2 Crônicas 17
1 E Josaphat seu filho reinou em seu lugar: e fortificou-se contra Israel.
And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, and strengthened himself against Israel.
2 E pôs gente de guerra em todas as cidades fortes de Judá e pôs guarnições na terra de Judá, como também nas cidades de Ephraim, que Asa seu pai tinha tomado.
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, which Asa his father had taken.
3 E o Senhor foi com Josaphat; porque andou nos primeiros caminhos de David seu pai, e não buscou a Baalim.
And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not to Baalim;
4 Antes buscou ao Deus de seu pai, e andou nos seus mandamentos, e não segundo as obras de Israel.
But sought to the LORD God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.
5 E o Senhor confirmou o reino na sua mão, e todo o Judá deu presentes a Josaphat: e teve riquezas e glória em abundância.
Therefore the LORD established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat tribute; and he had riches and honour in abundance.
6 E exaltou-se o seu coração nos caminhos do Senhor e ainda de mais tirou os altos e os bosques de Judá.
And his heart was lifted up in the ways of the LORD: moreover he took away the high places and groves out of Judah.
7 E no terceiro ano do seu reinado enviou ele os seus príncipes, a Benchail, e a Obadias, e a Zacarias, e a Nathanael, e a Michaia, para ensinarem nas cidades de Judá.
Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes, even to Benhail, and to Obadiah, and to Zechariah, and to Nethaneel, and to Michaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah.
8 E com eles os levitas, Semaias e Nethanias, e Zebadias, e Asael, e Semiramoth, e Jonathan, e Adonias, e Tobias, e Tobadonias, levitas: e com eles os sacerdotes, Elisama e Jorão.
And with them he sent Levites, even Shemaiah, and Nethaniah, and Zebadiah, and Asahel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehonathan, and Adonijah, and Tobijah, and Tobadonijah, Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, priests.
9 E ensinaram em Judá e tinham consigo o livro da lei do Senhor: e rodearam todas as cidades de Judá, e ensinaram entre o povo.
And they taught in Judah, and had the book of the law of the LORD with them, and went about throughout all the cities of Judah, and taught the people.
10 E veio o temor do Senhor sobre todos os reinos das terras, que estavam em roda de Judá e não guerrearam contra Josaphat.
And the fear of the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, so that they made no war against Jehoshaphat.
11 E alguns dentre os philisteus traziam presentes a Josaphat, com o dinheiro do tributo: também os arabios lhe trouxeram gado miúdo; sete mil e setecentos carneiros, e sete mil e setecentos bodes.
Also some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents, and tribute silver; and the Arabians brought him flocks, seven thousand and seven hundred rams, and seven thousand and seven hundred male goats.
12 Cresceu pois Josaphat e se engrandeceu extremamente: e edificou fortalezas e cidades de munições em Judá.
And Jehoshaphat became exceedingly great; and he built in Judah fortresses, and cities of store.
13 E teve muitas obras nas cidades de Judá e gente de guerra, varões valentes em Jerusalém.
And he had much business in the cities of Judah: and the men of war, mighty men of valour, were in Jerusalem.
14 E este é o número deles segundo as casas de seu pais: em Judá eram chefes dos milhares: o chefe Adna, e com ele trezentos mil varões valentes;
And these are the numbers of them according to the house of their fathers: Of Judah, the captains of thousands; Adnah the chief, and with him mighty men of valour three hundred thousand.
15 E após ele o chefe Johanan, e com ele duzentos e oitenta mil;
And next to him was Jehohanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand.
16 E após ele Amasias, filho de Zichri, que voluntariamente se entregou ao Senhor, e com ele duzentos mil varões valentes:
And next to him was Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to the LORD; and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour.
17 E de Benjamin Eliada, varão valente, e com ele duzentos mil, armados de arco e de escudo:
And of Benjamin; Eliada a mighty man of valour, and with him armed men with bow and shield two hundred thousand.
18 E após ele Jozabad: e com ele cento e oitenta mil armados para a guerra.
And next to him was Jehozabad, and with him an hundred and eighty thousand ready prepared for the war.
19 Estes estavam no serviço do rei; a fora os que o rei tinha posto nas cidades fortes por todo o Judá.
These waited on the king, besides those whom the king put in the fortified cities throughout all Judah.
