2 Chronicles 17
1 Jehoshaphat son of Asa became king in his place. Jehoshaphat strengthened himself against Israel.
Jehoshafat wuode nobedo ruoth kare kendo nogurore motegno mondo osir Israel.
2 He placed forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had captured.
Noketo jolweny e mier mochiel duto mag Juda kendo nogero kuonde jolweny Juda kaachiel gi miech Efraim mane Asa wuon mare okawo.
3 Yahweh was with Jehoshaphat because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and did not seek the Baals.
Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Jehoshafat nikech e ndaloge mokwongo nowuotho e yore mane Daudi wuon mare owuothoe. Ne ok oluwo Baal
4 Instead, he relied on the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, not after the behavior of Israel.
to nomanyo Nyasach wuon mare kendo noluwo chikene kopogore gi kaka jo-Israel ne timo.
5 So Yahweh established the rule in his hand; all Judah brought tribute to Jehoshaphat. He had riches and honor in abundance.
Jehova Nyasaye noguro lochne motegno kendo jo-Juda duto nokelo mich ni Jehoshafat mi nobedo kod mwandu mangʼeny kod huma maduongʼ.
6 His heart was committed to Yahweh's ways. He also removed the high places and the Asherah poles from Judah.
Chunye nomako weche Jehova Nyasaye, to bende nogolo e Juda kuonde motingʼore gi malo mag lemo e Juda kaachiel gi sirni milamo mag Ashera.
7 In the third year of his reign he sent his officials Ben-Hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah.
E higa mar adek mar lochne nooro jotelo mage kaka Ben-Hail, Obadia, Zekaria, Nethanel gi Mikaya mondo opuonj e mier mag Juda.
8 With them were Levites: Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah; and with them were the priests Elishama and Jehoram.
Kaachiel kodgi ne nitie jo-Lawi moko kaka: Shemaya gi Nethania gi Zebadia gi Asahel gi Shemiramoth gi Jehonathan gi Adonija gi Tobija kaachiel gi Tob-Adonija kod jodolo Elishama gi Jehoram.
9 They taught in Judah, having the book of the law of Yahweh with them. They went about throughout all the cities of Judah and taught among the people.
Negipuonjo e piny Juda duto ka gitingʼo Kitap Chik mar Jehova Nyasaye ka gilworore e miech Juda duto kendo ka gipuonjo ji.
10 Terror of Yahweh fell on all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, so that they made no war against Jehoshaphat.
Luoro mar Jehova Nyasaye nomako pinyruodhi mag pinje molworo Juda, omiyo ne ok gitugo lweny kod Jehoshafat.
11 Some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents, and silver as tribute. Arabians also brought him flocks, 7,700 rams, and 7,700 goats.
Jo-Filistia nokelone Jehoshafat mich mopogore opogore to gi fedha; to jo-Arabu nokelone jamni madirom imbe alufu abiriyo gi mia abiriyo kod diek alufu abiriyo gi mia abiriyo.
12 Jehoshaphat became very powerful. He built fortresses and store cities in Judah.
Jehoshafat nomedo bedo gi teko kendo nogero mier mochiel gohinga motegno kod mier mag keno e Juda.
13 He had many supplies in the cities of Judah, and soldiers—strong, mighty men—in Jerusalem.
Kendo nokano gik moko mangʼeny e miech Juda. Noketo e Jerusalem jolweny man kod lony mangʼeny e lweny.
14 These were their divisions listed by the name of their fathers' houses: From Judah, the commanders of thousands; Adnah the commander, and with him 300,000 fighting men;
Ma e kaka nondikgi kaluwore gi anywolagi: Koa kuom jo-Juda jotend migepe mag jolweny alufu achiel ne en Adna mane otelo ne jolweny maroteke alufu mia adek;
15 next to him Jehohanan the commander, and with him 280,000 men;
maluwe ne en Jehohanan mane jatend jolweny alufu mia ariyo gi piero aboro;
16 next to him Amasiah son of Zichri, who willingly offered to serve Yahweh; and with him 200,000 fighting men.
maluwe ne en Amasia wuod Zikri mane ochiwore kende owuon ne tij Jehova Nyasaye kendo notelo ne ji alufu mia ariyo.
17 From Benjamin: Eliada a powerful man of courage, and with him 200,000 armed with bows and shields;
Koa e dhood Benjamin ne gin Eliada, jalweny mathuon ka en gi ji alufu mia ariyo motingʼo atungʼ kod okumbni;
18 next to him Jehozabad, and with him 180,000 ready prepared for war.
maluwe ne en Jehozabad mane ni kod ji alufu mia achiel gi piero aboro moikore ne lweny.
19 These were those who served the king, besides those whom the king put in the fortified cities throughout all Judah.
Magi e joge mane tiyo ne ruoth ka ok okwan jolweny mane oketo e mier madongo mochiel motegno gohinga e piny Juda duto.
