2 Chronicles 20
1 It happened after this, that the people of Moab, and the people of Ammon, and with them some of the Meunites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
Añe izay, le nimb’eo hihotakotak’ am’Iehosafate o ana’ i Moabeo naho o ana’ i Amoneo, mitraok’ ami’ty ondaty ila’e.
2 Then some came who told Jehoshaphat, saying, "A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea from Edom. Look, they are in Hazazon Tamar" (that is, En Gedi).
Le pok’ eo ty nitalily am’ Iehosafate ty hoe: Fa mb’atoa ty valobohòke boak’ alafe’ i riakey hirik’ Arame añe; le inao fa e Katsetsone-tamare iereo, e En-gedý ey henaneo.
3 Jehoshaphat was alarmed, and set himself to seek to YHWH. He proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
Nihembañe amy zao t’Iehosafate, le nifahara’e tsoeke t’Iehovà vaho nanitsike Iehodà nitsèy lilitse.
4 Judah gathered themselves together, to seek help from YHWH. They came out of all the cities of Judah to seek YHWH.
Nifanontoñe amy zao t’Iehoda, nipay imba am’ Iehovà; le boak’ amy ze hene rova’ Iehoda ty nivoria’ iareo hitsoeke Iehovà.
5 Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of YHWH, before the new court;
Nijohañe amy fivori’ Iehoda naho Ierosalaimey t’Iehosafate, añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà aolo’ i kiririsa vaoy;
6 and he said, "YHWH, the God of our fathers, aren't you God in heaven? Aren't you ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in your hand, so that no one is able to withstand you.
nanao ty hoe; Ry Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ay, tsy Ihe hao t’i Andrianañahare andindimoneñe ao? Tsy Ihe hao ty Mpifehe ze fonga fifehea’ o kilakila’ ondatio? Le am-pità’o ty hafatrarañe naho ty haozarañe vaho tsy eo ty hahafitroatse ama’o.
7 Did you not, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend?
Tsy Ihe hao, ry Andrianañahare’ay, ty nandroake o mpimoneñe an-tane atoio aolo’ ondati’o Israeleo vaho natolo’o amo tiri’ i Avrahame rañe’oo ho nainai’e donia?
8 They lived in it, and have built you a sanctuary in it for your name, saying,
Aa le nimoneñe ao iereo vaho nandranjy toe-masiñe ho amy tahina’oy ami’ty hoe:
9 'If evil comes on us—the sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine—we will stand before this house, and before you, (for your name is in this house), and cry to you in our affliction, and you will hear and save.'
Ie mifetsak’ ama’ay ty hankàñe, i fibaray, i zakay, ke angorosy, he hasalikoañe, le hijohañe añatrefa’ ty anjomba toy naho aolo’o eo zahay (amy te añ’anjomba atoy ty tahina’o) naho itoreova’ay ty haembera’aiy, le hijanjin-dRehe vaho handrombake.
10 Now, look, the people of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom you would not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned aside from them, and did not destroy them;
Ie amy zao, vazohò o ana’ i Amoneo naho i Moabeo vaho i Vohi-Seirey, ie tsy nado’o ho tamè’ Israele niavotse an-tane Mitsraime añe, naho niary tsy nirotsaheñe;
11 look, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of your possession, which you have given us to inherit.
hehe ty atolo’ iareo ama’ay henaneo, ie mb’ etoa hañary anay amy fanaña’o natolo’o anay ho lovay.
12 Our God, will you not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that comes against us; neither know we what to do, but our eyes are on you."
Ry Andrianañahare’ay, Tsy Ihe hao ty hametsa-jaka am’ iereo? tsy ama’ay ty hafatrarañe hahafitroatse amo valobohòke jabajaba mb’ etoañe hiatreatre ama’aio, vaho tsy hai’ay ty hanoeñe, fe ama’o o fihaino’aio.
13 All Judah stood before YHWH, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
Le fonga nijohañe añatrefa’ Iehovà t’Iehodà naho o keleia’eo, o vali’eo vaho o amori’eo.
14 Then the Spirit of YHWH came on Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, the Levite, of the sons of Asaph, in the midst of the assembly;
Aa le nivotrak’ am’ Iakaziele, ana’ i Zekarià, ana’ i Benaià, ana’ Ieiele, ana’ i Matanià nte-Levy amo ana’ i Asafeo, ty Arofo’ Iehovà añivo’ i fivoriy;
15 and he said, "Listen, all Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you king Jehoshaphat. Thus says YHWH to you, 'Do not be afraid, neither be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.
le hoe re: Mijanjiña, ry Iehoda naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo naho ry Iehosafate mpanjaka; Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà ama’ areo: Ko hembañe, ko miroreke ty amy valobohòke ra’elahiy; toe tsy anahareo i hotakotakey, fa an’ Andrianañahare.
16 Tomorrow go down against them. Look, they are coming up by the ascent of Ziz. You shall find them at the end of the valley, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
Mizotsoa mb’am’ iereo mb’eo hamaray; Inao! hionjomb’ am-pitroara’ i Zize iereo, le ho tendrek’ama’ areo amy figadoña’ i vavataney, aolo’ i fatrambei’ Ieroeley.
17 You will not need to fight this battle. Set yourselves, stand still, and see the salvation of YHWH with you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed. Go out against them tomorrow, for YHWH is with you.'"
Tsy inahareo ty hialy amy hotakotakey, mijadoña eo, mijohaña an-kanintsiñe vaho isaho ty fandrombaha’ Iehovà, ry Iehodà naho Ierosalaime, ko mirevendreveñe, ko mangetraketrake, miavota hiatreke iareo hamaray; fa hañimba anahareo t’Iehovà.
18 Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before YHWH, worshipping YHWH.
Aa le nidròdreke, laharañe mb’ an-tane t’Iehosafate; le nibabok’ añatrefa’ Iehovà iaby t’Iehoda naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo, nitalaho am’ Iehovà.
19 The Levites, of the descendants of the Kohathites and of the descendants of the Korahites, stood up to praise YHWH, the God of Israel, with an exceeding loud voice.
Nitroatse amy zao o nte-Levio, o anan-te-Kehàteo naho o anan-te-Koraheo handrenge Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, am-pipoñafam-peo.
20 They rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Listen to me, Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Believe in YHWH your God, so you will be established. Believe his prophets, and you will prosper."
Aa le nañaleñaleñe amy loak’ androy iereo, nionjomb’ an-diolio’ i Tekoà mb’eo; ie nañavelo iereo le nijohañe eo t’Iehosafate, nanao ty hoe; Janjiño iraho, ry Iehoda naho ry mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo; iatò t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo le hijadoñe; iantofo o mpitoki’eo le hahatafetetse.
21 When he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed those who should sing to YHWH, and give praise in holy array, as they went out before the army, and say, Give thanks to YHWH; for his loving kindness endures forever.
Ie fa nisafiry am’ondatio le tinendre’e o hisabo amy Iehovào naho o handrenge am-pihaminañe miavakeo, hiaolo o lahindefoñeo, ami’ty hoe: Andriaño t’Iehovà, fa nainai’e ty fiferenaiña’e.
22 When they began to sing and to praise, YHWH set ambushers against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were struck.
Aa ie namototse nisabo naho nandrenge iereo, le nampipoha’ Iehovà mpamandroñe hanampoke o ana’ i Amone naho i Moabe naho o tam-bohi-Seire ho naname Iehodao, le zinevo iereo.
23 For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir, utterly to kill and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, everyone helped to destroy another.
Amy te nitroatse amo mpimoneñe am-bohi-Seireio o ana’ i Amone naho Moabeo, nanjamañe naho nandrotsake; aa ie fonga finongo’ iereo o mpimone’ i Seireo le songa nifanjamañe ka.
24 When Judah came to the place overlooking the wilderness, they looked at the multitude; and look, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and there were none who escaped.
Aa ie niheo mb’amy fitilik’ abom-patrambeiy mb’eo t’Iehodà, le niisa’ iereo i valobohòkey; hehe te lolo avao ty nifitak’ an-tane eo, leo raike tsy nibotitsike.
25 When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their spoil, they found among them in abundance both riches and dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away: and they were three days in taking the spoil, it was so much.
Ie nivotrake eo t’Iehosafate naho ondati’eo hikopake, le tendreke te tsifotofoto ty vara naho ty lolo niravake vato soa vaho nangozie’ iereo, bey ta ty lefe-jinieñe; telo andro t’ie nangalake i kopakey ami’ty hamaro’e.
26 On the fourth day they assembled themselves in the Valley of Berachah; for there they blessed YHWH: therefore the name of that place was called The Valley of Berachah to this day.
Ie amy andro fahefatsey le nifanontoñe am-bavatane’ i Berakà ao nañandriañe Iehovà; aa le nitokaveñe ty hoe Vavatanem-Berakà ty añara’ i toetsey pak’ androany.
27 Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in their forefront, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for YHWH had made them to rejoice over their enemies.
Songa nimpoly amy zao ze ondati’ Iehodà naho Ierosalaime, Iehosafate ty niaolo, nibalike mb’e Ierosalaime am-pirebehañe; ie nampirebehe’ Iehovà ty amo rafelahio.
28 They came to Jerusalem with stringed instruments and harps and trumpets to the house of YHWH.
Aa le pok’ e Ierosalaime ao iereo reketse fikontsañañe naho marovany naho trompetra nimb’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo.
29 The fear of God was on all the kingdoms of the countries, when they heard that YHWH fought against the enemies of Israel.
Le nifetsak’ amo fifehea’ i taney iabio ty firevendreveñañe aman’Añahare, ie jinanjiñe te Iehovà ty nialy amo rafelahi’ Israeleo.
30 So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet; for his God gave him rest all around.
Toe nianjiñe ty fifehea’ Iehosafate; amy te nampitofàn’ Añahare’e o añariary azeo.
31 Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: he was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
Aa le nifehe Iehoda t’Iehosafate; niorotse nifehe amy tao’e faha telopolo-lime ambiy, le nifeleke e Ierosalaime ao roapolo taoñe lime amby, i Azobà ana’ i Silhý ty tahinan-drene’e.
32 He walked in the way of Asa his father, and did not turn aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of YHWH.
Nañavelo an-tsata’ i Asa, rae’e re, tsy nivike ama’e fa nanao ze fahiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà.
33 However the high places were not taken away; neither as yet had the people set their hearts to the God of their fathers.
Fe mboe tsy nafahañe añe o toets’ aboo; amy te tsy najado’ ondatio aman’ Añaharen-droae’ iareo o arofo’ iareoo.
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, look, they are written in the history of Jehu the son of Hanani, which is inserted in the book of the kings of Israel.
Aa ty amo fitoloña’ Iehosafate ila’eo, ty valoha’e pak’ ampara’e, oniño t’ie misokitse amo enta’ Ieho ana’ i Kananý najoñe amy bokem-panjaka’ Israeleio.
35 After this Jehoshaphat king of Judah joined himself with Ahaziah king of Israel. The same did very wickedly:
Ie añe, nipiteke amy Ahkazià, mpanjaka’ Israele lo tserekey, t’Iehosafate mpanjaka’ Iehoda;
36 and he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish; and they made the ships in Ezion Geber.
nirekets’ ama’e hamboatse sambo hionjoñe mb’e Tarsise mb’eo; le namboare’ iareo e Etsione-gebere ao i sambo rey.
37 Then Eliezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, "Because you have joined yourself with Ahaziah, YHWH has destroyed your works." The ships were broken, so that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
Aa le nitoky amy Iehosafate t’i Eliezere, ana’ i Doda nte Maresà nanao ty hoe: Kanao nirekets’ amy Ahkazià irehe le fa nipozahe’ Iehovà o fitoloña’oo. Aa le nifoy iaby i sambo rey, tsy nahafionjoñe mb’e Tarsise.
