¹Oo waxaa meeshiisii boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Yehooshaafaad, oo wuxuu u xoogaystay si uu dadka Israa'iil isaga daafaco.

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

²Oo wuxuu ciidan fadhiisiyey magaalooyinkii deyrka lahaa oo dalka Yahuudah oo dhan, oo rugo askareedna ayuu dhex dhigay dalkii Yahuudah iyo weliba magaalooyinkii reer Efrayim oo aabbihiis Aasaa uu mar hore qabsaday.

²And 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.

³Oo Rabbiguna Yehooshaafaad wuu la jiray, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ku socday jidkii hore oo awowgiis Daa'uud, oo Bacaliimna ma uu doonin,

³And Jehovah was with Jehoshaphat, for he walked in the first ways of his father David, and sought not unto the Baals;

⁴laakiinse wuxuu doonay Ilaahii awowgiis, oo wuxuu ku socday amarradiisii, mana uu yeelin falimihii dadka Israa'iil.

⁴but he sought the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel.

⁵Oo sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu boqortooyadii gacantiisuu ku xoogeeyey, oo dadkii Yahuudah oo dhammuna Yehooshaafaad ayay hadiyado u keeni jireen, oo isagu wuxuu lahaa maal iyo sharaf badan.

⁵And Jehovah established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave gifts to Jehoshaphat; and he had riches and honour in abundance.

⁶Oo qalbigiisuna wuxuu u sara kacay inuu qaado jidadka Rabbiga, oo weliba wuxuu dalka Yahuudah ka baabbi'iyey meelihii sarsare iyo geedihii Asheeraah.

⁶And he took courage in the ways of Jehovah; moreover, he removed the high places and Asherahs out of Judah.

⁷Oo haddana sannaddii saddexaad oo boqortooyadiisa ayuu diray amiirradiisii oo ahaa Benxayl, iyo Cobadyaah, iyo Sekaryaah, iyo Netaneel, iyo Miikaayaah inay magaalooyinka dalka Yahuudah dadka wax ku baraan,

⁷And 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;

⁸oo wuxuu la diray kuwii reer Laawi oo ahaa Shemacyaah, iyo Netanyaah, iyo Sebadyaah, iyo Casaaheel, iyo Shemiiraamood, iyo Yehoonaataan, iyo Adoniiyaah, iyo Toobiyaah, iyo Toob Adooniyaah, oo waxaa kaloo iyaga la jiray wadaaddadii ahaa Eliishaamaac iyo Yehooraam.

⁸and 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.

⁹Oo iyana dalka Yahuudah ayay dadka wax ku bareen iyagoo wata kitaabkii sharciga Rabbiga, oo waxay ku dhex wareegeen magaalooyinkii dalka Yahuudah oo dhan, oo dadkiina wax bay bareen.

⁹And 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.

¹⁰Oo boqortooyooyinkii dalalkii ku wareegsanaa dalka Yahuudah oo dhan waxaa ku dhacday Rabbiga cabsidiisii, oo sidaas daraaddeed iyagu Yehooshaafaad lama ayan diririn.

¹⁰And the terror of Jehovah was upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Judah, and they made no war against Jehoshaphat.

¹¹Oo reer Falastiin qaarkood ayaa Yehooshaafaad u keenay gabbaro iyo lacag baad ah, oo weliba Carabtiina waxay u keeneen adhi badan oo ah toddoba kun iyo toddoba boqol oo wan iyo toddoba kun iyo toddoba boqol oo orgi.

¹¹And 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.

¹²Oo Yehooshaafaadna aad iyo aad buu u sii weynaaday, oo wuxuu dalka Yahuudah ka dhex dhisay qalcado iyo magaalooyin wax lagu kaydiyo.

¹²And Jehoshaphat waxed exceeding great; and he built in Judah castles and store-cities.

¹³Oo magaalooyinka dalka Yahuudah waxaa loogu dhex sameeyey shuqullo badan, oo Yeruusaalemna waxaa u joogay rag dagaalyahan ah oo xoog badan.

¹³And he had much business in the cities of Judah; and men of war, strong and valiant, in Jerusalem.

¹⁴Oo tanuna waa tiradoodii iyo sidii ay reerahoodu kala ahaayeen, saraakiishii kun kun u talin jiray ee dadkii Yahuudah waxaa ka joogay Cadnaah oo sirkaal ahaa, oo waxaa isaga la jiray rag xoog badan oo ah saddex boqol oo kun,

¹⁴And 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;

¹⁵oo waxaa isaga ku xigay Yehooxaanaan oo sirkaal ahaa, oo waxaa isaga la jiray laba boqol iyo siddeetan kun oo nin,

¹⁵and next to him was Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand;

¹⁶oo isna waxaa ku xigay Camasyaah ina Sikrii oo Rabbiga ikhtiyaarkiisa isugu bixiyey, oo isna waxaa la jiray laba boqol oo kun oo ah rag xoog badan.

¹⁶and next to him, Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to Jehovah; and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour.

¹⁷Oo reer Benyaamiinna waxaa ka joogay Elyaadaac oo ahaa nin xoog badan, oo isna waxaa la jiray laba boqol oo kun oo nin oo sita qaanso iyo gaashaan,

¹⁷And of Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valour, and with him two hundred thousand, armed with bow and shield;

¹⁸oo isna waxaa ku xigay Yehoosaabaad, waxaana isaga la jiray boqol iyo siddeetan kun oo nin oo dagaal loo diyaariyey.Oo kuwanu waxay ahaayeen intii boqorka u adeegi jirtay, oo ayan ku jirin kuwii uu boqorku fadhiisiyey magaalooyinkii deyrka lahaa oo dalka Yahuudah ku yiil oo dhan.

¹⁸and next to him was Jehozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready prepared for war.

¹⁹Oo kuwanu waxay ahaayeen intii boqorka u adeegi jirtay, oo ayan ku jirin kuwii uu boqorku fadhiisiyey magaalooyinkii deyrka lahaa oo dalka Yahuudah ku yiil oo dhan.

¹⁹These were they that waited on the king, besides those that the king had put in the fortified cities throughout Judah.
