1 KINGS 22

ملوك اول 22

1  Now three years passed without war between Syria and Israel.

1  وَأَقَامُوا ثَلاَثَ سِنِينٍَ بِدُونِ حَرْبٍ بَيْنَ أَرَامَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ.

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

2  وَفِي السَّنَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ نَزَلَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا إِلَى مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

3  And the king of Israel said to his servants, "Do you know that Ramoth in Gilead is ours, but we hesitate to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?"

3  فَقَالَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِعَبِيدِهِ: [أَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَامُوتَ جِلْعَادَ لَنَا وَنَحْنُ سَاكِتُونَ عَنْ أَخْذِهَا مِنْ يَدِ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ؟]

4  So he said to Jehoshaphat, "Will you go with me to fight at Ramoth Gilead?" Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses."

4  وَقَالَ لِيَهُوشَافَاطَ: [أَتَذْهَبُ مَعِي لِلْحَرْبِ إِلَى رَامُوتَ جِلْعَادَ؟] فَقَالَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ لِمَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: [مَثَلِي مَثَلُكَ. شَعْبِي كَشَعْبِكَ وَخَيْلِي كَخَيْلِكَ].

5  Also Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "Please inquire for the word of the Lord today."

5  ثُمَّ قَالَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ لِمَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: [اسْأَلِ الْيَوْمَ عَنْ كَلاَمِ الرَّبِّ].

6  Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall I go against Ramoth Gilead to fight, or shall I refrain?" So they said, "Go up, for the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king."

6  فَجَمَعَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الأَنْبِيَاءَ، نَحْوَ أَرْبَعِ مِئَةِ رَجُلٍ وَسَأَلَهُمْ: [أَأَذْهَبُ إِلَى رَامُوتَ جِلْعَادَ لِلْقِتَالِ أَمْ أَمْتَنِعُ؟] فَقَالُوا: [اصْعَدْ فَيَدْفَعَهَا السَّيِّدُ لِيَدِ الْمَلِكِ].

7  And Jehoshaphat said, "Is there not still a prophet of the Lord here, that we may inquire of Him?"

7  فَسَأَلَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ: [أَمَا يُوجَدُ هُنَا بَعْدُ نَبِيٌّ لِلرَّبِّ فَنَسْأَلَ مِنْهُ؟]

8  So the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is still one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may inquire of the Lord; but I hate him, because he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil." And Jehoshaphat said, "Let not the king say such things!"

8  فَقَالَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَهُوشَافَاطَ: [يُوجَدُ بَعْدُ رَجُلٌ وَاحِدٌ لِسُؤَالِ الرَّبِّ بِهِ، وَلَكِنِّي أُبْغِضُهُ لأَنَّهُ لاَ يَتَنَبَّأُ عَلَيَّ خَيْراً بَلْ شَرّاً، وَهُوَ مِيخَا بْنُ يَمْلَةَ]. فَقَالَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ: [لاَ يَقُلِ الْمَلِكُ هَكَذَا].

9  Then the king of Israel called an officer and said, "Bring Micaiah the son of Imlah quickly!"

9  فَدَعَا مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ خَصِيّاً وَقَالَ: [أَسْرِعْ إِلَيَّ بِمِيخَا بْنِ يَمْلَةَ].

10  The king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, having put on their robes, sat each on his throne, at a threshing floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.

10  وَكَانَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوشَافَاطُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا جَالِسَيْنِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ، لاَبِسَيْنِ ثِيَابَهُمَا فِي سَاحَةٍ عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ بَابِ السَّامِرَةِ، وَجَمِيعُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ أَمَامَهُمَا.

11  Now Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made horns of iron for himself; and he said, "Thus says the Lord: 'With these you shall gore the Syrians until they are destroyed.' "

11  وَعَمِلَ صِدْقِيَّا بْنُ كَنْعَنَةَ لِنَفْسِهِ قَرْنَيْ حَدِيدٍ وَقَالَ: [هَكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ: بِهَذِهِ تَنْطَحُ الأَرَامِيِّينَ حَتَّى يَفْنُوا].

12  And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, "Go up to Ramoth Gilead and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the king's hand."

12  وَتَنَبَّأَ جَمِيعُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ قَائِلِينَ: [اصْعَدْ إِلَى رَامُوتَ جِلْعَادَ وَأَفْلِحْ، فَيَدْفَعَهَا الرَّبُّ لِيَدِ الْمَلِكِ].

13  Then the messenger who had gone to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, "Now listen, the words of the prophets with one accord encourage the king. Please, let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak encouragement."

13  وَأَمَّا الرَّسُولُ الَّذِي ذَهَبَ لِيَدْعُوَ مِيخَا فَقَالَ لَهُ: [هُوَذَا كَلاَمُ جَمِيعِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ بِفَمٍ وَاحِدٍ خَيْرٌ لِلْمَلِكِ، فَلْيَكُنْ كَلاَمُكَ مِثْلَ كَلاَمِ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ، وَتَكَلَّمْ بِخَيْرٍ].

14  And Micaiah said, "As the Lord lives, whatever the Lord says to me, that I will speak."

14  فَقَالَ مِيخَا: [حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِنَّ مَا يَقُولُهُ لِيَ الرَّبُّ بِهِ أَتَكَلَّمُ].

15  Then he came to the king; and the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or shall we refrain?" And he answered him, "Go and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king!"

15  وَلَمَّا أَتَى إِلَى الْمَلِكِ سَأَلَهُ الْمَلِكُ: [يَا مِيخَا، أَنَصْعَدُ إِلَى رَامُوتَ جِلْعَادَ لِلْقِتَالِ أَمْ نَمْتَنِعُ؟] فَقَالَ لَهُ: [اصْعَدْ وَأَفْلِحْ فَيَدْفَعَهَا الرَّبُّ لِيَدِ الْمَلِكِ].

16  So the king said to him, "How many times shall I make you swear that you tell me nothing but the truth in the name of the Lord?"

16  فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمَلِكُ: [كَمْ مَرَّةٍ اسْتَحْلَفْتُكَ أَنْ لاَ تَقُولَ لِي إِلاَّ الْحَقَّ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ].

17  Then he said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. And the Lord said, 'These have no master. Let each return to his house in peace.' "

17  فَقَالَ: [رَأَيْتُ كُلَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مُشَتَّتِينَ عَلَى الْجِبَالِ كَخِرَافٍ لاَ رَاعِيَ لَهَا. فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: [لَيْسَ لِهَؤُلاَءِ أَصْحَابٌ، فَلْيَرْجِعُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ بِسَلاَمٍ].

18  And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?"

18  فَقَالَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَهُوشَافَاطَ: [أَمَا قُلْتُ لَكَ إِنَّهُ لاَ يَتَنَبَّأُ عَلَيَّ خَيْراً بَلْ شَرّاً؟]

19  Then Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by, on His right hand and on His left.

19  وَقَالَ: [فَاسْمَعْ إِذاً كَلاَمَ الرَّبِّ: قَدْ رَأَيْتُ الرَّبَّ جَالِساً عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ، وَكُلُّ جُنْدِ السَّمَاءِ وُقُوفٌ لَدَيْهِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ.

20  And the Lord said, 'Who will persuade Ahab to go up, that he may fall at Ramoth Gilead?' So one spoke in this manner, and another spoke in that manner.

20  فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: مَنْ يُغْوِي أَخْآبَ فَيَصْعَدَ وَيَسْقُطَ فِي رَامُوتَ جِلْعَادَ؟ فَقَالَ هَذَا هَكَذَا وَقَالَ ذَاكَ هَكَذَا.

21  Then a spirit came forward and stood before the Lord, and said, 'I will persuade him.'

21  ثُمَّ خَرَجَ الرُّوحُ وَوَقَفَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: أَنَا أُغْوِيهِ. وَسَأَلَهُ الرَّبُّ: بِمَاذَا؟

22  The Lord said to him, 'In what way?' So he said, 'I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' And the Lord said, 'You shall persuade him, and also prevail. Go out and do so.'

22  فَقَالَ: أَخْرُجُ وَأَكُونُ رُوحَ كَذِبٍ فِي أَفْوَاهِ جَمِيعِ أَنْبِيَائِهِ. فَقَالَ: إِنَّكَ تُغْوِيهِ وَتَقْتَدِرُ. فَاخْرُجْ وَافْعَلْ هَكَذَا.

23  Therefore look! The Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these prophets of yours, and the Lord has declared disaster against you."

23  وَالآنَ هُوَذَا قَدْ جَعَلَ الرَّبُّ رُوحَ كَذِبٍ فِي أَفْوَاهِ جَمِيعِ أَنْبِيَائِكَ هَؤُلاَءِ، وَالرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمَ عَلَيْكَ بِشَرٍّ].

24  Now Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, "Which way did the spirit from the Lord go from me to speak to you?"

24  فَتَقَدَّمَ صِدْقِيَّا بْنُ كَنْعَنَةَ وَضَرَبَ مِيخَا عَلَى الْفَكِّ وَقَالَ: [مِنْ أَيْنَ عَبَرَ رُوحُ الرَّبِّ مِنِّي لِيُكَلِّمَكَ؟]

25  And Micaiah said, "Indeed, you shall see on that day when you go into an inner chamber to hide!"

25  فَقَالَ مِيخَا: [إِنَّكَ سَتَرَى فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي تَدْخُلُ فِيهِ مِنْ مِخْدَعٍ إِلَى مِخْدَعٍ لِتَخْتَبِئَ].

26  So the king of Israel said, "Take Micaiah, and return him to Amon the governor of the city and to Joash the king's son;

26  فَقَالَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: [خُذْ مِيخَا وَرُدَّهُ إِلَى آمُونَ رَئِيسِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَإِلَى يُوآشَ ابْنِ الْمَلِكِ،

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

27  وَقُلْ هَكَذَا قَالَ الْمَلِكُ: ضَعُوا هَذَا فِي السِّجْنِ، وَأَطْعِمُوهُ خُبْزَ الضِّيقِ وَمَاءَ الضِّيقِ حَتَّى آتِيَ بِسَلاَمٍ].

28  But Micaiah said, "If you ever return in peace, the Lord has not spoken by me." And he said, "Take heed, all you people!"

28  فَقَالَ مِيخَا: [إِنْ رَجَعْتَ بِسَلاَمٍ فَلَمْ يَتَكَلَّمِ الرَّبُّ بِي]. وَقَالَ: [اسْمَعُوا أَيُّهَا الشَّعْبُ أَجْمَعُونَ].

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

29  فَصَعِدَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوشَافَاطُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا إِلَى رَامُوتَ جِلْعَادَ.

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

30  فَقَالَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَهُوشَافَاطَ: [إِنِّي أَتَنَكَّرُ وَأَدْخُلُ الْحَرْبَ، وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَالْبَسْ ثِيَابَكَ]. فَتَنَكَّرَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَدَخَلَ الْحَرْبَ.

31  Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, "Fight with no one small or great, but only with the king of Israel."

31  وَأَمَرَ مَلِكُ أَرَامَ رُؤَسَاءَ الْمَرْكَبَاتِ الَّتِي لَهُ، الاِثْنَيْنِ وَالثَّلاَثِينَ، وَقَالَ: [لاَ تُحَارِبُوا صَغِيراً وَلاَ كَبِيراً إِلاَّ مَلِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَحْدَهُ].

32  So it was, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, "Surely it is the king of Israel!" Therefore they turned aside to fight against him, and Jehoshaphat cried out.

32  فَلَمَّا رَأَى رُؤَسَاءُ الْمَرْكَبَاتِ يَهُوشَافَاطَ: [قَالُوا إِنَّهُ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ] فَمَالُوا عَلَيْهِ لِيُقَاتِلُوهُ، فَصَرَخَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ.

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

33  فَلَمَّا رَأَى رُؤَسَاءُ الْمَرْكَبَاتِ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مَلِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ رَجَعُوا عَنْهُ.

34  Now a certain man drew a bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. So he said to the driver of his chariot, "Turn around and take me out of the battle, for I am wounded."

34  وَإِنَّ رَجُلاً نَزَعَ فِي قَوْسِهِ غَيْرَ مُتَعَمِّدٍ وَضَرَبَ مَلِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَيْنَ أَوْصَالِ الدِّرْعِ. فَقَالَ لِمُدِيرِ مَرْكَبَتِهِ: [رُدَّ يَدَكَ وَأَخْرِجْنِي مِنَ الْجَيْشِ لأَنِّي قَدْ جُرِحْتُ].

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

35  وَاشْتَدَّ الْقِتَالُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَأُوقِفَ الْمَلِكُ فِي مَرْكَبَتِهِ مُقَابِلَ أَرَامَ وَمَاتَ عِنْدَ الْمَسَاءِ، وَجَرَى دَمُ الْجُرْحِ إِلَى حِضْنِ الْمَرْكَبَةِ.

36  Then, as the sun was going down, a shout went throughout the army, saying, "Every man to his city, and every man to his own country!"

36  وَعَبَرَ النِّدَاءُ فِي الْجُنْدِ عِنْدَ غُرُوبِ الشَّمْسِ قَائِلاً: [كُلُّ رَجُلٍ إِلَى مَدِينَتِهِ، وَكُلُّ رَجُلٍ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ].

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

37  فَمَاتَ الْمَلِكُ وَأُدْخِلَ السَّامِرَةَ فَدَفَنُوا الْمَلِكَ فِي السَّامِرَةِ.

38  Then someone washed the chariot at a pool in Samaria, and the dogs licked up his blood while the harlots bathed, according to the word of the Lord which He had spoken.

38  وَغُسِلَتِ الْمَرْكَبَةُ فِي بِرْكَةِ السَّامِرَةِ فَلَحَسَتِ الْكِلاَبُ دَمَهُ. وَغَسَلُوا سِلاَحَهُ. حَسَبَ كَلاَمِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ.

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

39  وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ أَخْآبَ وَكُلُّ مَا فَعَلَ، وَبَيْتُ الْعَاجِ الَّذِي بَنَاهُ وَكُلُّ الْمُدُنِ الَّتِي بَنَاهَا مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ الأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

40  So Ahab rested with his fathers. Then Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.

40  فَاضْطَجَعَ أَخْآبُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَمَلَكَ أَخَزْيَا ابْنُهُ عِوَضاً عَنْهُ.

41  Jehoshaphat the son of Asa had become king over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.

41  وَمَلَكَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ بْنُ آسَا عَلَى يَهُوذَا فِي السَّنَةِ الرَّابِعَةِ لأَخْآبَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

42  Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.

42  وَكَانَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ ابْنَ خَمْسٍ وَثَلاَثِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ خَمْساً وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَاسْمُ أُمِّهِ عَزُوبَةُ بِنْتُ شَلْحِي.

43  And he walked in all the ways of his father Asa. He did not turn aside from them, doing what was right in the eyes of the Lord. Nevertheless the high places were not taken away, for the people offered sacrifices and burned incense on the high places.

43  وَسَارَ فِي كُلِّ طَرِيقِ آسَا أَبِيهِ. لَمْ يَحِدْ عَنْهَا، إِذْ عَمِلَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ. إِلاَّ أَنَّ الْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ لَمْ تَنْتَزِعْ، بَلْ كَانَ الشَّعْبُ لاَ يَزَالُ يَذْبَحُ وَيُوقِدُ عَلَى الْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ.

44  Also Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.

44  وَصَالَحَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ مَلِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

45  Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, the might that he showed, and how he made war, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

45  وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ يَهُوشَافَاطَ وَجَبَرُوتُهُ الَّذِي أَظْهَرَهُ، وَكَيْفَ حَارَبَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ الأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا.

46  And the rest of the perverted persons, who remained in the days of his father Asa, he banished from the land.

46  وَبَقِيَّةُ الْمَأْبُونِينَ الَّذِينَ بَقُوا فِي أَيَّامِ آسَا أَبِيهِ أَبَادَهُمْ مِنَ الأَرْضِ.

47  There was then no king in Edom, only a deputy of the king.

47  وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِي أَدُومَ مَلِكٌ. مَلَكَ وَكِيلٌ.

48  Jehoshaphat made merchant ships to go to Ophir for gold; but they never sailed, for the ships were wrecked at Ezion Geber.

48  وَعَمِلَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ سُفُنَ تَرْشِيشَ لِتَذْهَبَ إِلَى أُوفِيرَ لأَجْلِ الذَّهَبِ فَلَمْ تَذْهَبْ، لأَنَّ السُّفُنَ تَكَسَّرَتْ فِي عِصْيُونَ جَابِرَ.

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

49  حِينَئِذٍ قَالَ أَخَزْيَا بْنُ أَخْآبَ لِيَهُوشَافَاطَ: [لِيَذهَبْ عَبِيدِي مَعَ عَبِيدِكَ فِي السُّفُنِ]. فَلَمْ يَشَأْ يَهُوشَافَاطُ.

50  And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David his father. Then Jehoram his son reigned in his place.

50  وَاضْطَجَعَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ وَدُفِنَ مَعَ آبَائِهِ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، فَمَلَكَ يَهُورَامُ ابْنُهُ عِوَضاً عَنْهُ.

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

51  وَمَلَكَ أَخَزْيَا بْنُ أَخْآبَ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي السَّامِرَةِ فِي السَّنَةِ السَّابِعَةَ عَشَرَةَ لِيَهُوشَافَاطَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا. مَلَكَ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ سَنَتَيْنِ.

52  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 had made Israel sin;

52  وَعَمِلَ الشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ، وَسَارَ فِي طَرِيقِ أَبِيهِ وَطَرِيقِ أُمِّهِ، وَطَرِيقِ يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ نَبَاطَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُخْطِئُ

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

53  وَعَبَدَ الْبَعْلَ وَسَجَدَ لَهُ وَأَغَاظَ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ أَبُوهُ.
