< 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 reigned in his stead, and strengthened himself 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.
And he placed 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 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 walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto the Baalim;
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 sought to the God of his father, and walked in His commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.
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.
Therefore the LORD established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat presents; and he had riches and honour in abundance.
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.
And his heart was lifted up in the ways of the LORD; and furthermore he took away the high places and the Asherim 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.
Also in the third year of his reign he sent his princes, even Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities 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 the Levites, even Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tob-adonijah, the Levites; and with them 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 taught in Judah, having the book of the Law of the LORD with them; and they went about throughout all the cities of Judah, and taught among 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 a terror from the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, so that they made no war 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 brought Jehoshaphat presents, and silver for tribute; the Arabians also brought him flocks, seven thousand and seven hundred rams, and seven thousand and 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.
And Jehoshaphat waxed great exceedingly; and he built in Judah castles and cities of store.
13 A nui kana hana ma na kulanakauhale o Iuda, a nui hoi na kanaka kaua, ka poe ikaika ma Ierusalema.
And he had many works in the cities of Judah; and men of war, mighty men of valour, 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
And this was the numbering of them according to their fathers' houses: of Judah, the captains of thousands: Adnah the captain, and with him mighty men of valour three hundred thousand;
15 A mahope ona, o Iehohanana, ka luna, a o ka poe me ia, elua haneri a me kanawalu tausani.
and next to him Jehohanan the captain, and with him two hundred and fourscore 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.
and next to him Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself unto the LORD, and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour;
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 of Benjamin: Eliada a mighty man of valour, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bow and shield;
18 A mahope ona o lehozabada, a o ka poe me ia ka poe makaukau ma ke kaua, hookahi haneri me kanawalu tausani.
and next to him Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and fourscore thousand ready prepared 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 they that waited on the king beside those whom the king put in the fortified cities throughout all Judah.
