1 Fa: no, Moua: be amola A: mone fi dunu ilia dadi gagui wa: i da ilia na: iyado fidisu fi Miunimi amo gilisili, Yuda fi doaga: la: le, ilia soge golili sa: i.
After this, the Moabites and Ammonites, together with some of the Meunites, came to make war against Jehoshaphat.
2 Sia: adola ahoasu dunu mogili, ilia da hina bagade Yihosiafa: dema misini, amane sia: i, “Idome dadi gagui wa: i bagade da Bogoi Hano Wayabo na: iyado amoga dima doagala: musa: maha. Ilia da Ha: sasoneda: ima (eno dio da Enegidai) amo hasalasili, susugui dagoi.
Then some men came and told Jehoshaphat, “A vast army is coming against you from Edom, from beyond the Sea; they are already in Hazazon-tamar” (that is, En-gedi).
3 Yihosiafa: de da beda: ga, Hina Godema ea hamomu logo olelema: ne sia: ne gadoi. Amalalu, e da Yuda dunu huluane ha: i mae nawene esaloma: ne sia: i.
Jehoshaphat was alarmed and set his face to seek the LORD. And he proclaimed a fast throughout Judah.
4 Yuda soge moilai bai bagade fi dunu mogili bagohame da Hina Gode Ea fidisu adole ba: ma: ne, Yelusalemega misi.
So the people of Judah gathered to seek the LORD, and indeed, they came from all the cities of Judah to seek Him.
5 Ili amola Yelusaleme fi dunu da Debolo Diasu ea gaheabolo gagoi amo ganodini gilisi. Hina bagade Yihosiafa: de da ili midadi lelu,
Then Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem in the house of the LORD in front of the new courtyard
6 ilia huluane nabima: ne, amane sia: ne gadoi,” Ninia aowalalia Hina Gode! Di da Hebene ganodini esala, osobo bagadega fifi asi gala huluanedafa ouligisa! Di da baligili gasadafa amola dunu afae dima gegemu da hamedei.
and said, “O LORD, God of our fathers, are You not the God who is in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand, and no one can stand against You.
7 Di da ninia Gode! Dia fi dunu Isala: ili da amo soge ganodini golili daloba, Di da guiguda: esalebe fi dunu amo sefasili, amo soge dia na: iyado A: ibalaha: me egaga fi dunu, ilia eso huluane amoga esaloma: ne, ilima i.
Our God, did You not drive out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham Your friend?
8 Ilia da amogawi esalu, Dima nodomusa: , Debolo Diasu gagui.
They have lived in the land and have built in it a sanctuary for Your Name, saying,
9 Ilia da dawa: i dagoi - gugunufinisisu da ilima se imunusa: doaga: sea - gegesu, olo bagade, ha: bagade, - ilia da amo Dima nodone sia: ne gadomusa: gagui Debolo Diasu midadi leluwane, Dima ili fidima: ne sia: ne gadoloba, Dia da ili sia: ne gadosu naba: loba amola ili gaga: la: loba.
‘If disaster comes upon us—whether sword or judgment, plague or famine—we will stand before this temple and before You, for Your Name is in this temple. We will cry out to You in our distress, and You will hear us and save us.’
10 Be wali A: mone amola Moua: be amola Idome fi dunu da nini doagala: i dagoi. Ninia aowalali da Idibidi fisili, ga ahoanoba, Di da ilia soge ganodini mae masa: ne sia: i. Amaiba: le, ninia aowalali da ilia soge sisale, ili hame gugunufinisi.
And now, here are the men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, whom You did not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt; but Israel turned away from them and did not destroy them.
11 Be wali ili da ninima agoane dabesa. Ilia da soge amo Dia ninima i, amoga nini sefasimusa: misi.
See how they are repaying us by coming to drive us out of the possession that You gave us as an inheritance.
12 Dia da ninia Gode! Se iasu bagade ilima ima! Bai ninia da amo dadi gagui wa: i bagade ilima gegemu hamedei ba: sa. Ninia adi hamoma: beyale hamedafa dawa: Be ninia Dia fidisu hogosa.”
Our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this vast army that comes against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.”
13 Yuda dunu, ilia uda amola mano, ilia huluane da Debolo Diasu ganodini lefulubi ba: i.
Meanwhile all the men of Judah, with their wives and children and little ones, were standing before the LORD.
14 Hina Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa da Lifai dunu afae gilisisu ganodini esalu. ema aligila sa: i. Ea dio da Yaha: isiele, Segalaia egefe. E da A: isa: fe egaga fi dunu amola ea fifi mabe da A: isa: fe, Ma: danaia, Yiaiele amola Bina: ia.
Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jahaziel son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite from Asaph’s descendants, as he stood in the midst of the assembly.
15 Yaha: isiele da amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Amola Yuda amola Yelusaleme fi dunu huluane! Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, ‘Dilia mae beda: ma amola mae da: i dioma! Amo dadi gagui wa: i bagade ilima gegemu mae beda: ma!’ Hina Gode Hi fawane da gegesu ouligimu. Dilia hame!
And he said, “Listen, all you people of Judah and Jerusalem! Listen, King Jehoshaphat! This is what the LORD says: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army, for the battle does not belong to you, but to God.
16 Aya, ilia da Sisi adobo gigadofa ahoasu amoga heda: sea, ili doagala: ma. Dilia da fago dibi amo da wadela: i hafoga: i soge Yiliuele moilai gadenene dialu, amogawi ilima wa: i disimu.
Tomorrow you are to march down against them. You will see them coming up the Ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the valley facing the Wilderness of Jeruel.
17 Dilia da amo gegesu hame hamomu. Udigili dadalele ouesalumu. Amasea, dilia da Hina Gode dilima hasalasu iabe ba: mu. Yuda amola Yelusaleme fi dunu! Mae gigiluma amola mae beda: ma! Gegemusa: masa! Amola Hina Gode dili esaloma!”
You need not fight this battle. Take up your positions, stand firm, and see the salvation of the LORD on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid or discouraged. Go out and face them tomorrow, for the LORD is with you.’”
18 Amalalu, hina bagade Yihosiafa: de da osoboga beguduli mi bugila sa: i. Amola dunu huluane da e gilisili beguduli, Hina Godema nodoi.
Then Jehoshaphat bowed facedown, and all the people of Judah and Jerusalem fell down before the LORD to worship Him.
19 Lifai fi sosogo amo Gouha: de amola Goula, amo dunu da wa: legadole, ha: giwane Isala: ili Hina Godema nodone wele sia: i.
And the Levites from the Kohathites and Korahites stood up to praise the LORD, the God of Israel, shouting in a very loud voice.
20 Hahabedafa, dunu huluane da wadela: i soge Degoua moilai gadenene dialu, amoga asi. Ilia da muni ahoanoba, Yihosiafa: de da ilima amane sia: i, “Yuda amola Yelusaleme fi dunu! Dilia da dilia Hina Gode Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: sea, gasawane lelumu. Dilia Ea balofede dunu ilia sia: ne iasu dafawaneyale dawa: sea, didili hamomu.
Early in the morning they got up and left for the Wilderness of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood up and said, “Hear me, O people of Judah and Jerusalem. Believe in the LORD your God, and you will be upheld; believe in His prophets, and you will succeed.”
21 Yihosiafa: de da dunu huluane ilia fada: i sia: nababeba: le, e da gesami hea: lala dusu dunuma, ilia abula amo da hadigi esoga ga: sa, amo ga: sili, dadi gagui wa: i bisili mogodigili, agoane gesami hea: ma: ne sia: i, ‘Hina Godema nodoma! Bai Ea asigidafa hou da mae fisili, eso huluane dialumu.
Then Jehoshaphat consulted with the people and appointed those who would sing to the LORD and praise the splendor of His holiness. As they went out before the army, they were singing: “Give thanks to the LORD, for His loving devotion endures forever.”
22 Ilia da muni gesami hea: lalu, Hina Gode Ea hamobeba: le, ilima doagala: mu dunu da beda: gia: i.
The moment they began their shouts and praises, the LORD set ambushes against the men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir who had come against Judah, and they were defeated.
23 A: mone amola Moua: be fi dunu da Idome dadi gagui wa: i ilima doagala: le, dafawane gugunufinisi dagoi. Amalalu, A:mone amola Moua: be fi ilia sinidigili, ili gobele nimiwane gegei.
The Ammonites and Moabites rose up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir, devoting them to destruction. And when they had made an end to the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
24 Yuda dadi gagui wa: i dunu da diasu gado gagagula heda: i, hafoga: i soge ganodini dialu, amoga doaga: loba, ilia ha lai ilima ba: loba, dunu huluane osoboga bogoi dialebe ba: i. Dunu afae hame bogoi esalebe hamedafa ba: i.
When the men of Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked for the vast army, but there were only corpses lying on the ground; no one had escaped.
25 Yihosiafa: de da liligi sugumusa: doaga: loba, ilia da bulamagau bagohame, gegesu liligi, abula amola eno noga: idafa liligi dialebe ba: i. Ilia da eso udianaga, amo liligi sugumusa: esalu. Be liligi bagohameba: le, huluane lidimu hamedei ba: i.
Then Jehoshaphat and his people went to carry off the plunder, and they found on the bodies an abundance of goods and valuables —more than they could carry away. They were gathering the plunder for three days because there was so much.
26 Eso biyaduga, ilia da Belaga Fago amoga Hina Gode Ea hamobeba: le, Ema nodomusa: gilisi. Amaiba: le, ilia amo fagoga” Belaga “(nodosu) dio asuli.
On the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Beracah, where they blessed the LORD. Therefore that place is called the Valley of Beracah to this day.
27 Yihosiafa: de da ea dadi gagui wa: i hahawane Yelusalemega oule asi. Bai Hina Gode da ilima ha lai dunu hasasali dagoi.
Then all the men of Judah and Jerusalem, with Jehoshaphat at their head, returned joyfully to Jerusalem, for the LORD had made them rejoice over their enemies.
28 Ilia da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega doaga: loba, ilia da Debolo Diasuga mogodigili ahoanoba, gesami hea: lala dusu dunu da sani baidama dunanu amola dalabede fulabolalu.
So they entered Jerusalem and went into the house of the LORD with harps, lyres, and trumpets.
29 Fifi asi gala huluane amo da Hina Gode da Isala: ili ha lai dunu hasasali dagoi, amo nabaloba, ilia bagadewane bedagia: i.
And the fear of God came upon all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that the LORD had fought against the enemies of Israel.
30 Amaiba: le, Yihosiafa: de da olofoiwane Isala: ili soge ouligi. Amola Gode da ea soge la: idi la: idi gaga: i dagoi.
Then Jehoshaphat’s kingdom was at peace, for his God had given him rest on every side.
31 Yihosiafa: de da lalelegele, ode 35 esalu, e da muni Yuda hina bagade hamoi, amola e da ode 25 agoanega Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esalu, Yuda soge fi ouligilalu. Ea: me da Asiuba (Siailihai idiwi)
So Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He 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.
32 Ea eda A: isa da ea bisili hamoi defele, e da Hina Gode hahawane ba: ma: ne, moloidafa hou hamoi.
And Jehoshaphat walked in the way of his father Asa and did not turn away from it; he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD.
33 Be ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi da hame gugunufinisi ba: i, amola Yuda dunu ilia asigi dawa: su amola gasa huluane amoga, ilia aowalalia Hina Godema hame bu sinidigi.
The high places, however, were not removed; the people had not yet set their hearts on the God of their fathers.
34 Yihosiafa: de ea hou eno huluane, ea muni ouligisu hou amola dagosu ouligisu hou, amo huluane da “Yihiu, Hana: inai egefe ea Hamonana Meloa”, buga eno amo “Yuda hina bagade ilia Hamonanu Meloa”, ea la: idiga dedei, amo ganodini dedene legei.
As for the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, from beginning to end, they are indeed written in the Chronicles of Jehu son of Hanani, which are recorded in the Book of the Kings of Israel.
35 Eso afaega, Yuda hina bagade Yihosiafa: de da wadela: i hamosu Isala: ili hina bagade A: ihasaiama madelai.
Later, Jehoshaphat king of Judah made an alliance with Ahaziah king of Israel, who acted wickedly.
36 Ela da gilisili, hano wayabo bagade bega: moilai Isionegiba, amoga hano wayabo bagade da: iya foga mini masa: ne dusagai gilisi hamoi.
They agreed to make ships to go to Tarshish, and these were built in Ezion-geber.
37 Be Elaisa (Doudafa egefe. E da Malisia moilai bai bagadega misi) da Yihosiafa: dema amane sisane sia: i, “Di da A: ihasaiama madelaiba: le, Hina Gode da dia hamoi liligi gugunufinisimu.” Amalalu, amo dusagai huluane da mugului dagoiba: le, foga hamedafa mini asi.
Then Eliezer son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, “Because you have allied yourself with Ahaziah, the LORD has destroyed your works.” So the ships were wrecked and were unable to sail to Tarshish.
