ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΩΝ Γ´ - 1 Re - Kings III 22

LXX	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 και εκαθισεν τρια ετη και ουκ ην πολεμος ανα μεσον συριας και ανα μεσον ισραηλ	1 Three years passed without war between Aram and Israel.
2 και εγενηθη εν τω ενιαυτω τω τριτω και κατεβη ιωσαφατ βασιλευς ιουδα προς βασιλεα ισραηλ	2 In the third year, however, King Jehoshaphat of Judah came down to the king of Israel,
3 και ειπεν βασιλευς ισραηλ προς τους παιδας αυτου ει οιδατε οτι ημιν ρεμμαθ γαλααδ και ημεις σιωπωμεν λαβειν αυτην εκ χειρος βασιλεως συριας	3 who said to his servants, "Do you not know that Ramoth-gilead is ours and we are doing nothing to take it from the king of Aram?"
4 και ειπεν βασιλευς ισραηλ προς ιωσαφατ αναβηση μεθ' ημων εις ρεμμαθ γαλααδ εις πολεμον και ειπεν ιωσαφατ καθως εγω ουτως και συ καθως ο λαος μου ο λαος σου καθως οι ιπποι μου οι ιπποι σου	4 He asked Jehoshaphat, "Will you come with me to fight against Ramoth-gilead?" Jehoshaphat answered the king of Israel, "You and I are as one, and your people and my people, your horses and my horses as well."
5 και ειπεν ιωσαφατ βασιλευς ιουδα προς βασιλεα ισραηλ επερωτησατε δη σημερον τον κυριον	5 Jehoshaphat also said to the king of Israel, "Seek the word of the LORD at once."
6 και συνηθροισεν ο βασιλευς ισραηλ παντας τους προφητας ως τετρακοσιους ανδρας και ειπεν αυτοις ο βασιλευς ει πορευθω εις ρεμμαθ γαλααδ εις πολεμον η επισχω και ειπαν αναβαινε και διδους δωσει κυριος εις χειρας του βασιλεως	6 The king of Israel gathered together the prophets, about four hundred of them, and asked, "Shall I go to attack Ramoth-gilead or shall I refrain?" "Go up," they answered. "The LORD will deliver it over to the king."
7 και ειπεν ιωσαφατ προς βασιλεα ισραηλ ουκ εστιν ωδε προφητης του κυριου και επερωτησομεν τον κυριον δι' αυτου	7 But Jehoshaphat said, "Is there no other prophet of the LORD here whom we may consult?"
8 και ειπεν ο βασιλευς ισραηλ προς ιωσαφατ ετι εστιν ανηρ εις του επερωτησαι τον κυριον δι' αυτου και εγω μεμισηκα αυτον οτι ου λαλει περι εμου καλα αλλ' η κακα μιχαιας υιος ιεμλα και ειπεν ιωσαφατ βασιλευς ιουδα μη λεγετω ο βασιλευς ουτως	8 The king of Israel answered, "There is one other through whom we might consult the LORD, Micaiah, son of Imlah; but I hate him because he prophesies not good but evil about me." Jehoshaphat said, "Let not your majesty speak of evil against you."
9 και εκαλεσεν ο βασιλευς ισραηλ ευνουχον ενα και ειπεν ταχος μιχαιαν υιον ιεμλα	9 So the king of Israel called an official and said to him, "Get Micaiah, son of Imlah, at once."
10 και ο βασιλευς ισραηλ και ιωσαφατ βασιλευς ιουδα εκαθηντο ανηρ επι του θρονου αυτου ενοπλοι εν ταις πυλαις σαμαρειας και παντες οι προφηται επροφητευον ενωπιον αυτων	10 The king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah were seated, each on his throne, clothed in their robes of state on a threshing floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
11 και εποιησεν εαυτω σεδεκιας υιος χανανα κερατα σιδηρα και ειπεν ταδε λεγει κυριος εν τουτοις κερατιεις την συριαν εως συντελεσθη	11 Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, made himself horns of iron and said, "The LORD says, 'With these you shall gore Aram until you have destroyed them.'"
12 και παντες οι προφηται επροφητευον ουτως λεγοντες αναβαινε εις ρεμμαθ γαλααδ και ευοδωσει και δωσει κυριος εις χειρας σου και τον βασιλεα συριας	12 The other prophets prophesied in a similar vein, saying: "Go up to Ramoth-gilead; you shall succeed. The LORD will deliver it over to the king."
13 και ο αγγελος ο πορευθεις καλεσαι τον μιχαιαν ελαλησεν αυτω λεγων ιδου δη λαλουσιν παντες οι προφηται εν στοματι ενι καλα περι του βασιλεως γινου δη και συ εις λογους σου κατα τους λογους ενος τουτων και λαλησον καλα	13 The messenger who had gone to call Micaiah said to him, "Look now, the prophets are unanimously predicting good for the king. Let your word be the same as any of theirs; predict good."
14 και ειπεν μιχαιας ζη κυριος οτι α αν ειπη κυριος προς με ταυτα λαλησω	14 "As the LORD lives," Micaiah answered, "I shall say whatever the LORD tells me."
15 και ηλθεν προς τον βασιλεα και ειπεν αυτω ο βασιλευς μιχαια ει αναβω εις ρεμμαθ γαλααδ εις πολεμον η επισχω και ειπεν αναβαινε και ευοδωσει και δωσει κυριος εις χειρα του βασιλεως	15 When he came to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to fight against Ramoth-gilead, or shall we refrain?" "Go up," he answered, "you shall succeed! The LORD will deliver it over to the king."
16 και ειπεν αυτω ο βασιλευς ποσακις εγω ορκιζω σε οπως λαλησης προς με αληθειαν εν ονοματι κυριου	16 But the king answered him, "How many times must I adjure you to tell me nothing but the truth in the name of the LORD?"
17 και ειπεν μιχαιας ουχ ουτως εωρακα παντα τον ισραηλ διεσπαρμενον εν τοις ορεσιν ως ποιμνιον ω ουκ εστιν ποιμην και ειπεν κυριος ου κυριος τουτοις αναστρεφετω εκαστος εις τον οικον αυτου εν ειρηνη	17 So Micaiah said: "I see all Israel scattered on the mountains, like sheep without a shepherd, and the LORD saying, 'These have no master! Let each of them go back home in peace.'"
18 και ειπεν βασιλευς ισραηλ προς ιωσαφατ βασιλεα ιουδα ουκ ειπα προς σε ου προφητευει ουτος μοι καλα διοτι αλλ' η κακα	18 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you he prophesies not good but evil about me?"
19 και ειπεν μιχαιας ουχ ουτως ουκ εγω ακουε ρημα κυριου ουχ ουτως ειδον τον κυριον θεον ισραηλ καθημενον επι θρονου αυτου και πασα η στρατια του ουρανου ειστηκει περι αυτον εκ δεξιων αυτου και εξ ευωνυμων αυτου	19 Micaiah continued: "Therefore hear the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD seated on his throne, with the whole host of heaven standing by to his right and to his left.
20 και ειπεν κυριος τις απατησει τον αχααβ βασιλεα ισραηλ και αναβησεται και πεσειται εν ρεμμαθ γαλααδ και ειπεν ουτος ουτως και ουτος ουτως	20 The LORD asked, 'Who will deceive Ahab, so that he will go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?' And one said this, another that,
21 και εξηλθεν πνευμα και εστη ενωπιον κυριου και ειπεν εγω απατησω αυτον και ειπεν προς αυτον κυριος εν τινι	21 until one of the spirits came forth and presented himself to the LORD, saying, 'I will deceive him.' The LORD asked, 'How?'
22 και ειπεν εξελευσομαι και εσομαι πνευμα ψευδες εν στοματι παντων των προφητων αυτου και ειπεν απατησεις και γε δυνησει εξελθε και ποιησον ουτως	22 He answered, 'I will go forth and become a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets.' The LORD replied, 'You shall succeed in deceiving him. Go forth and do this.'
23 και νυν ιδου εδωκεν κυριος πνευμα ψευδες εν στοματι παντων των προφητων σου τουτων και κυριος ελαλησεν επι σε κακα	23 So now, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours, but the LORD himself has decreed evil against you."
24 και προσηλθεν σεδεκιου υιος χανανα και επαταξεν τον μιχαιαν επι την σιαγονα και ειπεν ποιον πνευμα κυριου το λαλησαν εν σοι	24 Thereupon Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, came up and slapped Micaiah on the cheek, saying, "Has the spirit of the LORD, then, left me to speak with you?"
25 και ειπεν μιχαιας ιδου συ οψη εν τη ημερα εκεινη οταν εισελθης ταμιειον του ταμιειου του κρυβηναι	25 "You shall find out," Micaiah replied, "on that day when you retreat into an inside room to hide."
26 και ειπεν ο βασιλευς ισραηλ λαβετε τον μιχαιαν και αποστρεψατε αυτον προς εμηρ τον αρχοντα της πολεως και τω ιωας υιω του βασιλεως	26 The king of Israel then said, "Seize Micaiah and take him back to Amon, prefect of the city, and to Joash, the king's son,
27 ειπον θεσθαι τουτον εν φυλακη και εσθιειν αυτον αρτον θλιψεως και υδωρ θλιψεως εως του επιστρεψαι με εν ειρηνη	27 and say, 'This is the king's order: Put this man in prison and feed him scanty rations of bread and water until I return in safety.'"
28 και ειπεν μιχαιας εαν επιστρεφων επιστρεψης εν ειρηνη ουκ ελαλησεν κυριος εν εμοι	28 But Micaiah said, "If ever you return in safety, the LORD has not spoken through me."
29 και ανεβη βασιλευς ισραηλ και ιωσαφατ βασιλευς ιουδα μετ' αυτου εις ρεμμαθ γαλααδ	29 The king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead,
30 και ειπεν βασιλευς ισραηλ προς ιωσαφατ βασιλεα ιουδα συγκαλυψομαι και εισελευσομαι εις τον πολεμον και συ ενδυσαι τον ιματισμον μου και συνεκαλυψατο ο βασιλευς ισραηλ και εισηλθεν εις τον πολεμον	30 and the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will disguise myself and go into battle, but you put on your own clothes." So the king of Israel disguised himself and entered the fray.
31 και βασιλευς συριας ενετειλατο τοις αρχουσι των αρματων αυτου τριακοντα και δυσιν λεγων μη πολεμειτε μικρον και μεγαν αλλ' η τον βασιλεα ισραηλ μονωτατον	31 In the meantime the king of Aram had given his thirty-two chariot commanders the order, "Do not fight with anyone at all except the king of Israel."
32 και εγενετο ως ειδον οι αρχοντες των αρματων τον ιωσαφατ βασιλεα ιουδα και αυτοι ειπον φαινεται βασιλευς ισραηλ ουτος και εκυκλωσαν αυτον πολεμησαι και ανεκραξεν ιωσαφατ	32 When the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they cried out, "That must be the king of Israel!" and shifted to fight him. But Jehoshaphat shouted his battle cry,
33 και εγενετο ως ειδον οι αρχοντες των αρματων οτι ουκ εστιν βασιλευς ισραηλ ουτος και απεστρεψαν απ' αυτου	33 and the chariot commanders, aware that he was not the king of Israel, gave up pursuit of him.
34 και ενετεινεν εις το τοξον ευστοχως και επαταξεν τον βασιλεα ισραηλ ανα μεσον του πνευμονος και ανα μεσον του θωρακος και ειπεν τω ηνιοχω αυτου επιστρεψον τας χειρας σου και εξαγαγε με εκ του πολεμου οτι τετρωμαι	34 Someone, however, drew his bow at random, and hit the king of Israel between the joints of his breastplate. He ordered his charioteer, "Rein about and take me out of the ranks, for I am disabled."
35 και ετροπωθη ο πολεμος εν τη ημερα εκεινη και ο βασιλευς ην εστηκως επι του αρματος εξ εναντιας συριας απο πρωι εως εσπερας και απεχυννε το αιμα εκ της πληγης εις τον κολπον του αρματος και απεθανεν εσπερας και εξεπορευετο το αιμα της τροπης εως του κολπου του αρματος	35 The battle grew fierce during the day, and the king, who was propped up in his chariot facing the Arameans, died in the evening. The blood from his wound flowed to the bottom of the chariot.
36 και εστη ο στρατοκηρυξ δυνοντος του ηλιου λεγων εκαστος εις την εαυτου πολιν και εις την εαυτου γην	36 At sunset a cry went through the army, "Every man to his city, every man to his land,
37 οτι τεθνηκεν ο βασιλευς και ηλθον εις σαμαρειαν και εθαψαν τον βασιλεα εν σαμαρεια	37 for the king is dead!" So they went to Samaria, where they buried the king.
38 και απενιψαν το αρμα επι την κρηνην σαμαρειας και εξελειξαν αι υες και οι κυνες το αιμα και αι πορναι ελουσαντο εν τω αιματι κατα το ρημα κυριου ο ελαλησεν	38 When the chariot was washed at the pool of Samaria, the dogs licked up his blood and harlots bathed there, as the LORD had prophesied.
39 και τα λοιπα των λογων αχααβ και παντα α εποιησεν και οικον ελεφαντινον ον ωκοδομησεν και πασας τας πολεις ας εποιησεν ουκ ιδου ταυτα γεγραπται εν βιβλιω λογων των ημερων των βασιλεων ισραηλ	39 The rest of the acts of Ahab, with all that he did, including the ivory palace and all the cities he built, are recorded in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
40 και εκοιμηθη αχααβ μετα των πατερων αυτου και εβασιλευσεν οχοζιας υιος αυτου αντ' αυτου	40 Ahab rested with his ancestors, and his son Ahaziah succeeded him as king.
41 και ιωσαφατ υιος ασα εβασιλευσεν επι ιουδα ετει τεταρτω τω αχααβ βασιλεως ισραηλ εβασιλευσεν	41 Jehoshaphat, son of Asa, began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab, king of Israel.
42 ιωσαφατ υιος τριακοντα και πεντε ετων εν τω βασιλευειν αυτον και εικοσι και πεντε ετη εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ και ονομα τη μητρι αυτου αζουβα θυγατηρ σελει	42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.
43 και επορευθη εν παση οδω ασα του πατρος αυτου ουκ εξεκλινεν απ' αυτης του ποιησαι το ευθες εν οφθαλμοις κυριου	43 He followed all the ways of his father Asa unswervingly, doing what was right in the LORD'S sight.
44 πλην των υψηλων ουκ εξηρεν ετι ο λαος εθυσιαζεν και εθυμιων εν τοις υψηλοις	44 Nevertheless, the high places did not disappear, and the people continued to sacrifice and to burn incense on the high places.
45 και ειρηνευσεν ιωσαφατ μετα βασιλεως ισραηλ	45 Jehoshaphat also made peace with the king of Israel.
46 και τα λοιπα των λογων ιωσαφατ και αι δυναστειαι αυτου οσα εποιησεν ουκ ιδου ταυτα γεγραμμενα εν βιβλιω λογων των ημερων των βασιλεων ιουδα	46 The rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, with his prowess, what he did and how he fought, are recorded in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
47 -	47 He removed from the land the rest of the cult prostitutes who had remained in the reign of his father Asa.
48 -	48 There was no king in Edom, but an appointed regent.
49 -	49 Jehoshaphat made Tarshish ships to go to Ophir for gold; but in fact the ships did not go, because they were wrecked at Ezion-geber.
50 -	50 Then Ahaziah, son of Ahab, said to Jehoshaphat, "Let my servants accompany your servants in the ships." But Jehoshaphat would not agree.
51 και εκοιμηθη ιωσαφατ μετα των πατερων αυτου και εταφη παρα τοις πατρασιν αυτου εν πολει δαυιδ του πατρος αυτου και εβασιλευσεν ιωραμ υιος αυτου αντ' αυτου	51 Jehoshaphat rested with his ancestors; he was buried in his forefathers' City of David. His son Jehoram succeeded him as king.
52 και οχοζιας υιος αχααβ εβασιλευσεν επι ισραηλ εν σαμαρεια εν ετει επτακαιδεκατω ιωσαφατ βασιλει ιουδα και εβασιλευσεν εν ισραηλ ετη δυο	52 Ahaziah, son of Ahab, began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah; he reigned two years over Israel.
53 και εποιησεν το πονηρον εναντιον κυριου και επορευθη εν οδω αχααβ του πατρος αυτου και εν οδω ιεζαβελ της μητρος αυτου και εν ταις αμαρτιαις οικου ιεροβοαμ υιου ναβατ ος εξημαρτεν τον ισραηλ	53 He did evil in the sight of the LORD, behaving like his father, his mother, and Jeroboam, son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin.
54 και εδουλευσεν τοις βααλιμ και προσεκυνησεν αυτοις και παρωργισεν τον κυριον θεον ισραηλ κατα παντα τα γενομενα εμπροσθεν αυτου .	54 He served and worshiped Baal, thus provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, just as his father had done.
