Вторая книга Паралипоменон 17
1 И воцарися Иосафат сын его вместо его, и укрепися Иосафат над Израилем:
And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, and strengthened himself against Israel.
2 расположи же силу во всех градех Иудиных крепких и постави воеводы во градех Иудиных и во градех Ефремовых ихже побра прежде Аса отец его.
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 that Asa his father had taken.
3 И бысть Господь со Иосафатом, яко хождаше в путех Давида отца своего первых и не взыска идолов,
And Jehovah was with Jehoshaphat, for he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto the Baals;
4 но Господа Бога отца своего взыска и пойде в повелениих отца своего, а не по делом Израилевым:
but he sought the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.
5 и укрепи Господь царство в руку его, и даша вся Иудеа дары Иосафату, и бысть ему богатство и слава многа.
And Jehovah established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave gifts to Jehoshaphat; and he had riches and honour in abundance.
6 И вознесеся сердце его в пути Господни, и ктому изя высокая и дубравы от земли Иудины.
And he took courage in the ways of Jehovah; moreover, he removed the high places and Asherahs out of Judah.
7 В третие же лето царства своего посла началники своя и сынов сильных Авдию и Захарию, и Нафанаила и Михеа, да учат во градех Иудиных:
And in the third year of his reign he sent his princes, Ben-hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethaneel, and Micah, to teach in the cities of Judah;
8 и с ними левити Самеа и Нафаниа, и Завдиа и Асиил, и Семирамоф и Ионафан, и Адониа и Товиа и Товадониа левити, и с ними Елисама и Иорам жерцы:
and with them the Levites: Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah, Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.
9 учаху же во Иудеи, имеюще книгу закона Господня, и прохождаху грады Иудины и учаху люди.
And they taught in Judah, and had the book of the law of Jehovah with them; and they went about through all the cities of Judah, and taught among the people.
10 И бысть страх Господень на всех царствах земных окрест Иуды, и не воеваша противу Иосафата.
And the terror of Jehovah was upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, and they made no war against Jehoshaphat.
11 И от иноплеменник Иосафату дары приношаху сребро и дани: Арави же привождаху ему овнов овчих седмь тысящ и седмь сот, и козлов седмь тысящ седмь сот.
And some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat gifts and tribute-silver. The Arabians also brought him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and seven thousand seven hundred he-goats.
12 И бе Иосафат предуспевая велик в высоту и созда во Иудеи домы и грады крепки.
And Jehoshaphat waxed exceeding great; and he built in Judah castles and store-cities.
13 И многа дела быша ему во Иудеи: и мужие ратницы крепцы сильнии во Иерусалиме.
And he had much business in the cities of Judah; and men of war, strong and valiant, in Jerusalem.
14 И сие число их по домом отечеств их: и во Иуде тысященачалницы Еднас вождь и с ним сынове сильнии силы триста тысящ:
And these are the numbers of them according to their fathers' houses. Of Judah the captains of thousands: Adnah the captain, and with him three hundred thousand mighty men of valour;
15 и по нем Иоанан началник и с ним двести осмьдесят тысящ:
and next to him was Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand;
16 по немже Амасиа, сын Захариин, усердсвуяй Господу и с ним двести тысящ мужей сильных.
and next to him, Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to Jehovah; and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour.
17 И от Вениаминя сильнии силы Елиад, и с ним держащих лук и щиты двести тысящ сильных:
And of Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valour, and with him two hundred thousand, armed with bow and shield;
18 и по нем Иозавад, и с ним сто осмьдесят тысящ, сильнии ко брани.
and next to him was Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready prepared for war.
19 Сии служащии царю, кроме оных, ихже постави царь по градом крепким во всей Иудеи.
These were they that waited on the king, besides those that the king had put in the fortified cities throughout Judah.
