2 Chronicles 17
1 Asa's son Jehoshaphat took over as king. He strengthened his country's defenses against Israel.
Asa capa Jehoshaphat ni a na pa yueng siangpahrang a tawk teh, Isarel tuk hanelah tha a sai sak.
2 He assigned troops to every fortified city of Judah and placed garrisons throughout Judah and in the towns 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 The Lord supported Jehoshaphat because he followed the ways of his father David. He did not believe in 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 worshiped the God of his father and obeyed his commandments, unlike what the kingdom of Israel was doing.
A na pa e Cathut dueng a tawng teh, Isarel lamthung a roun teh kâpoelawk a tarawi.
5 So the Lord made Jehoshaphat's hold on the kingdom secure, and all the people of Judah paid their dues to him. As a result he became very wealthy and highly honored.
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 He was sincerely committed to what the Lord wanted. He also 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 towns 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 He sent along with the them Levites named Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tobadonijah, and with them 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 Taking with them the Book of the Law of the Lord they taught as they went around Judah. They visited all the towns of Judah, teaching the people.
BAWIPA e kâlawk cauk a sin awh teh, Judah ram dawk a cangkhai awh.
10 All the surrounding kingdoms were in awe of the Lord, so that they did not attack Jehoshaphat.
Judah tengpam e uknaeram pueng ni hai BAWIPA a taki awh teh, apinihai Jehoshaphat tuk ngam hoeh.
11 Some of the Philistines even brought him gifts and silver, while the Arabians brought him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats.
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 increasingly powerful, and he built fortresses and storehouse towns in Judah.
Jehoshaphat teh a tha hoehoe a sai teh Judah ram dawk ramveng im hoi hnopai hruek nahane a sak.
13 He maintained a great deal of supplies in the towns of Judah. He also had troops, experienced warriors, in Jerusalem.
Judah khopuinaw dawk thaw moi a tawn teh, Jerusalem vah tarankahawi ni teh athakaawme taminaw moikapap a tawn.
14 This is a count of them, according to their family lines: from Judah, the commanders of thousands: Adnah the commander, and 300,000 mighty warriors with him;
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 then Jehohanan the commander, and 280,000 with him;
Apâhni lah Jehoshaphat ni 280,000 a uk.
16 then Amasiah, son of Zichri, who volunteered to serve the Lord, and 200,000 mighty warriors with him;
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 warrior, and 200,000 with him 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 then Jehozabad, and 180,000 with him ready for battle;
A hnukkhu Jehozabad ni tarankahawi ni teh athakaawme 180000 touh a uk.
19 These were the men who served the king, in addition those he assigned to the fortified towns 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.
