¹Kolm aastat elati nõnda, et Süüria ja Iisraeli vahel ei olnud sõda.

¹They continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.

²Aga kolmandal aastal läks Juuda kuningas Joosafat Iisraeli kuninga juurde.

²It happened in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.

³Ja Iisraeli kuningas ütles oma sulastele: 'Te ju teate, et Gileadi Raamot on meie oma, aga meie ei tee midagi, et võtta see ära Süüria kuninga käest!'

³The king of Israel said to his servants, “You know that Ramoth Gilead is ours, and we are still, and don’t take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?”

⁴Ja ta küsis Joosafatilt: 'Kas tuled koos minuga sõtta Gileadi Raamoti pärast?' Ja Joosafat vastas Iisraeli kuningale: 'Nagu sina, nõnda mina, nagu sinu rahvas, nõnda minu rahvas, nagu sinu hobused, nõnda minu hobused.'

⁴He said to Jehoshaphat, “Will you go with me to battle to Ramoth Gilead?” Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”

⁵Aga Joosafat ütles Iisraeli kuningale: 'Küsi ometi enne Issanda sõna!'

⁵Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “Please inquire first for the word of Yahweh.”

⁶Siis Iisraeli kuningas kogus kokku prohvetid, ligi nelisada meest, ja küsis neilt: 'Kas ma võin minna sõdima Gileadi Raamoti vastu või pean loobuma?' Ja nad vastasid: 'Mine, ja Issand annab selle kuninga kätte!'

⁶Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, “Shall I go against Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I forbear?” They said, “Go up; for the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.”

⁷Aga Joosafat küsis: 'Kas ei ole siin veel mõnda Issanda prohvetit, et saaksime temalt küsida?'

⁷But Jehoshaphat said, “Isn’t there here a prophet of Yahweh, that we may inquire of him?”

⁸Ja Iisraeli kuningas vastas Joosafatile: 'On küll veel üks mees, kellelt saaks küsida Issanda nõu. Aga mina vihkan teda, sest ta ei kuuluta mulle head, küll aga halba. See on Miika, Jimla poeg.' Aga Joosafat ütles: 'Kuningas ärgu rääkigu nõnda!'

⁸The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Yahweh, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him; for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil.” Jehoshaphat said, “Don’t let the king say so.”

⁹Siis Iisraeli kuningas kutsus ühe hoovkondlase ja ütles: 'Kähku siia Miika, Jimla poeg!'

⁹Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, “Quickly get Micaiah the son of Imlah.”

¹⁰Iisraeli kuningas ja Juuda kuningas Joosafat istusid kumbki oma aujärjel, mantlid seljas, rehepeksu väljakul Samaaria värava suus, ja kõik prohvetid kuulutasid nende ees.

¹⁰Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.

¹¹Sidkija, Kenaana poeg, oli teinud enesele raudsarved ja ütles: 'Nõnda ütleb Issand: Nendega pead sa puskima süürlasi, kuni nad on hävitatud!'

¹¹Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron, and said, “Thus says Yahweh, ‘With these you shall push the Syrians, until they are consumed.’”

¹²Ja kõik prohvetid kuulutasid sedasama ning ütlesid: 'Mine Gileadi Raamotisse ja see õnnestub sul, sest Issand annab selle kuninga kätte!'

¹²All the prophets prophesied so, saying, “Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper; for Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king.”

¹³Ja käskjalg, kes oli läinud Miikat kutsuma, rääkis temaga ning ütles: 'Vaata ometi, prohvetite sõnad on nagu ühest suust kuningale head; olgu siis sinugi sõnad nagu ühel nende hulgast ja räägi head!'

¹³The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, “See now, the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth. Please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak good.”

¹⁴Aga Miika vastas: 'Nii tõesti kui Issand elab, mina räägin, mis Issand mulle ütleb.'

¹⁴Micaiah said, “As Yahweh lives, what Yahweh says to me, that I will speak.”

¹⁵Ja kui ta tuli kuninga juurde, siis ütles kuningas temale: 'Miika! Kas me võime minna sõdima Gileadi vastu või peame loobuma?' Ja ta vastas temale: 'Mine, ja see õnnestub sul, sest Issand annab selle kuninga kätte!'

¹⁵When he had come to the king, the king said to him, “Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall we forbear?” He answered him, “Go up and prosper; and Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king.”

¹⁶Aga kuningas ütles temale: 'Mitu korda ma pean sind vannutama, et sa ei räägiks mulle muud kui ainult tõtt Issanda nimel?'

¹⁶The king said to him, “How many times do I have to adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?”

¹⁷Siis ta ütles: 'Ma nägin kogu Iisraeli hajali olevat mägedel nagu lambad, kellel ei ole karjast. Ja Issand ütles: Neil pole isandaid. Igaüks pöördugu rahuga koju!'

¹⁷He said, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. Yahweh said, ‘These have no master. Let them each return to his house in peace.’”

¹⁸Siis ütles Iisraeli kuningas Joosafatile: 'Eks ma öelnud sulle, et ta ei kuuluta mulle head, küll aga halba!'

¹⁸The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Didn’t I tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?”

¹⁹Aga Miika ütles: 'Seepärast kuule Issanda sõna! Ma nägin Issandat istuvat oma aujärjel ja kogu taeva sõjaväe seisvat ta juures temast paremal ja vasakul pool.

¹⁹Micaiah said, “Therefore hear the word of Yahweh. I saw Yahweh sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left.

²⁰Ja Issand ütles: Kes tahaks ahvatleda Ahabit, et ta läheks ja langeks Gileadi Raamotis? Siis rääkis üks nii ja teine rääkis naa.

²⁰Yahweh said, ‘Who shall entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?’ One said one thing; and another said another.

²¹Aga üks vaim tuli ja seisis Issanda ees ning ütles: Mina ahvatlen teda! Ja Issand küsis temalt: Kuidas?

²¹A spirit came out and stood before Yahweh, and said, ‘I will entice him.’

²²Ja ta vastas: Ma lähen ja olen valevaim kõigi ta prohvetite suus. Siis ütles Issand: Sina oled ahvatleja ja küllap sa suudad. Mine ja tee nõnda!

²²Yahweh said to him, ‘How?’ He said, ‘I will go out and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ He said, ‘You will entice him, and will also prevail. Go out and do so.’

²³Ja nüüd, vaata, Issand on pannud valevaimu kõigi nende sinu prohvetite suhu ja Issand on kuulutanud sulle halba.'

²³Now therefore, behold, Yahweh has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and Yahweh has spoken evil concerning you.”

²⁴Siis astus ligi Sidkija, Kenaana poeg, ja lõi Miikat põse pihta ning küsis: 'Missugust teed on Issanda Vaim minust läinud sinusse rääkima?'

²⁴Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, “Which way did the Spirit of Yahweh go from me to speak to you?”

²⁵Ja Miika vastas: 'Vaata, sa näed seda päeval, kui sa pead minema kambrist kambrisse, et ennast peita!'

²⁵Micaiah said, “Behold, you will see on that day, when you go into an inner room to hide yourself.”

²⁶Siis ütles Iisraeli kuningas: 'Võta Miika ja vii ta tagasi linnapealik Aamoni ja kuningapoeg Joase juurde

²⁶The king of Israel said, “Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king’s son.

²⁷ning ütle: Nõnda ütleb kuningas: Pange ta vangikotta ja toitke teda hädapäraselt leiva ja veega, kuni ma rahuga tagasi tulen!'

²⁷Say, ‘Thus says 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.”’”

²⁸Aga Miika ütles: 'Kui sa tõesti rahuga tagasi tuled, siis ei ole Issand minu läbi rääkinud.' Ja ta ütles veel: 'Kuulge, kõik rahvad!'

²⁸Micaiah said, “If you return at all in peace, Yahweh has not spoken by me.” He said, “Listen, all you people!”

²⁹Ja Iisraeli kuningas ja Juuda kuningas Joosafat läksid üles Gileadi Raamotisse.

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

³⁰Ja Iisraeli kuningas ütles Joosafatile: 'Mina panen sõtta minnes teised riided selga, aga sina kanna oma riideid!' Ja Iisraeli kuningas pani teised riided selga ning läks sõtta.

³⁰The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but you put on your robes.” The king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.

³¹Aga Süüria kuningas oli andnud käsu sõjavankrite pealikuile, neid oli tal kolmkümmend kaks, ja oli öelnud: 'Ärge tapelge mitte ühegi muu, vähema või suurema vastu kui üksnes Iisraeli kuninga vastu!'

³¹Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.

³²Kui siis sõjavankrite pealikud nägid Joosafatti, ütlesid nad: 'See on kindlasti Iisraeli kuningas.' Ja nad pöördusid tema vastu sõdima. Siis Joosafat hakkas kisendama.

³²It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, “Surely that is the king of Israel!” and they turned aside to fight against him. Jehoshaphat cried out.

³³Kui sõjavankrite pealikud nägid, et see ei olnudki Iisraeli kuningas, siis nad pöördusid tagasi tema järelt.

³³It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.

³⁴Aga keegi mees, kes oli huupi oma ammu vinna tõmmanud, tabas Iisraeli kuningat rihmade ja soomustuse vahele. Siis kuningas ütles oma sõjavankri juhile: 'Pööra ümber ja vii mind võitlusest välja, sest ma olen haavatud!'

³⁴A certain man drew his bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of his chariot, “Turn your hand, and carry me out of the battle; for I am severely wounded.”

³⁵Kuid taplus ägenes sel päeval üha ja kuningas pidi jääma vankrisse süürlaste vastu, aga õhtul ta suri; ja haavast oli veri voolanud vankri põhja.

³⁵The battle increased that day. The king was propped up in his chariot facing the Syrians, and died at evening. The blood ran out of the wound into the bottom of the chariot.

³⁶Päikeseloojakul käis hädakisa läbi leeri. Öeldi: 'Iga mees oma linna! Iga mees oma maale!'

³⁶A cry went throughout the army about the going down of the sun, saying, “Every man to his city, and every man to his country!”

³⁷Nõnda suri kuningas ja viidi Samaariasse; ja kuningas maeti Samaariasse.

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

³⁸Ja kui vankrit loputati Samaaria tiigi ääres, siis lakkusid koerad tema verd ja hoorad pesid end selles, nagu oli olnud Issanda sõna, mis ta oli öelnud.

³⁸They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood where the prostitutes washed themselves; according to the word of Yahweh which he spoke.

³⁹Ja mis veel tuleks öelda Ahabist ja kõigest, mis ta tegi, ja elevandiluukojast, mille ta ehitas, ja kõigist linnadest, mis ta ehitas, eks sellest ole kirjutatud Iisraeli kuningate Ajaraamatus?

³⁹Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

⁴⁰Ja Ahab läks magama oma vanemate juurde ja tema poeg Ahasja sai tema asemel kuningaks.

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

⁴¹Joosafat, Aasa poeg, sai Juuda kuningaks Iisraeli kuninga Ahabi neljandal aastal.

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

⁴²Joosafat oli kuningaks saades kolmkümmend viis aastat vana, ja ta valitses Jeruusalemmas kakskümmend viis aastat; ta ema nimi oli Asuuba, Silhi tütar.

⁴²Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.

⁴³Ta käis täiesti oma isa Aasa teed, sellelt ta ei lahkunud, tehes, mis õige oli Issanda silmis.

⁴³He walked in all the way of Asa his father; He didn’t turn aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh: however the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

⁴⁴Aga ohvrikünkad ei kadunud, rahvas ohverdas ja suitsutas veelgi ohvriküngastel.

⁴⁴Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.

⁴⁵Ja Joosafat tegi Iisraeli kuningaga rahu.

⁴⁵Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he showed, and how he warred, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

⁴⁶Ja mis veel tuleks öelda Joosafatist ja tema vägitegudest, mis ta tegi, ja kuidas ta sõdis, eks sellest ole kirjutatud Juuda kuningate Ajaraamatus?

⁴⁶The remnant of the sodomites, that remained in the days of his father Asa, he put away out of the land.

⁴⁷Ja pühamu viimased pordumehed, kes tema isa Aasa päevil olid alles jäänud, pühkis ta maalt.

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

⁴⁸Edomis ei olnud kuningat; kuningaks oli asevalitseja.

⁴⁸Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold: but they didn’t go; for the ships were broken at Ezion Geber.

⁴⁹Joosafat oli teinud Tarsise laevu, mis pidid minema Oofirisse kulla järele, ent need ei läinud, sest laevad hukkusid Esjon-Geberis.

⁴⁹Then Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants go with your servants in the ships.” But Jehoshaphat would not.

⁵⁰Siis ütles Ahasja, Ahabi poeg, Joosafatile: 'Lase minu sulased lähevad koos sinu sulastega laevadesse!' Aga Joosafat ei tahtnud.

⁵⁰Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father; Jehoram his son reigned in his place.

⁵¹Ja Joosafat läks magama oma vanemate juurde ja ta maeti oma vanemate juurde ta isa Taaveti linna. Ja tema poeg Jooram sai tema asemel kuningaks.

⁵¹Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel.

⁵²Ahasja, Ahabi poeg, sai Samaarias Iisraeli kuningaks Juuda kuninga Joosafati seitsmeteistkümnendal aastal, ja ta valitses Iisraelis kaks aastat.

⁵²He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, 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, in which he made Israel to sin.

⁵³Tema tegi kurja Issanda silmis ning käis oma isa ja ema teed, ja Nebati poja Jerobeami teed, kes Iisraeli oli saatnud pattu tegema.

⁵³He served Baal, and worshiped him, and provoked to anger Yahweh, the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.

⁵⁴Tema teenis Baali ja kummardas teda ning vihastas Issandat, Iisraeli Jumalat, täiesti nagu tema isa oli teinud.
