1And Josaphat king of Juda returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
1猶大 王 約沙法 平平安安地回 耶路撒冷 ，到宮裏去了。
2And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer met him, and said to him: Thou helpest the ungodly, and thou art joined in friendship with them that hate the Lord, and therefore thou didst deserve indeed the wrath of the Lord:
2先見 哈拿尼 的兒子 耶戶 出來迎接 約沙法 王，對他說：「你豈當幫助惡人，愛那恨惡耶和華的人呢？因此耶和華的忿怒臨到你。
3But good works are found in thee, because thou hast taken away the groves out of the land of Juda, and hast prepared thy heart to seek the Lord the God of thy fathers.
3然而你還有善行，因你從國中除掉木偶，立定心意尋求上帝。」
4And Josaphat dwelt at Jerusalem: and he went out again to the people from Bersabee to mount Ephraim, and brought them back to the Lord the God of their fathers.
4約沙法 住在 耶路撒冷 ，以後又出巡民間，從 別是巴 直到 以法蓮 山地，引導民歸向耶和華－他們列祖的上帝；
5And he set judges of the land in all the fenced cities of Juda, in every place.
5又在 猶大 國中遍地的堅固城裏設立審判官，
6And charging the judges, he said: Take heed what you do: for you exercise not the judgment of man, but of the Lord: and whatsoever you judge, it shall redound to you.
6對他們說：「你們辦事應當謹慎；因為你們判斷不是為人，乃是為耶和華。判斷的時候，他必與你們同在。
7Let the fear of the Lord be with you, and do all things with diligence: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, a nor respect of persons, nor desire of gifts.
7現在你們應當敬畏耶和華，謹慎辦事；因為耶和華－我們的上帝沒有不義，不偏待人，也不受賄賂。」
8In Jerusalem also Josaphat appointed Levites, and priests and chiefs of the families of Israel, to judge the judgment and the cause of the Lord for the inhabitants thereof.
8約沙法 從 利未 人和祭司，並 以色列 族長中派定人，在 耶路撒冷 為耶和華判斷，聽 民間的 爭訟，就回 耶路撒冷 去了。
9And he charged them, saying: Thus shall you do in the fear of the Lord faithfully, and with a perfect heart.
9約沙法 囑咐他們說：「你們當敬畏耶和華，忠心誠實辦事。
10Every cause that shall come to you of your brethren, that dwell in their cities, between kindred and kindred, wheresoever there is question concerning the law, the commandment, the ceremonies, the justifications: shew it them, that they may not sin against the Lord, and that wrath may not come upon you and your brethren: and so doing you shall not sin.
10住在各城裏你們的弟兄，若有爭訟的事來到你們這裏，或為流血，或犯律法、誡命、律例、典章，你們要警戒他們，免得他們得罪耶和華，以致他的忿怒臨到你們和你們的弟兄；這樣行，你們就沒有罪了。
11And Amarias the priest your high priest shell be chief in the things which regard God: and Zabadias the son of Ismahel, who is ruler in the house of Juda, shall be over those matters which belong to the king’s office: and you have before you the Levites for masters, take courage and do diligently, and the Lord will be with you in good things.
11凡屬耶和華的事，有大祭司 亞瑪利雅 管理你們；凡屬王的事，有 猶大 支派的族長 以實瑪利 的兒子 西巴第雅 管理你們；在你們面前有 利未 人作官長。你們應當壯膽辦事，願耶和華與善人同在。」
