2 Kings 3
1 Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.
Ary Jorama, zanak’ i Ahaba, vao nanjaka tamin’ ny Isiraely tao Samaria tamin’ ny fahavalo ambin’ ny folo taona nanjakan’ i Josafata, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ary nanjaka roa ambin’ ny folo taona izy.
2 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, but not like his father and like his mother, for he put away the pillar of Baal that his father had made.
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah koa izy, nefa kosa tsy dia tahaka an-drainy, na tahaka an-dreniny; fa nanaisotra ilay tsangam-baton’ i Bala izay nataon’ drainy izy;
3 Nevertheless he held to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin. He didn’t depart from them.
nefa izy nikikitra tamin’ ny fahotan’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata, izay nampanotany ny Isiraely, fa tsy niala tamin’ izany.
4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheep breeder; and he supplied the king of Israel with one hundred thousand lambs and the wool of one hundred thousand rams.
Ary Mesa, mpanjakan’ i Moaba, nanana ondry betsaka; ary nandoa hetra ho an’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izy, dia zanak’ ondry iray hetsy sy ny volon’ ondrilahy iray hetsy.
5 But when Ahab was dead, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
Fa rehefa maty Ahaba, dia niodina tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely ny mpanjakan’ i Moaba.
6 King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and mustered all Israel.
Ary Jorama mpanjaka nivoaka avy tany Samaria tamin’ izany andro izany ka nandamina ny Isiraely rehetra.
7 He went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me against Moab to battle?” He said, “I will go up. I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”
Ary nandeha izy, dia naniraka tany amin’ i Josafata, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ka nanao hoe: Ny mpanjakan’ i Moaba efa niodina tamiko: koa mba hiaraka amiko va ianao hiady aminy? Ary hoy izy: Eny, handeha aho, fa tahaka ny tenanao ihany aho, ka ny oloko dia olonao, ary ny soavaliko dia soavalinao.
8 Then he said, “Which way shall we go up?” Jehoram answered, “The way of the wilderness of Edom.”
Ary hoy izy: Aiza ary no lalana halehantsika? Ary izy namaly hoe: Ilay mamaky ny efitr’ i Edoma.
9 So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah and the king of Edom, and they marched for seven days along a circuitous route. There was no water for the army or for the animals that followed them.
Dia nandeha ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda ary ny mpanjakan’ i Edoma; ary nandeha nanodidina lalan-kafitoana izy; ary tsy nisy rano ho an’ ny miaramila sy ny biby fiompy izay nentiny.
10 The king of Israel said, “Alas! For the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”
Dia hoy ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely: Indrisy! Jehovah efa niantso ireto mpanjaka telo ireto mba hatolony eo an-tànan’ i Moaba.
11 But Jehoshaphat said, “Isn’t there a prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of the LORD by him?” One of the king of Israel’s servants answered, “Elisha the son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah, is here.”
Ary hoy Josafata: Tsy misy mpaminanin’ i Jehovah va eto hanontaniantsika amin’ i Jehovah? Ary nisy anankiray tamin’ ny mpanompon’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely namaly ka nanao hoe: Ato ihany Elisa, zanak’ i Safata, ilay mpanondra-drano ny tànan’ i Elia.
12 Jehoshaphat said, “The LORD’s word is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
Ary hoy Josafata: Ao amin’ izy io tokoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah. Dia nidina nankany amin’ i Elisa ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely sy Josafata ary ny mpanjakan’ i Edoma.
13 Elisha said to the king of Israel, “What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father, and to the prophets of your mother.” The king of Israel said to him, “No, for the LORD has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.”
Ary hoy Elisa tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely: Moa mifaninona akory izaho sy ianao? Mandehana any amin’ ny mpaminanin-drainao sy ny mpaminanin-dreninao ianao. Fa hoy ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely taminy: Tsia, fa Jehovah efa niantso ireto mpanjaka telo ireto mba hatolony eo an-tànan’ i Moaba.
14 Elisha said, “As the LORD of Hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I respect the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward you, nor see you.
Dia hoy Elisa: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Izay itsanganako eo anatrehany, raha tsy noho ny fanajako an’ i Josafata, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, dia tsy hanatrika anao na hijery anao akory aho.
15 But now bring me a musician.” When the musician played, the LORD’s hand came on him.
Nefa itondray mpitendry lokanga aho. Ary rehefa nitendry ilay mpitendry lokanga, dia nanindry an’ i Elisa ny tànan’ i Jehovah.
16 He said, “The LORD says, ‘Make this valley full of trenches.’
Ary hoy Elisa: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Ataovy feno lavaka ity lohasahan-driaka ity.
17 For the LORD says, ‘You will not see wind, neither will you see rain, yet that valley will be filled with water, and you will drink, both you and your livestock and your other animals.
Fa hoy Jehovah: Tsy hahita rivotra na ranonorana akory ianareo; nefa ho feno rano io lohasahan-driaka io, mba hosotroinareo, dia ianareo sy ny ombinareo ary ny biby fiompinareo.
18 This is an easy thing in the LORD’s sight. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
Ary ho zavatra kely ihany eo imason’ i Jehovah izany; fa hanolotra ny Moabita eo an-tananareo koa Izy.
19 You shall strike every fortified city and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.’”
Ary handrava ny tanàna mimanda rehetra sy ny tanàna soa rehetra ianareo sady hikapa ny hazo tsara rehetra sy hanampina ny loharano rehetra ary hanipy vato amin’ ny tany soa rehetra ho fanimbana azy.
20 In the morning, about the time of offering the sacrifice, behold, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
Ary nony maraina, tokony ho tamin’ ny fotoana fanaterana ny fanatitra, dia, indro, nisy rano tokoa tonga avy tamin’ ny lalana mankany Edoma, ka feno rano ny tany.
21 Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all who were able to put on armor, young and old, and stood on the border.
Ary rehefa ren’ ny Moabita rehetra fa avy miakatra hiady aminy ireo mpanjaka ireo, dia nivory izy hatramin’ izay rehetra nahatam-piadiana no ho miakatra, ka dia niandry teo amin’ ny sisin-taniny.
22 They rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone on the water, and the Moabites saw the water opposite them as red as blood.
Ary nony nifoha maraina koa ny Moabita, sady efa niposaka ny masoandro ka nitaratra tamin’ ny rano, dia hitany ny rano tandrifiny fa mena tahaka ny rà.
23 They said, “This is blood. The kings are surely destroyed, and they have struck each other. Now therefore, Moab, to the plunder!”
Dia hoy izy: Rà io! efa nifandringana tokoa ireo mpanjaka ireo, ary efa nifamely izy rehetra; koa mamaboa amin’ izao, ry Moaba!
24 When they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and struck the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they went forward into the land attacking the Moabites.
Kanjo nony efa tonga teo an-tobin’ ny Isiraely izy, dia nitsangana ny Isiraely ka namely ny Moabita, dia nandositra teo anoloany ireo; fa ny Isiraely niditra hatrany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Moabita ka mbola namely azy ihany.
25 They beat down the cities; and on every good piece of land each man cast his stone, and filled it. They also stopped all the springs of water and cut down all the good trees, until in Kir Hareseth all they left was its stones; however the men armed with slings went around it and attacked it.
Dia nandrava ny tanàna izy ary samy nanipy vato tamin’ ny tany soa rehetra ka nahafeno azy, ary nanampina ny loharano rehetra koa izy sady nikapa ny hazo tsara rehetra mandra-paha-tsy nisy vato intsony afa-tsy ny tao Kira-haresa ihany; ary na dia io aza dia nohodidinin’ ny mpandefa antsamotady ka nasiany.
26 When the king of Moab saw that the battle was too severe for him, he took with him seven hundred men who drew a sword, to break through to the king of Edom; but they could not.
Ary rehefa hitan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Moaba fa tsy tohany ny ady, dia nitondra fiton-jato lahy nahay sabatra nomba azy izy mba hanivakivaka hitsin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Edoma; nefa tsy afaka izy.
27 Then he took his oldest son who would have reigned in his place, and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall. There was great wrath against Israel; and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.
Ary nalainy ny zanany lahimatoa, izay natao hanjaka handimby azy, ka nateriny ho fanatitra dorana teo ambonin’ ny manda. Dia niharan’ ny fahatezerana mafy ny Isiraely, dia niala taminy ary niverina ho any amin’ ny taniny izy.
