2 Chronicles 17
1 Asa’s son Jehoshaphat became the king [of Judah], and he enabled his army to become very strong, with the result that they could resist attacks from [the army of] Israel.
A: isa da bogoloba, egefe Yihosiafa: de da e bagia hina bagade hamoi. Isala: ili da ema gegesa: besa: le, e da Yuda gagili sali moilai bai bagade, Yuda soge, amola moilai bai bagade Ifala: ime soge ganodini (amo A: isa da susugui), amo gaga: musa: , dadi gagui dunu amo sosodo aligima: ne ilegei.
2 He put soldiers in all the cities in Judah around which they had built walls, and he put soldiers in other places in Judah and in the towns in the area belonging to the tribe of Ephraim that [soldiers of] his father Asa had captured.
3 Yahweh helped Jehoshaphat because when he started [to rule Judah], he did the things that pleased Yahweh like his ancestor [King] David had done. He did not worship the idols of Baal.
Hina Gode da Yihosiafa: de hahawane dogolegele fidi. Bai e da ea ada ea degabo hamosu defele, ogogosu ‘gode’ Ba: ilema nodone hame sia: ne gadoi.
4 Instead, he sought advice from the God whom his father [had worshiped], and he obeyed God’s commands, and did not do the [evil things that the kings of] Israel continually did.
E da ea ada ea Gode Ema fawane hawa: hamosu. E da Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamosu, amola Isala: ili hina bagade ilia hou defele hame hamosu.
5 Yahweh enabled him to completely control his kingdom. All [the people of] Judah brought gifts to him, with the result that he became very rich and was greatly honored.
Hina Gode da fidibiba: le, e da gasawane Yuda fi ouligilalu. Ea fi dunu huluane da ema nodone iasu gaguli misi. E da bagade gaguiwane ba: i, amola dunu huluane da ema nodoi.
6 He was completely devoted to doing what pleased Yahweh. His workers got rid of the shrines on the hilltops and the poles for [worshiping the goddess] Asherah throughout Judah.
E da hanaiwane amola hahawane Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamonanu. E da ogogosu ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi huluane, amola ogogosu uda ‘gode’ Asila agoai loboga hamoi liligi huluane Yuda soge ganodini dialu, amo gugunufinisi.
7 When he had been ruling [Judah] for almost three years, he sent some of his officials—Ben-Hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah—to teach the people in various towns in Judah.
E da Yuda fi ode udiana ouligilalu, eagene ouligisu dunu amo Yuda moilai bai bagadega sia: olelema: ne asunasi. Ilia dio da Beneha: iele, Oubadaia, Segalaia, Nida: niele amola Maga: ia.
8 With them he sent several descendants of Levi—Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah—and two priests, Elishama and Jehoram.
Lifai fi dunu sesegeane amola gobele salasu dunu aduna da amo olelesu dunu sigi asi. Lifai fi dunu ilia dio da Siema: ia, Nedanaia, Sebadaia, A:sahele, Similamode, Yihonada: ne, A:dounaidia, Doubaidia amola Doba: dounaidia. Gobele salasu dunu da Ilisiama amola Yihoula: me.
9 They took with them a scroll on which were written the laws of Yahweh and taught them to the people in all the towns throughout Judah,
Ilia da Hina Gode Ea Sema dedei buga gaguli, Yuda moilai dunu fi huluane ilima olelela asi.
10 The people in all the kingdoms surrounding Judah became very afraid of [what Yahweh might do to punish them if they fought against Judah], so they did not start wars with Jehoshaphat’s army.
Hina Gode da hamobeba: le, Yuda soge sisiga: le fifi asi huluane da beda: iba: le, Yihosiafa: dema gegemu hamedei ba: i.
11 Some people from Philistia brought gifts to Jehoshaphat, and they also brought to him the silver that he demanded that they pay to him. Some Arabs brought to him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats.
Filisidini fi dunu mogili da Yihosiafa: dema silifa bagade amola eno hahawane iasu ema gaguli misi. Amola A: la: be fi dunu mogili da ema sibi 7,700 agoane amola goudi 7,700 agoane gaguli misi.
12 Jehoshaphat continued to become more powerful/influential. His workers built forts and places to store supplies in various towns in Judah.
Amaiba: le, Yihosiafa: de ea gasa da bu bagade heda: i. E da Yuda soge huluane amo ganodini gagili sali moilai amola moilai bai bagade gagui.
13 Then they put large amounts of supplies in those storehouses. Jehoshaphat also placed in Jerusalem soldiers who were experienced.
Amogawi, e da liligi amola ha: i manu osea: idafa lidili legei. E da Yelusaleme ouligima: ne, medenegi ouligisu dunu fi afae afae amoga lale, ilegei.
14 The leaders and numbers from each tribe were as follows: From the tribe of Judah, Adnah was the leader of the soldiers, and he commanded 300,000 soldiers.
A: dana da Yuda sosogo fi dadi gagui dunu ouligisu. Ea dadi gagui dunu ili idi da 300,000 agoane.
15 His assistant was Jehohanan, who commanded 280,000 soldiers.
E bisibagia da Yihouha: ina: ne. E da dadi gagui dunu 280,000 agoane ouligi.
16 Next was Zicri’s son Amasiah, who volunteered to serve Yahweh in this way; he commanded 200,000 soldiers.
Yihouha: ina: ne bagia da A: masaia (Sigalai egefe). E da dadi gagui dunu 200,000 agoane ouligi. (A: masaia da hahawane Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamomusa: ilegele sia: i).
17 From the tribe of Benjamin, Eliada, who was a brave soldier, was the leader of the soldiers; he commanded 200,000 men who had bows [and arrows] and shields.
Iliada, dadi gagui dunu noga: idafa, e Bediamini sosogo fi huluane ilia dadi gagui dunu ouligisu. Ea dadi gagui dunu ili idi da 200,000 agoane. Ilia huluane da da: igene ga: su amola oulali gaguli ahoasu.
18 Next was Jehozabad, who commanded 180,000 men who had weapons for fighting battles.
E bisi bagia da Yihosaba: de. E da dadi gagui dunu 180,000 agoane ouligi. Ilia huluane da gegesu liligi defele gaguli ahoasu.
19 Those were the soldiers who served the king [in Jerusalem], in addition to the men whom the king had placed in the other cities in Judah that had walls around them.
Amo dadi gagui dunu da Yelusaleme ganodini, hina bagade ea hawa: hamonanu. Amolawane, e da eno dadi gagui dunu, amo eno Yuda soge gagili sali moilai bai bagadega hawa: hamoma: ne, ilegei dagoi.
