2 Cronicas 19
1 Nakasubli a sikakaradkad ni Jehosafat nga ari ti Juda iti balayna idiay Jerusalem.
And Jehoshaphat king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
2 Kalpasanna, rimmuar a mangsabat kenkuana ni Jehu a propeta a putot ni Hanani ket kinunana kenni Ari Jehosafat, “Rumbeng kadi a tulongam dagiti nadangkes? Rumbeng kadi nga ayatem dagiti manggurgura kenni Yahweh? Gapu iti daytoy nga inaramidmo, kapungtotnaka ni Yahweh.
And Jehu the son of Hanani, the seer, went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate Jehovah? Therefore is wrath upon thee from Jehovah.
3 Nupay kasta, adda naimbag nga inaramidmo. Inikkatmo dagiti tekken ni Asera iti daga, ken impamaysam ti pusom iti Dios.”
Nevertheless there are good things found in thee; for thou hast put away the Asherahs out of the land, and hast directed thy heart to seek God.
4 Nagnaed ni Jehosafat idiay Jerusalem; ket nagdaliasat manen isuna a napan kadagiti tattao, manipud Beerseba agingga iti katurturodan ti Efraim ket pinagsublina ida kenni Yahweh, a Dios dagiti ammada.
And Jehoshaphat dwelt in Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people from Beer-sheba to mount Ephraim, and brought them back to Jehovah the God of their fathers.
5 Nangisaad isuna kadagiti ukom iti amin a nasarikedkedan a siudad ti Juda, iti tunggal siudad ti Juda.
And he set judges in the land throughout the fortified cities of Judah, city by city.
6 Kinunana kadagiti ukom, “Panunotenyo ti rumbeng nga aramidenyo, gapu ta saankayo a manguk-ukom para iti tao, ngem para kenni Yahweh; adda isuna kadakayo iti pananguk-ukomyo.
And he said to the judges, Take heed what ye do; for ye judge not for man, but for Jehovah, who will be with you in the matter of judgment.
7 Ket ita, umay koma kadakayo ti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh. Agannadkayo no mangukomkayo, ta awan basol kenni Yahweh a Diostayo, wenno awan ti aniaman a panangidumduma wenno pasuksok kenkuana.”
And now, let the terror of Jehovah be upon you; be careful what ye do, for there is no iniquity with Jehovah, nor respect of persons, nor taking of presents.
8 Maysa pay, nangdutok met ni Jehosafat kadagiti sumagmamano a Levita ken papadi idiay Jerusalem ken kadagiti sumagmamano a panguloen kadagiti pamilia dagiti Israelita, a mangukom para kenni Yahweh, ken mangrisut kadagiti pagririan. Agnanaedda idiay Jerusalem.
— And moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set some of the Levites and priests, and of the chief fathers of Israel, for the judgment of Jehovah and for causes. — And they returned to Jerusalem.
9 Binilinna ida, a kunana, “Aramidenyo dagiti pagrebbenganyo a sibubuteng kenni Yahweh, sipupudno, ken iti isu-aminyo, kastoy ti aramidenyonto:
And he charged them saying, Thus shall ye do in the fear of Jehovah faithfully and with a perfect heart.
10 No adda idatagda kadakayo a riri manipud kadagiti kakabsatyo nga agnanaed kadagiti siudadda, pammapatay man wenno maipapan kadagiti linteg, bilbilin, alagaden ken paglintegan, nasken a ballaaganyo ida tapno saanda nga agbasol kenni Yahweh, ken tapno saan nga agdissuor ti pungtotna kadakayo ken kadagiti kakabsatyo. No agtinaykayo iti kastoy a wagas, saankayo nga agbasol.
And what cause soever comes to you of your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and ordinances, ye shall even warn them that they trespass not against Jehovah, and so wrath come upon you and upon your brethren: this do and ye shall not trespass.
11 Adtoy, ni Amarias, a panguloen a padi, ket isu ti mangimaton kadakayo maipanggep iti amin a banbanag maipapan kenni Yahweh. Ni Zebadias a putot ni Ismael, a mangidadaulo iti balay ti Juda, ket isu ti mangimaton kadagiti amin a pakaseknan ti ari. Kasta met, a dagiti Levita dagiti opisial nga agserbi kadakayo. Agtignaykayo a situtured, ket sapay koma ta adda ni Yahweh kadagiti naimbag.”
And behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of Jehovah, and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, prince of the house of Judah, in all the king's matters; and ye have the Levites before you as officers. Be strong and do it, and Jehovah will be with the good.
