¹And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead, and strengthened himself against Israel.

¹Ja tema poeg Joosafat sai tema asemel kuningaks; tema kindlustas ennast Iisraeli vastu.

²And he placed forces in all the fenced cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.

²Ta pani sõjaväe kõigisse Juuda kindlustatud linnadesse ja paigutas valveüksused Juuda maale ja Efraimi linnadesse, mis tema isa Aasa oli vallutanud.

³And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto Baalim;

³Ja Issand oli Joosafatiga, sest ta käis oma isa Taaveti varasematel teedel ega otsinud baale,

⁴But sought to the Lord God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.

⁴vaid ta otsis oma isa Jumalat ja käis tema käskude järgi ega teinud nagu Iisrael.

⁵Therefore the LORD stablished the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat presents; and he had riches and honor in abundance.

⁵Issand kinnitas kuningriigi tema kätte ja kogu Juuda tõi Joosafatile ande; ja tal oli palju rikkust ning au.

⁶And his heart was lifted up in the ways of the LORD: moreover he took away the high places and groves out of Judah.

⁶Issanda teedel olles oli ta süda julge ja peale selle kõrvaldas ta Juudast veel ohvrikünkad ja viljakustulbad.

⁷Also 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.

⁷Oma valitsemise kolmandal aastal läkitas ta oma vürstid Ben-Haili, Obadja, Sakarja, Netaneeli ja Miika Juuda linnadesse õpetama,

⁸And 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.

⁸ja koos nendega leviidid Semaja, Netanja, Sebadja, Asaeli, Semiramoti, Joonatani, Adonija, Toobija ja Toob-Adonija - leviidid; ja koos nendega preestrid Elisama ja Joorami.

⁹And 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.

⁹Need õpetasid Juudas ja neil oli kaasas Issanda Seaduse raamat; nad käisid läbi kõik Juuda linnad ja õpetasid rahvast.

¹⁰And the fear of the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, so that they made no war against Jehoshaphat.

¹⁰Hirm Issanda ees valdas kõiki Juuda ümberkaudsete maade kuningriike ja need ei sõdinud Joosafati vastu.

¹¹Also 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 he goats.

¹¹Ja vilistite poolt toodi Joosafatile ande ja rahamaksu; isegi araablased tõid temale lambaid ja kitsi: seitse tuhat seitsesada jäära ja seitse tuhat seitsesada sikku.

¹²And Jehoshaphat waxed great exceedingly; and he built in Judah castles, and cities of store.

¹²Ja Joosafat sai üha vägevamaks ning ta ehitas Juudasse kindlustatud paiku ja tagavaraladude linnu.

¹³And he had much business in the cities of Judah: and the men of war, mighty men of valor, were in Jerusalem.

¹³Temal olid suured tagavarad Juuda linnades ja sõjamehed, vahvad võitlejad, Jeruusalemmas.

¹⁴And 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 valor three hundred thousand.

¹⁴Ja niisugune oli nende teenistuslik jaotus vastavalt nende perekondadele: Juuda tuhandepealikud: pealik Adna ja koos temaga kolmsada tuhat vahvat võitlejat;

¹⁵And next to him was Jehohanan the captain, and with him two hundred and fourscore thousand.

¹⁵tema kõrval pealik Joohanan ja koos temaga kakssada kaheksakümmend tuhat;

¹⁶And next him was Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself unto the LORD; and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valor.

¹⁶tema kõrval Amasja, Sikri poeg, kes oli enese vabatahtlikult Issandale pühendanud, ja koos temaga kakssada tuhat vahvat võitlejat.

¹⁷And of Benjamin; Eliada a mighty man of valor, and with him armed men with bow and shield two hundred thousand.

¹⁷Benjaminist: Eljada, vahva võitleja, ja koos temaga kakssada tuhat, kes olid relvastatud ammu ja kilbiga;

¹⁸And next him was Jehozabad, and with him an hundred and fourscore thousand ready prepared for the war.

¹⁸tema kõrval Joosabad ja koos temaga sada kaheksakümmend tuhat, kes olid sõjaks varustatud.

¹⁹These waited on the king, beside those whom the king put in the fenced cities throughout all Judah.

¹⁹Need teenisid kuningat; ja peale nende olid need, keda kuningas oli pannud kindlustatud linnadesse kogu Juudas.
