2 Chronicles 14
1 So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days, the land was quiet ten years.
Tokosra Abijah el misa ac pukpuki inkulyuk lun leum in Siti sel David. Asa, wen natul, el aolulla in tokosra, ac in pacl in leum lal Asa mwet uh elos insewowokin moul misla ke lusen yac singoul.
2 Asa did that which was good and right in the LORD his God’s eyes,
Asa el akinsewowoye LEUM GOD lal ke el oru ma wo ac ma suwohs.
3 for he took away the foreign altars and the high places, broke down the pillars, cut down the Asherah poles,
El moklela loang lun mwet saya, ac nien alu lun mwet pegan, ac kunausya sru eot oal lalos, ac pakiya ma sruloala kacl god mutan Asherah.
4 and commanded Judah to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, and to obey his law and command.
El sap mwet Judah in oru ma lungse lun LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos, ac in akos mwe luti ac ma sap lal.
5 Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the sun images; and the kingdom was quiet before him.
Ke sripen el kunausla nien alu lun mwet pegan ac loang in esukak mwe keng in siti nukewa lun Judah, ouinge tokosrai lal muta in misla in pacl lal.
6 He built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because the LORD had given him rest.
El musaela mwe akkeye siti lun Judah in pacl sac, na wangin mweun orek we ke yac puspis, mweyen LEUM GOD El sang misla nu sel.
7 For he said to Judah, “Let’s build these cities and make walls around them, with towers, gates, and bars. The land is yet before us, because we have sought the LORD our God. We have sought him, and he has given us rest on every side.” So they built and prospered.
El fahk nu sin mwet Judah, “Lela kut in akkeyala siti inge, ac musaela pot ac tower, oayapa mutunpot su ku in kauli ku. Acn uh srakna oan ye ku lasr mweyen kut oru ma lungse lun LEUM GOD lasr. El karinginkutme ac El oru tuh in oasr misla inmasrlosr ac mwet nukewa su apinkutla.” Ke ma inge, elos musa ac arulana kapkapak.
8 Asa had an army of three hundred thousand out of Judah who bore bucklers and spears, and two hundred and eighty thousand out of Benjamin who bore shields and drew bows. All these were mighty men of valour.
Oasr mwet mweun tolfoko tausin lal Tokosra Asa sin mwet Judah su us mwe loang ac osra, oayapa mwet mweun luofoko oalngoul tausin sin mwet Benjamin su us mwe loang ac mwe pisr. Elos nukewa mwet pulaik ac pisrla ke mweun.
9 Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million troops and three hundred chariots, and he came to Mareshah.
Oasr mwet mweun se lun acn Ethiopia su pangpang Zerah. El tuh us sie million mwet mweun ac tolfoko chariot, ac utyak ke ku nu in acn Judah. Elos sun siti se pangpang Mareshah.
10 Then Asa went out to meet him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
Asa el illa in mweunel, na u luo inge kewa tueni ac akola in mweun ke Infahlfal Zephathah, apkuran nu Mareshah.
11 Asa cried to the LORD his God, and said, “LORD, there is no one besides you to help, between the mighty and him who has no strength. Help us, LORD our God; for we rely on you, and in your name are we come against this multitude. LORD, you are our God. Don’t let man prevail against you.”
Asa el pre nu sin LEUM GOD lal ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD, kom ku in kasru un mwet mweun munas oapana un mwet mweun na ku. Kasrekut inge, O LEUM GOD lasr, mweyen finsrak lasr oan in kom, ac ke Inem kut illa in mweun lain un mwet mweun lulap se inge. LEUM GOD, kom God lasr. Wangin sie mwet ac finsrak mu el ku in kutangkomla.”
12 So the LORD struck the Ethiopians before Asa and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
LEUM GOD El kutangla mwet Ethiopia ke Asa ac mwet mweun meunelos. Mwet Ethiopia elos kaingla,
13 Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to Gerar. So many of the Ethiopians fell that they could not recover themselves, for they were destroyed before the LORD and before his army. Judah’s army carried away very much booty.
na Asa ac mwet lal ukwalos nwe ke sun acn Gerar. Pukanten na mwet Ethiopia anwuki, pwanang upa nu selos in sifil mweun. Elos toanyuki sin LEUM GOD ac mwet mweun lal, ac mwet Judah elos eis ma wap puspis lalos.
14 They struck all the cities around Gerar, for the fear of the LORD came on them. They plundered all the cities, for there was much plunder in them.
Na elos kunausla siti ma rauneak acn Gerar, mweyen mwet we elos arulana sangeng sin LEUM GOD. Mwet mweun elos kunausla siti nukewa we ac sruokya ma wap puspis.
15 They also struck the tents of those who had livestock, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, then returned to Jerusalem.
Elos oayapa lain un mwet shepherd, ac eisla sheep ac camel pukanten. Na elos folokla nu Jerusalem.
