Berean Standard Bible
1A MAHOPE iho o keia mau mea, hiki mai la ka Moaba, a me ka Amona, a me lakou pu kekahi poe e ae, aole no ka Amona, e kaua mai ia Iehosapata.
1After this, the Moabites and Ammonites, together with some of the Meunites, came to make war against Jehoshaphat.
2Hele mai la kekahi poe a hai mai ia Iehosapata, i mai la, E hiki mai ana i ou la he poe nui, mai kela aoao mai o ke kai mai Suria mai; aia hoi lakou ma Hazezona-tamara, oia o Enegedi.
2Then some men came and told Jehoshaphat, “A vast army is coming against you from Edom, from beyond the Sea; they are already in Hazazon-tamar” (that is, En-gedi).
3A makau iho la o Iehosapata, a halalo iho la kona maka e imi ia Iehova, a kukala aku la i la hookeai ma Iuda a pau loa.
3Jehoshaphat was alarmed and set his face to seek the LORD. And he proclaimed a fast throughout Judah.
4A hoakoakoa mai la ka Iuda e imi ia Iehova; noloko mai o na kulanakauhale a pau o Iuda i hele mai ai lakou e imi ia Iehova.
4So the people of Judah gathered to seek the LORD, and indeed, they came from all the cities of Judah to seek Him.
5Alaila, ku iluna o Iehosapata iloko o ka ahakanaka o Iuda a me Ierusalema, iloko o ka hale o Iehova imua o ka pahale hou;
5Then Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem in the house of the LORD in front of the new courtyard
6Olelo aku la, E Iehova ke Akua o ko makou poe kupuna, aole anei oe ke Akua o ka lani? aole anei oe e noho alii ana maluna o na aupuni a pau o na lahuikanaka, a iloko hoi o kou lima ka mana, a me ka ikaika, i hiki ole i kekahi ke ku e ia oe?
6and said, “O LORD, God of our fathers, are You not the God who is in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand, and no one can stand against You.
7Aole anei oe ko makou Akua, ka mea nana i kipaku i ko keia aina imua o kou poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a haawi ia mea i ka poe mamo a Aberahama kou mea i aloha ai, i mea mau loa.
7Our God, did You not drive out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham Your friend?
8A noho lakou malaila, a kukulu lakou no kou inoa i luakini, me ka i ana aku,
8They have lived in the land and have built in it a sanctuary for Your Name, saying,
9I ka hiki ana mai o ka mea ino maluna o makou, o ka pahi kaua, o ka hoopaiia mai, o ke ahulau, a o ka wi, a ku makou imua o keia hale, a imua ou, (no ka mea, aia iloko o keia hale kou inoa,) a kahea aku ia oe i ko makou wa pilikia, alaila e hoolohe mai oe, a e hoola.
9‘If disaster comes upon us—whether sword or judgment, plague or famine—we will stand before this temple and before You, for Your Name is in this temple. We will cry out to You in our distress, and You will hear us and save us.’
10Ano, eia hoi ka Amona, a me ka Moaba, a me ko ka mauna o Seira, ka poe au i haawi ole ai i ka Iseraela e hele io lakou la, i ko lakou hele ana mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, no ia mea, huli lakou mai o lakou aku, aole i luku ia lakou.
10And now, here are the men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, whom You did not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt; but Israel turned away from them and did not destroy them.
11Eia hoi ko lakou uku ana mai ia makou, hele mai lakou e kipaku mai ia makou mai ko makou ainahooili aku, ka mea au i haawi mai ai ia makou.
11See how they are repaying us by coming to drive us out of the possession that You gave us as an inheritance.
12E ko makou Akua e, aole anei oe e hoopai ia lakou? no ka mea, aole o makou mana imua o keia poe nui, ka poe i hele ku e mai ia makou; aole makou i ike i ka mea e pono ai makou ke hana, aka, ia oe ko makou mau maka.
12Our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this vast army that comes against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.”
13A ku imua o Iehova ka Iuda a pau loa, me ko lakou poe uuku, a me ka lakou poe wahine, a me ka lakou poe kamalii.
13Meanwhile all the men of Judah, with their wives and children and little ones, were standing before the LORD.
14Alaila, i ke ku ana o Iahaziela iwaena o ka ahakanaka, kau mai la ka Uhane o Iehova maluna ona, oia ke keiki a Zekaria, ke keiki a Benaia, ke keiki a Matanaia ka Levi, no ka poe mamo a Asapa.
14Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jahaziel son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite from Asaph’s descendants, as he stood in the midst of the assembly.
15Olelo mai la oia, E hoolohe oukou, e ka Iuda a pau, a me ko Ierusalema, a o oe kekahi, e ke alii, e Iehosapata, penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova, Mai makau oukou, aole hopohopo imua o keia poe nui; no ka mea, aole ia oukou ke kaua. i ke Akua no.
15And he said, “Listen, all you people of Judah and Jerusalem! Listen, King Jehoshaphat! This is what the LORD says: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army, for the battle does not belong to you, but to God.
16I ka la apopo e iho ku e oukou io lakou la, aia hoi lakou e pii mai ana i ka pali o Ziza; a e loaa lakou ia oukou ma ke kapa o ke kahawai imua o ka waonahele o Ieruela.
16Tomorrow you are to march down against them. You will see them coming up the Ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the valley facing the Wilderness of Jeruel.
17Aole oukou e kaua i keia manawa, e hoomakaukau oukou, e ku malie, a e nana i ko Iehova hoola ana mai ia oukou, e ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema; mai makau oukou, mai hopohopo; i ka la apopo, e hele ku e aku oukou io lakou la. O Iehova pu kekahi me oukou.
17You need not fight this battle. Take up your positions, stand firm, and see the salvation of the LORD on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid or discouraged. Go out and face them tomorrow, for the LORD is with you.’”
18Alaila, kulou iho la o Iehosapata ilalo kona maka i ka honua; a o ka Iuda a pau, a me ko Ierusalema, haule iho la lakou ilalo imua o Iehova, e hoomana aku ia Iehova.
18Then Jehoshaphat bowed facedown, and all the people of Judah and Jerusalem fell down before the LORD to worship Him.
19Ku iluna na Levi, no na Kohata, a me na Kora, o hoolea aku ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela me ka leo kiekie.
19And the Levites from the Kohathites and Korahites stood up to praise the LORD, the God of Israel, shouting in a very loud voice.
20Ala lakou i ke kakahiaka nui, a hele lakou i ka waonahele o Tekoa; a i ko lakou bele ana aku, ku iluna o Iehosapata, olelo aku la, E hoolohe mai ia'u e ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema; e manaoio ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua, i hookupaaia oukou; e manaoio i kana poe kaula, i lanakila oukou.
20Early in the morning they got up and left for the Wilderness of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood up and said, “Hear me, O people of Judah and Jerusalem. Believe in the LORD your God, and you will be upheld; believe in His prophets, and you will succeed.”
21A kukakuka pu oia me na kanaka, a hoonoho oia i kekahi poe hoolea mele ia Iehova o hoomaikai aku i ka nani o kona hemolele, i ko lakou hele ana imua o ka poe kaua, i ka i ana aku, E hoolea aku ia Iehova; no ka mea, ua mau loa kona aloha.
21Then Jehoshaphat consulted with the people and appointed those who would sing to the LORD and praise the splendor of His holiness. As they went out before the army, they were singing: “Give thanks to the LORD, for His loving devotion endures forever.”
22A i ka wa o ko lakou hoolea ana, a hoomaikai aku, hoonoho iho la o Iehova i poe hoohalua mahope o na mamo a Amona, a me Moaba, a me ko ka mauna o Seira, i ko lakou hele ku e ana ia Iuda; a ua lukuia lakou.
22The moment they began their shouts and praises, the LORD set ambushes against the men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir who had come against Judah, and they were defeated.
23O ka poe mamo a Amona a me ka Moaba, ku e lakou i ko ka mauna o Seira, a luku, a pepehi ia lakou a pau loa, a hoopau lakou i ko Seira; alaila, mokuahana iho la lakou, a pepehi lakou i kekahi i kekahi.
23The Ammonites and Moabites rose up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir, devoting them to destruction. And when they had made an end to the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
24A hiki ka Iuda i ka halekiai ma ka waonahele, nana aku la i ka lehulehu, aia hoi, na heana o ka poe i haule i ka honua, aole wahi mea pakele.
24When the men of Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked for the vast army, but there were only corpses lying on the ground; no one had escaped.
25A hiki o Iehosapata a me kona poe kanaka e lawe aku i ka waiwai pio, ua loaa ia lakou ka waiwai nui loa ma ka ili o na heana, a me na mea maikai loa, a ua hao iho la lakou ia mau mea no lakou iho, aole pau i ka haliia; a ekolu la o ko lakou hali ana i ka waiwai pio, no ka mea, ua nui loa ia.
25Then Jehoshaphat and his people went to carry off the plunder, and they found on the bodies an abundance of goods and valuables —more than they could carry away. They were gathering the plunder for three days because there was so much.
26A i ka po aha, hoakoakoaia lakou ma ke awawa o Beraka; no ka mea, malaila lakou i hoomaikai aku ai ia Iehova; no ia mea, ua kapaia ka inoa o ia wahi, o ke awawa o I Beraka a hiki i keia la.
26On the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Beracah, where they blessed the LORD. Therefore that place is called the Valley of Beracah to this day.
27Alaila, hoi ka Iuda a pau a me ko Ierusalema, a o Iehosapata ka mea mamua, i ka hoi ana i Ierusalema, me ka olioli; no ka mea, ua hoohauoli o Iehova ia lakou maluna o ko lakou poe enemi.
27Then all the men of Judah and Jerusalem, with Jehoshaphat at their head, returned joyfully to Jerusalem, for the LORD had made them rejoice over their enemies.
28A hoi mai lakou i Ierusalema me na mea kani, a me na mea ukeke, a me na pu, i ka hale o Iehova.
28So they entered Jerusalem and went into the house of the LORD with harps, lyres, and trumpets.
29A kau mai ka weliweli i ke Akua maluna o na aupuni o ka honua, i ko lakou lohe ana, ua kaua aku o Iehova i ka poe enemi o ka Iseraela.
29And the fear of God came upon all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that the LORD had fought against the enemies of Israel.
30A ua maluhia ke aupuni o Iehosapata, a ua hoomalu mai kona Akua ia ia a puni.
30Then Jehoshaphat’s kingdom was at peace, for his God had given him rest on every side.
31A noho alii o Iehosapata maluna o ka Iuda. He kanakolukumamalima makahiki kona i kona hoomaka ana e noho alii, a noho alii ia i na makahiki he iwakaluakumamalima, a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Azuba, ke kaikamahine a Silehi.
31So Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-five years. His mother’s name was Azubah daughter of Shilhi.
32A hele ia ma ka aoao o kona makuakane o Asa, aole i huli mai ia aoao aku; ua hana oia i na mea pololei i na maka o Iehova.
32And Jehoshaphat walked in the way of his father Asa and did not turn away from it; he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD.
33Aka, aole i hoohioloia na wahi kiekie: aole hoomakaukau na kanaka i ko lakou mau naau no ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
33The high places, however, were not removed; the people had not yet set their hearts on the God of their fathers.
34A o ke koena o na hana a Iehosapata, na mea mua, a me na mea hope, aia hoi, ua kakauia iloko o ka buke a Iehu ko keiki a Henani, ka mea i oleloia'i iloko o ka buke o na'lii o ka Iseraela.
34As for the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, from beginning to end, they are indeed written in the Chronicles of Jehu son of Hanani, which are recorded in the Book of the Kings of Israel.
35A mahope aku, hui pu o Iehosapata ke alii o Iuda me Ahazia, ko alii o ka Iseraela, ka mea i hana hewa.
35Later, Jehoshaphat king of Judah made an alliance with Ahaziah king of Israel, who acted wickedly.
36Huipu oia me ia e hana i mau moku e holo i Taresa. A hana no laua i mau moku ma Eziona-gebera.
36They agreed to make ships to go to Tarshish, and these were built in Ezion-geber.
37Alaila, wanana mai la o Eliezera ke keiki a Dodava no Maresa, ia Iehosapata, i mai la, I kou huipu ana me Ahazia, e wawahi auanei o Iehova i ka mea au i hana'i. A naha iho la na moku, aole i hiki ia lakou ke holo i Taresa.
37Then Eliezer son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, “Because you have allied yourself with Ahaziah, the LORD has destroyed your works.” So the ships were wrecked and were unable to sail to Tarshish.
