2 Chronicles 17
1 And Jehoshaphat his son became king in his stead, and strengthened himself against Israel.
Asa capa Jehoshaphat anih yueng la manghai tih Israel te a ning thil.
2 And he placed forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, and placed garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim, which Assa his father had captured.
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 Jehoshaphat; because he walked in the first ways of David his father, and sought not after the Be'alim;
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 On the contrary, after the God of his father did he seek, and in his commandments did he walk, but not after the doings of Israel.
Tedae a napa kah Pathen te a toem. A olpaek neh pongpa tih Israel khoboe bangla om pawh.
5 Therefore did the Lord establish the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave presents to Jehoshaphat; and he had riches and honor in abundance.
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 his heart raised itself up in the ways of the Lord, and he removed moreover the high-places and groves out of Judah.
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 his princes, even Ben-chayil, and 'Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethanel, and Michayahu, to teach in the cities of Judah.
A manghai kah a kum thum dongah tah Judah khopuei khui kah te tukkil sak hamla a mangpa rhoek Benhail, Obadiah, Zekhariah, Nethanel neh Mikhaiah a tueih.
8 And with them were the Levites, Shema'yahu, and Nethanyahu, and Zebadyahu, and 'Assahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adoniyahu, and Tobiyahu, and Tobadoniyah, the Levites; and with them Elishama' and Jehoram, the 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 in Judah, and with them was the book of the law of the Lord, and they moved about through all the cities of Judah, and taught 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 dread of the Lord was upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, so that they made no war with Jehoshaphat.
Te vaengah Judah kaepvai kah diklai ram tom ah BOEIPA taengkah birhihnah om tih Jehoshaphat te vathoh uh thil pawh.
11 Also from the Philistines did people bring unto Jehoshaphat presents and silver, as tribute: also the Arabians brought him small cattle, rams seven thousand and seven hundred, and he-goats seven thousand and seven hundred.
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 Jehoshaphat went on becoming exceedingly great, and he built in Judah castles and treasure-cities.
Jehoshaphat tah pongpa tih a soi duela a boeilen dongah Judah ah rhalmah im neh rhuengim khopuei te a sak.
13 And he had great works in the cities of Judah, and men of war, mighty in valor, in Jerusalem.
Anih kah bitat he Judah kah khopuei ah muep om tih caemtloek hlang la tatthai hlangrhalh te Jerusalem ah om.
14 And these are their numbers according to their family divisions: Of Judah, of the captains of the thousands was 'Adnah the chief, and with him were mighty men of valor, three hundred thousand.
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 And next to him was Jehochanan the chief, and with him were two hundred and eighty thousand.
A kut dongkah mangpa Jehohanan neh a taengkah rhoek khaw thawng yahnih neh thawng sawmrhet lo.
16 And next to him was 'Amassyah the son of Zichri, who voluntarily offered himself unto the Lord; and with him were two hundred thousand mighty men of valor.
Anih kut ah BOEIPA ham aka puhlu Zikhri capa Amasiah neh a taengkah tatthai hlangrhalh he thawng yahnih lo.
17 And of Benjamin, the mighty valiant Elyada', and with him were those armed with bow and shield two hundred thousand.
Benjamin lamkah tatthai hlangrhalh Eliada neh anih taengkah lii neh photling aka muk rhoek te thawng yahnih lo.
18 And next him was Jehozabad, and with him were one hundred and eighty thousand ready armed for the host.
Tekah kut dongkah Jehozabad neh anih taengkah thawng yakhat neh thawng sawmrhet tah caempuei la pumcum uh.
19 These were those that ministered to the king, besides those whom the king had placed in the fortified cities throughout all Judah.
He rhoek tah manghai loh Judah pum kah hmuencak khopuei ah amah la a paek phoei lamkah manghai taengkah aka thotat rhoek ni.
