Hagi Jahazieli'a amanage hu'ne, Mika Juda vahe'ma, Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahe'motane kini ne' Jehosafetiganena antahiho, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie, ha'ma huramante'naku'ma, tusi'a sondia vahekrerfamo'zama aza vahekura tamahirahikura huta korora osiho, na'ankure ama hara tamagri hara omne'neanki, Anumzamofo ha' me'ne.
16 Mawa mupite mukamenyane nawo. Adzakhala akubwera mokweza kudzera Njira ya Zizi, ndipo mukawapeza kumapeto kwa chigwa cha ku chipululu cha Yeruweli.
Oki'na uramita hara ome huzmanteho. Zamagra Zizi krahopinti marerigahazankita Jerueli hagege kokamofo zage hanati kaziga ome zamagegahaze.
17 Sikudzafunika kuti Inu mumenyane nawo pa nkhondo imeneyi. Inu mukhale pa malo anu; imani molimba ndipo onani chipulumutso chimene Yehova adzakupatsani, Inu Yuda ndi Yerusalemu. Musaope, musataye mtima. Pitani kuti mukakumane nawo mawa, ndipo Yehova adzakhala nanu.’”
Tamagra ama ana hapina hara osugahazanki, oti hankavetita retrohuta manineta Ra Anumzamo'ma tamagritegama anteno tamagu'ma vaziniana keho. Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemi vahe'mota korora nehuta tamahirahikura osiho. Ra Anumzamo'a tamagrane manigahianki, okina hara ome huzmanteho.
18 Yehosafati anaweramitsa nkhope yake ndi kugunda pansi, ndiponso anthu onse a Yuda ndi Yerusalemu anagwa pansi ndi kulambira Yehova.
Anage'ma higeno'a, Jehosafati'a mopafi renaregeno, Juda vahe'mo'zane, Jerusalemima nemaniza vahe'mo'zanena Ra Anumzamofo avuga zamarena re'za kepri hu'za Ra Anumzamofona monora hunte'naze.

20 Mmamawa, ananyamuka kupita ku chipululu cha Tekowa. Akunyamuka, Yehosafati anayimirira ndipo anati, “Tandimverani ine anthu a Yuda ndi Yerusalemu! Khalani ndi chikhulupiriro mwa Yehova Mulungu wanu ndipo mudzatchinjirizidwa, khalani ndi chikhulupiriro mwa aneneri ake ndipo mudzapambana.”
Hagi nanterame oti'za hagege kokampi Tekoa vu'naze. Hagi anama nevazageno'a, Jehosafati'a otino amanage hu'ne, Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemima nemaniza vahe'enena kama antahiho, Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofonte tamentintia hinkeno tamagu vazino tamaza nehina, Agri kasnampa vahetmimofo kere tamentinti nehuta, knarera huta manigahaze.
21 Atafunsira kwa anthu, Yehosafati anasankha anthu oti ayimbire Yehova ndi kumutamanda chifukwa cha ulemerero wa chiyero chake pamene amapita ali patsogolo pa gulu la ankhondo, akunena kuti: “Yamikani Yehova pakuti chikondi chake ndi chosatha.”
Hagi zamavare atru huno ana nanekema zmasamiteno'a, ruotge'ma hu'nea kukena hu'neza vugote'za nevu'za zagamera hu'za Ra Anumzamofoma agima ahentesgama hanaza vahetami zamazeri oti'ne. Hagi anama hutege'za amanage hu'za ana zagamera hu'naze, Ra Anumzamofona susu huntone, na'ankure avesirante'nea zamo'a mevava huno vugahie.
22 Atangoyamba kuyimba ndi kutamanda, Yehova anapereka mʼmanja mwawo anthu a ku Amoni ndi a ku Mowabu ndiponso a ku Phiri la Seiri amene amalimbana ndi Yuda, ndipo anagonjetsedwa.
Anagema hutege'za agafa hu'za zagamera ranke hu'za nehazageno Amoni vahe'ma, Moapu vahe'ma, Seiri agonafima nemaniza vahetaminena Ra Anumzamo'a agafa huno zamazeri savri hige'za, hara zamagra zamagra hu'za ohefri ahefria hu'naze.
23 Anthu a ku Amoni ndi a ku Mowabu anawukira anthu ochokera ku Phiri la Seiri, ndipo anawawononga ndi kuwatheratu. Atatsiriza kuwapha anthu ochokera ku Seiri anamenyana wina ndi mnzake mpaka kuwonongana.

27 Tsono motsogozedwa ndi Yehosafati, anthu onse a Yuda ndi Yerusalemu anabwerera ku Yerusalemu mokondwera pakuti Yehova anawagonjetsera adani awo.
Ana hutazageno Jehosafati'a vugota huzmantege'za maka Juda vahetamine, Jerusalemima nemaniza vahe'mo'zanena Ra Anumzamo'ma ha' vahe'zmima ha'ma huzmagaterea zanku zagame nehu'za tusi muse hume Jerusalemi vu'naze.

33 Komabe malo opembedzerapo mafano sanachotsedwe ndipo anthu sanaperekebe mitima yawo kwa Mulungu wa makolo awo.
Hianagi havi anumzante'ma mono hunentaza kumatmina eri haviza osu'neanki'za, vahe'mo'za zmafahemofo Anumzantera zamagu'aretira hu'za amagera onte'naze.
34 Zochitika zina zokhudza ufumu wa Yehosafati, kuyambira pachiyambi mpaka pa mapeto, zalembedwa mʼbuku la Yehu mwana wa Hanani, zomwe zikupezeka mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli.
