2 Chronicles 17
1 And he became king Jehoshaphat son his in place of him and he strengthened himself on Israel.
Nake Jehoshafatu mũrũ wa Asa agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake, na akĩĩkĩra hinya ndakahũũrwo nĩ Isiraeli.
2 And he put an army in all [the] cities of Judah fortified and he put garrisons in [the] land of Judah and in [the] cities of Ephraim which he had captured Asa father his.
Akĩiga ikundi cia thigari matũũra-inĩ manene mothe marĩa mairigĩtwo na thingo cia hinya ma Juda, na agĩaka kambĩ cia thigari kũu Juda na matũũra-inĩ ma Efiraimu marĩa ithe Asa aatunyanĩte.
3 And he was Yahweh with Jehoshaphat for he walked in [the] ways of David ancestor his former and not he sought the Baals.
Jehova aarĩ hamwe na Jehoshafatu tondũ hĩndĩ ya wĩthĩ wake nĩathiiaga na mĩthiĩre ĩrĩa ithe Daudi aathiiaga nayo. We ndaigana kũhooya kĩrĩra kuuma kũrĩ Baali,
4 For [the] God of father his he sought and in commandments his he walked and not according to [the] deed[s] of Israel.
no nĩarongooragia Ngai wa ithe na akarũmagĩrĩra mawatho make, na ndaarũmĩrĩire mĩtugo ya Isiraeli.
5 And he established Yahweh the kingdom in hand his and they gave all Judah tribute to Jehoshaphat and it belonged to him wealth and honor to abundance.
Jehova akĩhaanda ũthamaki ũcio wega moko-inĩ make, nao andũ a Juda othe makĩrehera Jehoshafatu iheo; nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩgĩa na indo nyingĩ na agĩtĩĩka mũno.
6 And it was high heart his in [the] ways of Yahweh and again he removed the high places and the Asherah poles from Judah.
Nĩerutĩire na ngoro yake kũrũmĩrĩra mĩthiĩre ya Jehova; na makĩria ma ũguo, agĩtharia kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru o na itugĩ cia Ashera, agĩcieheria Juda.
7 And in year three of reigning his he sent officials his Ben-Hail and Obadiah and Zechariah and Nethanel and Micaiah to teach in [the] cities of Judah.
Mwaka wa gatatũ wa wathani wake nĩatũmire anene ake, na nĩo Beni-Haili, na Obadia, na Zekaria, na Nethaneli, na Mikaia makarutane matũũra-inĩ ma Juda.
8 And [were] with them the Levites Shemaiah and Nethaniah and Zebadiah and Asahel (and Shemiramoth *Q(K)*) and Jonathan and Adonijah and Tobijah and Tob-Adonijah the Levites and [were] with them Elishama and Jehoram the priests.

9 And they taught in Judah and [was] with them [the] book of [the] law of Yahweh and they went round in all [the] cities of Judah and they taught among the people.
Nao makĩrutana Juda guothe, magathiiaga na Ibuku rĩa Watho wa Jehova; magĩthiũrũrũka matũũra-inĩ mothe ma Juda makĩrutaga andũ watho.
10 And it was - [the] dread of Yahweh on all [the] kingdoms of the lands which [were] around Judah and not they waged war with Jehoshaphat.
Ũhoro wa gwĩtigĩra Jehova ũkĩiyũra mothamaki-inĩ mothe marĩa maathiũrũrũkĩirie Juda, nĩ ũndũ ũcio matiigana kũrũa na Jehoshafatu.
11 And some of [the] Philistines [were] bringing to Jehoshaphat tribute and silver a load also the Arabs [were] bringing to him flock[s] rams seven thousand and seven hundred and male goats seven thousand and seven hundred.
Nao Afilisti amwe makĩrehera Jehoshafatu iheo, na makĩrehe betha arĩ igooti, nao Arabu makĩmũrehere ndũũru cia mbũri: ndũrũme 7,700 na mbũri 7,700.
12 And it was Jehoshaphat [was] going and [was] becoming great to upwards and he built in Judah fortresses and cities of storage.
Jehoshafatu agĩkĩrĩrĩria kũgĩa na hinya mũno; agĩaka matũũra manene magitĩre na matũũra ma makũmbĩ kũu Juda,
13 And property much it belonged to him in [the] cities of Judah and men of war mighty [men] of strength [were] in Jerusalem.

14 And these [were] group[s] their to [the] house of ancestors their of Judah commanders of thousands Adnah [was] the commander and [were] with him mighty [men] of strength three hundred thousand.
Rĩandĩkithia rĩao, kũringana na nyũmba ciao, rĩatariĩ ta ũũ: Kuuma Juda, anene a ikundi cia 1,000: Adina nĩwe warĩ mũnene wao, aarĩ na andũ 300,000 a kũrũa;
