II Oihanaalii 17
1 NOHO alii iho la o Iehosapata kana keiki mahope ona, A hooikaika ka e aku la oia i ka Iseraela.
And Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place, and made himself strong against Israel.
2 Hoonoho oia i ka poe koa iloko o na kulanakauhale a pau o Iuda i paa i ka pa, a hoonoho hoi i na puali koa ma ka aina o Iuda, a me na kulanakauhale o Eperaima, a Asa kona makuakane i hoopio ai.
He put forces in all the walled towns of Judah, and responsible chiefs in the land of Judah and in the towns of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.
3 Aia pu o Iehova me Iehosapata, no ka mea, hele oia ma na aoao mua o Davida o kona kupuna, aole hoi i imi oia ia Baala.
And the Lord was with Jehoshaphat, because he went in the early ways of his father, not turning to the Baals,
4 Aka, imi aku la oia i ke Akua o kona makuakane; a hele ma kona kanawai, aole e like me ka ka Iseraela hana ana.
But turning to the God of his father and keeping his laws, and not doing as Israel did.
5 Nolaila hookupaa iho la o Iehova i ke aupuni ma kona lima; a haawi ka luda a pau i na makana na Iehosapata; a ua nui kona waiwai, a me ka hanohano.
So the Lord made his kingdom strong; and all Judah gave offerings to Jehoshaphat, and he had great wealth and honour.
6 A ua ikaika kona naau ma na aoao o Iehova; a wawahi iho la ia i na wahi kiekie, a me na kii no Asetarota ma Iuda.
His heart was lifted up in the ways of the Lord; and he went so far as to take away the high places and the wood pillars out of Judah.
7 A i ka makahiki ekolu o kona aupuni, hoouna aku la oia i na luna ona, ia Benehaila, a me Obadia, a me Zekaria, a me Nataneela, a me Mikaia, e ao aku iloko o na kulanakauhale o luda.
In the third year of his rule he sent Benhail and Obadiah and Zechariah and Nethanel and Micaiah, his captains, as teachers into the towns of Judah;
8 A me lakou pu kekahi poe Levi, o Semaia, a me Netanaia, a me Zebadaia, a me Asahela, a me Semiramota, a me Iehonatana, a me Adonia, a me Tobia, a me Tobaadonia, o na Levi ia; a me lakou pu o Elisama a me Iehorama, na kahuna.
And with them, Shemaiah and Nethaniah and Zebadiah and Asahel and Shemiramoth and Jehonathan and Adonijah and Tobijah and Tob-adonijah, the Levites; and Elishama and Jehoram the priests.
9 A ao aku lakou ma Iuda, a lawe pu me lakou i ka buke o ke kanawai o Iehova, a hele lakou a puni na kulanakauhale a pau o luda, a ao aku i na kanaka.
And they gave teaching in Judah and had the book of the law of the Lord with them; they went through all the towns of Judah teaching the people.
10 Aia maluna o na aupuni a pau o na aina a puni o Iuda ka eehia ia Iehova, aole hoi i kaua mai lakou me Iehosapata.
And the fear of the Lord was on all the kingdoms of the lands round Judah, so that they made no wars against Jehoshaphat.
11 A o kekahi poe o Pilisetia, lawe mai la lakou io Iehosapata la i na makana, a me ke kala hookupu; a o ko Arabia no hoi kekahi, lawe mai la lakou ia ia i poe holoholona, i na hipa kane ehiku tausani, a me na haneri ehiku, a i na kao kane ehiku tausani a me na haneri ehiku.
And some of the Philistines took offerings to Jehoshaphat, and made him payments of silver; and the Arabians gave him flocks, seven thousand, seven hundred sheep, and seven thousand, seven hundred he-goats.
12 A lilo iho la o Iehosapata i mea nui loa, a kukulu iho la ia i mau papu ma Iuda, a i mau kulanakauhale waiho ukana.
Jehoshaphat became greater and greater, and made strong towers and store-towns in Judah.
13 A nui kana hana ma na kulanakauhale o Iuda, a nui hoi na kanaka kaua, ka poe ikaika ma Ierusalema.
He had much property in the towns of Judah; he had forces of armed men, great and strong, in Jerusalem.
14 Eia ka helu ana o lakou ma ka hale o ko lakou poe kupuna. No ka hale o Inda, o na luna tausani; o Adena ka luna, a o ka poe koa ikaika me ia, ekolu haneri tausani
This is the number of them, listed by their families, the captains of thousands of Judah: Adnah, the captain, and with him three hundred thousand men of war;
15 A mahope ona, o Iehohanana, ka luna, a o ka poe me ia, elua haneri a me kanawalu tausani.
Second to him Jehohanan, the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand;
16 A mahope ona, o Amazia, ke keiki a Zikeri, ka mea hookauwa oluolu na Iehova; a o ka poe kanaka ikaika me ia, elua haneri tausani.
After him Amasiah, the son of Zichri, who freely gave himself to the Lord, and with him two hundred thousand men of war;
17 No Beniamina, o Eliada he kanaka ikaika, a o ka poe me ia e lawe ana i ke kakaka, a me ka palekaua, elua haneri tausani.
And the captains of Benjamin: Eliada, a great man of war, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bows and body-covers;
18 A mahope ona o lehozabada, a o ka poe me ia ka poe makaukau ma ke kaua, hookahi haneri me kanawalu tausani.
And after him Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand trained for war.
19 Oia ka poe lawelawe na ke alii, okoa ka poe a ke alii i waiho ai ma na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa ma Iuda a pau loa.
These were the men who were waiting on the king, in addition to those placed by the king in the walled towns through all Judah.
