2 Kronická 17
1 I kraloval Jozafat syn jeho místo něho, a zmocnil se Izraele.
And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, —and strengthened himself against Israel;
2 I osadil lidem válečným všecka města hrazená v Judstvu, a postavil stráž v zemi Judské a v městech Efraim, kteráž byl zdobýval Aza otec jeho.
and put forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, —and set garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had captured.
3 A byl Hospodin s Jozafatem; nebo chodil po cestách Davida otce svého prvních, aniž hledal modl.
And it came to pass, that, Yahweh, was with Jehoshaphat, —because he walked in the first ways of David his father, and sought not unto the Baalim;
4 Ale Boha otce svého hledal, a v přikázaních jeho chodil, aniž následoval skutků lidu Izraelského.
for, unto the God of his father, he sought, and, in his commandments, he walked, —and not according to the doing of Israel.
5 I utvrdil Hospodin království v ruce jeho, a dal všecken lid Judský dary Jozafatovi, tak že měl bohatství a slávy hojně.
Therefore did Yahweh establish the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah gave a present unto Jehoshaphat, —and he came to have riches and honour, in abundance.
6 A nabyv udatného srdce k cestám Hospodinovým, zkazil přesto také i výsosti a háje v Judstvu.
And his heart was encouraged, in the ways of Yahweh, —and he, yet further, took away the high places and the Sacred Stems, out of Judah.
7 Léta pak třetího království svého poslal knížata svá: Benchaile, Abdiáše, Zachariáše, Natanaele a Micheáše, aby učili v městech Judských.
And, in the third year of his reign, he sent to his rulers, even to Ben-hail and to Obadiah and to Zechariah, and to Nethanel, and to Micaiah, —that they were to teach throughout the cities of Judah;
8 A s nimi Levíty: Semaiáše, Netaniáše, Zebadiáše, Azaele, Semiramota, Jonatana, Adoniáše, Tobiáše a Tobadoniáše, Levíty, a s nimi Elisama a Jehorama, kněží,
and, with them, Levites, Shemaiah and Nethaniah and Zebadiah and Asahel and Shemiramoth and Jehonathan, and Adonijah and Tobijah and Tob-adonijah, Levites, —and, with them, Elishama and Jehoram, priests;
9 Kteříž učili v Judstvu, majíce s sebou knihu zákona Hospodinova. Chodili pak vůkol po všech městech Judských, vyučujíce lid.
and they taught throughout Judah, and, with them, was the book of the law of Yahweh, —so they went round throughout all the cities of Judah, and taught the people.
10 I byl strach Hospodinův na všech královstvích zemí, kteréž byly vůkol Judstva, tak že nebojovali proti Jozafatovi.
And it came to pass, that, the dread of Yahweh, was upon all the kingdoms of the countries, that were round about Judah, —and they warred not against Jehoshaphat.
11 Nýbrž i Filistinští přinášeli Jozafatovi dary a berni uloženou. Arabští také přiháněli jemu dobytky, skopců po sedmi tisících a sedmi stech, též kozlů po sedmi tisících a sedmi stech.
And, from among the Philistines, were they bringing in unto Jehoshaphat a present, and silver as tribute, —even the Arabians, were bringing in unto him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats.
12 I prospíval Jozafat, a rostl až na nejvyšší, a vystavěl v Judstvu zámky a města k skladům.
And so it came to pass that, Jehoshaphat, went on waxing surpassingly great, —and he built, throughout Judah, fortresses and cities for store;
13 A práci mnohou vedl při městech Judských, muže pak válečné a slovoutné měl v Jeruzalémě.
and, much business, had he, throughout the cities of Judah, —but, the men of war, the heroes of valour, were in Jerusalem.
14 A tento jest počet jich po domích otců jejich: Z Judy knížata nad tisíci: Adna kníže, a s ním udatných rytířů třikrát sto tisíc.
And, these, are the numbers of them, by their ancestral house, —To Judah, pertained rulers of thousands, Adnah the chief, and, with him, mighty men of valour, three hundred thousand;
15 A po něm Jochanan kníže, a s ním dvě stě a osmdesát tisíc.
and, under his direction, was Jehohanan the chief, —and, with him, two hundred and eighty thousand;
16 Po něm Amaziáš syn Zichrův, kterýž se dobrovolně byl oddal Hospodinu, a při něm dvakrát sto tisíc mužů udatných.
and, under his direction, Amasiah son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself unto Yahweh, —and, with him, two hundred thousand heroes of valour.
17 Z Beniamina pak muž udatný Eliada, a s ním lidu zbrojného s lučišti a pavézami dvakrát sto tisíc.
And, out of Benjamin, a hero of valour, Eliada, —and, with him, armed with bow and buckler, two hundred thousand;
18 A po něm Jozabad, a s ním sto a osmdesát tisíc způsobných k boji.
and, under his direction, Jehozabad, —and, with him, a hundred and eighty thousand, equipped for war.
19 Ti sloužili králi, kromě těch, kteréž byl osadil král po městech hrazených po všem Judstvu.
These, were they who were waiting upon the king, —besides those whom the king placed in the fortified cities, throughout all Judah.
