 Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in his father David’s city. Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
Jehoshafat notho kaka kwerene kendo noyike but kwerene e dala maduongʼ mar Daudi wuon-gi. Kendo Jehoram wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
51 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.
Ahazia wuod Ahab nobedo ruodh Israel e Samaria e higa mar apar gabiriyo mar loch Jehoshafat ruodh Juda, kendo nobedo ruodh Israel higni ariyo.
52 He did that which was evil in the LORD’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.
Notimo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye nikech nowuotho e yore mag wuon-gi gi min-gi kendo e yore mag Jeroboam wuod Nebat mane omiyo Israel otimo richo.
53 He served Baal and worshiped him, and provoked the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger in all the ways that his father had done so.
Notiyo ni Baal kendo nolame mi nomiyo Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, obedo gi mirima mana kaka wuon-gi nosetimo.
