Taariikhdii Labaad 19

1 Markaasaa Yehooshaafaad oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah nabad ugu noqday gurigiisa Yeruusaalem ku yaal.

And Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned unto his own house in peace, to Jerusalem.

2 Oo waxaa baxay oo isagii ka hor tegey Yeehuu ina Xanaanii oo wax arkihii ahaa, oo wuxuu Boqor Yehooshaafaad ku yidhi, War ma waxaa kuu ekayd inaad caawiso kuwa sharka ah iyo inaad jeclaato kuwo Rabbiga neceb? Waxan daraaddiis waxaa kugu soo degtay cadho Rabbiga hortiisa ka timid.

And there came out to meet him, Jehu son of Hanani, the seer, who said unto King Jehoshaphat, Unto the lawless, was it [right] to give help? and, on them who hate Yahweh, to bestow thy love? For this cause, therefore, is there wrath against thee, from before Yahweh;

3 Habase ahaatee waxyaalo wanaagsan baa lagaa helay, maxaa yeelay, waxaad dalka ka saartay geedihii Asheeraah, oo qalbigaagana waxaad u diyaarisay inaad Rabbiga doondoonto.

howbeit, good things, are found with thee, -for that thou hast consumed the Sacred Stems out of the land, and hast fixed thy heart to seek God.

4 Yehooshaafaad wuxuu degganaan jiray Yeruusaalem, oo haddana wuxuu dhex maray dadkii tan iyo Bi'ir Shebac iyo ilaa dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim, oo iyagii wuxuu u soo celiyey Rabbiga ah Ilaahii awowayaashood.

So Jehoshaphat dwelt in Jerusalem, —and he again went forth among the people, from Beersheba as far as the hill country of Ephraim, and brought them back unto Yahweh, the God of their fathers.

5 Oo dalkii oo dhan iyo magaalooyinkii deyrka lahaa oo dadka Yahuudah wuxuu magaalo ka magaalo fadhiisiyey xaakinno.

And he stationed judges in the land, throughout all the fortified cities of Judah, city by city;

6 Oo xaakinnadiina wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxa aad samaynaysaan ka fiirsada, waayo, idinku garsoorid dad u samayn maysaan, laakiinse waxaad u samaynaysaan Rabbiga, oo weliba isaguna garsooridda wuu idinla weheliyaa.

and said unto the judges, See what, ye, are doing, inasmuch as, not for man, must ye judge, but for Yahweh, —who will be with you, in the word of justice.

7 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ka cabsada, iska jira, oo saas yeela, waayo, xagga Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah dembi ma jiro, dadkana looma kala eexdo, laaluushna lama qaato.

Now, therefore, let the dread of Yahweh be upon you, —observe and do, for there is, with Yahweh our God, neither perversity nor respect of persons nor the taking of bribes.

8 Oo markay Yeruusaalem ku noqdeen ayaa Yehooshaafaad weliba Yeruusaalemna fadhiisiyey kuwii reer Laawi iyo wadaaddadii iyo madaxdii reeraha dadka Israa'iil inay sameeyaan Rabbiga garsooriddiisa iyo inay kuwii murma u garsooraan.

And, even in Jerusalem, did Jehoshaphat station some of the Levites and the priests, and of the ancestral chiefs of Israel, to pronounce the just sentence of Yahweh, and to settle disputes, —when they returned to Jerusalem.

9 Oo wuxuu iyagii amray oo ku yidhi, Saas yeela idinkoo Rabbiga ka cabsanaya oo aamin ah oo qalbigiinnu qumman yahay.

And he laid charge upon them, saying, —Thus, shall ye act, in the fear of Yahweh, faithfully and with an undivided heart.

10 Oo mar alla markii dacwo idiinka timaado walaalihiinna magaalooyinkooda deggan, taasoo u dhexaysa oo ah dhiig iyo dhiig, iyo sharci iyo amar, iyo qaynuun iyo xukummo, de markaas waa inaad u digtaan si aanay Rabbiga ugu dembaabin, oo aan taas aawadeed cadhada Rabbigu ugu soo degin idinka iyo walaalihiinba. Saas yeela oo eed lahaan maysaan.

Any dispute that shall come in unto you from among your brethren who are dwelling in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment and statutes and regulations, then shall ye warn them, that they may not become guilty against Yahweh, and so wrath come upon you and upon your brethren, —Thus, shall ye act, and not incur guilt.

11 Oo bal eega, axwaasha Rabbiga oo dhan waxaa idiinku sarrayn doona Amaryaah ah wadaadka sare, oo axwaasha boqorka oo dhanna waxaa idiinku sarrayn doona Sebadyaah ina Ismaaciil oo ah taliyaha reer Yahuudah, oo weliba reer Laawina hortiinnay saraakiil ku ahaan doonaan. Haddaba dhiirranaada oo Rabbiguna ha la jiro kuwii wanaagga sameeya.

And lo! Amariah the chief priest, is over you as to every matter of Yahweh, and Zebadiah son of Ishmael the chief ruler for the house of Judah, as to every matter of the king, and, as officers, the Levites are before you, —Be strong and act, and Yahweh be with the good!
