1And Jehoshaphat king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
1 Yahuda bonkoono Yehosafat binde ye nga kwaara baani samay Urusalima ra.
2And Jehu the son of Hanani, the seer, went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate Jehovah? Therefore is wrath upon thee from Jehovah.
2 Yehu Hanani izo kaŋ ga fonnay, nga mo fatta zama nga ma bonkoono kubay se. Kal a ne bonkoono Yehosafat se: «A ga hima ni se ni ma boro laaley gaa, wala? Ni ma ba borey kaŋ yaŋ ga konna Rabbi? Woodin se binde Rabbi futay korna go ni boŋ.
3Nevertheless there are good things found in thee; for thou hast put away the Asherahs out of the land, and hast directed thy heart to seek God.
3 Kulu nda yaadin a na hari hanno fooyaŋ gar ni do, za kaŋ ni na wayboro himandi bundu toorey kaa laabo ra, ni na ni bina daŋ mo ni ma Irikoy ceeci.»
4And Jehoshaphat dwelt in Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people from Beer-sheba to mount Ephraim, and brought them back to Jehovah the God of their fathers.
4 Yehosafat binde goro Urusalima ra. A ye ka fatta koyne ka furo borey ra za Beyer-Seba kal a koy Ifraymu tondey gaa. A ye ka kand'ey Rabbi i kaayey Irikoyo do.
5And he set judges in the land throughout the fortified cities of Judah, city by city.
5 A na ciitikoyaŋ mo daŋ laabo ra, Yahuda galley kulu kaŋ yaŋ gonda wongu cinarey ra, gallu ka koy gallu.
6And he said to the judges, Take heed what ye do; for ye judge not for man, but for Jehovah, who will be with you in the matter of judgment.
6 A ne ciitikoy se: «Araŋ ma laakal da haŋ kaŋ araŋ ga te, zama ciito kaŋ araŋ ga te, manti boro goy no, amma Rabbi goy no. Nga mo go araŋ banda ciiti ra.
7And now, let the terror of Jehovah be upon you; be careful what ye do, for there is no iniquity with Jehovah, nor respect of persons, nor taking of presents.
7 Woodin sabbay se, Rabbi humburkumay ma goro araŋ do. Araŋ ma laakal nda haŋ kaŋ araŋ ga te, zama laala si no Rabbi iri Irikoyo do, baar'a-baar'a si no, me-daabu taayaŋ mo si no.»
8-- And moreover in Jerusalem did Jehoshaphat set some of the Levites and priests, and of the chief fathers of Israel, for the judgment of Jehovah and for causes. -- And they returned to Jerusalem.
8 Urusalima ra mo Yehosafat na alfaga fooyaŋ da Lawi boro fooyaŋ, da Israyla kaayey windi jine boro fooyaŋ daŋ i ma Rabbi ciito te, i ma kakaw fay mo Urusalima borey game ra.
9And he charged them saying, Thus shall ye do in the fear of Jehovah faithfully and with a perfect heart.
9 A n'i lordi mo ka ne: «Ya-cine no araŋ ga te Rabbi humburkumay ra, da naanay, da bine folloŋ.
10And what cause soever comes to you of your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and ordinances, ye shall even warn them that they trespass not against Jehovah, and so wrath come upon you and upon your brethren: this do and ye shall not trespass.
10 Da kakaw fo kulu dumi kaa ka tun araŋ nya-izey kaŋ yaŋ goono ga goro ngey galley game ra, kuri nda kuri sanni, asariya nda lordi sanni, hin sanni nda farilla, araŋ g'i kabarandi i ma si ciya taali-teeriyaŋ Rabbi jine, zama futay ma si kaŋ araŋ d'araŋ nya-izey boŋ. Araŋ ma woodin te, araŋ si ciya taali-alhakku-koyyaŋ mo.
11And behold, Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of Jehovah, and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, prince of the house of Judah, in all the king's matters; and ye have the Levites before you as officers. Be strong and do it, and Jehovah will be with the good.
11 A go mo, alfaga beero Amariya go araŋ jine Rabbi muraadey kulu ra. Isumeyla izo Zebadiya kaŋ ga Yahuda dumo may, nga mo go araŋ jine bonkoono muraadey din kulu ra. Lawi borey mo ga ciya goy-teeriyaŋ araŋ jine. Wa te gaabi ka soobay ka goy da himma. Rabbi ma goro boro hanney banda.»
