1Now Josaphat was rich and very glorious, and was joined by affinity to Achab.
1Ke Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah el kasrupi ac pwengpeng, el akoo sie marut inmasrlon sie mwet in sou lal ac sie in sou lal Tokosra Ahab lun Israel.
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.
2In kutu yac tok, Jehoshaphat el som nu in siti Samaria in mutwata yorol Ahab. Na Ahab el sap in anwuki sheep ac cow puspis in orala sie kufwa in akfulatyal Jehoshaphat ac mwet ma welul. Ac el eyeinse nu sel Jehoshaphat elan welul mweuni acn Ramoth in Gilead.
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.
3El siyuk sel, “Kom ac ku in wiyu mweuni acn Ramoth?” Jehoshaphat el topuk, “Pacl na kom akola, nga ac mwet luk uh akola pac. Kut ac wi kom.”
4And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, at present the word of the Lord.
4Na el tafwelana in fahk, “Tusruktu, kut in suk nunak lun LEUM GOD meet.”
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.
5Ouinge Ahab el pangonma mwet palu lal, pisalos akuran sun mwet angfoko, na el siyuk selos, “Ku fal nga in som mweuni acn Ramoth, ku tia?” Elos topuk, “Fahla, mweun. God El ac fah sot kutangla nu sum.”
6And Josaphat said: Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire also of him?
6Tusruktu Jehoshaphat el siyuk, “Ya wangin pac sie mwet palu kut ku in siyuk lungse lun LEUM GOD se?”
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.
7Ahab el topuk, “Oasr pac mwet se, ac inel pa Micaiah, wen natul Imlah. Tusruktu nga srungal mweyen el tiana wi palu wo nu sik. Pacl nukewa el fahk ma na koluk.” Na Jehoshaphat el fahk, “Tia wo kom in fahk ouingan!”
8And the king of Israel called one of the eunuchs, and said to him: Call quickly Micheas the son of Jemla.
8Ouinge Ahab el suli sie mwet kol ke inkul lun tokosra, ac sap elan sulaklak som solalma Micaiah.
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.
9Tokosra luo inge nuknukyang ke nuknuk in tokosra, ac muta fin tron laltal ke acn in sisla kulun wheat likin na mutunpot lun Samaria, ac mwet palu nukewa oru palu lalos ye mutaltal.
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.
10Sie selos pa Zedekiah, wen natul Chenaanah. El orala kutu koac osra, ac el fahk nu sel Ahab, “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Kom fah us koac inge ac sang mweuni mwet Syria, ac kom ac arulana kutangulosla.’”
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.
11Mwet palu nukewa saya fahk oana, “Fahsr lain acn Ramoth, ac kom ac fah kutangla. LEUM GOD El ac asot kutangla nu sum.”
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.
12In pacl sac pacna, mwet kol se su som in eisal Micaiah el fahk nu sel, “Mwet palu nukewa sayom palye ma ac wo nu sin tokosra. Na pa wo kom in fahk oana.”
13And Micheas answered him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever my God shall say to me, that will I speak.
13A Micaiah el topuk, “Ke Inen LEUM GOD moul, ma God luk El fahk, nga fah fahk!”
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.
14Ke el utyak nu ye mutal Tokosra Ahab, na tokosra el siyuk sel, “Micaiah, ku fal nga ac Tokosra Jehoshaphat in som mweuni acn Ramoth, ku tia?” Micaiah el topuk, “Fahla mweun. Kowos ac kutangla! LEUM GOD El ac sot kutangla nu suwos.”
15And the king said: I adjure thee again and again to say nothing but the truth to me, in the name of the Lord.
15Tusruktu Ahab el fahk nu sel, “Ke kom kaskas ke Inen LEUM GOD , fahk na ma pwaye! Pacl ekasr nga enenu nga in fahk ma se inge nu sum?”
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.
16Na Micaiah el topuk fahk, “Nga liye mwet mweun lun Israel oalik fineol uh oana sheep su wangin mwet shepherd lalos. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Wangin mwet kol lun mwet inge. Lela elos in folokla nu yen selos in misla.’”
17And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee that this man would not prophesy me any good, but evil?
17Ahab el fahk nu sel Jehoshaphat, “Nga fahk tari nu sum lah el tia wi palye ma ac wo nu sik, a pacl nukewa ma koluk mukena!”
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.
18Na Micaiah el tafwela ac fahk, “Inge lohng ma LEUM GOD El fahk! Nga liye LEUM GOD El muta fin tron lal inkusrao, ac lipufan nukewa lal elos tu siskal.
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:
19LEUM GOD El siyuk, ‘Su ac fah kiapwella Ahab elan som in tuh anwuki el in acn Ramoth?’ Kutu sin lipufan fahk sie kas, ac kutu fahk sie pac,
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?
20nwe ke na sie ngun fahsryak nu meet, suwosyang nu sin LEUM GOD ac fahk, ‘Nga ac kiapwella.’ LEUM GOD El siyuk, ‘Kom ac oru fuka?’
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.
21Na ngun sac fahk, ‘Nga ac som oru mwet palu nukewa lal Ahab in kikiap.’ Na LEUM GOD El fahk, ‘Fahla kiapwella. El ac lukukla wela ma kom fahk.’”
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.
22Na Micaiah el aksafyela kas lal ac fahk, “Ma na nga fahk uh pa sikyak inge. LEUM GOD El oru tuh mwet palu lom in kiapwekom. A El sifacna akoekomla in sun ongoiya!”
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?
23Na mwet palu Zedekiah el kalukyang nu yorol Micaiah, ac puokya likintupal ac siyuk, “Ku ngac ngun lun LEUM GOD som likiyu ac kaskas nu sum?”
24And Micheas said: Thou thyself shalt see in that day, when thou shalt go in from chamber to chamber, to hide thyself.
24Micaiah el topuk, “Kom ac fah konauk ke pacl se kom ac som in wikla ke sie infukil ma oan tok ah.”
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,
25Na Tokosra Ahab el sap nu sin sie sin leum lal, “Kaprilya Micaiah ac usalla nu sel Amon, governor lun siti uh, ac nu sel Fisrak Joash.
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.
26Fahkang mu eltal in siselang nu in presin, ac sang na bread ac kof kital, nwe ke pacl nga moul foloko.”
27And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.
27Micaiah 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!”
28So the king of Israel and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.
28Na Tokosra Ahab lun Israel ac Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun Judah eltal som in mweuni siti Ramoth in acn Gilead.
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.
29Ahab el fahk nu sel Jehoshaphat, “Ke kut ac som nu ke mweun uh, nga ac fah tia nukum nuknuk in tokosra luk, a kom nukum na nuknuk in tokosra lom.” Ouinge tokosra lun Israel el ekulla lumahl ke el som nu ke mweun.
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.
30Tokosra lun Syria el sap nu sin captain lun chariot lal uh in tia mweuni kutena mwet sayen tokosra lun Israel.
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.
31Ouinge ke elos liyal Tokosra Jehoshaphat elos nunku mu el pa tokosra lun Israel, ac elos forang in mweunel. Na Jehoshaphat el liksreni wola, ac LEUM GOD El molella, ac folokunla mwet ukwal ah.
32For when the captains of the cavalry saw, that he was not the king of Israel, they left him.
32Captain lun chariot elos liye tuh tia tokosra Israel pa el, ouinge elos tila ukwal.
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.
33Tusruktu sie sin mwet mweun lun Syria el pusrkala pisr natul ac tiana etu lah ac sonol Tokosra Ahab, tuh pa pisrkilya ke kupasr lun mwe loang kacl. Ahab el wola nu sin mwet se us chariot natul ah, “Nga kineta! Forla, kaing!”
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.
34Ke mweun uh srakna upa, Tokosra Ahab el fungla na muta in chariot natul, ac ngetla nu yurin mwet Syria. Na ke faht ah tili, el misa.
