2 Chronicles 17
1 And Iehosphat his sonne reigned in his steade, and preuailed against Israel.
Yehosafat ɖu fia ɖe fofoa, Asa teƒe eye wòglã eɖokui ɖe Israel fia ŋu.
2 And he put garisons in all the strong cities of Iudah, and set bandes in the lande of Iudah and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.
Eda asrafowo ɖe Yuda du siwo woglã la me kple teƒe vovovowo le dukɔ la me kple Efraim, du siwo fofoa Asa xɔ la me.
3 And the Lord was with Iehoshaphat, because he walked in the first wayes of his father Dauid, and sought not Baalim,
Yehowa nɔ kple Yehosafat elabena ewɔ nu nyui abe ale si fofoa wɔ le eƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe gbãtɔwo me ene eye mesubɔ legbawo o.
4 But sought the Lord God of his father, and walked in his commandements, and not after the trade of Israel.
Ewɔ fofoa ƒe Mawu ƒe sewo dzi eye menɔ abe ame siwo nɔ Israel ene la kura o.
5 Therefore the Lord stablished the kingdome in his hande, and all Iudah brought presents to Iehoshaphat, so that he had of riches and honour in abundance.
Esia ta Yehowa na wòli ke abe Yuda fia ene. Yuda ƒe viwo katã xea woƒe dugawo ale wòzu kesinɔtɔ gã aɖe eye amewo lɔ̃e ŋutɔ.
6 And he lift vp his heart vnto the wayes of the Lord, and he tooke away moreouer the hie places and the groues out of Iudah.
Ezɔ Mawu ƒe mɔwo dzi dzideƒotɔe; ekaka trɔ̃subɔlawo ƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo le togbɛawo dzi eye wòho aƒeliwo gɔ̃ hã.
7 And in the thirde yere of his reigne he sent his princes, Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethaneel, and Michaiah, that they should teach in the cities of Iudah,
Le eƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe etɔ̃lia me la, eɖo ame aɖewo ɖa be woafia nu amewo le Yuda duwo me. Ame siawoe nye Ben Hail, Obadia, Zekaria, Netanel kple Mikaya.
8 And with them Leuites, Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehonathan, and Adoniiah, and Tobiiah, and Tob-adoniiah, Leuites, and with the Elishama and Iehoram Priestes.
Levi ƒe vi asieke kple nunɔla eve kpe ɖe wo ŋu. Levi ƒe viawoe nye Semaya, Netania, Zebadia, Asahel, Semiramɔt, Yehonatan, Adoniya, Tobiya, Tob Adoniya kpakple nunɔlawo Elisama kple Yehoram.
9 And they taught in Iudah, and had the booke of the Lawe of the Lord with them, and went about throughout all the cities of Iudah, and taught the people.
Wotsɔ Yehowa ƒe Segbalẽ la ɖe asi, hetsa le Yuda duwo katã me eye wofia Ŋɔŋlɔ Kɔkɔe la ameawo.
10 And the feare of the Lord fell vpon all the kingdomes of ye lands that were round about Iudah, and they fought not against Iehoshaphat.
Vɔvɔ̃ na Yehowa dze fiaɖuƒe siwo ƒo xlã Yuda la dzi ale wo dometɔ aɖeke meho aʋa ɖe Yehosafat ŋu o.
11 Also some of the Philistims brought Iehoshaphat giftes and tribute siluer, and the Arabians brought him flockes, seuen thousande and seuen hundreth rammes, and seuen thousande and seuen hundreth hee goates.
Filistitɔ aɖewo gɔ̃ hã tsɔ nunanawo vɛ nɛ eye wodzɔa nu nɛ ƒe sia ƒe. Nu siwo Arabiatɔwo nae la woe nye: agbo akpe adre alafa adre kple gbɔ̃tsu akpe adre alafa adre.
12 So Iehoshaphat prospered and grewe vp on hie: and he built in Iudah palaces and cities of store.
Ale Yehosafat kpɔ ŋusẽ ŋutɔ; etu mɔwo eye wòtso nudzraɖoƒe duwo ɖe Yudanyigba ƒe akpa ɖe sia ɖe dzi.
13 And he had great workes in the cities of Iudah, and men of warre, and valiant men in Ierusalem.
Ewɔ ɖoɖowo ɖe dukɔmedɔ geɖewo wɔwɔ ŋu eye wòda aʋakɔ gã aɖe ɖe Yerusalem, si nye eƒe fiadu la me.
14 And these are the nombers of them after the house of their fathers, In Iudah were captaines of thousands, Adnah the captaine, and with him of valiant men three hundreth thousande.
Woƒe xexlẽme le woƒe ƒomewo nu nɔ ale: tso Yuda la, aʋawɔla akpe ɖekaɖekawo nunɔlawo nɔ anyi eye aʋawɔla akpe alafa etɔ̃ nɔ woƒe aʋafia, Adna te.
15 And at his hande Iehohanan a captaine, and with him two hundreth and fourescore thousande.
Yehohanan nye aʋafia si kplɔe ɖo eye wònɔ aʋawɔla akpe alafa eve blaenyi nu.
16 And at his hande Amasiah the sonne of Zichri, which willingly offered him selfe vnto the Lord, and with him two hundreth thousand valiant men.
Ame si kplɔ eya hã ɖoe nye Amasia, Zikri ƒe vi, ame si nye mawuvɔ̃la akuaku aɖe; eya kpɔ aʋawɔla akpe alafa eve dzi.
17 And of Beniamin, Eliada a valiant man, and with him armed men with bowe and shielde two hundreth thousand.
Aʋawɔla akpe alafa eve tso Benyamin ƒe viwo dome; wotsɔ datiwo, aŋutrɔwo kple akpoxɔnuwo eye wonɔ aʋafia xɔŋkɔ Eliada te.
18 And at his hand Iehozabad, and with him an hundreth and fourescore thousand armed to the warre.
Ame si kplɔe ɖo lae nye Yehozabad eye wòkplɔ aʋawɔla akpe alafa ɖeka blaenyi, ame siwo xɔ hehe nyuie.
19 These waited on the King, besides those which the King put in the strong cities thoroughout all Iudah.
Aʋawɔla siawo nɔ Yerusalem kpe ɖe esiwo fia la da ɖe du siwo woglã le dukɔ blibo la me la ŋuti.
