< 2 Chronicles 19 >
1 When Jehoshaphat king of Judah had returned safely to his home in Jerusalem,
Sa’ad da Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda ya dawo zuwa fadansa a Urushalima lafiya,
2 Jehu son of Hanani the seer went out to confront him and said to King Jehoshaphat, “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the LORD? Because of this, the wrath of the LORD is upon you.
Yehu mai duba, ɗan Hanani, ya fita don yă tarye shi, ya kuma ce wa sarki, “Ya yi kyau ke nan da ka taimaki mugu ka kuma ƙaunaci waɗanda suke ƙin Ubangiji? Da yake ka yi haka fushin Ubangiji yana a kanka
3 However, some good is found in you, for you have removed the Asherah poles from the land and have set your heart on seeking God.”
Duk da haka an sami wani abin kirki a wurinka, gama ka kawar da ginshiƙan Ashera a ƙasar, ka kuma sa zuciyarka a kan neman Allah.”
4 Jehoshaphat lived in Jerusalem, and once again he went out among the people from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim and turned them back to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
Yehoshafat ya zauna a Urushalima, ya kuma fita yana shiga cikin mutane daga Beyersheba zuwa ƙasar tudun Efraim ya kuma juyar da su ga Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu.
5 He appointed judges in the land, in each of the fortified cities of Judah.
Ya naɗa alƙalai a kowanne daga cikin biranen katanga na Yahuda a ƙasar.
6 Then he said to the judges, “Consider carefully what you do, for you are not judging for man, but for the LORD, who is with you when you render judgment.
Ya faɗa musu, “Ku lura da abin da kuke yi, gama shari’ar da kuke yi ba ta mutum ba ce, amma ta Ubangiji ce, yana tare da ku sa’ad da kuke yanke shari’a.
7 And now, may the fear of the LORD be upon you. Be careful what you do, for with the LORD our God there is no injustice or partiality or bribery.”
Yanzu fa ku ji tsoron Ubangiji. Ku yi hankali a kan abin da kuke yi, gama Ubangiji Allahnmu ba ya sonkai ko nuna wariya ko cin hanci.”
8 Moreover, Jehoshaphat appointed in Jerusalem some of the Levites, priests, and heads of the Israelite families to judge on behalf of the LORD and to settle disputes. And they lived in Jerusalem.
A Urushalima kuma, Yehoshafat ya naɗa waɗansu Lawiyawa, firistoci da kawunan iyalan Isra’ilawa don su tabbatar da an bi dokar Ubangiji, su kuma sasanta tsakanin mutane. A Urushalima za su zauna.
9 He commanded them, saying, “You must serve faithfully and wholeheartedly in the fear of the LORD.
Ya ba su waɗannan umarnai, “Ku yi aikinku da aminci da tsoron Ubangiji da dukan zuciyarku.
10 For every dispute that comes before you from your brothers who dwell in their cities—whether it regards bloodshed or some other violation of law, commandments, statutes, or ordinances—you are to warn them, so that they will not incur guilt before the LORD and wrath will not come upon you and your brothers. Do this, and you will not incur guilt.
Cikin kowane batun da ya zo gabanku daga’yan’uwanku waɗanda suke zama a birane, ko batun na kisa ne ko kuwa waɗansu batuttuwan da suka shafi doka, umarnai, ƙa’idodi ko farillai, dole ku ja musu kunne kada su yi wa Ubangiji zunubi; in ba haka ba fushinsa zai sauko a kanku da’yan’uwanku. Ku yi wannan, ta haka ba za ku kuwa yi zunubi ba.
11 Note that Amariah, the chief priest, will be over you in all that pertains to the LORD, and Zebadiah son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, in all that pertains to the king. And the Levites will serve as officers before you. Act resolutely; may the LORD be with the upright!”
“Amariya, babban firist, shi ne zai shugabance ku a kan dukan al’amuran da suke na wajen Ubangiji, Zebadiya ɗan Ishmayel kuwa, shugabanku a kan dukan al’amuran da suka shafi sarki, Lawiyawa kuma za su zama a matsayin manya a gabanku. Ku yi abubuwa da ƙarfin hali, bari kuma Ubangiji yă kasance tare da masu yin gaskiya.”
