< 2 Chronicles 19 >

1 When Jehoshaphat king of Judah had returned safely to his home in Jerusalem,
Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun acn Judah el moul foloko nu in lohm sin tokosra in acn Jerusalem.
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.
Mwet palu Jehu, wen natul Hanani, el som in osun nu sin tokosra ac fahk nu sel, “Ku kom nunku mu wo in kasru mwet koluk, ac in wi layen lun mwet su kwase LEUM GOD? Ma kom oru inge pa pwanang kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD in tuku nu fom.
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.”
Tuh finne ouinge, oasr na ma wo in kom. Kom kunausla ma sruloala nukewa kacl god mutan Asherah su mwet uh alu nu kac, ac kom sang insiom in fahsr tukun ma lungse lun God.”
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.
Tokosra Jehoshaphat el finne muta in acn Jerusalem, el forfor pacl nukewa inmasrlon mwet lal, mutawauk Beersheba in acn eir, nwe ke sisken infulan eol in acn Ephraim nu epang, tuh elan folokonma mwet uh nu sin LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos.
5 He appointed judges in the land, in each of the fortified cities of Judah.
El srisrngiya mwet nununku nu in kais sie siti kuhlusyukyak in acn Judah,
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.
ac fahk nu selos, “Karinganang ma kowos wotela ke pacl in nununku lowos uh. Kowos tia orekma ke ku lun mwet, a ke ku lun LEUM GOD. El ac wi kowos in orala nununku suwohs.
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.”
Akfulatye LEUM GOD ac taran orekma lowos, mweyen LEUM GOD lasr El tia lela in oasr kutasrik, ku wiwikas, ku eis mol sin mwet orek eyeinse.”
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.
In acn Jerusalem Jehoshaphat el srisrngiya mwet Levi, mwet tol, ac sifen sou, in mwet nununku ke pacl oasr lainyen ma sap lun LEUM GOD, ku ke amei inmasrlon mwet in siti sac.
9 He commanded them, saying, “You must serve faithfully and wholeheartedly in the fear of the LORD.
El fahk suwoswos nu selos, “Ke kowos oru orekma lowos, kowos enenu in oru in akfulatye LEUM GOD, ac kowos in oaru in aksol in ma nukewa kowos oru.
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.
Kutena pacl mwet liwos fin tuku liki siti selos ac use tukak ke akmas, ku ke kutena lumah ma lain ma sap ac ma oakwuk, kowos enenu in akkalemye nu selos ouiya fal elos in oru ke pacl in nununku, tuh elos in tia tafongla ac oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD. Kowos fin tia oru ouinge, kowos ac mwet liwos ac fah pula kasrkusrak lulap lun LEUM GOD. A kowos fin oru ma kunowos in wo, na ac fah wangin mwatuwos.
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!”
Amariah, Mwet Tol Fulat, pa ac oru nununku safla ke ip lun alu, ac Zebadiah wen natul Ishmael, governor lun Judah, pa ac oru nununku safla ke ip lun government. Ma kunen mwet Levi in liye tuh ma wotla nukewa ke pacl in nununku in fahla oana ma wotla. Kowos in pulaik na in karingin ma inge, ac lela LEUM GOD Elan wi layen ma suwohs!”
