1 Forsothe Josaphat, kyng of Juda, turnede ayen pesibli in to his hows in to Jerusalem.
Mgbe Jehoshafat, eze Juda, laghachiri nʼụlọ ya na Jerusalem nʼudo.
2 Whom the profete Hieu, the sone of Ananye, mette, and seide to hym, Thou yyuest help to a wickid man, and thou art ioyned bi frendschip to hem that haten the Lord; and therfor sotheli thou deseruedist the wraththe of the Lord;
Jehu nwa Hanani, onye ọhụ ọhụ, pụrụ gaa izute ya; ọ sịrị eze Jehoshafat, “O kwesiri ka i nyere onye ọjọọ aka? Ọ bụkwa ndị na-akpọ Onyenwe anyị asị ka ị na-ahụ nʼanya? Nʼihi nke a iwe ọkụ Onyenwe anyị adakwasịla gị.
3 but good werkis ben foundyn in thee, for thou didist awey wodis fro the lond of Juda, and thou hast maad redi thin herte, for to seke the Lord God of thi fadris.
Ma otu ọ dị, achọtara ezi ihe nʼime gị, i sitela nʼala a wezuga ogidi Ashera niile, dozieekwa obi gị ịchọ Chineke.”
4 Therfor Josaphat dwellide in Jerusalem; and eft he yede out to the puple fro Bersabee til to the hil of Effraym, and he clepide hem ayen to the Lord God of her fadris.
Jehoshafat biri na Jerusalem. Ọ pụrụ gagharịa nʼetiti ndị ya site na Bịasheba ruo nʼobodo ugwu ugwu Ifrem, laghachikwutekwa Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nke nna nna ha.
5 And he ordeynede iugis of the lond in alle the strengthid citees of Juda, bi ech place.
Ọ họpụtara ndị ikpe nʼala ahụ, nʼotu nʼotu nʼobodo ndị ahụ niile e wusiri ike nke Juda.
6 And he comaundide to the iugis, and seide, Se ye, what ye doen; for ye vsen not the doom of man, but of the Lord; and what euere thing ye demen, schal turne `in to you;
Ọ gwara ha si, “Lezienụ anya ihe unu na-eme nʼihi na ọ bụghị mmadụ ka unu na-ekpere ikpe kama ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye na-anọnyere unu mgbe unu na-ekpebi ikpe.
7 the drede of the Lord be with you, and do ye alle thingis with diligence; for anentis `youre Lord God is no wickidnesse, nether takynge of persoones, nether coueitise of yiftis.
Ugbu a, kwenụ ka egwu Onyenwe anyị dịrị nʼime unu. Kpeenụ ikpe ziri ezi, nʼihi na nʼebe Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị nọ, ikpe ikpe na-ezighị ezi, maọbụ ile mmadụ anya nʼihu maọbụ iri ngarị adịghị ya.”
8 Also in Jerusalem Josaphat ordeynede dekenes, and preestis, and the princes of meynees of Israel, that thei schulden deme the doom and cause of the Lord to the dwellers of it.
Ọzọkwa, nʼime Jerusalem, Jehoshafat họpụtara ụfọdụ ndị Livayị, na ndị nchụaja, na ndịisi ezinaụlọ Izrel ka ha bụrụ ndị na-ahazi iwu nke Onyenwe anyị na-edozikwa esemokwu. Ha bikwa na Jerusalem.
9 And he comaundide to hem, and seide, Thus ye schulen do in the drede of the Lord, feithfuli and in perfite herte.
O nyere ha iwu ndị a, “Jirinụ ikwesi ntụkwasị obi, na ịtụ egwu Onyenwe anyị rụọ ọrụ unu.
10 Ech cause that cometh to you of youre britheren, that dwellen in her citees, bitwixe kynrede and kynrede, where euere is questioun of the lawe, of `the comaundement, of cerymonyes, `ether sacrifices, of iustifyingis, schewe ye to hem, that thei do not synne ayens the Lord, and that wraththe com not on you and on youre britheren. Therfor ye doynge thus schulen not do synne.
Mgbe ọbụla ụmụnna unu ndị bi nʼobodo unu dị iche iche buteere unu ikpe igbu mmadụ maọbụ ikpe mmebi iwu ọbụla, maọbụ ihe megidere ihe e nyere nʼiwu, maọbụ nke megidere ụkpụrụ, ma ọ bụkwanụ megide iwu na usoro ime ihe, unu ga-adọ ha aka na ntị ka ha ghara imehie megide Onyenwe anyị. Ọ bụrụ na unu emeghị otu a, iwe Onyenwe anyị ga-adakwasị unu na ụmụnna unu. Ma ọ bụrụ na unu arụọ ọrụ unu nke ọma, unu agaghị emehie.
11 Forsothe Amarie, youre preest and bischop, schal be souereyn in these thingis, that perteynen to God. Sotheli Zabadie, the sone of Ismael, which is duyk in the hows of Juda, schal be on tho werkis that perteynen to the office of the kyng, and ye han maistris dekenes bifor you; be ye coumfortid, and do ye diligentli, and the Lord schal be with you in goodis.
“Amaraya, onyeisi nchụaja, ga-abụ onyeisi unu nʼihe ọbụla metụtara Onyenwe anyị. Zebadaya nwa nwoke Ishmel, onyeisi nke ebo Juda ga-abụ onyeisi unu nʼihe o bụla metụtara eze. Ndị Livayị ga-abụ ndịisi ozi nʼihu unu. Bụrụkwanụ ndị dị ike, unu atụkwala ụjọ, ka Onyenwe anyị nọnyere ndị na-eme nke ọma.”
