Sie Tokosra 22
1 Oasr misla inmasrlon Israel ac Syria ke yac luo kutu,
And there passed three years without war between Syria and Israel.
2 tusruktu, in yac se aktolu, Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah el som in osun nu sel Tokosra Ahab lun Israel.
And in the third year, Josaphat king of Juda came down to the king of Israel.
3 Ahab el siyuk sin mwet pwapa fulat lal, “Efu ku wanginna ma kut oru in folokonma acn Ramoth in Gilead liki tokosra lun Syria? Siti sac ma lasr!”
(And the king of Israel said to his servants: Know ye not-that Ramoth Galaad is ours, and we neglect to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?)
4 Na Ahab el siyuk sel Jehoshaphat, “Kom ac ku in wiyu som mweuni acn Ramoth?” Ac Jehoshaphat el fahk, “Pacl na kom akola nga akola pac, oayapa mwet mweun luk ac mwet kasrusr fin horse luk elos akola pac.
And he said to Josaphat: Wilt thou come with me to battle to Ramoth Galaad?
5 Tusruk, kut in siyuk sin LEUM GOD meet.”
And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: As I am, so art thou: my people and thy people are one: and my horsemen, thy horsemen. And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, this day, the word of the Lord.
6 Ouinge Ahab el pangoneni mwet palu lal, su sahp ac oasr mwet angfoko selos, ac el siyuk selos, “Ku nga ac som mweuni acn Ramoth, ku tia?” Elos topuk mu, “Mweuni. LEUM GOD El ac sot kutangla nu sum.”
Then the king of Israel assembled the prophets, about four hundred men, and he said to them: Shall I go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or shall I forbear? They answered: Go up, and the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.
7 A Jehoshaphat el siyuk, “Ku wangin pac sie mwet palu saya ma kut ac ku in siyuk se in tafwekut nu sin LEUM GOD?”
And Josaphat said: Is there not here some prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire by him?
8 Na Ahab el fahk, “Oasr pac sie: Micaiah, wen natul Imlah, tuh nga srungal na mweyen el soenna oru palu wo nu sik. Pacl nukewa ac ma na koluk.” Ac Jehoshaphat el fahk, “Meet fahk ouingan.”
And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: There is one man left, by whom we may inquire of the Lord: Micheas the son of Jemla; but I hate him, for he doth not prophesy good to me, but evil. And Josaphat said: Speak not so, O king.
9 Na Ahab el pangonma sie sin mwet fulat inkul sel ac fahk nu sel elan sulaklak som usalu Micaiah.
Then the king of Israel called an eunuch, and said to him: Make haste, and bring hither Micheas the son of Jemla.
10 Tokosra luo ah naweyukla ke nuknuk in leum laltal, ac muta fin tron laltal ke acn in kulkul wheat su oanna likin mutunpot in Samaria, ac mwet palu nukewa elos fahk kas in palu ye mutaltal.
Then the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, sat each on his throne clothed with royal robes, in a court by the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them.
11 Sie selos, Zedekiah wen natul Chenaanah, el mwet orek koac osra, ac el fahk nu sel Ahab, “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk: ‘Mweunkin koac inge ac kom fah sukela nufon mwet Syria.’”
And Sedecias the son of Chanaana made himself horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.
12 Mwet palu saya elos wi pac fahk, “Fahla mweuni acn Ramoth, ac kom ac kutangla. LEUM GOD El ac sot kutangla nu sum.”
And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, saying: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the king’s hands.
13 In pacl se ingan, mwet kol fulat se ma som in solal Micaiah el fahk nu sel, “Micaiah, mwet palu nukewa sayom elos palu fahk mu ac wo ouiyal tokosra ke mweun uh, na wona kom in fahk oapana elos.”
And the messenger, that went to call Micheas, spoke to him, saying: Behold the words of the prophets with one month declare good things to the king: let thy word therefore be like to theirs, and speak that which is good.
14 Micaiah el fahk, “Ke Inen LEUM GOD moul, nga wulela mu nga ac fahk na ma El sap nga in fahk uh!”
But Micheas said to him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever the Lord shall say to me, that will I speak.
15 Ke pacl se el tuku ac tu ye mutal Tokosra Ahab, tokosra el siyuk sel, “Micaiah, ku ac wo nga ac Tokosra Jehoshaphat in som mweuni acn Ramoth, ku tia?” Micaiah el topuk, “Fahla, mweun! Pwaye kom ac kutangla. LEUM GOD El ac sot kom in kutangla.”
So he came to the king, and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to battle, or shall we forbear? He answered him: Go up, and prosper, and the Lord shall deliver it into the king’s hands.
16 Tusruk Ahab el topuk ac fahk, “Nga nuna kalweni na in fahk nu sum lah kom fin kaskas nu sik Inen LEUM GOD, fahk ma pwaye an!”
But the king said to him: I adjure thee again and again, that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the Lord.
17 Micaiah el topuk, “Nga ku in liye mwet mweun lun Israel oalik fineol uh oana sheep su wangin mwet shepherd yorolos. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk ouinge, ‘Mwet inge wangin mwet kol lalos. Lela elos in folokla nu yen selos in misla.’”
And he said: I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, like sheep that have no shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no master: let every man of them return to his house in peace.
18 Ahab el fahk nu sel Jehoshaphat, “Ya nga tia fahk tari nu sum lah wangin pacl el palu wo keik? Pacl nukewa ma na koluk!”
(Then the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee, that he prophesieth no good to me, but always evil?)
19 Na Micaiah el sifilpa fahk, “Inge, lohng ma LEUM GOD El fahk! Nga liye ke LEUM GOD El muta fin tron lal inkusrao, ac lipufan lal nukewa tu siskal — kutu layen layot ac kutu layen lasa.
And he added and said: Hear thou therefore the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left:
20 LEUM GOD El siyuk, ‘Su ac kiapwella Ahab elan som in tuh anwuki el in acn Ramoth?’ Kutu sin lipufan uh fahk sie ma, ac kutu fahk pacna sie ma,
And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up, and fall at Ramoth Galaad? And one spoke words of this manner, and another otherwise.
21 nwe ke na sie ngun uh fahsryak nu meet, ac kalukyang nu yurin LEUM GOD ac fahk, ‘Nga ac kiapwella.’
And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means?
22 Na LEUM GOD El siyuk, ‘Kom ac kiapwel fuka?’ Na ngun sac fahk, ‘Nga ac som ac oru mwet palu lal Ahab nukewa in fahk kas kikiap.’ LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Fahla kiapwella. Kom ac ku in orala.’”
And he said: I will go forth, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive him, and shalt prevail: a go forth, and do so.
23 Na Micaiah el aksafye sramsram lal ke kas inge: “Sikyak tari ma inge. LEUM GOD El oru mwet palu lom inge in fahk kas kikiap nu sum. A El nu wotela sel tari mu kom ac sun ongoiya lulap!”
Now therefore behold the Lord hath given a lying spirit in the mouth of all thy prophets that are here, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.
24 Na mwet palu Zedekiah el fahsryak nu yorol Micaiah, ac puokya mutal ac siyuk sel, “Ku ngac ngun lun LEUM GOD fahsr likiyu ac kaskas nu sum?”
And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek, and said: Hath then the spirit of the Lord left me, and spoken to thee?
25 Na Micaiah el fahk, “Ac fah kalem sum ke kom ac som wikla ke sie fukil oan tok ke sie lohm.”
And Micheas said: Thou shalt see in the day when thou shalt go into a chamber within a chamber to hide thyself.
26 Na Tokosra Ahab el sap, “Sruokilya Micaiah, ac usalla nu yorol Amon, governor lun siti uh, ac nu yorol Fisrak Joash.
And the king of Israel said: Take Micheas, and let him abide with Ammon the governor of the city, and with Joas the son of Amalech.
27 Fahkang eltal in siselang nu in presin, ac sang na flao ac kof elan kang nwe ke na nga fin wo ouiya foloko.”
And tell them: Thus saith the king: Put this man in prison, and feed him with bread of affliction, and water of distress, till I return in peace.
28 Micaiah el fahk, “Kom fin moul foloko, na kalem lah tia LEUM GOD pa supweyu in fahk ma inge!” El tafwelana in fahk, “Kowos nukewa porongo ma nga fahk uh!”
And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.
29 Na Tokosra Ahab lun Israel ac Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah som in mweuni acn Ramoth in Gilead.
So the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.
30 Ahab el fahk nu sel Jehoshaphat, “Ke kut ac som nu ke mweun uh, nga ac ekulla lumuk, a kom nukum na nuknuk in leum lom.” Ouinge tokosra lun Israel el ekulla lumahl ke el som nu ke mweun ah.
And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Take armour, and go into the battle, and put on thy own garments. But the king of Israel changed his dress, and went into the battle.
31 Tokosra lun Syria el sap mwet leum lun chariot tolngoul luo lal in tia mweuni kutena mwet saya, a elos in sukna tokosra Israel mukena.
And the king of Syria had commanded the two and thirty captains of the chariots, saying: You shall not fight against any, small or great, but against the king of Israel only.
32 Ouinge ke elos liyalak Tokosra Jehoshaphat elos nukewa nunku mu tokosra Israel pa el, na elos forang in mweunel. Tuh ke el wola,
So when the captains of the chariots saw Josaphat, they suspected that he was the king of Israel, and making a violent assault they fought against him: and Josaphat cried out.
33 elos akilenak lah tia tokosra lun Israel, na elos tui tila mweunel.
And the captains of the chariots perceived that he was not the king of and they turned away from him.
34 Tusruktu sie sin mwet mweun lun Syria el ana pusrkala pisr natul ah tuh pa falyang faksilya Tokosra Ahab ke kupasr ke nuknuk in mweun lal ah. Na el wola nu sin mwet utuk chariot lal ac fahk, “Nga kineta! Forla ac usyula liki mweun uh!”
And a certain man bent his bow, shooting at a venture, and chanced to strike the king of Israel between the lungs and the stomach. But he said to the driver of his chariot: Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the army, for I am grievously wounded.
35 Ke mweun uh srakna upa, Tokosra Ahab el fungla na muta fin chariot natul ac forang nu sin mwet Syria. Srah ke kinet kacl ah sorori nwakla kapin chariot natul ah. Ke ekela na el misa.
And the battle was fought that day, and the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians, and he died in the evening: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot.
36 Ke faht ah apkuran in tili, kas se inge fwackelik nu sin mwet mweun nukewa lun Israel: “Mwet nukewa folokelik nu in facl sel ku siti sel.”
And the herald proclaimed through all the army before the sun set, saying: Let every man return to his own city, and to his own country.
37 Ouinge Tokosra Ahab el misa. Utukla manol ac pukpuki Samaria.
And the king died, and was carried into Samaria: and they buried the king in Samaria.
38 Chariot natul ah owola ke lulu in kof Samaria, yen kosro ngalngul uh lohila srah ma sororla kacl uh we, ac mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lalos elos yihyih we, in oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk mu ac sikyak.
And they washed his chariot in the pool of Samaria, and the dogs licked up his blood, and they washed the reins, according to the word of the Lord which he had spoken.
39 Ma nukewa saya ma Tokosra Ahab el orala, weang pac sramsram ke lohm sel su naweyukla ke ivory, wi pac siti nukewa ma el musaela, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke] Tokosra Lun Israel.
But the rest of the acts of Achab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he made, and all the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
40 Ac ke el misa, Ahaziah wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
So Achab slept with his fathers, and Ochozias his son reigned in his stead.
41 In yac akakosr ke pacl Tokosra Ahab el leumi Israel, Jehoshaphat wen natul Asa, el tokosrala lun Judah
But Josaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Juda in the fourth year of Achab king of Israel.

He was five and thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Azuba the daughter of Salai.

And he walked in all the way of Asa his father, and he declined not from it: and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord. Nevertheless he took not away the high places: for as Set the people offered sacrifices and burnt incense in the high places.

And Josaphat had peace with the king of Israel.

But the rest of the acts of Josaphat, and his works which he did, and his batties, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?

And there was then no king appointed in Edom.

He served also Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the Lord the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
