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

¹In tri leta so bivali v miru, da ni bilo vojske med Sirijo in Izraelom.

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

²In zgodi se v tretjem letu, da pride Josafat, kralj Judov, doli h kralju Izraelovemu.

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?

³In reče kralj Izraelov služabnikom svojim: Ne veste li, da je Ramot v Gileadu naš? In mi mirujemo in ga ne vzamemo iz roke sirskega kralja?

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.

⁴In reče Josafatu: Pojdeš li z menoj v boj proti Ramotu v Gileadu? Josafat odgovori kralju Izraelovemu: Bodem naj kakor ti, ljudstvo moje kakor ljudstvo tvoje, konji moji kakor konji tvoji!

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

⁵Še reče Josafat kralju Izraelovemu: Vprašaj, prosim, danes besedo GOSPODOVO!

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.

⁶Tedaj skliče kralj Izraelov proroke, okoli štiristo mož, pa jih vpraša: Naj li grem v boj proti Ramotu v Gileadu ali naj to opustim? Odgovore: Pojdi gori, in Gospod ga da v roko kraljevo!

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

⁷Josafat pa reče: Ni li sicer nobenega GOSPODOVEGA proroka tu, da bi ga povprašali?

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.

⁸In kralj Izraelov reče Josafatu: Še en mož je, po katerem moremo vprašati GOSPODA, Mihaj, sin Imlov; ali jaz ga sovražim, zakaj ne prorokuje mi dobrega, nego zgolj hudo. Josafat reče: Ne govóri tako, kralj!

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

⁹Tedaj pokliče kralj Izraelov enega dvornika in veli: Hitro pripelji sem Mihaja, sina Imlovega!

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.

¹⁰Kralj Izraelov in Josafat, kralj Judov, pa sta sedela vsak na svojem prestolu, po kraljevsko oblečena, na trgu pri vhodu v vrata Samarije, in vsi proroki so prorokovali pred njima.

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.

¹¹In Zedekija, sin Kenaanov, si je naredil železne rogove in govoril: Tako pravi GOSPOD: S temi boš bodel Sirce, dokler jih celo ne zatareš!

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

¹²Tudi vsi proroki so prorokovali tako in govorili: Pojdi proti Ramotu v Gileadu in srečno hodi, in GOSPOD ga da kralju v roko!

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.

¹³Sel pa, ki je šel poklicat Mihaja, mu govori in reče: Glej vendar: besede prorokov oznanjajo soglasno kralju dobro; bodi torej beseda tvoja kakor beseda enega izmed njih, in govóri dobro!

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

¹⁴In Mihaj reče: Kakor res živi GOSPOD, kar mi poreče GOSPOD, bom govoril.

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.

¹⁵In ko pride h kralju, mu reče kralj: Mihaj, ali naj gremo v boj proti Ramotu v Gileadu ali naj opustimo? Odgovori: Pojdi in srečno hodi! GOSPOD ga da kralju v roko.

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?

¹⁶Kralj mu pa veli: Kolikokrat mi te je rotiti, da mi ne govoriš ničesar nego resnico v imenu GOSPODOVEM?

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.

¹⁷In reče: Videl sem vse Izraelce razkropljene po gorah kakor ovce, ki nimajo pastirja; in GOSPOD je dejal: Ti nimajo gospodarja! Vsak naj se vrne domov v miru!

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

¹⁸Nato reče kralj Izraelov Josafatu: Nisem ti li rekel, da mi ne prorokuje nič dobrega, nego zgolj hudo?

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.

¹⁹On reče: Zatorej čuj besedo GOSPODOVO! Videl sem GOSPODA, da sedi na prestolu svojem, in vso vojsko nebeško, da mu stoji ob desnici in ob levici.

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.

²⁰In GOSPOD je vprašal: Kdo premoti Ahaba, da bi šel gori in padel pri Ramotu v Gileadu? In ta je rekel to in drugi je rekel ono.

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

²¹Tedaj pride duh in se postavi pred GOSPODA in reče: Jaz ga premotim!

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.

²²In GOSPOD ga vpraša: S čim? Odgovori: Pojdem tja in bodem lažniv duh v ustih vseh prorokov njegovih. In veli: Ti ga premotiš in se ti posreči. Pojdi tja in stóri tako!

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.

²³Sedaj torej glej, GOSPOD je dal lažnivega duha v usta vseh teh prorokov tvojih, a GOSPOD je govoril hudo zoper tebe!

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?

²⁴Tedaj pristopi Zedekija, sin Kenaanov, in udari Mihaja v lice in reče: Kod je šel duh GOSPODOV od mene, da s tabo govori?

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

²⁵Mihaj odvrne: Glej, videl boš tisti dan, ko boš hodil iz hrama v hram, da se skriješ!

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;

²⁶Kralj Izraelov pa veli: Vzemi Mihaja in ga pelji nazaj k Amonu, mestnemu poglavarju, in k Joasu, sinu kraljevemu,

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.

²⁷pa reci: Tako pravi kralj: Denita tega moža v ječo in živita ga s kruhom bridkosti in z vodo stiske, dokler se ne vrnem v miru!

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.

²⁸A Mihaj reče: Ako se vrneš v miru, ni govoril po meni GOSPOD! Še reče: Čujte, vsi ljudje!

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

²⁹Nato sta šla kralj Izraelov in Josafat, kralj Judov, gori proti Ramotu v Gileadu.

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.

³⁰In kralj Izraelov reče Josafatu: Jaz pojdem preoblečen v boj, ti pa obleci svoja oblačila! Preobleče se torej kralj Izraelov in gre v boj.

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.

³¹Kralj sirski pa je zapovedal dvaintridesetim poveljnikom svojih voz, rekoč: Ne bojujte se zoper male, ne zoper velike, ampak zgolj zoper kralja Izraelovega!

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.

³²Ko torej vidijo poveljniki vozov Josafata, reko: Gotovo je on kralj Izraelov! In zaženo se bojevat zoper njega; in zavpije Josafat.

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.

³³Ko pa vidijo poveljniki voz, da ni kralj Izraelov, se obrnejo od njega.

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.

³⁴Neki mož pa slučajno napne lok in ustreli kralja Izraelovega med stike v oklepu. Tedaj veli svojemu vozniku: Obrni voz in pelji me z bojišča, kajti hudo sem ranjen.

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.

³⁵A bitka se je razvnela tisti dan, in kralj je moral stati na vozu Sircem nasproti, in zvečer je umrl; in kri je tekla iz rane na dno voza.

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.

³⁶In ko je solnce zahajalo, je šel klic po taborišču: Vsak pojdi v mesto svoje in v kraj svoj,

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

³⁷ker kralj je mrtev! In pripeljali so ga v Samarijo in pokopali v Samariji.

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.

³⁸In ko so omivali voz pri samarijskem ribniku, so lizali psi kri njegovo in nečistnice so se omivale ž njo po besedi GOSPODOVI, ki jo je bil govoril.

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?

³⁹In druge zgodbe Ahabove in vse, kar je storil, in slonokoščena hiša, ki jo je postavil, in vsa mesta, ki jih je sezidal, ni li zapisano v knjigi letopisov kraljev Izraelovih?

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

⁴⁰Tako je legel Ahab k očetom svojim, in Ahazija, sin njegov, je zakraljeval na mestu njegovem.

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

⁴¹In Josafat, sin Asov, je zakraljeval nad Judom v četrtem letu Ahaba, kralja Izraelovega.

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.

⁴²Josafat pa je bil petintrideset let star, ko je zakraljeval, in vladal je petindvajset let v Jeruzalemu. In materi njegovi je bilo ime Azuba, hči Silhijeva.

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.

⁴³In hodil je po vsej poti Asa, očeta svojega; ni se ganil od nje in je delal, kar je bilo prav v očeh GOSPODOVIH. [22:44] Toda višave niso bile odpravljene, ljudstvo je še darovalo in žgalo kadilo na višavah.

⁴⁴And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.

⁴⁴[22:45] In Josafat je imel mir s kraljem Izraelovim.

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?

⁴⁵[22:46] Druge pa zgodbe Josafatove in hrabrost njegova, ki jo je dokazal, in kako se je bojeval, ni li pisano v knjigi letopisov kraljev Judovih?

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

⁴⁶[22:47] On je tudi spravil iz dežele ostanke nečistoti posvečenih moških, ki so preostali v dneh Asa, očeta njegovega.

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

⁴⁷[22:48] V Edomu pa ni bilo kralja, namestnik je vladal.

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

⁴⁸[22:49] In Josafat je napravil tarske ladje, ki naj bi šle v Ofir po zlato; a niso šle, ker so se razbile v Ezion-geberju.

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

⁴⁹[22:50] Tedaj je rekel Ahazija, sin Ahabov, Josafatu: Peljejo naj se hlapci moji na ladjah s hlapci tvojimi! A Josafat ni hotel.

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.

⁵⁰[22:51] In Josafat je legel k očetom svojim, in pokopali so ga pri očetih njegovih v mestu Davida, očeta njegovega. In Joram, sin njegov, je zakraljeval na mestu njegovem.

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.

⁵¹[22:52] Ahazija, sin Ahabov, je zakraljeval nad Izraelom v Samariji v sedemnajstem letu Josafata, kralja Judovega, in je vladal Izraelu dve leti

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:

⁵²[22:53] in delal, kar je bilo hudo v očeh GOSPODOVIH, hodeč po poti očeta svojega in po poti matere svoje in po poti Jeroboama, sinu Nebatovega, ki je zapeljeval Izraela v greh.[22:54] In služil je Baalu in se mu poklanjal in dražil v jezo GOSPODA, Boga Izraelovega, po vsem, kakor je bil delal oče njegov.

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

⁵³[22:54] In služil je Baalu in se mu poklanjal in dražil v jezo GOSPODA, Boga Izraelovega, po vsem, kakor je bil delal oče njegov.
