¹And they continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.

¹[Ny nikambanan'i Ahaba sy Josafata hiady amin'ny Syriana, sy ny nakany hevitra tamin'ny mpaminany, ary ny nahafatesan'i Ahaba] Ary nandry fahizay ny Syriana sy ny Isiraely telo taona, fa tsy niady.

²And it came to pass in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.

²Ary nony tamin'ny taona fahatelo, dia nidina Josafata, mpanjakan'ny Joda, ho any amin'ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely.

³And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that Ramoth in Gilead is ours, and we be still, and take it not out of the hand of the king of Syria?

³Ary hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely tamin'ny mpanompony: Moa fantatrareo va fa antsika Ramota-gileada, nefa isika mitoetra foana ka tsy maka azy amin'ny tanan'ny mpanjakan'i Syria?

⁴And he said unto Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to battle to Ramothgilead? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as thou art, my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses.

⁴Ary hoy koa izy tamin'i Josafata: Mba hiaraka amiko hiady an'i Ramota-gileada va ianao? Dia hoy Josafata tamin'ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely. Eny, fa tahaka ny tenanao ihany aho, ka ny oloko dia olonao, ary ny soavaliko dia soavalinao.

⁵And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, Enquire, I pray thee, at the word of the LORD to day.

⁵Ary hoy Josafata tamin'ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely: Masìna ianao, anontanio aloha ny tenin'i Jehovah.

⁶Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said unto them, Shall I go against Ramothgilead to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said, Go up; for the LORD shall deliver it into the hand of the king.

⁶Ary ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely dia nanangona ny mpaminany tokony ho efa-jato lahy ka nanao taminy hoe: Handena hanafika an'i Ramota-gileada va aho, sa hijanona ihany? Dia hoy ireo: Mandehana, fa hatolotry ny Tompo eo an-tananao izy, ry mpanjaka.

⁷And Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the LORD besides, that we might enquire of him?

⁷Ary hoy kosa Josafata: Moa tsy misy mpaminanin'i Jehovah koa va eto mba hanontaniantsika?

⁸And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may enquire 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.

⁸Dia hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely tamin'i Josafata: Mbola misy lehilahy iray ihany, dia Mikaia, zanak'i Jimla, izay ahazoantsika manontany amin'i Jehovah, saingy halako izy, satria tsy mba maminany soa ho ahy izy. fa loza ihany. Dia hoy Josafata: Aza manao izany, ry mpanjaka.

⁹Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, Hasten hither Micaiah the son of Imlah.

⁹Ary ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely niantso ny tandapa anankiray ka nanao taminy hoe: Alao faingana Mikaia, zanak'i Jimla.

¹⁰And 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.

¹⁰Ary ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely sy Josafata, mpanjakan'ny Joda, samy nipetraka teo amin'ny seza fiandrianany avy teo amin'ny famoloana eo anoloan'ny vavahadin'i Samaria sady samy efa niakanjo ny akanjony avy; ary ny mpaminany rehetra naminany teo matrehany.

¹¹And 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 have consumed them.

¹¹Ary Zedekia, zanak'i Kenana, dia nanao tandroby ka nanao hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah: ireto no hanotoanao ny Syriana mandra-paharingany.

¹²And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramothgilead, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver it into the king's hand.

¹²Ary ny mpaminany rehetra naminany toy izany koa hoe: Mandehana any Ramota-gileada, dia hambinina ianao; fa Jehovah hanolotra azy eo an-tananao, ry mpanjaka.

¹³And the messenger that was gone to call Micaiah spake unto him, saying, Behold now, the words of the prophets declare good unto 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.

¹³Ary ilay iraka izay nandeha naka an'i Mikaia niteny taminy hoe: Indro fa efa iray teny avokoa izao ny mpaminany ka milaza soa ho an'ny mpanjaka; masìna ianao, aoka re ny teninao mba ho tahaka ny an'ny anankiray amin'ireo, ka mba mitenena soa koa.

¹⁴And Micaiah said, As the LORD liveth, what the LORD saith unto me, that will I speak.

¹⁴Ary hoy Mikaia: Raha velona koa Jehovah, dia izay lazain'i Jehovah amiko ihany no hambarako.

¹⁵So he came to the king. And the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramothgilead to battle, or shall we forbear? And he answered him, Go, and prosper: for the LORD shall deliver it into the hand of the king.

¹⁵Dia nankany amin'ny mpanjaka izy. Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Ry Mikaia, handeha hanafika an'i Ramota-gileada va isika, sa hijanona ihany? Ary izy namaly azy hoe: Mandehana, fa hambinina ianao, fa hatolotr'i Jehovah eo an-tananao izy, ry mpanjaka.

¹⁶And the king said unto him, How many times shall I adjure thee that thou tell me nothing but that which is true in the name of the LORD?

¹⁶Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Impiry no hampianianako anao mba tsy hilaza na inona na inona amiko amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah afa-tsy izay marina ihany

¹⁷And 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.

¹⁷Dia hoy Mikaia Hitako fa indreny ny Isiraely rehetra niely teny an-tendrombohitra toy ny ondry tsy misy mpiandry, ary hoy Jehovah: Ireto efa tsy manan-tompo, aoka izy samy hody soa aman-tsara any an-tranony avy.

¹⁸And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Did I not tell thee that he would prophesy no good concerning me, but evil?

¹⁸Dia hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely tamin'i Josafata: Tsy efa voalazako taminao va fa tsy mba mety maminany soa ho ahy izy, fa loza ihany?

¹⁹And 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.

¹⁹Ary hoy Mikaia: Henoy ary ny tenin'i Jehovah: Nahita an'i Jehovah nipetraka teo amin'ny seza fiandrianany aho, ary ireo maro be rehetra any an-danitra nitsangana teo andaniny avy, dia teo amin'ny ankavanany sy teo amin'ny ankaviany.

²⁰And the LORD said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner.

²⁰Ary hoy Jehovah: Iza no hitaona an'i Ahaba handeha ho any Ramotagileada ka ho lavo any? Ary ny anankiray niteny toy izao, ary ny anankiray kosa niteny toy izao.

²¹And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will persuade him.

²¹Dia nandroso ny fanahy ka nitsangana teo anatrehan'i Jehovah ary nanao hoe: Izaho no hitaona azy. Ary hoy Jehovah taminy: Amin'inona anefa?

²²And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith? 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.

²²Dia hoy izy: Hivoaka aho ka ho tonga fanahy mandainga ao am-bavan'ny mpaminaniny rehetra. Dia hoy indray Jehovah: Ho voataonanao ihany izy, ka hahatanteraka ianao; mivoaha ary, ka ataovy izany.

²³Now 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.

²³Koa, indro, Jehovah efa nanisy fanahy mandainga ao am-bavan'ireto mpaminaninao rehetra ireto ary Izy koa efa nilaza ny loza hanjo anao.

²⁴But 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 unto thee?

²⁴Fa Zedekia, zanak'i Kenana, nanatona, dia namely ny takolak'i Mikaia sady nanao hoe: Taiza no nialan'ny Fanahin'i Jehovah tamiko hiteny aminao?

²⁵And Micaiah said, Behold, thou shalt see in that day, when thou shalt go into an inner chamber to hide thyself.

²⁵Dia hoy Mikaia: Indro, ho hitanao izany amin'ny andro hidiranao ao amin'ny efi-trano anatiny hierenao.[Na: hitsofotsofohanao amin'ny efi-trano]

²⁶And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah, and carry him back unto Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son;

²⁶Dia hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely: Raiso Mikaia, ka ento miverina izy ho any amin'i Amona, komandin'ny tanàna, sy ho any amin'i Joasy, zanaky ny mpanjaka,

²⁷And say, Thus saith the king, Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I come in peace.

²⁷ka lazao hoe: Izao no lazain'ny mpanjaka: Ataovy ao an-trano-maizina ilehity, ka fahano mofom-pahoriana sy ranom-pahoriana izy mandra-pahatongako soa aman-tsara.

²⁸And Micaiah said, If thou return at all in peace, the LORD hath not spoken by me. And he said, Hearken, O people, every one of you.

²⁸Fa hoy Mikaia: Raha tàhiny ho tafaverina soa aman-tsara ianao dia tsy nampitenenin'i Jehovah aho tsy akory. Ary hoy koa izy: Samia mihaino izany ianareo, ry firenena rehetra.

²⁹So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramothgilead.

²⁹Dia niakatra nankany Ramota-gileada ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely sy Josafata, mpanjakan'ny Joda.

³⁰And the king of Israel said unto 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.

³⁰Ary hoy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely tamin'i Josafata: Hody olon-kafa aho ka hitsarapaka any anatin'ny ady, fa ianao kosa dia miakanjoa ny akanjonao ihany. Dia nody olon-kafa ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely ka nitsarapaka tany anatin'ny ady.

³¹But 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.

³¹Fa ny mpanjakan'i Syria efa nandidy ny roa amby telo-polo lahy, komandin'ny kalesy, nanao hoe: Aza miady na amin'ny kely na amin'ny lehibe, afa-tsy amin'ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely ihany.

³²And 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.

³²Ary nony nahita an'i Josafata ireo komandin'ny kalesy, dia hoy izy: Iny mihitsy no mpanjakan'ny Isiraely. Dia nanatrika hiady taminy ireo; ka dia niantsoantso Josafata.

³³And 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.

³³Ary rehefa hitan'ireo komandin'ny kalesy fa tsy ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely izy, dia niverina niala taminy ireo.

³⁴And a certain man drew a bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the joints of the harness: wherefore he said unto the driver of his chariot, Turn thine hand, and carry me out of the host; for I am wounded.

³⁴Ary nisy lehilahy anankiray nandefa zana-tsipìka kitoatoa ka nahavoa ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely teo anelanelan'ny fiarovan-tratrany sy ny eo ambaniny; ka dia hoy izy tamin'ny mpampandeha ny kalesiny: Ahodino, ka ento miala eto amin'ny ady aho, fa voa.

³⁵And the battle increased that day: and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians, and died at even: and the blood ran out of the wound into the midst of the chariot.

³⁵Ary nihamafy ny ady tamin'izany andro izany; ary ny mpanjaka notohanana hitsangana teo amin'ny kalesiny tandrifin'ny Syriana, ary dia maty izy nony efa harivariva ny andro; ary ny rà nandeha avy teo amin'ny efa voa ho ao anatin'ny kalesy.

³⁶And there went a proclamation throughout the host about the going down of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his own country.

³⁶Ary nony efa hilentika ny masoandro, dia niely eran'ny toby rehetra izao antsoantso izao hoe: Samia mody any an-tanànany avy sy any amin'ny taniny avy!

³⁷So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.

³⁷Dia maty ny mpanjaka, ka nentina tany Samaria izy, dia nalevina tao.

³⁸And one washed the chariot in the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood; and they washed his armor; according unto the word of the LORD which he spake.

³⁸Ary nony nosasana teo am-parihin'i Samaria ny kalesiny, dia avy ny alika nilelaka ny ràny raha nandro tao ny vehivavy janga araka ny tenin'i Jehovah.

³⁹Now 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?

³⁹Ary ny tantaran'i Ahaba sisa mbamin'izay rehetra nataony sy ny trano ivory izay nataony ary ny tanàna rehetra izay naoriny, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin'ny bokin'ny tantaran'ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely va izany?

⁴⁰So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.

⁴⁰Ary Ahaba lasa nodi-mandry any amin'ny razany; ary Ahazia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.

⁴¹And Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.

⁴¹[Ny nanjakan'i Josafata tamin'ny Joda, sy Ahazia tamin'ny Isiraely] Ary Josafata, zanak'i Asa, vao nanjaka tamin'ny Joda tamin'ny taona fahefatra nanjakan'i Ahaba, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely.

⁴²Jehoshaphat 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.

⁴²Dimy amby telo-polo taona Josafata, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary dimy amby roa-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Azoba, zanakavavin'i Sily.

⁴³And he walked in all the ways 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.

⁴³Ary nandeha tamin'ny lalana rehetra izay nalehan'i Asa rainy izy ka tsy niala tamin'izany, fa nanao izay mahitsy eo imason'i Jehovah;

⁴⁴And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.

⁴⁴kanefa kosa ny fitoerana avo tsy mba noravana, fa ny olona mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra sady mbola nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teny amin'ny fitoerana avo ihany.

⁴⁵Now 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?

⁴⁵Ary Josafata nanao fihavanana tamin'ny mpanjakan'ny Isiraely.

⁴⁶And the remnant of the sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa, he took out of the land.

⁴⁶Ary ny tantaran'i Josafata sisa sy ny heriny mbamin'ny niadiany, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin'ny bokin'ny tantaran'ny mpanjakan'ny Joda va izany?

⁴⁷There was then no king in Edom: a deputy was king.

⁴⁷Ary ny sisa amin'ny olona izay nanolo-tena hijangajanga ho fanompoan-tsampy, dia Izay mbola tany tamin'ny andron'i Asa rainy, dia nofongorany hiala amin'ny tany.

⁴⁸Jehoshaphat made ships of Tharshish to go to Ophir for gold: but they went not; for the ships were broken at Eziongeber.

⁴⁸Ary tsy nisy mpanjaka tany Edoma fahizay, fa olona voatendry no nitondra ny fanjakana.

⁴⁹Then said Ahaziah the son of Ahab unto Jehoshaphat, Let my servants go with thy servants in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not.

⁴⁹Ary Josafata nanao sambon'i Tarsisy folo hankany Ofira haka volamena; nefa tsy lasa ireo sambo ireo, fa nahavakiana tao Ezion-gebera.

⁵⁰And 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.

⁵⁰Dia hoy Ahazia, zanak'i Ahaba, tamin'i Josafata: Aoka ny vahoakako hiaraka amin'ny vahoakanao any an-tsambo. Fa tsy nety Josafata.

⁵¹Ahaziah 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.

⁵¹Ary Josafata lasa nodi-mandry any amin'ny razany, dia nalevina tao amin'ny razany tao an-Tanànan'i Davida rainy izy; ary Jehorama zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.

⁵²And 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:

⁵²Ahazia, zanak'i Ahaba, vao nanjaka tamin'ny Isiraely tao Samaria tamin'ny taona fahafito ambin'ny folo nanjakan'i Josafata, mpanjakan'ny Joda; ary nanjaka roa taona tamin'ny Isiraely izy.

⁵³For he served Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked to anger the LORD God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.

⁵³Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah izy, fa nandeha tamin'ny lalan'ny rainy sy ny reniny ary tamin'ny lalan'i Jeroboama, zanak'i Nebata, izay nampanota ny Isiraely;ary nanompo an'i Bala izy, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nampahatezitra an'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, tahaka izay rehetra nataon-drainy.

⁵⁴ary nanompo an'i Bala izy, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nampahatezitra an'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, tahaka izay rehetra nataon-drainy.
