2 Cronicas 14
1 Pimmusay ni Abias ket intabonda isuna iti siudad ni David. Ni Asa a putotna ti simmukat kenkuana nga ari. Kadagiti aldawna, adda talna iti daga iti las-ud ti sangapulo a tawen.
And Abijah lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David, and reign doth Asa his son in his stead: in his days was the land quiet ten years.
2 Inaramid ni Asa ti nasayaat ken nalinteg iti imatang ni Yahweh a Diosna,
And Asa doth that which is good, and that which is right, in the eyes of Jehovah his God,
3 ta inikkatna dagiti altar dagiti didiosen ken dagiti pagdaydayawan; rinebbana dagiti nasagradoan nga adigi a bato ken tinumbana dagiti tekken ni Asera.
and turneth aside the altars of the stranger, and the high places, and breaketh the standing-pillars, and cutteth down the shrines,
4 Binilinna ti Juda a sapulenda ni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanda, ken tungpalenda ti linteg ken dagiti bilinna.
and saith to Judah to seek Jehovah, God of their fathers, and to do the law and the command;
5 Inikkatna pay dagiti pagdaydayawan ken dagiti altar a pagpupuoran iti insenso kadagiti amin a siudad ti Juda. Natalna ti pagarian ti Juda iti babaen ti turayna.
and he turneth aside out of all cities of Judah the high places and the images, and the kingdom is quiet before him.
6 Nangibangon isuna kadagiti nasarikedkedan a siudad idiay Juda, ta adda talna iti daga, ken awan ti gubat kadagidiay nga aldaw, gapu ta inikkan isuna ni Yahweh iti talna.
And he buildeth cities of bulwarks in Judah, for the land hath quiet, and there is no war with him in these years, because Jehovah hath given rest to him.
7 Ta kinuna ni Asa iti Juda, “Bangonentayo dagitoy a siudad ken paderantayo ti aglawlaw dagitoy, agaramidtayo kadagiti torre, kadagiti ruangan ken kadagiti balunet; kukuatayo pay laeng ti daga gapu ta sinapultayo ni Yahweh a Diostayo. Sinapultayo isuna, ket inikkannatayo iti talna iti aglawlaw.” Isu a nangbangonda ket nagballigida.
And he saith to Judah, 'Let us build these cities, and compass [them] with wall, and towers, two-leaved doors, and bars, while the land [is] before us, because we have sought Jehovah our God, we have sought, and He giveth rest to us round about;' and they build and prosper.
8 Addaan ni Asa iti armada a nakaawit kadagiti kalasag ken gayang; addaan isuna iti 300, 000 a lallaki manipud iti Juda ken 280, 000 a lallaki manipud iti Benjamin a nakaawit kadagiti kalasag ken kadagiti pana. Amin dagitoy ket mamaingel ken natutured a lallaki.
And there is to Asa a force bearing target and spear, out of Judah three hundred thousand, and out of Benjamin, bearing shield and treading bow, two hundred and eighty thousand: all these [are] mighty of valour.
9 Rinaut ida ni Zera a taga-Etiopia a kaduana ti armadana a buklen ti maysa a milyon a soldado ken tallo gasut a karuahe; dimteng isuna idiay Maresa.
And come out unto them doth Zerah the Cushite with a force of a thousand thousand, and chariots three hundred, and he cometh in unto Mareshah,
10 Ket napan sinabat ni Asa isuna, sada nagpuesto iti tanap ti Zefata idiay Maresa.
and Asa goeth out before him, and they set battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
11 Immawag ni Asa kenni Yahweh a Diosna, a kunana, “O Yahweh, awanen sabali no di sika laeng ti makatulong iti awan pigsana inton adu ti sarangetenna. Tulongannakami O Yahweh a Diosmi, ta agtalekkami kenka, ket iti naganmo, sarangetenmi daytoy nga adu unay a soldado. O Yahweh, sika ti Diosmi; saanmo nga ipalubos a parmekennaka ti tao.”
And Asa calleth unto Jehovah his God, and saith, 'Jehovah! it is nothing with Thee to help, between the mighty and those who have no power; help us, O Jehovah, our God, for on Thee we have leant, and in Thy name we have come against this multitude; O Jehovah, our God thou [art]; let him not prevail with Thee — mortal man!
12 Isu a dinangran ni Yahweh dagiti taga-Etiopia iti sangoanan ni Asa ken ti Juda; naglibas dagiti taga-Etiopia.
And Jehovah smiteth the Cushim before Asa, and before Judah, and the Cushim flee,
13 Kinamat ida ni Asa ken dagiti soldado a kaduana agingga idiay Gerar. Isu nga adu unay a taga-Etiopia ti napasag ket saandan a makabangon, ta naan-anay a nadadaelda iti sangoanan ni Yahweh ken iti armadana. Nakaad-adu unay ti sinamsam ti armada ni Asa.
and Asa and the people who [are] with him pursue them even to Gerar, and there fall of the Cushim, for they have no preserving, because they have been broken before Jehovah, and before His camp; and they bear away very much spoil,
14 Dinadael ti armada dagiti amin a barrio iti aglawlaw ti Gerar, ta immay kadagiti agnanaed sadiay ti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh. Sinamsaman ti armada dagiti amin a barrio, ket adu unay ti masamsam kadagitoy.
and smite all the cities round about Gerar, for a fear of Jehovah hath been upon them, and they spoil all the cities, for abundant spoil hath been in them;
15 Dinadael met ti armada dagiti tolda a pagnanaedan dagiti agipaspastor; innalada dagiti adu a karnero, kasta met dagiti kamelio, sada nagsubli idiay Jerusalem.
and also tents of cattle they have smitten, and they capture sheep in abundance, and camels, and turn back to Jerusalem.
