< 2 Chronicles 17 >

1 And Josaphat his son reigned in his stead, and grew strong against Israel.
Asa capa Jehoshaphat anih yueng la manghai tih Israel te a ning thil.
2 And he placed numbers of soldiers in all the fortified cities of Juda. And he put garrisons in the land of Juda, and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.
Tatthai te Judah khopuei boeih ah cakrhuet la a khueh tih Judah khohmuen ah khaw a napa Asa loh a loh Ephraim khopuei rhoek ah khaw khohung a khueh.
3 And the Lord was with Josaphat, because he walked in the first ways of David his father: and trusted not in Baalim,
A napa David kah longpuei ah a pongpa dongah Jehoshaphat te BOEIPA loh a om puei. Lamhma ah khaw Baal te a toem moenih.
4 But in the God of his father, and walk in his commandments, and not according to the sins of Israel.
Tedae a napa kah Pathen te a toem. A olpaek neh pongpa tih Israel khoboe bangla om pawh.
5 And the Lord established the kingdom in his hand, and all Juda brought presents to Josaphat: and he acquired immense riches, and much glory.
BOEIPA loh ram te anih kut ah a cikngae sak tih Judah pum loh Jehoshaphat taengla khocang a paek uh. Te dongah anih te a cungkuem dongah khuehtawn neh thangpomnah neh om.
6 And when his heart had taken courage for the ways of the Lord, he took away also the high places and the groves out of Juda.
A lungbuei te BOEIPA kah longpuei la a phoh tih hmuensang neh Asherah te Judah lamloh a khoe bal.
7 And in the third year of his reign, he sent of his princes Benhail, and Abdias, and Zacharias, and Nathanael, and Micheas, to teach in the cities of Juda:
A manghai kah a kum thum dongah tah Judah khopuei khui kah te tukkil sak hamla a mangpa rhoek Benhail, Obadiah, Zekhariah, Nethanel neh Mikaiah a tueih.
8 And with them the Levites, Semeias, and Nathanias, and Zabadias, and Asael, and Semiramoth, and Jonathan, and Adonias, and Tobias, and Thobadonias Levites, and with them Elisama, and Joram priests.
Amih taengah Levi Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jonathan, Adonijah, Tobiah neh Levi Tobadonijah om tih amih taengah Elishama neh Jehoram khosoih la om.
9 And they taught the people in Juda, having with them the book of the law of the Lord: and they went about all the cities of Juda, and instructed the people.
Judah khui ah a tukkil uh phoeiah amamih taengkah BOEIPA olkhueng cabu neh Judah khopuei boeih te a hil uh tih pilnam te a tukkil uh.
10 And the fear of the Lord came upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Juda, and they durst not make war against Josaphat.
Te vaengah Judah kaepvai kah diklai ram tom ah BOEIPA taengkah birhihnah om tih Jehoshaphat te vathoh uh thil pawh.
11 The Philistines also brought presents to Josaphat, and tribute in silver, and the Arabians brought him cattle, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and as many he goats.
Philisti lamkah khaw Jehoshaphat taengah khocang neh hnorhuh la cak a khuen uh. Arab long khaw anih taengah boiva a khuen pah tih tutal thawng rhih ya rhih neh maaetal thawng rhih ya rhih lo.
12 And Josaphat grew, and became exceeding great: and he built in Juda houses like towers, and walled cities.
Jehoshaphat tah pongpa tih a soi duela a boeilen dongah Judah ah rhalmah im neh rhuengim khopuei te a sak.
13 And he prepared many works in the cities of Juda: and he had warriors, and valiant men in Jerusalem.
Anih kah bitat he Judah kah khopuei ah muep om tih caemtloek hlang la tatthai hlangrhalh te Jerusalem ah om.
14 Of whom this is the number of the houses and families of every one: in Juda captains of the army, Ednas the chief, and with him three hundred thousand most valiant men.
He rhoek he a napa rhoek imkhui lamloh amih cawhnah ni. Judah lamkah thawngkhat mangpa rhoek tah mangpa Adnah neh a taengkah tatthai hlangrhalh he thawng ya thum lo.
15 After him Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand.
A kut dongkah mangpa Jehohanan neh a taengkah rhoek khaw thawng yahnih neh thawng sawmrhet lo.
16 And after him was Amasias the son of Zechri, consecrated to the Lord, and with him were two hundred thousand valiant men.
Anih kut ah BOEIPA ham aka puhlu Zikhri capa Amasiah neh a taengkah tatthai hlangrhalh he thawng yahnih lo.
17 After him was Eliada valiant in battle, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bow and shield.
Benjamin lamkah tatthai hlangrhalh Eliada neh anih taengkah lii neh photling aka muk rhoek te thawng yahnih lo.
18 After him also was Jozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready for war.
Tekah kut dongkah Jehozabad neh anih taengkah thawng yakhat neh thawng sawmrhet tah caempuei la pumcum uh.
19 All these were at the hand of the king, beside others, whom he had put in the walled cities, in all Juda.
He rhoek tah manghai loh Judah pum kah hmuencak khopuei ah amah la a paek phoei lamkah manghai taengkah aka thotat rhoek ni.
