2 Chronicles 17
1 Asa’s son Jehoshaphat reigned in his place, and he strengthened himself against Israel.
Asa capa Jehoshaphat ni a na pa yueng siangpahrang a tawk teh, Isarel tuk hanelah tha a sai sak.
2 He stationed troops in every fortified city of Judah and put garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim that his father Asa had captured.
Judah ram dawk rapan ka tawn e kho pueng koe ransanaw a hruek. Judah ram hoi a na pa Asa ni a la e Ephraim ram dawk e khonaw dawk ramvengnaw a hruek.
3 Now the LORD was with Jehoshaphat because he walked in the earlier ways of his father David. He did not seek out the Baals,
Jehoshaphat koe BAWIPA ao, bangkongtetpawiteh, a na pa Devit ni a dawn e lamthung a dawn teh Baal cathut tawng hoeh.
4 but he sought the God of his father and walked by His commandments rather than the practices of Israel.
A na pa e Cathut dueng a tawng teh, Isarel lamthung a roun teh kâpoelawk a tarawi.
5 So the LORD established the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah brought him tribute, so that he had an abundance of riches and honor.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni ahnie kut dawk uknaeram a caksak teh, Judah ram e tami pueng ni, Jehoshaphat koe tamuk a poe, dawkvah, a tangreng teh a bawilen poung.
6 And his heart took delight in the ways of the LORD; furthermore, he removed the high places and Asherah poles from Judah.
BAWIPA e lamthung dawk a lunghawi teh, Judah ram dawk e karasang e hmuennaw hoi meikaphawk thingnaw pueng koung a raphoe.
7 In the third year of his reign, Jehoshaphat sent his officials Ben-hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah to teach in the cities of Judah,
A bawinae kum thum navah, kahrawikung Benhail, Obadiah, Zekhariah, Nethanel hoi Mikhaiah tinaw hah taminaw cangkhai hanelah Judah ram khopuinaw koe a patoun.
8 accompanied by certain Levites—Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tob-adonijah—along with the priests Elishama and Jehoram.
Levih tami Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Adonijah, Tobiah hoi Tobadinijah taminaw hai a bawk van. Hahoi vaihma Elishama hoi Jehoram hai a bawk roi van.
9 They taught throughout Judah, taking with them the Book of the Law of the LORD. They went throughout the towns of Judah and taught the people.
BAWIPA e kâlawk cauk a sin awh teh, Judah ram dawk a cangkhai awh.
10 And the dread of the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands that surrounded Judah, so that they did not make war against Jehoshaphat.
Judah tengpam e uknaeram pueng ni hai BAWIPA a taki awh teh, apinihai Jehoshaphat tuk ngam hoeh.
11 Some Philistines also brought gifts and silver as tribute to Jehoshaphat, and the Arabs brought him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats from their flocks.
Filistin e tami tangawn ni hai Jehoshaphat poehno a poe awh. Tamuk hanelah ngun tangka a poe awh. Arabianaw ni hai tu 7700, hmae 7700 touh a poe awh.
12 Jehoshaphat grew stronger and stronger, and he built fortresses and store cities in Judah
Jehoshaphat teh a tha hoehoe a sai teh Judah ram dawk ramveng im hoi hnopai hruek nahane a sak.
13 and kept vast supplies in the cities of Judah. He also had warriors in Jerusalem who were mighty men of valor.
Judah khopuinaw dawk thaw moi a tawn teh, Jerusalem vah tarankahawi ni teh athakaawme taminaw moikapap a tawn.
14 These are their numbers according to the houses of their fathers: From Judah, the commanders of thousands: Adnah the commander, and with him 300,000 mighty men of valor;
Hetnaw teh a napanaw imthung lahoi touk e doeh. Judah thung hoi ransabawi 1,000 touh, Adnah hoi a kut rahim kaawm e tarankahawi ni teh athakaawme tami 300,000,
15 next to him, Jehohanan the commander, and with him 280,000;
Apâhni lah Jehoshaphat ni 280,000 a uk.
16 and next to him, Amasiah son of Zichri, the volunteer for the LORD, and with him 200,000 mighty men of valor.
A pâthum lah Zekhariah capa Amasiah teh a ma lungtho lahoi BAWIPA koe a kâpasoung teh, tarankahawi ni teh athakaawme 200,000 touh a uk.
17 From Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valor, and with him 200,000 armed with bows and shields;
Benjamin imthung dawk e a thakasai, tarankahawi e, sene hoi bahling ka patuem e tami 200000 touh Eliada ni a uk.
18 and next to him, Jehozabad, and with him 180,000 armed for battle.
A hnukkhu Jehozabad ni tarankahawi ni teh athakaawme 180000 touh a uk.
19 These were the men who served the king, besides those he stationed in the fortified cities throughout Judah.
Hetnaw pueng teh siangpahrang e thaw katawkkungnaw doeh. Hetnaw hloilah Judah ram rapan ka tawn e kho tangkuem koe siangpahrang ni a hruek e ao rah.
