Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1亞撒 的兒子 約沙法 接續他作王，奮勇自強，防備 以色列 人，
1Asa’s son Jehoshaphat reigned in his place, and he strengthened himself against Israel.
2安置軍兵在 猶大 一切堅固城裏，又安置防兵在 猶大 地和他父 亞撒 所得 以法蓮 的城邑中。
2He stationed troops in every fortified city of Judah and put garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim that his father Asa had captured.
3耶和華與 約沙法 同在；因為他行他祖 大衛 初行的道，不尋求 巴力 ，
3Now the LORD was with Jehoshaphat because he walked in the earlier ways of his father David. He did not seek out the Baals,
4只尋求他父親的上帝，遵行他的誡命，不效法 以色列 人的行為。
4but he sought the God of his father and walked by His commandments rather than the practices of Israel.
5所以耶和華堅定他的國， 猶大 眾人給他進貢； 約沙法 大有尊榮資財。
5So the LORD established the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah brought him tribute, so that he had an abundance of riches and honor.
6他高興遵行耶和華的道，並且從 猶大 除掉一切邱壇和木偶。
6And his heart took delight in the ways of the LORD; furthermore, he removed the high places and Asherah poles from Judah.
7他作王第三年，就差遣臣子 便‧亥伊勒 、 俄巴底 、 撒迦利雅 、 拿坦業 、 米該亞 往 猶大 各城去教訓百姓。
7In the third year of his reign, Jehoshaphat sent his officials Ben-hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah to teach in the cities of Judah,
8同着他們有 利未 人 示瑪雅 、 尼探雅 、 西巴第雅 、 亞撒黑 、 示米拉末 、 約拿單 、 亞多尼雅 、 多比雅 、 駝‧巴多尼雅 ，又有祭司 以利沙瑪 、 約蘭 同着他們。
8accompanied by certain Levites—Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tob-adonijah—along with the priests Elishama and Jehoram.
9他們帶着耶和華的律法書，走遍 猶大 各城教訓百姓。
9They taught throughout Judah, taking with them the Book of the Law of the LORD. They went throughout the towns of Judah and taught the people.
10耶和華使 猶大 四圍的列國都甚恐懼，不敢與 約沙法 爭戰。
10And the dread of the LORD fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands that surrounded Judah, so that they did not make war against Jehoshaphat.
11有些 非利士 人與 約沙法 送禮物，納貢銀。 阿拉伯 人也送他公綿羊七千七百隻，公山羊七千七百隻。
11Some Philistines also brought gifts and silver as tribute to Jehoshaphat, and the Arabs brought him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats from their flocks.
12約沙法 日漸強大，在 猶大 建造營寨和積貨城。
12Jehoshaphat grew stronger and stronger, and he built fortresses and store cities in Judah
13他在 猶大 城邑中有許多工程，又在 耶路撒冷 有戰士，就是大能的勇士。
13and kept vast supplies in the cities of Judah. He also had warriors in Jerusalem who were mighty men of valor.
14他們的數目，按着宗族，記在下面： 猶大 族的千夫長 押拿 為首率領大能的勇士－三十萬；
14These are their numbers according to the houses of their fathers: From Judah, the commanders of thousands: Adnah the commander, and with him 300,000 mighty men of valor;
15其次是，千夫長 約哈難 率領 大能的勇士 －二十八萬；
15next to him, Jehohanan the commander, and with him 280,000;
16其次是， 細基利 的兒子 亞瑪斯雅 （他為耶和華犧牲自己）率領大能的勇士－二十萬。
16and next to him, Amasiah son of Zichri, the volunteer for the LORD, and with him 200,000 mighty men of valor.
17便雅憫 族，是大能的勇士 以利雅大 率領拿弓箭和盾牌的－二十萬；
17From Benjamin: Eliada, a mighty man of valor, and with him 200,000 armed with bows and shields;
18其次是， 約薩拔 率領預備打仗的－十八萬。
18and next to him, Jehozabad, and with him 180,000 armed for battle.
19這都是伺候王的，還有王在 猶大 全地堅固城所安置的不在其內。
19These were the men who served the king, besides those he stationed in the fortified cities throughout Judah.
