18 ¹Yehosafat nyaa ahonyade ne anuonyam bebree, na ɔnam awaregye so ne Ahab bɔɔ abusua. ²Mfe bi akyi no, ɔsian kɔɔ Ahab nkyɛn wɔ Samaria, na Ahab kum nguan ne anantwi bebree maa no ne nnipa a wɔka ne ho no, na ɔhyɛɛ no nkuran sɛ ɔnkɔtow nhyɛ Ramot-Gilead so. ³Israel hene Ahab bisaa Yuda hene Yehosafat se, “Wo ne me bɛkɔ Ramot-Gilead anaa?” Ɔbuae se, “Me ne wo yɛ pɛ, me nkurɔfo ne wo nkurɔfo yɛ pɛ; yɛne wo bɛkɔ ɔko no.”

⁴Nanso Yehosafat ka kyerɛɛ Israel hene no se, “Di kan bisa yɛn Agya asɛm.”

⁵Enti Israel hene no frɛɛ adiyifo no ano, mmarima ahanan, na obisaa wɔn se, “Yɛnkɔko wɔ Ramot-Gilead anaa yɛnnyae?” Wɔbuaa se, “Foro kɔ, efisɛ Onyankopɔn de no bɛhyɛ ɔhene no nsa.”

⁶Nanso Yehosafat bisae se, “Yɛn Agya odiyifo bi nni ha bio a yebetumi abisa no asɛm?”

⁷Israel hene ka kyerɛɛ Yehosafat se, “Ɔbarima baako aka a yɛnam ne so betumi abisa yɛn Agya, nanso metan no—ɔnhyɛ nkɔm pa da wɔ me ho, gye bɔne nko ara. Ɔne Imla ba Mikaia.” Yehosafat buae se, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔhene ka saa.”

⁸Afei Israel hene frɛɛ ɔpanyin bi ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Kɔfa Imla ba Mikaia bra ntɛm.”

⁹Israel hene ne Yuda hene Yehosafat hyehyɛɛ wɔn ahentade, na wɔn mu biara tenaa nʼahengua so wɔ ayuporobea a ɛwɔ Samaria kurow pon ano hɔ, na adiyifo no nyinaa rehyɛ nkɔm wɔ wɔn anim. ¹⁰Kenaana ba Sedekia yɛɛ dade mmɛn, na ɔkae se, “Onyankopɔn se: ‘Wode eyinom bɛwɔ Aramfo no kosi sɛ wɔbɛsɛe wɔn.’”

¹¹Adiyifo no nyinaa hyɛɛ nkɔm saa ara se, “Foro kɔ Ramot-Gilead na di nkonim; yɛn Agya de no bɛhyɛ ɔhene no nsa.”

¹²Ɔbɔfo a wɔsomaa no sɛ ɔnkɔfrɛ Mikaia no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Adiyifo no nyinaa aka nsɛm pa ama ɔhene no. Ma wo nsɛm nso nhyia wɔn de—ka asɛm pa.”

¹³Nanso Mikaia kae se, “Sɛ yɛn Agya te ase yi, asɛm a mʼAgya ka nko ara na mɛka.”

¹⁴Bere a ɔbae no, ɔhene no bisaa no se, “Mikaia, yɛnkɔko wɔ Ramot-Gilead anaa minnyae?” Ɔbuae se, “Foro kɔ na di nkonim; wɔde wɔn bɛhyɛ wo nsa.”

¹⁵Nanso ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mpɛn ahe na ɛsɛ sɛ mema wodi nse sɛ wobɛka nokware nko ara akyerɛ me wɔ yɛn Agya din mu?”

¹⁶Mikaia kae se, “Mihuu sɛ Israel nyinaa abɔ ahwete wɔ mmepɔw no so sɛ nguan a wonni hwɛfo. Na yɛn Agya kae se, ‘Wonni wura; momma obiara nsan nkɔ ne fi asomdwoe mu.’”

¹⁷Israel hene ka kyerɛɛ Yehosafat se, “Manka ankyerɛ wo sɛ ɔrenhyɛ nkɔm pa biara wɔ me ho, gye bɔne nko ara?”

¹⁸Mikaia kae se, “Enti tie yɛn Agya asɛm: Mihuu yɛn Agya sɛ ɔte nʼahengua so, na ɔsoro asafo nyinaa gyinagyina ne nifa ne ne benkum.

¹⁹Na yɛn Agya kae se, ‘Hena na ɔbɛdaadaa Israel hene Ahab ama wakɔ Ramot-Gilead akɔtɔ hɔ?’ Obi kaa eyi, na ɔfoforo kaa ɛno.

²⁰Honhom bi fii adi bɛgyinaa yɛn Agya anim kae se, ‘Mɛdaadaa no.’ Na yɛn Agya bisaa no se, ‘Ɔkwan bɛn so?’

²¹Ɔkae se, ‘Mɛkɔ akɔyɛ atoro honhom wɔ nʼadiyifo nyinaa ano.’ Afei yɛn Agya kae se, ‘Wobɛdaadaa no, na wobedi nkonim nso. Kɔ na kɔyɛ saa.’

²²Enti afei, yɛn Agya de atoro honhom ahyɛ wo adiyifo yi ano, na yɛn Agya abɔ wo ho mmusu.”

²³Afei Kenaana ba Sedekia bɛn bɔɔ Mikaia abofono so, na obisae se, “Ɔkwan bɛn so na Onyankopɔn Honhom fii me mu bɛkasa kyerɛɛ wo?”

²⁴Mikaia buae se, “Ɛda a wobɛkɔ dan mu akɔhintaw no, wubehu.”

²⁵Israel hene kae se, “Momfa Mikaia nsan nkɔ kuropɔn no amrado Amon ne ɔhene ba Yoas nkyɛn, ²⁶na monka se, ‘Ɔhene se: Momfa ɔbarima yi ngu afiase, na momma no abodoo ne nsu kakraa bi nko ara nkosi sɛ mɛsan aba dwoodwoo.’”

²⁷Mikaia kae se, “Sɛ wusan ba dwoodwoo a, ɛnde yɛn Agya mfaa me so nkasae.” Afei ɔkae se, “Muntie, mo nnipa nyinaa!”

Ahab Hwe Ase sɛnea Agya no Hyɛɛ Ho Nkɔm

²⁸Enti Israel hene ne Yuda hene Yehosafat foro kɔɔ Ramot-Gilead. ²⁹Israel hene ka kyerɛɛ Yehosafat se, “Mɛsakra me ho akɔ ɔko no mu, na wo de, hyɛ wʼahentade.” Enti Israel hene sakraa ne ho, na wɔkɔɔ ɔko no mu. ³⁰Aram hene ahyɛ ne nteaseɛnam so asahene no se, “Monnko ntia obiara, ketewa anaa kɛse, gye Israel hene nko ara.”

³¹Bere a nteaseɛnam so asahene no huu Yehosafat no, wɔkae se, “Ɛno ne Israel hene,” na wɔdan kɔɔ ne so sɛ wɔne no rebɛko. Nanso Yehosafat teɛɛm, na yɛn Agya boaa no, twee wɔn fii ne ho. ³²Bere a nteaseɛnam so asahene no huu sɛ ɔnyɛ Israel hene no, wogyaee no taa. ³³Ɔbarima bi toaa agyan kwa, na ɛkɔwɔɔ Israel hene no wɔ ne akofoatade nkabam ntam. Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne nteaseɛnam kafo se, “Dan na yi me fi ɔko no mu; mapira.” ³⁴Ɔko no yɛɛ den da no. Wɔde Israel hene no sɛɛ ne nteaseɛnam mu a ɔde nʼani akyerɛ Aramfo no kosii anwummere, na owui owia tɔ bere.
