2 Chronicles 19
1 And Jehoshaphat king of Judah turns back to his house in peace, to Jerusalem,
Kane Jehoshafat ruodh Juda noduogo ode Jerusalem kongima,
2 and Jehu son of Hanani the seer goes out to his presence and says to King Jehoshaphat, “Do you love to give help to the wicked and to those hating YHWH? And for this, wrath [is] against you from before YHWH,
Jehu janen ma wuod Hanani nodhi mondo orom kode kendo nonyiso ruoth niya, “Bende dikony joricho kendo iher jogo mochayo Jehova Nyasaye? Mirimb Jehova Nyasaye ni kuomi nikech isetimo ma.
3 but good things have been found with you, for you have put away the Asheroth out of the land, and have prepared your heart to seek God.”
Kata kama nitiere ber moko kuomi nikech isegolo e piny sirni milamo mag Ashera kendo chunyi bende iseketo mondo omany Nyasaye.”
4 And Jehoshaphat dwells in Jerusalem, and he turns back and goes out among the people from Beer-Sheba to the hill-country of Ephraim, and brings them back to YHWH, God of their fathers.
Jehoshafat nodak Jerusalem, nochako owuok kendo kolimo joge koa Bersheba nyaka chop piny gode matindo mag Efraim kendo kojiwo chunygi mondo gidwog ir Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kweregi.
5 And he establishes judges in the land, in all the fortified cities of Judah, for every city,
Noketo jongʼad bura e piny, e mier duto madongo mag Juda mochiel gohinga.
6 and says to the ones judging, “See what you are doing—for you do not judge for man, but for YHWH, who [is] with you in the matter of judgment;
Nonyisogi niya, “Paruru malongʼo gima utimo, nikech ok ungʼad bura gi nying dhano to ungʼado e nying Jehova Nyasaye man kodu e seche mungʼadoe bura.
7 and now, let fear of YHWH be on you, observe and do, for there is not perverseness with our God YHWH, and favoring by appearance, and taking of a bribe.”
Emomiyo tiuru ka luoro mar Nyasaye ni kodu. Ritreuru ka ungʼado bura nimar kuom Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa onge tim marach kata dewo wangʼ kata chulo asoya.”
8 And also in Jerusalem, Jehoshaphat has appointed of the Levites, and of the priests, and of the heads of the fathers of Israel, for the judgment of YHWH, and for strife; and they return to Jerusalem,
Bende e Jerusalem, Jehoshafat noketo jo-Lawi, jodolo kaachiel gi jotend anywola moko mag jo-Israel mondo ongʼad bura e nying Jehova Nyasaye kendo mondo gikel kwe e tungni. Kendo negidak Jerusalem.
9 and he lays a charge on them, saying, “Thus do you do in the fear of YHWH, in faithfulness, and with a perfect heart,
Nochikogi kama, Nyaka uti tijeu gi adiera kendo gi chunyu duto ka uluoro Jehova Nyasaye.
10 and any strife that comes to you of your brothers who are dwelling in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and command, statutes, and judgments, then you have warned them and they do not become guilty before YHWH, and wrath has not been on you and on your brothers; thus do you do, and you are not guilty.
Kuom wach moro amora mane okel e nyimu gi joweteu modak e mier, bedni en wach nek kata weche moko mag chik, yorene kata weche mag buchene to nyaka usiemgi ni kik giketh e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ka ok kamano to mirimbe nobi kuomu kod kuom joweteu. Kutimo ma, to ok unutim richo.
11 And behold, Amariah the head priest [is] over you for every matter of YHWH, and Zebadiah son of Ishmael, the leader of the house of Judah, [is] for every matter of the king, and the Levites [are] officers before you; be strong and do, and YHWH is with the good.”
“Amaria jadolo maduongʼ ema notelnu e weche duto mag Jehova Nyasaye, to Zebadia wuod Ishmael ma jatend dhood Juda to notelnu e weche duto mag ruoth, to jo-Lawi noti kaka jotelo kuomu. Tiuru ka un gi chir, kendo Jehova Nyasaye obed gi jogo matimo maber.”
