Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1亞撒 的兒子 約沙法 接續他作王，奮勇自強，防備 以色列 人，
1And Josaphat his son reigned in his stead, and grew strong 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。
2And he placed numbers of soldiers in all the fortified cities of Juda. And he put garrisons in the land of Juda, and in the cities of Ephraim, which Asa his father had taken.
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 ，
3And the Lord was with Josaphat, because he walked in the first ways of David his father: and trusted not in Baalim,
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 in the God of his father, and walk in his commandments, and not according to the sins 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。
5And the Lord established the kingdom in his hand, and all Juda brought presents to Josaphat: and he acquired immense riches, and much glory.
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 when his heart had taken courage for the ways of the Lord, he took away also the high places and the groves out of Juda.
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。
7And in the third year of his reign, he sent of his princes Benhail, and Abdias, and Zacharias, and Nathanael, and Micheas, to teach in the cities of Juda:
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。
8And with them the Levites, Semeias, and Nathanias, and Zabadias, and Asael, and Semiramoth, and Jonathan, and Adonias, and Tobias, and Thobadonias Levites, and with them Elisama, and Joram priests.
9他們帶着耶和華的律法書，走遍 猶大 各城教訓百姓。
9And they taught the people in Juda, having with them the book of the law of the Lord: and they went about all the cities of Juda, and instructed 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 fear of the Lord came upon all the kingdoms of the lands that were round about Juda, and they durst not make war against Josaphat.
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。
11The Philistines also brought presents to Josaphat, and tribute in silver, and the Arabians brought him cattle, seven thousand seven hundred rams, and as many he goats.
12約沙法 日漸強大，在 猶大 建造營寨和積貨城。
12And Josaphat grew, and became exceeding great: and he built in Juda houses like towers, and walled cities.
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 he prepared many works in the cities of Juda: and he had warriors, and valiant men in Jerusalem.
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；
14Of whom this is the number of the houses and families of every one: in Juda captains of the army, Ednas the chief, and with him three hundred thousand most valiant men.
15其次是，千夫長 約哈難 率領 大能的勇士 －二十八萬；
15After him Johanan the captain, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand.
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 after him was Amasias the son of Zechri, consecrated to the Lord, and with him were two hundred thousand valiant men.
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；
17After him was Eliada valiant in battle, and with him two hundred thousand armed with bow and shield.
18其次是， 約薩拔 率領預備打仗的－十八萬。
18After him also was Jozabad, and with him a hundred and eighty thousand ready for war.
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。
19All these were at the hand of the king, beside others, whom he had put in the walled cities, in all Juda.
