2 Chronicles 17
1 And Jehoshaphat his son reigneth in his stead, and he strengtheneth himself against Israel,
Josaphat, fis li a te devni wa nan plas li, e li te fè pozisyon li sou Israël byen fèm.
2 and putteth a force in all the fenced cities of Judah, and putteth garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim that Asa his father had captured.
Li te mete sòlda nan tout vil fòtifye Juda yo, e li te fè ganizon militè nan peyi Juda avèk nan vil Éphraïm ke papa li, Asa te kaptire yo.
3 And Jehovah is with Jehoshaphat, for he hath walked in the first ways of David his father, and hath not sought to Baalim,
SENYÈ a te avèk Josaphat akoz li te swiv egzanp a zansèt li a, David, nan premye jou li yo, e li pa t chache Baal yo,
4 for to the God of his father he hath sought, and in His commands he hath walked, and not according to the work of Israel.
men li te chache Bondye a zansèt li yo. Li te swiv kòmandman li yo, e li pa t aji jan Israël te fè a.
5 And Jehovah doth establish the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah give a present to Jehoshaphat, and he hath riches and honour in abundance,
Pou sa, SENYÈ a te etabli wayòm nan sou kontwòl li, tout Juda te pote pèyman bay Josaphat e li te vin gen gwo richès avèk lonè.
6 and his heart is high in the ways of Jehovah, and again he hath turned aside the high places and the shrines out of Judah.
Li te fyè nan chemen SENYÈ a, e ankò li te rache wo plas yo avèk Asherim yo soti nan Juda.
7 And in the third year of his reign he hath sent for his heads, for Ben-Hail, and for Obadiah, and for Zechariah, and for Nethaneel, and for Michaiah, to teach in cities of Judah,
Konsa, nan twazyèm ane règn li a, li te voye reprezantan li yo, chèf Ben-Haïl yo, Abdias, Zacharie, Nethaneel, avèk Michée pou enstwi nan vil a Juda yo;
8 and with them the Levites, Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijath, and Tob-Adonijah, the Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.
epi avèk yo Levit yo, Schemaeja, Nethania, Zebadia, Adonija, Tobija ak Tob-Adonija; epi avèk yo, prèt yo, Élischama avèk Joram.
9 And they teach in Judah, and with them [is] the Book of the Law of Jehovah, and they go round about into all cities of Judah, and teach among the people.
Yo te enstwi Juda avèk liv lalwa SENYÈ a ke yo te genyen avèk yo. Konsa, yo te ale toupatou nan tout vil Juda yo pou te enstwi pami pèp la.
10 And here is a fear of Jehovah on all kingdoms of the lands that [are] round about Judah, and they have not fought with Jehoshaphat;
Alò, lakrent SENYÈ a te sou tout wayòm ki te antoure Juda yo, jiskaske yo pa t fè lagè kont Josaphat.
11 and of the Philistines they are bringing in to Jehoshaphat a present, and tribute silver; also, the Arabians are bringing to him a flock, rams seven thousand an seven hundred, and he-goats seven thousand and seven hundred.
Kèk nan Filisten yo te pote kado avèk lò kòm pèyman bay Josaphat. Arabyen yo tou te pote bann bèt ba li, sèt-mil-sèt-san belye ak sèt-mil-sèt-san mal kabrit.
12 And Jehoshaphat is going on and becoming very great, and he buildeth in Judah palaces and cities of store,
Josaphat te vin grandi de plizanplis e li te bati fò avèk vil depo nan Juda.
13 and he hath much work in cities of Judah; and men of war, mighty of valour, [are] in Jerusalem.
Li te gen anpil depo nan vil a Juda yo ak gèrye yo, mesye ki plen kouraj Jérusalem yo.
14 And these [are] their numbers, for the house of their fathers: Of Judah, heads of thousands, Adnah the head, and with him mighty ones of valour, three hundred chiefs.
Men kontwòl selon lakay a papa zansèt yo: nan Juda, chèf a dè milye yo, Adna, chèf la avèk twa-san-mil mesye plen kouraj;
15 And at his hand [is] Jehohanan the head, and with him two hundred and eighty chiefs.
epi akote li, Jochanan, chèf la, avèk de-san-katre-ven-mil mesye plen kouraj;
16 And at his hand [is] Amasiah son of Zichri, who is willingly offering himself to Jehovah, and with him two hundred chiefs, mighty of valour.
epi akote li, Amasia, fis a Zicri a, ki te konsakre volontèman a SENYÈ a, avèk de-san-mil mesye plen kouraj.
17 And of Benjamin: mighty of valour, Eliada, and with him, armed with bow and shield, two hundred chiefs.
Pou Benjamin: Éliada, yon nonm plen kouraj, avèk de-san-mil mesye lame avèk banza ak boukliye defans,
18 And at his hand [is] Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty chiefs, armed ones of the host.
epi akote li, Zozobad, avèk san-katreven-mil mesye pou fè lagè.
19 These [are] those serving the king, apart from those whom the king put in the cities of fortress, in all Judah.
Se te sila ki te nan sèvis wa yo, yo pa menm konte sila ke wa a te pozisyone nan tout vil fòtifye pami tout Juda yo.
