Micaiah Prophesies Against Ahab(A)

22 For three years there was no war between Aram and Israel. But in the third year Jehoshaphat king of Judah went down to see the king of Israel. The king of Israel had said to his officials, “Don’t you know that Ramoth Gilead(B) belongs to us and yet we are doing nothing to retake it from the king of Aram?”

So he asked Jehoshaphat, “Will you go with me to fight(C) against Ramoth Gilead?”

Jehoshaphat replied to the king of Israel, “I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.” But Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, “First seek the counsel(D) of the Lord.”

So the king of Israel brought together the prophets—about four hundred men—and asked them, “Shall I go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or shall I refrain?”

“Go,”(E) they answered, “for the Lord will give it into the king’s hand.”(F)

But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there no longer a prophet(G) of the Lord here whom we can inquire(H) of?”

The king of Israel answered Jehoshaphat, “There is still one prophet through whom we can inquire of the Lord, but I hate(I) him because he never prophesies anything good(J) about me, but always bad. He is Micaiah son of Imlah.”

“The king should not say such a thing,” Jehoshaphat replied.

So the king of Israel called one of his officials and said, “Bring Micaiah son of Imlah at once.”

10 Dressed in their royal robes, the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah were sitting on their thrones at the threshing floor(K) by the entrance of the gate of Samaria, with all the prophets prophesying before them. 11 Now Zedekiah(L) son of Kenaanah had made iron horns(M) and he declared, “This is what the Lord says: ‘With these you will gore the Arameans until they are destroyed.’”

12 All the other prophets were prophesying the same thing. “Attack Ramoth Gilead and be victorious,” they said, “for the Lord will give it into the king’s hand.”

13 The messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah said to him, “Look, the other prophets without exception are predicting success for the king. Let your word agree with theirs, and speak favorably.”(N)

14 But Micaiah said, “As surely as the Lord lives, I can tell him only what the Lord tells me.”(O)

15 When he arrived, the king asked him, “Micaiah, shall we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or not?”

“Attack and be victorious,” he answered, “for the Lord will give it into the king’s hand.”

16 The king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear to tell me nothing but the truth in the name of the Lord?”

17 Then Micaiah answered, “I saw all Israel scattered(P) on the hills like sheep without a shepherd,(Q) and the Lord said, ‘These people have no master. Let each one go home in peace.’”

18 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Didn’t I tell you that he never prophesies anything good about me, but only bad?”

19 Micaiah continued, “Therefore hear the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne(R) with all the multitudes(S) of heaven standing around him on his right and on his left. 20 And the Lord said, ‘Who will entice Ahab into attacking Ramoth Gilead and going to his death there?’

“One suggested this, and another that. 21 Finally, a spirit came forward, stood before the Lord and said, ‘I will entice him.’

22 “‘By what means?’ the Lord asked.

“‘I will go out and be a deceiving(T) spirit in the mouths of all his prophets,’ he said.

“‘You will succeed in enticing him,’ said the Lord. ‘Go and do it.’

23 “So now the Lord has put a deceiving(U) spirit in the mouths of all these prophets(V) of yours. The Lord has decreed disaster(W) for you.”

24 Then Zedekiah(X) son of Kenaanah went up and slapped(Y) Micaiah in the face. “Which way did the spirit from[a] the Lord go when he went from me to speak(Z) to you?” he asked.

25 Micaiah replied, “You will find out on the day you go to hide(AA) in an inner room.”

26 The king of Israel then ordered, “Take Micaiah and send him back to Amon the ruler of the city and to Joash the king’s son 27 and say, ‘This is what the king says: Put this fellow in prison(AB) and give him nothing but bread and water until I return safely.’”

28 Micaiah declared, “If you ever return safely, the Lord has not spoken(AC) through me.” Then he added, “Mark my words, all you people!”

Ahab Killed at Ramoth Gilead(AD)

29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead. 30 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will enter the battle in disguise,(AE) but you wear your royal robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.

31 Now the king of Aram(AF) had ordered his thirty-two chariot commanders, “Do not fight with anyone, small or great, except the king(AG) of Israel.” 32 When the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they thought, “Surely this is the king of Israel.” So they turned to attack him, but when Jehoshaphat cried out, 33 the chariot commanders saw that he was not the king of Israel and stopped pursuing him.

34 But someone drew his bow(AH) at random and hit the king of Israel between the sections of his armor. The king told his chariot driver, “Wheel around and get me out of the fighting. I’ve been wounded.” 35 All day long the battle raged, and the king was propped up in his chariot facing the Arameans. The blood from his wound ran onto the floor of the chariot, and that evening he died. 36 As the sun was setting, a cry spread through the army: “Every man to his town. Every man to his land!”(AI)

37 So the king died and was brought to Samaria, and they buried him there. 38 They washed the chariot at a pool in Samaria (where the prostitutes bathed),[b] and the dogs(AJ) licked up his blood, as the word of the Lord had declared.

39 As for the other events of Ahab’s reign, including all he did, the palace he built and adorned with ivory,(AK) and the cities he fortified, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel? 40 Ahab rested with his ancestors. And Ahaziah his son succeeded him as king.

Jehoshaphat King of Judah(AL)

41 Jehoshaphat son of Asa became king of Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel. 42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-five years. His mother’s name was Azubah daughter of Shilhi. 43 In everything he followed the ways of his father Asa(AM) and did not stray from them; he did what was right in the eyes of the Lord. The high places,(AN) however, were not removed, and the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there.[c] 44 Jehoshaphat was also at peace with the king of Israel.

45 As for the other events of Jehoshaphat’s reign, the things he achieved and his military exploits, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? 46 He rid the land of the rest of the male shrine prostitutes(AO) who remained there even after the reign of his father Asa. 47 There was then no king(AP) in Edom; a provincial governor ruled.

48 Now Jehoshaphat built a fleet of trading ships[d](AQ) to go to Ophir for gold, but they never set sail—they were wrecked at Ezion Geber.(AR) 49 At that time Ahaziah son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my men sail with yours,” but Jehoshaphat refused.

50 Then Jehoshaphat rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the city of David his father. And Jehoram his son succeeded him as king.

Ahaziah King of Israel

51 Ahaziah son of Ahab became king of Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years. 52 He did evil(AS) in the eyes of the Lord, because he followed the ways of his father and mother and of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin. 53 He served and worshiped Baal(AT) and aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel, just as his father(AU) had done.

Micaiah Warns Ahab(A)

22 Now three years passed without war between Syria and Israel. Then it came to pass, in the third year, that (B)Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went down to visit the king of Israel.

And the king of Israel said to his servants, “Do you know that (C)Ramoth in Gilead is ours, but we hesitate to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?” So he said to Jehoshaphat, “Will you go with me to fight at Ramoth Gilead?”

Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, (D)“I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.” Also Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, (E)“Please inquire for the word of the Lord today.”

Then the king of Israel (F)gathered [a]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.”

And (G)Jehoshaphat said, “Is there not still a prophet of the Lord here, that we may inquire of [b]Him?”

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!”

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

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. 11 Now Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah had made (H)horns of iron for himself; and he said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘With these you shall (I)gore the Syrians until they are destroyed.’ ” 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.”

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.”

14 And Micaiah said, “As the Lord lives, (J)whatever the Lord says to me, that I will speak.”

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!”

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?”

17 Then he said, “I saw all Israel (K)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.’ ”

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

19 Then Micaiah said, “Therefore hear the word of the Lord: (L)I saw the Lord sitting on His throne, (M)and all the host of heaven standing by, on His right hand and on His left. 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. 21 Then a spirit came forward and stood before the Lord, and said, ‘I will persuade him.’ 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, (N)‘You shall persuade him, and also prevail. Go out and do so.’ 23 (O)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.”

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

25 And Micaiah said, “Indeed, you shall see on that day when you go into an (R)inner chamber to hide!”

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; 27 and say, ‘Thus says the king: “Put this fellow in (S)prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and water of affliction, until I come in peace.” ’ ”

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

Ahab Dies in Battle(U)

29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead. 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 (V)disguised himself and went into battle.

31 Now the (W)king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two (X)captains of his chariots, saying, “Fight with no one small or great, but only with the king of Israel.” 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 (Y)cried out. 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. 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.”

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. 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!”

37 So the king died, and was brought to Samaria. And they buried the king in Samaria. 38 Then someone washed the chariot at a pool in Samaria, and the dogs licked up his blood while [c]the harlots bathed, according (Z)to the word of the Lord which He had spoken.

39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, (AA)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? 40 So Ahab [d]rested with his fathers. Then (AB)Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.

Jehoshaphat Reigns in Judah(AC)

41 (AD)Jehoshaphat the son of Asa had become king over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel. 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. 43 And (AE)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 (AF)the high places were not taken away, for the people offered sacrifices and burned incense on the high places. 44 Also (AG)Jehoshaphat made (AH)peace with the king of Israel.

45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, the might that he showed, and how he made war, are they not written (AI)in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? 46 (AJ)And the rest of the [e]perverted persons, who remained in the days of his father Asa, he banished from the land. 47 (AK)There was then no king in Edom, only a deputy of the king.

48 (AL)Jehoshaphat (AM)made [f]merchant ships to go to (AN)Ophir for gold; (AO)but they never sailed, for the ships were wrecked at (AP)Ezion Geber. 49 Then Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, “Let my servants go with your servants in the ships.” But Jehoshaphat would not.

50 And (AQ)Jehoshaphat [g]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.

Ahaziah Reigns in Israel

51 (AR)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. 52 He did evil in the sight of the Lord, and (AS)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; 53 for (AT)he served Baal and worshiped him, and provoked the Lord God of Israel to anger, (AU)according[h] to all that his father had done.

22  És három esztendõ lefolyt úgy, hogy nem volt hadakozás a Siriabeliek és az Izráel között.

De a harmadik esztendõben aláméne Josafát, Júda királya az Izráel királyához,

Akkor monda az Izráel királya az õ szolgáinak: Nem tudjátok-é, hogy Rámoth Gileád a miénk? És mi hallgatunk és nem veszszük vissza azt Siria királyától?

És monda Josafátnak: Feljössz-é velem e hadba Rámoth Gileád ellen? Felele Josafát az Izráel királyának: Úgy én, mint te, úgy az én népem, mint a te néped; úgy az én lovaim, mint a te lovaid.

És monda Josafát az Izráel királyának: Kérdezõsködjél még ma az Úr beszéde után.

És összegyûjté az Izráel királya a prófétákat, közel négyszáz férfiút, és monda nékik: Elmenjek-é Rámoth Gileád ellen hadba, vagy elhagyjam? És mondának: Menj fel; mert az Úr kezébe adja azt a királynak.

És monda Josafát: Nincs itt már több prófétája az Úrnak, hogy attól [is] tudakozódhatnánk?

És monda az Izráel királya Josafátnak: Még van egy férfiú, a ki által megkérdhetjük az Urat, Mikeás, a Jemla fia; de én gyûlölöm õt, mert [soha] nem jövendöl nékem jót, hanem mindig csak rosszat. És monda Josafát: Ne beszéljen így a király!

És elõszólíta az Izráel királya egy udvariszolgát, és monda: Hívd ide hamar Mikeást, a Jemla fiát.

10 És ott ült az Izráel királya és Josafát, Júda királya, ruhákba öltözötten, mindenik a maga trónusán Samaria kapuja elõtt a térségen, és a próféták mind ott jövendöltek elõttük.

11 És Sédékiás, a Kénaána fia, vasszarvakat készített, és monda: Ezt mondja az Úr: Ezekkel ökleled a Siriabelieket, míg meg nem emészted õket.

12 És a próféták is mindnyájan ekképen jövendöltek, mondván: Menj fel Rámoth Gileád ellen, és jó szerencséd lesz; mert azt az Úr a király kezébe adja.

13 A követ pedig, a ki elment volt, hogy elhívja Mikeást, szóla néki, mondván: Ímé a próféták egyenlõ akarattal jót jövendölnek a királynak: szólj, kérlek, te is úgy, mint azok közül egy, és jövendölj jót.

14 Mikeás pedig monda: Él az Úr, hogy [csak] azt fogom mondani, a mit az Úr mondánd nékem.

15 És mikor a királyhoz ment, monda néki a király: Mikeás! elmenjünk-é Rámoth Gileád ellen hadba, vagy elhagyjuk? Õ pedig monda néki: Menj fel és járj szerencsével; az Úr kezébe adja [azt] a királynak.

16 És monda néki a király: Még hányszor kényszerítselek téged, hogy az igaznál egyebet ne mondj nékem az Úr nevében?

17 És monda: Látám az egész Izráelt szétszéledve a hegyeken, mint a juhokat, a melyeknek nincsen pásztoruk. És monda az Úr: Nincsen ezeknek urok? Térjen vissza kiki az õ házához békességben.

18 És monda az Izráel királya Josafátnak: Nemde nem megmondottam-é néked, hogy [soha] jót nékem nem jövendöl, hanem [csak ]rosszat.

19 És monda [Mikeás:] Azért halld meg most az Úr beszédét: Látám az Urat az õ székiben ülni, és az egész mennyei sereget az õ jobb- és balkeze felõl mellette állani.

20 És monda az Úr: Kicsoda csalja meg Akhábot, hogy felmenjen, és elvesszen Rámoth Gileádnál? És ki egyet, ki mást szól vala hozzá.

21 Akkor elõjõve egy lélek, a ki az Úr eleibe álla, és monda: Én akarom megcsalni õt. Az Úr pedig monda néki: Miképen?

22 És felele: Kimegyek és hazug lélek leszek minden õ prófétáinak szájában. Akkor monda [az Úr:] Csald meg és gyõzd meg; menj ki, és cselekedjél úgy.

23 Ímé az Úr a hazugságnak lelkét adta mindezeknek a te prófétáidnak szájába; és az Úr szólott veszedelmes dolgot ellened.

24 Akkor odalépett Sédékiás, a Kénaána fia, és arczul csapván Mikeást, monda: Hogyan? Eltávozott volna én tõlem az Úrnak lelke, hogy csak néked szólana?

25 És monda Mikeás: Ímé meglátod azon a napon, a mikor az egyik kamarából a másik kamarába mégy be, hogy elrejtõzhess.

26 Az Izráel királya pedig monda: Fogjad Mikeást, és vidd vissza õt Ammonhoz, a város fejedelméhez, és Joáshoz, a király fiához;

27 És mondjad: Ezt mondja a király: Vessétek ezt a tömlöczbe, és tápláljátok õt a nyomorúság kenyerével és a nyomorúság vizével, míg békességgel megjövök.

28 Monda pedig Mikeás: Ha békességgel térsz vissza, nem az Úr szólott én általam. Azután monda: Halljátok ezt meg minden népek!

29 És felvonult az Izráel királya, és Josafát, a Júda királya Rámoth Gileád [ellen.

30 És monda az Izráel királya Josafátnak: Megváltoztatom ruhámat, és úgy megyek a viadalra, te pedig öltözzél fel ruhádba. És elváltoztatá ruháját az Izráel királya, és úgy méne a viadalra.

31 Siria királya pedig megparancsolá az õ szekerei harminczkét fejedelmeinek, mondván: Ne vívjatok se kicsinynyel, se nagygyal, hanem egyedül csak az Izráel királya ellen vívjatok.

32 És a mikor meglátták a szekerek fejedelmei Josafátot, mondának: Nyilván ez az Izráel királya; és reá rohanván vívának ellene. De Josafát [elkezdett] kiáltani.

33 Mikor pedig látták a szekerek fejedelmei, hogy nem az Izráel királya, ott hagyták.

34 Egy ember pedig [csak úgy] találomra kilövé az õ kézívét, és találá az Izráel királyát a pánczél és a kapocs között. És õ monda a kocsisának: Fordulj meg és vigy ki engem a táborból, mert megsebesültem!

35 És az ütközet mind erõsebb lett azon a napon, és a király az õ szekerében állott a Siriabeliek ellen, és meghalt este [felé,] és a vér a sebbõl a szekérbe csorgott.

36 És kikiálták napnyugotkor a táborban, mondván: Minden ember [menjen haza] a maga városába és földjébe!

37 És meghalt a király és visszavitetvén Samariába, eltemeték a királyt Samariában.

38 És mikor mosták az õ szekerét a Samaria mellett lévõ tóban: az ebek nyalták az õ vérét, és paráznák fürödtek ott, az Úrnak beszéde szerint, a melyet szólott volt.

39 Akhábnak egyéb dolgai pedig és minden cselekedetei, az elefántcsontból építtetett ház, és mind a városok, a melyeket épített, vajjon nincsenek- é megírva az Izráel királyainak krónika-könyvében?

40 És elaluvék Akháb az õ atyáival; és uralkodék õ utána fia, Akházia.

41 És Josafát, az Asa fia lett királylyá Júdában, Akhábnak, az Izráel királyának negyedik esztendejében.

42 És Josafát harminczöt esztendõs volt, mikor uralkodni kezdett, és huszonöt esztendeig uralkodott Jeruzsálemben. Az õ anyjának Azuba volt a neve, Silhi leánya.

43 És jára Asának, az õ atyjának minden útjában, és abból ki nem tére, azt cselekedvén, a mi az Úr szemei elõtt kedves.

44 Csakhogy a magaslatokat nem rombolták le, és a nép még áldozott és tömjénezett a magaslatokon.

45 És békességben élt Josafát az Izráel királyával.

46 Josafátnak egyéb dolgai pedig és az õ ereje, a melylyel cselekedett, és a melylyel hadakozott, vajjon nincsenek-é megírva a Júda királyainak krónika-könyvében?

47 A férfi paráznákat is, a kik még megmaradtak volt az õ atyjának, Asának idejébõl, kiûzte az országból.

48 Akkor nem volt király Edomban, hanem csak helyettes király.

49 És Josafát Társis hajókat csináltatott, hogy aranyért mennének Ofirba, de nem mehettek el; mert a hajók összetörtek Esiongáberben.

50 Akkor mondá Akházia, az Akháb fia, Josafátnak: Hadd menjenek el az én szolgáim a te szolgáiddal e hajókon; de Josafát nem akará.

51 És elaluvék Josafát az õ atyáival; és eltemetteték az õ atyáival az õ atyjának, Dávidnak városában; és az õ fia, Jórám, uralkodék helyette.

52 Akházia pedig, az Akháb fia kezde uralkodni Izráelen Samariában, Josafátnak, a Júda királyának tizenhetedik esztendejében, és uralkodék Izráelben két esztendeig.

53 És gonoszul cselekedék az Úrnak szemei elõtt, járván az õ atyjának és anyjának útján, és Jeroboámnak, a Nébát fiának útján, a ki bûnbe ejté az Izráelt;

54 És szolgála a Baálnak, és azt imádá és haragra indítá az Urat, Izráel Istenét, mint a hogy az õ atyja cselekedett.
