2 Tarihi 17
1 Yehoshafat ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki ya kuma kahu sosai gāba da Isra’ila.
And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, —and strengthened himself against Israel;
2 Ya kafa mayaƙa a dukan biranen katangar Yahuda, ya kuma sa runduna a Yahuda da kuma a garuruwan Efraim da mahaifinsa Asa ya ci da yaƙi.
and put 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.
3 Ubangiji kuwa yana tare da Yehoshafat domin a shekarunsa na farko-farko ya yi tafiya a hanyoyin da kakansa Dawuda ya bi. Bai nemi shawarar Ba’al ba
And it came to pass, that, Yahweh, was with Jehoshaphat, —because he walked in the first ways of David his father, and sought not unto the Baalim;
4 amma ya nemi Allah na kakansa ya kuma bi umarnansa a maimakon ayyukan da Isra’ila ke yi.
for, unto the God of his father, he sought, and, in his commandments, he walked, —and not according to the doing of Israel.
5 Ubangiji ya kafa mulkin a ƙarƙashin ikonsa; dukan Yahuda kuwa suka kawo kyautai wa Yehoshafat, ta haka ya yi arziki sosai da kuma girma.
Therefore did Yahweh establish the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah gave a present unto Jehoshaphat, —and he came to have riches and honour, in abundance.
6 Zuciyarsa ta duƙufa ga hanyoyin Ubangiji, bugu da ƙari, ya kawar masujadan kan tudu da ginshiƙan Ashera daga Yahuda.
And his heart was encouraged, in the ways of Yahweh, —and he, yet further, took away the high places and the Sacred Stems, out of Judah.
7 A shekara ta uku ta mulkinsa, ya aiki ma’aikatansa Ben-Hayil, Obadiya, Zakariya, Netanel da Mikahiya su yi koyarwa a garuruwan Yahuda.
And, in the third year of his reign, he sent to his rulers, even to Ben-hail and to Obadiah and to Zechariah, and to Nethanel, and to Micaiah, —that they were to teach throughout the cities of Judah;
8 Tare da su akwai waɗansu Lawiyawa, Shemahiya, Netaniya, Zebadiya, Asahel, Shemiramot, Yehonatan, Adoniya, Tobiya da Tob Adoniya, da kuma firistoci Elishama da Yehoram.
and, with them, Levites, Shemaiah and Nethaniah and Zebadiah and Asahel and Shemiramoth and Jehonathan, and Adonijah and Tobijah and Tob-adonijah, Levites, —and, with them, Elishama and Jehoram, priests;
9 Suka yi koyarwa a dukan Yahuda, suna ɗauke da Littafin Dokar Ubangiji tare da su; suka tafi ko’ina a dukan garuruwan Yahuda suka koyar da mutane.
and they taught throughout Judah, and, with them, was the book of the law of Yahweh, —so they went round throughout all the cities of Judah, and taught the people.
10 Tsoron Ubangiji ya kama dukan masarautun ƙasashen da suke kewaye da Yahuda, har ba su yi yaƙi da Yehoshafat ba.
And it came to pass, that, the dread of Yahweh, was upon all the kingdoms of the countries, that were round about Judah, —and they warred not against Jehoshaphat.
11 Waɗansu Filistiyawa suka kawo wa Yehoshafat kyautai da azurfa a matsayin haraji, Larabawa kuwa suka kawo masa garkuna, raguna dubu bakwai da ɗari bakwai da kuma awaki dubu bakwai da ɗari bakwai.
And, from among the Philistines, were they bringing in unto Jehoshaphat a present, and silver as tribute, —even the Arabians, were bringing in unto him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats.
12 Yehoshafat ya yi ta ƙaruwa a ƙarfi; ya gina katanga da biranen ajiya a Yahuda
And so it came to pass that, Jehoshaphat, went on waxing surpassingly great, —and he built, throughout Judah, fortresses and cities for store;
13 da kuma tanade-tanade masu yawa a garuruwan Yahuda. Ya kuma ajiye gogaggu mayaƙa a Urushalima.
and, much business, had he, throughout the cities of Judah, —but, the men of war, the heroes of valour, were in Jerusalem.
14 Ɗaukar da aka yi musu bisa ga iyalai yana kamar haka. Daga Yahuda, shugaban ƙungiya 1,000. Adna ne shugaba, tare da jarumawa 300,000;
And, these, are the numbers of them, by their ancestral house, —To Judah, pertained rulers of thousands, Adnah the chief, and, with him, mighty men of valour, three hundred thousand;
15 biye da shi, Yehohanan shi ne shugaba, yana da sojoji 280,000;
and, under his direction, was Jehohanan the chief, —and, with him, two hundred and eighty thousand;
16 biye da shi, Amasiya ɗan Zikri, wanda ya ba da kansa da yardar rai don hidimar Ubangiji, yana da sojoji 200,000.
and, under his direction, Amasiah son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself unto Yahweh, —and, with him, two hundred thousand heroes of valour.
17 Daga Benyamin, Eliyada, jarumi soja, yana da sojoji 200,000 riƙe da baka da garkuwoyi;
And, out of Benjamin, a hero of valour, Eliada, —and, with him, armed with bow and buckler, two hundred thousand;
18 biye da shi, Yehozabad, yana da sojoji 18,000 shiryayyu don yaƙi.
and, under his direction, Jehozabad, —and, with him, a hundred and eighty thousand, equipped for war.
19 Waɗannan su ne suka yi wa sarki hidima, ban da waɗanda aka sa a biranen katanga ko’ina a Yahuda.
These, were they who were waiting upon the king, —besides those whom the king placed in the fortified cities, throughout all Judah.
