1Now Josaphat was rich and very glorious, and was joined by affinity to Achab.
1约沙法 大有尊荣资财，就与 亚哈 结亲。
2And he went down to him after some years to Samaria: and Achab at his coming killed sheep and oxen in abundance for him and the people that came with him: and he persuaded him to go up to Ramoth Galaad.
2过了几年，他下到 撒马利亚 去见 亚哈 ； 亚哈 为他和跟从他的人宰了许多牛羊，劝他与自己同去攻取 基列 的 拉末 。
3And Achab king of Israel said to Josaphat king of Juda: Come with me to Ramoth Galaad. And he answered him: Thou art as I am, and my people as thy people, and we will be with thee in the war.
3以色列 王 亚哈 问 犹大 王 约沙法 说：「你肯同我去攻取 基列 的 拉末 吗？」他回答说：「你我不分彼此，我的民与你的民一样，必与你同去争战。」
4And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, at present the word of the Lord.
4约沙法 对 以色列 王说：「请你先求问耶和华。」
5So the king of Israel gathered together of the prophets four hundred men, and he said to them: Shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or shall we forbear? But they said: Go up, and God will deliver it into the king’s hand.
5于是 以色列 王招聚先知四百人，问他们说：「我们上去攻取 基列 的 拉末 可以不可以？」他们说：「可以上去，因为 神必将那城交在王的手里。」
6And Josaphat said: Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire also of him?
6约沙法 说：「这里不是还有耶和华的先知，我们可以求问他吗？」
7And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: There is one man, of whom we may ask the will of the Lord: but I hate him, for he never prophesieth good to me, but always evil: and it is Micheas the son of Jemla. And Josaphat said: Speak not thus, O king.
7以色列 王对 约沙法 说：「还有一个人，是 音拉 的儿子 米该雅 。我们可以托他求问耶和华，只是我恨他；因为他指着我所说的预言，不说吉语，常说凶言。」 约沙法 说：「王不必这样说。」
8And the king of Israel called one of the eunuchs, and said to him: Call quickly Micheas the son of Jemla.
8以色列 王就召了一个太监来，说：「你快去将 音拉 的儿子 米该雅 召来。」
9Now the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, both sat on their thrones, clothed in royal robes, and they sat in the open court by the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them.
9以色列 王和 犹大 王 约沙法 在 撒马利亚 城门前的空场上，各穿朝服坐在位上，所有的先知都在他们面前说预言。
10And Sedecias the son of Chanaana made him horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.
10基拿拿 的儿子 西底家 造了两个铁角，说：「耶和华如此说：『你要用这角抵触 亚兰 人，直到将他们灭尽。』」
11And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, and said: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and thou shalt prosper, and the Lord will deliver them into the king’s hand.
11所有的先知也都这样预言说：「可以上 基列 的 拉末 去，必然得胜，因为耶和华必将那城交在王的手中。」
12And the messenger that went to call Micheas, said to him: Behold the words of all the prophets with one mouth declare good to the king: I beseech thee therefore let not thy word disagree with them, and speak thou also good success.
12那去召 米该雅 的使者对 米该雅 说：「众先知一口同音地都向王说吉言，你不如与他们说一样的话，也说吉言。」
13And Micheas answered him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever my God shall say to me, that will I speak.
13米该雅 说：「我指着永生的耶和华起誓，我的 神说什么，我就说什么。」
14So he came to the king: and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or forbear? And he answered him: Go up, for all shall succeed prosperously, and the enemies shall be delivered into your hands.
14米该雅 到王面前，王问他说：「 米该雅 啊，我们上去攻取 基列 的 拉末 可以不可以？」他说：「可以上去，必然得胜，敌人必交在你们手里。」
15And the king said: I adjure thee again and again to say nothing but the truth to me, in the name of the Lord.
15王对他说：「我当嘱咐你几次，你才奉耶和华的名向我说实话呢？」
16Then he said: I saw all Israel scattered in the mountains, like sheep without a shepherd: and the Lord said: These have no masters: let every man return to his own house in peace.
16米该雅 说：「我看见 以色列 众民散在山上，如同没有牧人的羊群一般。耶和华说：『这民没有主人，他们可以平平安安地各归各家去。』」
17And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee that this man would not prophesy me any good, but evil?
17以色列 王对 约沙法 说：「我岂没有告诉你，这人指着我所说的预言，不说吉语，单说凶言吗？」
18Then he said: Hear ye 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.
18米该雅 说：「你们要听耶和华的话。我看见耶和华坐在宝座上，天上的万军侍立在他左右。
19And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall in Ramoth Galaad? And when one spoke in this manner, and another otherwise:
19耶和华说：『谁去引诱 以色列 王 亚哈 上 基列 的 拉末 去阵亡呢？』这个就这样说，那个就那样说。
20There came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means wilt thou deceive him?
20随后，有一个神灵出来，站在耶和华面前说：『我去引诱他。』耶和华问他说：『你用何法呢？』
21And he answered: I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive, and shalt prevail: go out, and do so.
21他说：『我去，要在他众先知口中作谎言的灵。』耶和华说：『这样，你必能引诱他，你去如此行吧！』
22Now therefore behold the Lord hath put a spirit of lying in the mouth of all thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.
22现在耶和华使谎言的灵入了你这些先知的口，并且耶和华已经命定降祸与你。」
23And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek and said: Which way went the spirit of the Lord from me, to speak to thee?
23基拿拿 的儿子 西底家 前来打 米该雅 的脸，说：「耶和华的灵从哪里离开我与你说话呢？」
24And Micheas said: Thou thyself shalt see in that day, when thou shalt go in from chamber to chamber, to hide thyself.
24米该雅 说：「你进严密的屋子藏躲的那日，就必看见了。」
25And the king of Israel commanded, saying: Take Micheas, and carry him to Amen the governor of the city, and to Joas the son of Amelech,
25以色列 王说：「将 米该雅 带回，交给邑宰 亚们 和王的儿子 约阿施 ，说：
26And say: Thus saith the king: Put this fellow in prison, and give him bread and water in a small quantity till I return in peace.
26『王如此说：把这个人下在监里，使他受苦，吃不饱喝不足，等候我平平安安地回来。』」
27And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.
27米该雅 说：「你若能平安回来，那就是耶和华没有借我说这话了」；又说：「众民哪，你们都要听！」
28So the king of Israel and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.
28以色列 王和 犹大 王 约沙法 上 基列 的 拉末 去了。
29And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: I will change my dress, and so I will go to the battle, but put thou on thy own garments. And the king of Israel having changed his dress, went to the battle.
29以色列 王对 约沙法 说：「我要改装上阵，你可以仍穿王服。」于是 以色列 王改装，他们就上阵去了。
30Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his cavalry, saying: Fight ye not with small, or great, but with the king of Israel only.
30先是 亚兰 王吩咐车兵长说：「他们的 兵将 ，无论大小，你们都不可与他们争战，只要与 以色列 王争战。」
31So when the captains of the cavalry saw Josaphat, they said: This is the king of Israel. And they surrounded him to attack him: but he cried to the Lord, and he helped him, and turned them away from him.
31车兵长看见 约沙法 便说，这必是 以色列 王，就转过去与他争战。 约沙法 一呼喊，耶和华就帮助他， 神又感动他们离开他。
32For when the captains of the cavalry saw, that he was not the king of Israel, they left him.
32车兵长见不是 以色列 王，就转去不追他了。
33And it happened that one of the people shot an arrow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the neck and the shoulders, and he said to his chariot man: Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the battle, for I am wounded.
33有一人随便开弓，恰巧射入 以色列 王的甲缝里。王对赶车的说：「我受了重伤，你转过车来，拉我出阵吧！」
34And the fight was ended that day: but the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians until the evening, and died at the sunset.
34那日阵势越战越猛， 以色列 王勉强站在车上抵挡 亚兰 人，直到晚上。约在日落的时候，王就死了。
