2 Chronicles 14
1 So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David; and Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days the land was quiet ten years.
Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Abiià naho nalenteke an-drova’ i Davide ao, le nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Asa ana’e; nanintsiñe folo taoñe tañ’andro’e i taney.
2 Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God:
Nanao ze soa naho vantañe am-pihaino’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’e t’i Asa;
3 for he took away the foreign altars, and the high places, and broke down the pillars, and cut down the Asherim,
amy te finao’e ze kitrely tsie naho o toets’ aboo naho nakoroma’e o vatolahio vaho finira’e o Asereo;
4 and commanded Judah to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.
naho linili’e te hipay Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo t’Iehoda, hañorike Hake naho o fepètseo.
5 Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the sun images: and the kingdom was quiet before him.
Nafaha’e amo hene rova’ Iehodao o tambohoo naho o sare’ i àndroio; vaho nianjiñe añ’atrefa’e eo i taney.
6 He built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because the LORD had given him rest.
Aa le namboare’e rova fatratse e Iehoda ao; amy te nanintsiñe i taney vaho tsy teo ty nialiañe amy taoñe rezay, ie nampitofà’ Iehovà.
7 For he said to Judah, "Let us build these cities, and make walls around them, with towers, gates, and bars. The land is still ours. Since we have sought the LORD our God, he has sought us and he has given us rest on every side." So they built and prospered.
Aa hoe ty natao’e am’Iehoda: Antao hamboatse o rova retoa, le harikatohen-tika kijoly naho fitalakesañ’ abo naho lalambey vaho sikadañe; añatrefan-tika eo i taney amy te nitsoehentika t’Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika naho nipaian-tika vaho nampitofae’e o mañohok’ antika iabio. Aa le namboatse iereo vaho niraorao.
8 Asa had an army that bore bucklers and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bore shields and drew bows, two hundred eighty thousand: all these were mighty men of valor.
Le nanam-pirimboñan-dahindefoñe t’i Asa: mpitam-pikalañe naho lefoñe telo-hetse ty boak’ Iehodà ao; naho hirike Beniamine ao ty mpitam-pikalañe vaho mpitintim-pale, roe-hetse-tsi-valo-ale; songa maozatse naho nahasibeke.
9 There came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian with an army of a million troops, and three hundred chariots; and he came to Mareshah.
Teo te niavotse haname iareo t’i Zerake nte-Kose ninday valobohòke arivon’ arivo naho sarete telon-jato; le nivotrake e Maresà eo.
10 Then Asa went out to meet him, and they set the battle in array in the Valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
Niavotse mb’eo t’i Asa hifanalaka ama’e, le nalahatse am-bavatane’ i Zefate e Maresà eo i hotakotakey.
11 Asa cried to the LORD his God, and said, "LORD, there is none besides you to help, between the mighty and those who have no strength. Help us, LORD our God; for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. LORD, you are our God. Do not let man prevail against you."
Le nikaik’ am’Iehovà Andrianañahare’e t’i Asa, nanao ty hoe: Ry Iehovà, tsy eo ty añ’ila’o mahafañolotse añivo’ ty maozatse naho ty po-hafatrarañe; oloro zahay ry Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay; amy te Ihe avao ty iatoa’ay vaho i tahina’oy ty ionjona’ay hiatreke o valobohòkeo. Ihe ro Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay; ko apo’o handrekets’ azo ondatio.
12 So the LORD struck the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
Aa le zinama’ Iehovà añatrefa’ i Asa naho aolo’ Iehoda eo o nte-Koseo vaho nitriban-day o nte-Koseo.
13 Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to Gerar: and there fell of the Ethiopians so many that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the LORD, and before his army; and they carried away very much booty.
Aa le nihoridañe’ i Asa naho ondaty ama’eo pake Gerare; le akore ty hamaro’ o nte-Kose nibanibanìtseo kanao leo raike tsy nahatam-beloñe, ie niparatsàke añatrefa’ Iehovà naho aolo’ i valobohò’ey; vaho nendese’ iereo ty fikopaham-bey.
14 They struck all the cities around Gerar; for the fear of the LORD came on them: and they plundered all the cities; for there was a great amount of plunder in them.
Linafa’ iereo o tanañe mañohoke i Gerare iabio; fa nampianifa’ Iehovà; naho fonga kinopa’ iareo o rovao vaho tsifotofoto ty vara tam’ iereo ao.
15 They struck also the tents of livestock, and carried away sheep in abundance, and camels, and returned to Jerusalem.
Linafa’ iareo ka o kibohom-pitan-kareo, le tinava’ iareo ty añondry naho rameva maro vaho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime añe.
