2 Cronicas 17
1 Ni Jehosafat a putotna ti naisaad nga ari a kasukatna ket pinapigsana ti armadana a sumaranget iti Israel.
Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his place, and strengthened himself against Israel.
2 Nangipuesto isuna kadagiti soldado kadagiti amin a nasarikedkedan a siudad ti Juda, ken nangipasdek kadagiti kampo ti soldado iti daga ti Juda ken kadagiti siudad ti Efraim, a sinakup ni Asa nga amana.
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 Adda ni Yahweh kenni Jehosafat gapu ta nagbiag isuna a sililinteg a kas iti inaramid ni David nga amana kadagiti umuna a tawen ti panagturayna, ken saan isuna a nagdaydayaw kadagiti Baal.
YHWH was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father, and did not seek the Baals,
4 Ngem ketdi, nagtalek isuna iti Dios ti amana, ken tinungpalna dagiti bilbilinna, saanna a sinurot dagiti wagas dagiti tattao ti Israel.
but sought to the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.
5 Isu a pinatalged ni Yahweh ti panangituray ni Jehosafat iti pagarian ti Juda; nangiyeg dagiti amin a taga-Juda iti sagudta kenni Jehosafat. Addaan isuna iti aglaplapusanan a kinabaknang ken dayaw.
Therefore YHWH established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat tribute; and he had riches and honor in abundance.
6 Naipamaysa ti pusona kadagiti wagas ni Yahweh. Inikkatna met dagiti pagdawdayawan ken dagiti tekken ni Asera iti Juda.
His heart was lifted up in the ways of YHWH: and furthermore he took away the high places and the Asherim out of Judah.
7 Iti maika-3 a tawen iti panangiturayna, imbaonna dagiti opisialna a da Benhail, Obadias, Zacarias, Netanel, ken Micaias, a mangisuroda kadagiti siudad ti Juda.
Also in the third year of his reign he sent his officials, even Ben Hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah;
8 Kadduada dagiti Levita; a da Semaias, Netanias, Zebadias, Asael, Semiramot, Jehonatan, Adoniha, Tobijas ken Tobadonijas; ket kaduada dagiti papadi a da Elesama ken Jehoram.
and with them the Levites, even Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tobadonijah, the Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.
9 Nangisuroda idiay Juda, intugotda ti Libro ti Linteg ni Yahweh. Napanda kadagiti amin a siudad ti Juda ket nangisuroda kadagiti tattao.
They taught in Judah, having the scroll of the law of YHWH with them; and they went about throughout all the cities of Judah, and taught among the people.
10 Ti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh ket nagdissuor kadagiti amin a pagarian kadagiti daga iti aglawlaw ti Juda, isu a saanda a ginubgubat ni Jehosafat.
The fear of YHWH fell on all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, so that they made no war against Jehoshaphat.
11 Nangiyeg dagiti sumagmamano a Filisteo kadagiti sagutda kenni Jehosafat, ken pirak a kas buisda. Nangiyeg met kenkuana dagiti taga-Arab kadagiti arban, 7, 700 a kalakian a karnero, ken 7, 700 a kalding.
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 male goats.
12 Bimmileg iti kasta unay ni Jehosafat. Nangipatakder isuna kadagiti sarikedked ken kadagiti siudad a pangidulinan iti abasto idiay Juda.
Jehoshaphat grew great exceedingly; and he built in Judah fortresses and cities of store.

He had many works in the cities of Judah; and men of war, mighty men of valor, in Jerusalem.
