1 Le esiawo megbe la, Moabtɔwo kple Amonitɔwo ho aʋa ɖe Yehosafat ŋu. Ke Meunitetɔ aɖewo kpe ɖe wo ŋu.

And messangeris camen, and schewiden to Josaphat, seiden, A greet multitude of tho placis that ben biyondis the see, and of Sirie, is comun ayens thee; and, lo! thei stonden in Asasonthamar, which is Engaddi.
3 Nya sia na vɔvɔ̃ ɖo Yehosafat ale gbegbe be, wòɖo ta me be yeabia Yehowa ne wòakpe ɖe ye ŋu eya ta wòɖe gbeƒã bena, Yudatɔwo katã natsi nu adɔ ɣeyiɣi aɖe, aɖe asi le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ŋu eye woado gbe ɖa na Mawu.
Forsothe Josaphat was aferd by drede, and `yaf hym silf al for to preye `the Lord, and prechide fastynge to al Juda.
4 Amewo tso Yuda ƒe akpa ɖe sia ɖe eye wowɔ ɖeka kple Yehosafat heɖe kuku na Yehowa.
And Juda was gaderid togidere for to preye the Lord, but also alle men camen fro her citees for to biseche hym.
5 Yehosafat tsi tsitre ɖe ameawo dome le gbedoxɔ la ƒe xɔxɔnu yeye la eye wòdo gbe ɖa bena,
And whanne Josaphat hadde stonde in the myddis of the cumpeny of Juda and of Jerusalem, in the hows of the Lord, bifor the newe large place,
6 “Oo Yehowa, mía fofowo ƒe Mawu, Mawu ɖeka si le dziƒowo, wòe nye anyigbadzifiaɖuƒewo katã Dziɖula, wò ŋusẽ tri akɔ, ame kae ate ŋu atsi tsitre ɖe ŋuwò?
he seide, Lord God of oure fadris, thou art God in heuene, and thou art lord of alle rewmes of folkis; strengthe and power ben in thin hond, `and noon may ayenstonde thee.
7 Oo míaƒe Mawu, ɖe menye wòe nya trɔ̃subɔla siwo nɔ anyigba sia dzi, esi Israel, wò amewo va ɖo la ɖa oa? Ɖe menye wòe tsɔ anyigba sia na xɔ̃wò Abraham ƒe dzidzimeviwo oa?
Whether not thou, oure God, hast slayn alle the dwelleris of this lond bifor thi puple Israel, and hast youe it to the seed of Abraham, thi freend, withouten ende?
8 Wò amewo tso aƒe ɖe afi sia, wotu gbedoxɔ sia na wò
And thei dwelliden therynne, and bildiden therinne a seyntuarie to thi name, and seiden,
9 eye woxɔe se be, le ŋɔdziɣi abe esia ene la, ne nukpekeamewo va mía dzi abe aʋawɔwɔ, dɔléle alo dɔwuame ene la, míate ŋu atsi tsitre ɖe afi sia, le gbedoxɔ sia ŋgɔ elabena èle afi sia, le gbedoxɔ sia me, míado ɣli ayɔ wò be nàɖe mí eye míeka ɖe edzi be, àse míaƒe kukuɖeɣliwo eye nàɖe mí.
If yuelis comen on vs, the swerd of doom, pestilence, and hungur, we schulen stonde bifor this hows withouten ende in thi siyt, in which hows thi name is clepid, and we schulen crie to thee in oure tribulaciouns; and thou schalt here vs, and schalt make vs saaf.
10 “Azɔ la, kpɔ nu si Amon ƒe viwo, Moabtɔwo kple Seirtɔwo ƒe aʋakɔwo le wɔwɔm ɖa. Mèna mía tɔgbuiwo wɔ aʋa kpli wo esime Israel dzo le Egipte o, ale míeƒo xlã to wo ŋu eye míetsrɔ̃ wo o.
Now therfor lo! the sones of Amon and of Moab and the hil of Seir, bi whiche thou grauntidist not to the sones of Israel for to passe, whanne thei yeden out of Egipt, but thei bowiden awei fro hem, and killiden not hem,
11 Azɔ la, kpɔ ale si wodi be yewoaɖo eteƒe na mí ɖa! Wova be woanya mí le wò anyigba si nèna mí la dzi.
thei doon ayenward, and enforsen to caste vs out of the possessioun, which thou, oure God, hast youe to vs;
12 Oo míaƒe Mawu, màxe mɔ na wo oa? Míate ŋu anɔ te ɖe aʋakɔ sesẽ sia nu o. Míenya nu si míawɔ o eya ta míele wò asinu kpɔm.”
therfor whether thou schalt not deme hem? Treuli in vs is not so greet strengthe, that we moun ayenstonde this multitude, that felde yn on vs; but sithen we witen not what we owen to do, we `han oneli this residue, that we dresse oure iyen to thee.
13 Esi ame siwo tso Yuda ƒe akpa ɖe sia ɖe tsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ŋkume kple wo srɔ̃wo kple wo viwo la,
Sotheli al Juda stood bifor the Lord, with her litle children and wyues and fre children.
14 Yehowa ƒe Gbɔgbɔ va dze ame siwo nɔ tsitre ɖe afi ma la dometɔ ɖeka dzi. Ame siae nye Yahaziel, ame si fofoe nye Zekaria, ame si fofoe nye Benaya, ame si fofoe nye Yeiel, ame si fofoe nye Matania, Levi ƒe vi, ame si nye Asaf ƒe viwo dometɔ ɖeka.
Forsothe Hiaziel, the sone of Zacarie, sone of Ananye, sone of Hieyel, sone of Machanye, was a dekene, and of the sones of Asaph, on whom the Spirit of the Lord was maad in the myddis of the cumpeny,
15 Yahaziel gblɔ be, “Miɖo tom, mi ame siwo katã tso Yuda kple Yerusalem kple wò, Fia Yehosafat. Yehowa be, ‘Migavɔ̃ o! Migana aʋakɔ gã sia nana dzidzi naƒo mi o elabena aʋa la menye mia tɔe o ke boŋ Mawu tɔe!
and he seide, Al Juda, and ye that dwellen in Jerusalem, and thou, king Josaphat, perseyue ye, the Lord seith these thingis to you, Nyle ye drede, nether be ye aferd of this multitude, for it is not youre batel, but Goddis batel.
16 Miyi miakpe aʋa kpli wo etsɔ! Miakpɔ wo le Ziz to la kɔgo le balime si yi ɖe Yeruel gbegbe la ƒe nuwuwu!
To morewe ye schulen stie `ayens hem; for thei schulen stie bi the side of the hil, `bi name Seys, and ye schulen fynde hem in the hiynesse of the stronde, which is ayens the wildirnesse of Jheruhel.
17 Ke mahiã be miawɔ aʋa kura o! Miyi ɖanɔ miaƒe teƒewo ko ne miakpɔ ale si Mawu aɖe mi nukutɔe la ɖa. Oo Yuda kple Yerusalem ƒe amewo! Migavɔ̃ o eye migabu dzideƒo hã o! Miawo miyi afi ma etsɔ ko elabena Yehowa li kpli mi!’”
For it schulen not be ye, that schulen fiyte; but oneli stonde ye trustili, and ye schulen se the help of the Lord on you. A! Juda and Jerusalem, nyle ye drede, nether be ye aferd; to morewe ye schulen go out ayens hem, and the Lord schal be with you.
18 Eye Fia Yehosafat mlɔ anyigba, tsyɔ mo anyi eye Yuda blibo la kple Yerusalemtɔwo katã hã wɔ nenema henɔ Yehowa subɔm.
Therfor Josaphat, and Juda, and alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem, felden lowli on the erthe bifor the Lord, and worschypiden hym.
19 Eye Levitɔwo tso Kohat kple Korah ƒe hlɔ̃wo me tsi tsitre hekafu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu kple kafukafuha siwo me kɔ eye wodzi ha sesĩe.
Forsothe the dekenes of the sones of Caath, and of the sones of Chore, herieden the Lord God of Israel with greet vois an hiy.
20 Yuda ƒe aʋakɔ la ho ŋdi kanyaa yi Tekoa gbegbe. Esi wonɔ mɔa dzi yina la, Yehosafat tɔ ameawo eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miɖo tom, Yuda kple Yerusalemtɔwo. Mixɔ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la dzi se ekema miaɖu dzi! Mixɔ eƒe nyagblɔɖilawo dzi se ekema nu sia nu adze edzi na mi!”
And whanne thei hadden rise eerli, thei yeden not bi the deseert of Thecue; and whanne thei `hadden gon forth, Josaphat stood in the myddis of hem, and seide, Juda and alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem, here ye me; bileue ye in `youre Lord God, and ye schulen be sikur; bileue ye to hise prophetis, and alle prosperitees schulen come.
21 Le aɖaŋuɖoɖo kple dukɔa kplɔlawo vɔ megbe la, eɖo be hadzilawo nado awu siwo ŋu wokɔ, anɔ zɔzɔm le aʋakɔ la ŋgɔ, “Atsɔ kafukafu kple akpedada na Yehowa eye woanɔ ha dzim be, eƒe amenuveve li tegbee.”
And he yaf counsel to the puple, and he ordeynede the syngeris of the Lord, that thei schulden herye hym in her cumpanyes, and that thei schulden go bifor the oost, and seie with acordynge vois, Knouleche ye to the Lord, for he is good; for his merci is `in to the world.
22 Esi wode asi kafukafuha la dzidzime ko la, Yehowa na Amon ƒe viwo kple Moab ƒe viwo kple Seir ƒe to la ƒe aʋakɔwo de asi aʋawɔwɔ me kple wo nɔewo eye wowu wo ŋutɔwo ƒe amewo!
And whanne thei bigunnen to synge heriyngis, the Lord turnede the buyschementis of hem `in to hem silf, that is, of the sones of Amon and of Moab and of the hil of Seir, that yeden out to fiyte ayens Juda; and thei weren slayn.
23 Amon ƒe viwo kple Moab ƒe viwo trɔ ɖe ame siwo wotsɔ be woawɔ aʋa na yewo to Seir to la dzi la ŋu eye wowu wo katã. Le esia megbe la, wotrɔ ɖe wo nɔewo ŋu!
For whi the sones of Amon and of Moab risiden togidere ayens the dwelleris of the hil of Seir, to sle, and to do awey hem; and whanne thei hadden do this in werk, thei weren `turned also `in to hem silf, and felden doun togidere bi woundis ech of othere.
24 Ale esi Yuda ƒe aʋakɔ la va ɖo xɔ tsrala si dzi dzɔlawo nɔna kpɔa gbegbe la ɖa gbɔ la, wokpɔ ame kukuwo le anyigba le afi sia afi, ame ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã mete ŋu si dzo o.
Certis whanne Juda was comun to the denne, that biholdith the wildirnesse, he siy afer al the large cuntrei ful of deed bodies, and that noon was left, that miyte ascape deeth.
25 Fia Yehosafat kple eƒe amewo yi ɖaha nuwo le ame kukuawo ŋu. Wokpɔ ga, awuwo kple kpe xɔasi geɖewo ɖe le wo ŋu ale gbegbe be wotsɔ ŋkeke etɔ̃ sɔŋ lɔ afunyinuawo!
Therfor Josaphat cam, and al the puple with hym, to drawe awey the spuylis of deed men, and thei founden among the deed bodies dyuerse purtenaunce of houshold, and clothis, and ful preciouse vessels; and thei rauyischiden in dyuerse maneres, so that thei myyten not bere alle thingis, nether thei myyten take awei the spuylis bi thre daies, for the greetnesse of prey.
26 Le ŋkeke enelia gbe la, woƒo ƒu ɖe balime si woyɔna va se ɖe egbe be Yayrabalime la eye wokafu Mawu ale si woate ŋui.
Sotheli in the fourthe dai thei weren gaderid togidere in the valey of Blessyng; `forsothe for thei blessiden the Lord there, thei clepiden that place the valei of Blessyng `til in to present dai.
27 Ale Yehosafat nɔ ŋgɔ na ameawo eye wotrɔ gbɔ va Yerusalem kple dzidzɔ be Yehowa ɖe yewo nukutɔe alea tso yewoƒe futɔwo ƒe asi me.
And ech man of Juda turnede ayen, and the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and Josaphat bifor hem, in to Jerusalem with greet gladnesse; for the Lord God hadde youe to hem ioye of her enemyes.
28 Wozɔ ge ɖe Yerusalem du la me esime wonɔ kasaŋkuwo kple saŋkuwo ƒom nɔ kpẽwo kum eye woyi ɖe gbedoxɔ la me.
And thei entriden in to Jerusalem with sawtrees, and harpis, and trumpis, in to the hows of the Lord.
29 Abe ale si wòdzɔ kpɔ va yi ene la, esi dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã wo se be, Yehowa ŋutɔe wɔ aʋa kple Israel ƒe futɔwo la, vɔvɔ̃ ɖo wo le Mawu ŋu.
Forsothe the drede of the Lord felde on alle the rewmes of londis, whanne thei hadden herd, that the Lord hadde fouyte ayens the enemies of Israel.
30 Ale ŋutifafa nɔ Yehosafat ƒe fiaɖuƒe me elabena eƒe Mawu na dzudzɔe.
And the rewme of Josaphat restide; and the Lord yaf `pees to hym `bi cumpas.
31 Fia Yehosafat ƒe nyawo le ale: Ezu Yuda fia esi wòxɔ ƒe blaetɔ̃ vɔ atɔ̃ eye wòɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe blaeve vɔ atɔ̃. Dadaa ŋkɔe nye Azuba, Silhi ƒe vinyɔnu.
Therfor Josaphat regnede on Juda; and he was of fyue and thritti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne; sotheli he regnede fyue and twenti yeer in Jerusalem; and the name of his modir was Azuba, the douytir of Selathi.
32 Yehosafat nye fia nyui aɖe abe fofoa, Asa ene; edze agbagba ɣe sia ɣi be yeadze Yehowa ŋu,
And he yede in the weie of Asa his fadir, and bowide not fro it, and he dide what euer thingis weren plesaunt bifor the Lord.
33 ke meɖe nuxeƒewo ɖa le togbɛawo dzi o eye ameawo hã meɖo ta me be yewoasubɔ wo fofowo ƒe Mawu haɖe o,
Netheles he dide not awei hiy thingis; yit the puple hadde not dressid her herte to the Lord God of her fadris.
34 Woŋlɔ nu sia nu tso Yehosafat ƒe fiaɖuɖu ŋu ɖe ŋutinya si Yehu, Hanani ƒe vi, ŋlɔ wode Israel fiawo Ƒe Ŋutinya me la me.
Forsothe the residue of the formere and the laste dedis of Josaphat ben writun in the book of Hieu, the sone of Anany, which he ordeynede in the book of kyngis of Israel.
35 Ke le eƒe agbe ƒe nuwuwu la, Yuda fia Yehosafat wɔ ɖeka kple Israel fia, Ahazia, ame si nye ame vɔ̃ɖi aɖe.
After these thingis Josaphat, kyng of Juda, made frendschipis with Ocozie, kyng of Israel, whose werkis weren ful yuele;
36 Ebla nu kplii be yeatu tɔdziʋuwo le Ezion Geber be woanɔ Tarsis dem.
and he was parcener that thei maden schippis, that schulden go in to Tharsis; and thei maden o schip in to Asiongaber.
37 Eliezer si nye Dodavahu ƒe vi, tso Maresa gblɔ nya ɖi ɖe Yehosafat ŋu be, “Esi nèwɔ ɖeka kple Fia Ahazia ta la, Yehowa gblẽ wò dɔwɔwɔwo me.” Ale tɔdziʋuawo gbã le mɔa dzi eye womete ŋu ɖo Tarsis o.
Sotheli Eliezer, sone of Dodan, of Maresa, profesiede to Josaphat, and seide, For thou haddist boond of pees with Ocozie, the Lord smoot thi werkis; and the schippis ben brokun, and myyten not go in to Tharsis.
