2 Chronicles 19

1 And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned unto his own house in peace, to Jerusalem.

Tokosra Jehoshaphat lun acn Judah el moul foloko nu in lohm sin tokosra in acn Jerusalem.

2 And there came out to meet him, Jehu son of Hanani, the seer, who said unto King Jehoshaphat, Unto the lawless, was it [right] to give help? and, on them who hate Yahweh, to bestow thy love? For this cause, therefore, is there wrath against thee, from before Yahweh;

Mwet palu Jehu, wen natul Hanani, el som in osun nu sin tokosra ac fahk nu sel, “Ku kom nunku mu wo in kasru mwet koluk, ac in wi layen lun mwet su kwase LEUM GOD? Ma kom oru inge pa pwanang kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD in tuku nu fom.

3 howbeit, good things, are found with thee, -for that thou hast consumed the Sacred Stems out of the land, and hast fixed thy heart to seek God.

Tuh finne ouinge, oasr na ma wo in kom. Kom kunausla ma sruloala nukewa kacl god mutan Asherah su mwet uh alu nu kac, ac kom sang insiom in fahsr tukun ma lungse lun God.”

4 So Jehoshaphat dwelt in Jerusalem, —and he again went forth among the people, from Beersheba as far as the hill country of Ephraim, and brought them back unto Yahweh, the God of their fathers.

Tokosra Jehoshaphat el finne muta in acn Jerusalem, el forfor pacl nukewa inmasrlon mwet lal, mutawauk Beersheba in acn eir, nwe ke sisken infulan eol in acn Ephraim nu epang, tuh elan folokonma mwet uh nu sin LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos.

5 And he stationed judges in the land, throughout all the fortified cities of Judah, city by city;

El srisrngiya mwet nununku nu in kais sie siti kuhlusyukyak in acn Judah,

6 and said unto the judges, See what, ye, are doing, inasmuch as, not for man, must ye judge, but for Yahweh, —who will be with you, in the word of justice.

ac fahk nu selos, “Karinganang ma kowos wotela ke pacl in nununku lowos uh. Kowos tia orekma ke ku lun mwet, a ke ku lun LEUM GOD. El ac wi kowos in orala nununku suwohs.

7 Now, therefore, let the dread of Yahweh be upon you, —observe and do, for there is, with Yahweh our God, neither perversity nor respect of persons nor the taking of bribes.

Akfulatye LEUM GOD ac taran orekma lowos, mweyen LEUM GOD lasr El tia lela in oasr kutasrik, ku wiwikas, ku eis mol sin mwet orek eyeinse.”

8 And, even in Jerusalem, did Jehoshaphat station some of the Levites and the priests, and of the ancestral chiefs of Israel, to pronounce the just sentence of Yahweh, and to settle disputes, —when they returned to Jerusalem.

In acn Jerusalem Jehoshaphat el srisrngiya mwet Levi, mwet tol, ac sifen sou, in mwet nununku ke pacl oasr lainyen ma sap lun LEUM GOD, ku ke amei inmasrlon mwet in siti sac.

9 And he laid charge upon them, saying, —Thus, shall ye act, in the fear of Yahweh, faithfully and with an undivided heart.

El fahk suwoswos nu selos, “Ke kowos oru orekma lowos, kowos enenu in oru in akfulatye LEUM GOD, ac kowos in oaru in aksol in ma nukewa kowos oru.

10 Any dispute that shall come in unto you from among your brethren who are dwelling in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment and statutes and regulations, then shall ye warn them, that they may not become guilty against Yahweh, and so wrath come upon you and upon your brethren, —Thus, shall ye act, and not incur guilt.

Kutena pacl mwet liwos fin tuku liki siti selos ac use tukak ke akmas, ku ke kutena lumah ma lain ma sap ac ma oakwuk, kowos enenu in akkalemye nu selos ouiya fal elos in oru ke pacl in nununku, tuh elos in tia tafongla ac oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD. Kowos fin tia oru ouinge, kowos ac mwet liwos ac fah pula kasrkusrak lulap lun LEUM GOD. A kowos fin oru ma kunowos in wo, na ac fah wangin mwatuwos.

11 And lo! Amariah the chief priest, is over you as to every matter of Yahweh, and Zebadiah son of Ishmael the chief ruler for the house of Judah, as to every matter of the king, and, as officers, the Levites are before you, —Be strong and act, and Yahweh be with the good!

Amariah, Mwet Tol Fulat, pa ac oru nununku safla ke ip lun alu, ac Zebadiah wen natul Ishmael, governor lun Judah, pa ac oru nununku safla ke ip lun government. Ma kunen mwet Levi in liye tuh ma wotla nukewa ke pacl in nununku in fahla oana ma wotla. Kowos in pulaik na in karingin ma inge, ac lela LEUM GOD Elan wi layen ma suwohs!”
