2 Chronicles 19
1 And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
Yeroo Yehooshaafaax mootiin Yihuudaa nagaadhaan gara masaraa isaa Yerusaalemitti deebiʼetti,
2 And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Should you help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore is wrath upon you from before the LORD.
Yehuun raajichi ilmi Hanaanii sun isa simachuuf baʼee akkana isaan jedhe; “Ati nama hamaa gargaaruu fi warra Waaqayyoon jibban jaallachuu qabdaa? Kanaafuu dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo sitti dhufeera.
3 Nevertheless there are good things found in you, in that you have taken away the groves out of the land, and have prepared your heart to seek God.
Taʼus waan ati siidaawwan Aasheeraa barbadeessitee fi sababii garaan kee Waaqa barbaaduudhaaf qophaaʼaa taʼeef wanni gaariin si biratti argameera.”
4 And Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem: and he went out again through the people from Beersheba to mount Ephraim, and brought them back unto the LORD God of their fathers.
Yehooshaafaax Yerusaalem keessa jiraate; innis Bersheebaadhaa hamma biyya gaaraa Efreemitti saba gidduu deemee akka isaan gara Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaaniitti deebiʼan godhe.
5 And he set judges in the land throughout all the fenced cities of Judah, city by city,
Innis biyya sana keessatti magaalaawwan Yihuudaa kanneen dallaa jabaa qaban hundatti abbootii murtii muude.
6 And said to the judges, Take heed what all of you do: for all of you judge not for man, but for the LORD, who is with you in the judgment.
Akkanas jedheen; “Waan hojjettan qalbeeffadhaa; Waaqayyo isa yeroo isin murtii kennitanitti isin wajjin jiru sanaaf jettaniiti malee namaaf jettanii murtii hin kennitaniitii.
7 Wherefore now let the fear of the LORD be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the LORD our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.
Waaqayyoon sodaachuun isin keessa haa jiraatu. Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqa keenya bira dabni yookaan wal caalchisuun yookaan mattaʼaa fudhachuun hin jirreef of eeggannaadhaan murtii kennaa.”
8 Moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set of the Levites, and of the priests, and of the chief of the fathers of Israel, for the judgment of the LORD, and for controversies, when they returned to Jerusalem.
Yehooshaafaax akkasumas Yerusaalem keessatti akka isaan seera Waaqayyoo eegsisanii dubbii wal dhabiisaatiif illee araara buusaniif Lewwota, lubootaa fi hangafoota maatiiwwan Israaʼel tokko tokko muude. Isaanis Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan.
9 And he charged them, saying, Thus shall all of you do in the fear of the LORD, faithfully, and with a perfect heart.
Innis akkana jedhee isaan ajaje; “Isin amanamummaa fi garaa guutuun Waaqayyoon sodaachaa tajaajiluu qabdu.
10 And what cause whatsoever shall come to you of your brethren that dwell in your cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, all of you shall even warn them that they trespass not against the LORD, and so wrath come upon you, and upon your brethren: this do, and all of you shall not trespass.
Himatawwan namoota biyya keessanii kanneen magaalaa keessa jiraatan irraa waaʼee dhiiga dhangalaasuu yookaan waaʼee seeraa, waaʼee ajajawwanii, waaʼee labsii yookaan qajeelcha diduu irratti gara keessan dhufan, akka isaan Waaqayyotti cubbuu hin hojjenneef akeekkachiisaa. Yoo kanaa achii dheekkamsi isaa isinii fi obboloota keessanitti ni dhufaa. Waan kana godhaa; isinis cubbuu hin hojjettan.
11 And, behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the LORD; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, for all the king's matters: also the Levites shall be officers before you. Deal courageously, and the LORD shall be with the good.
“Waan kan Waaqayyoo taʼe kam irratti iyyuu Amariyaan lubichi hangafti, waan kan mootii taʼe kam irratti iyyuu Zebaadiyaan ilmi Ishmaaʼeel hoogganaan gosa Yihuudaa isin irratti muudamaniiru; Lewwonni immoo qondaaltota taʼanii fuula keessan dura ni tajaajilu. Jabaadhaa hojjedhaa; Waaqayyo warra waan gaarii hojjettan wajjin haa jiraatu.”
