1 Kings 22
1 And they continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.
Transierunt igitur tres anni absque bello inter Syriam et Israel.
2 And it came to pass in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
In anno autem tertio, descendit Iosaphat rex Iuda ad regem Israel.
3 And the king of Israel said to his servants, Know ye that Ramoth in Gilead [is] ours, and we [are] still, [and] take it not out of the hand of the king of Syria?
(Dixitque rex Israel ad servos suos: Ignoratis quod nostra sit Ramoth Galaad, et negligimus tollere eam de manu regis Syriae?)
4 And he said to Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to battle to Ramoth-gilead? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I [am] as thou [art], my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses.
Et ait ad Iosaphat: Veniesne mecum ad praeliandum in Ramoth Galaad?
5 And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Inquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to-day.
Dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israel: Sicut ego sum, ita et tu: populus meus, et populus tuus unum sunt: et equites mei, equites tui. Dixitque Iosaphat ad regem Israel: Quaere, oro te, hodie sermonem Domini.
6 Then the king of Israel assembled the prophets, about four hundred men, and said to them, Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; for the LORD will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
Congregavit ergo rex Israel prophetas, quadringentos circiter viros, et ait ad eos: Ire debeo in Ramoth Galaad ad bellandum, an quiescere? Qui responderunt: Ascende, et dabit eam Dominus in manu regis.
7 And Jehoshaphat said, [Is there] not here a prophet of the LORD besides, that we may inquire of him?
Dixit autem Iosaphat: Non est hic propheta Domini quispiam, ut interrogemus per eum?
8 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, [There is] yet one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may inquire of the LORD: but I hate him; for he doth not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
Et ait rex Israel ad Iosaphat: Remansit vir unus, per quem possumus interrogare Dominum: sed ego odi eum, quia non prophetat mihi bonum, sed malum, Michaeas filius Iemla. Cui Iosaphat ait: Ne loquaris ita rex.
9 Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, Hasten [hither] Micaiah the son of Imlah.
Vocavit ergo rex Israel eunuchum quendam, et dixit ei: Festina adducere Michaeam filium Iemla.
10 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah sat each on his throne, having put on their robes, in a void place in the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.
Rex autem Israel, et Iosaphat rex Iuda sedebant unusquisque in solio suo vestiti cultu regio, in area iuxta ostium portae Samariae, et universi prophetae prophetabant in conspectu eorum.
11 And Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron: and he said, Thus saith the LORD, With these shalt thou push the Syrians, until thou hast consumed them.
Fecit quoque sibi Sedecias filius Chanaana cornua ferrea, et ait: Haec dicit Dominus: His ventilabis Syriam, donec deleas eam.
12 And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper: for the LORD will deliver [it] into the king's hand.
Omnesque prophetae similiter prophetabant, dicentes: Ascende in Ramoth Galaad, et vade prospere, et tradet Dominus in manus regis.
13 And the messenger that went to call Micaiah, spoke to him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets [declare] good to the king with one mouth: let thy word, I pray thee, be like the word of one of them, and speak [that which is] good.
Nuncius vero, qui ierat ut vocaret Michaeam, locutus est ad eum, dicens: Ecce sermones prophetarum ore uno regi bona praedicunt: sit ergo sermo tuus similis eorum, et loquere bona.
14 And Micaiah said, [As] the LORD liveth, what the LORD saith to me, that will I speak.
Cui Michaeas ait: Vivit Dominus, quia quodcumque dixerit mihi Dominus, hoc loquar.
15 So he came to the king. And the king said to him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we forbear? And he answered him, Go, and prosper: for the LORD will deliver [it] into the hand of the king.
Venit itaque ad regem, et ait illi rex: Michaea, ire debemus in Ramoth Galaad ad praeliandum, an cessare? Cui ille respondit: Ascende, et vade prospere, et tradet eum Dominus in manus regis.
16 And the king said to him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou tell me nothing but [that which is] true in the name of the LORD?
Dixit autem rex ad eum: Iterum atque iterum adiuro te, ut non loquaris mihi nisi quod verum est, in nomine Domini.
17 And he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, as sheep that have not a shepherd: and the LORD said, These have no master: let them return every man to his house in peace.
Et ille ait: Vidi cunctum Israel dispersum in montibus, quasi oves non habentes pastorem. et ait Dominus: Non habent isti dominum: revertatur unusquisque in domum suam in pace.
18 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would prophesy no good concerning me, but evil?
(Dixit ergo rex Israel ad Iosaphat: Numquid non dixi tibi, quia non prophetat mihi bonum, sed semper malum?)
19 And he said, Hear thou therefore the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left.
Ille vero addens, ait: Propterea audi sermonem Domini: Vidi Dominum sedentem super solium suum, et omnem exercitum caeli assistentem ei a dextris et a sinistris:
20 And the LORD said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead? And one said in this manner, and another said in that manner.
et ait Dominus: Quis decipiet Achab regem Israel, ut ascendat, et cadat in Ramoth Galaad? Et dixit unus verba huiuscemodi, et alius aliter.
21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will persuade him.
Egressus est autem spiritus, et stetit coram Domino, et ait: Ego decipiam illum. Cui locutus est Dominus: In quo?
22 And the LORD said to him, With what? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets? And he said, Thou shalt persuade [him], and prevail also: go forth, and do so.
Et ille ait: Egrediar, et ero spiritus mendax in ore omnium prophetarum eius. Et dixit Dominus: Decipies, et praevalebis: egredere, et fac ita.
23 Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil concerning thee.
Nunc igitur ecce dedit Dominus spiritum mendacii in ore omnium prophetarum tuorum, qui hic sunt, et Dominus locutus est contra te malum.
24 But Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near, and smote Micaiah on the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD from me to speak to thee?
Accessit autem Sedecias filius Chanaana, et percussit Michaeam in maxillam, et dixit: Me ne ergo dimisit Spiritus Domini, et locutus est tibi?
25 And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see in that day, when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.
Et ait Michaeas: Visurus es in die illa, quando ingredieris cubiculum, intra cubiculum ut abscondaris.
26 And 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;
Et ait rex Israel: Tollite Michaeam, et maneat apud Amon principem civitatis, et apud Ioas filium Amelech,
27 And say, Thus saith the king, Put this [man] in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction, and with water of affliction, until I come in peace.
et dicite eis: Haec dicit rex: Mittite virum istum in carcerem, et sustentate eum pane tribulationis, et aqua angustiae, donec revertar in pace.
28 And Micaiah said, If thou shalt return at all in peace, the LORD hath not spoken by me. And he said, Hearken, O people, every one of you.
Dixitque Michaeas: Si reversus fueris in pace, non est locutus in me Dominus. Et ait: Audite populi omnes.
29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
Ascendit itaque rex Israel, et Iosaphat rex Iuda in Ramoth Galaad.
30 And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and enter into the battle; but put thou on thy robes. And the king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
Dixit itaque rex Israel ad Iosaphat: Sume arma, et ingredere praelium, et induere vestibus tuis. porro rex Israel mutavit habitum suum, et ingressus est bellum.
31 But the king of Syria commanded his thirty and two captains that had rule over his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king of Israel.
Rex autem Syriae praeceperat principibus curruum triginta duobus, dicens: Non pugnabitis contra minorem, et maiorem quempiam, nisi contra regem Israel, solum.
32 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, Surely it [is] the king of Israel. And they turned aside to fight against him: and Jehoshaphat cried out.
Cum ergo vidissent principes curruum Iosaphat, suspicati sunt quod ipse esset rex Israel, et impetu facto pugnabant contra eum: et exclamavit Iosaphat.
33 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots perceived that it [was] not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
Intellexeruntque principes curruum quod non esset rex Israel, et cessaverunt ab eo.
34 And a [certain] man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness: wherefore he said to the driver of his chariot, Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the host; for I am wounded.
Vir autem quidam tetendit arcum, in incertum sagittam dirigens, et casu percussit regem Israel inter pulmonem et stomachum. At ille dixit aurigae suo: Verte manum tuam, et eiice me de exercitu, quia graviter vulneratus sum.
35 And the battle increased that day: and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians, and died at evening: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot.
Commissum est ergo praelium in die illa, et rex Israel stabat in curru suo contra Syros, et mortuus est vespere: fluebat autem sanguis plagae in sinum currus,
36 And there went a proclamation throughout the host about the setting of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his own country.
et praeco insonuit in universo exercitu antequam sol occumberet, dicens: Unusquisque revertatur in civitatem, et in terram suam.
37 So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
Mortuus est autem rex, et perlatus est in Samariam: sepelieruntque regem in Samaria,
38 And [one] washed the chariot in the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood; and they washed his armor; according to the word of the LORD which he spoke.
et laverunt currum eius in piscina Samariae, et linxerunt canes sanguinem eius, et habenas laverunt, iuxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat.
39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he made, and all the cities that he built, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Reliqua autem sermonum Achab, et universa quae fecit, et domus eburnea, quam aedificavit, cunctarumque urbium quas extruxit, nonne haec scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Israel?
40 So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.
Dormivit ergo Achab cum patribus suis, et regnavit Ochozias filius eius pro eo.
41 And Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
Iosaphat vero filius Asa regnare coeperat super Iudam anno quarto Achab regis Israel.
42 Jehoshaphat [was] thirty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name [was] Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
Triginta quinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset, et vigintiquinque annis regnavit in Ierusalem: nomen matris eius Azuba filia Salai.
43 And he walked in all the way of Asa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing [that which was] right in the eyes of the LORD: nevertheless the high places were not taken away; [for] the people offered and burnt incense yet in the high places.
Et ambulavit in omni via Asa patris sui, et non declinavit ex ea: fecitque quod rectum erat in conspectu Domini. Verumtamen excelsa non abstulit: adhuc enim populus sacrificabat, et adolebat incensum in excelsis.
44 And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
Pacemque habuit Iosaphat cum rege Israel.
45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he showed, and how he warred, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Reliqua autem verborum Iosaphat, et opera eius, quae gessit, et praelia, nonne haec scripta sunt in Libro verborum dierum regum Iuda?
46 And the remnant of the sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa, he removed from the land.
Sed et reliquias effeminatorum, qui remanserant in diebus Asa patris eius, abstulit de terra.
47 [There was] then no king in Edom: a deputy [was] king.
Nec erat tunc rex constitutus in Edom.
48 Jehoshaphat made ships of Tharshish to go to Ophir for gold: but they went not; for the ships were broken at Ezion-geber.
Rex vero Iosaphat fecerat classes in mari, quae navigarent in Ophir propter aurum: et ire non potuerunt, quia confractae sunt in Asiongaber.
49 Then said Ahaziah the son of Ahab to Jehoshaphat, Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not.
Tunc ait Ochozias filius Achab ad Iosaphat: Vadant servi mei cum servis tuis in navibus. Et noluit Iosaphat.
50 And 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.
Dormivitque Iosaphat cum patribus suis, et sepultus est cum eis in Civitate David patris sui: regnavitque Ioram filius eius pro eo.
51 Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned two years over Israel.
Ochozias autem filius Achab regnare coeperat super Israel in Samaria, anno septimodecimo Iosaphat regis Iuda, regnavitque super Israel duobus annis.
52 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, 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, who made Israel to sin:
Et fecit malum in conspectu Domini, et ambulavit in via patris sui et matris suae, et in via Ieroboam filii Nabat, qui peccare fecit Israel.
53 For he served Baal, and worshiped him, and provoked to anger the LORD God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
Servivit quoque Baal, et adoravit eum, et irritavit Dominum Deum Israel, iuxta omnia quae fecerat pater eius.
