1It came to pass after this also, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them other beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
1Hae pacoengah, Moab kaminawk hoi Amon kaminawk loe thoemto Syria kaminawk hoi angbomh o moe, Jehosaphat tuk hanah angzoh o.
2Then there came some that told Jehoshaphat, saying, There cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea on this side Syria; and, behold, they be in Hazazon-tamar, which is En-gedi.
2Thoemto kaminawk Jehosaphat khaeah angzoh o moe, anih khaeah, Tuipui yaeh ih Syria prae thung hoiah nang tuk hanah paroeai misatuh kaminawk angzoh o; khenah, nihcae loe En-Gedi, tiah kawk ih Hazazon-tamar vangpui ah phak o boeh, tiah a naa o.
3And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the LORD , and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
3Jehosaphat loe zit moe, Angraeng khaeah lokdueng hanah poek; Judah prae boih ah buhzah hanah lok a paek.
4And Judah gathered themselves together, to ask help of the LORD : even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD .
4Judah kaminawk loe Angraeng khaeah abomhaih hnik hanah nawnto amkhueng o; Angraeng pakrong hanah, Judah prae vangpui kruek ih kaminawk to angzoh o.
5¶ And Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD , before the new court,
5Jehosaphat loe Angraeng im longhma kangtha, Judah hoi Jerusalem ih kaminawk salakah angdoet moe,
6And said, O LORD God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee?
6aw kaicae ampanawk ih Angraeng Sithaw, nang loe van ah kaom Sithaw na ai maw? Nang loe van praenawk boih ukkung ah na ai maw na oh; mi mah doeh pazawk thaih han ai ah, thacakhaih hoi lensawkhaih loe na ban ah na ai maw oh?
7Art not thou our God, who didst drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?
7Nang loe kaicae ih Sithaw ah na oh, nangmah ih kami Israelnawk hmaa ah, hae prae kaminawk hae na haek moe, nam pui Abraham ih caanawk khaeah dungzan khoek to na paek boeh na ai maw?
8And they dwelt therein, and have built thee a sanctuary therein for thy name, saying,
8Nihcae loe hae prae thungah oh o moe, Nang ih ahmin hanah hmuenciim to sak o pacoengah,
9If, when evil cometh upon us, as the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we stand before this house, and in thy presence, (for thy name is in this house,) and cry unto thee in our affliction, then thou wilt hear and help.
9kaicae nuiah sumsen maw, lokcaekhaih maw, to tih ai boeh loe kasae nathaih hoi khokhaahaih phak naah, to tih ai boeh loe patangkhanghaih ka tongh o naah, nang ih ahmin loe hae im thungah oh pongah, hae im thungah na hmaa ah kang doet o moe, nang kang kawk o naah, nang mah pathim ueloe, nang bomh tih.
10And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir, whom thou wouldest not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned from them, and destroyed them not;
10Toe vaihiah khenah, Israel caanawk Izip prae thung hoi tacawt o naah, nihcae to na naehsak ai; nihcae to tuh ai ah, amlaem o taak; Amon, Moab hoi Seir mae ah kaom kaminawk loe,
11Behold, I say, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit.
11kaicae han qawk ah nang paek ih prae thung hoiah kaicae hae ang haek o moe, lu pathok hanah angzoh o boeh.
12O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.
12Aw kaicae ih Sithaw, nihcae to lok na caek mak ai maw? Kaicae tuk han angzo paroeai pop misatuh kaminawk tuk thaihaih tha ka tawn o ai; timaw ka sak o han, ka panoek o ai boeh; kaicae loe nang khue ni kang khet o, tiah lawk a thuih.
13And all Judah stood before the LORD , with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
13Judah kaminawk loe caa nawktanawk, a zunawk hoi a caanawk boih hoiah Angraeng hmaa ah angdoet o.
14¶ Then upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, came the Spirit of the LORD in the midst of the congregation;
14To pacoengah minawk salakah kaom Jahaziel nuiah Angraeng ih Muithla to angzoh; anih loe Zekariah ih capa, anih loe Benaiah ih capa, anih loe Jeiel ih capa, anih loe Mattaniah capa, anih loe Levi acaeng, Asaph ih capa ah oh.
15And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the LORD unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.
15Anih mah, Siangpahrang Jehosaphat, Judah kaminawk hoi Jerusalem vangpui ah kaom kaminawk boih, tahngai oh; nangcae khaeah Angraeng mah hae tiah lokthuih; hae ih kapop parai misatuh kaminawk hae zii o hmah loe, thasae o sak hmah; misatukhaih loe nangcae ih tok na ai, Angraeng ih tok ni.
16To morrow go ye down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
16Khawnbangah nihcae tuk hanah caeh oh; khenah, nihcae loe Ziz vangpui caehhaih tahawt kathuk hoiah angzoh o tahang; nihcae to Jeruel praezaek pha ai naah kaom, tahawt boenghaih ahmuen ah na hnu o tih.
17Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still , and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out against them: for the LORD will be with you.
17Aw Judah hoi Jerusalem kaminawk, hae misa hae na tuk o han angai ai; nang doethaih ahmuen ah kacakah angdoe oh loe, Angraeng pahlonghaih to khen oh; zii o hmah loe, thasae o sak hmah; nihcae tongh hanah khawnbangah caeh oh; Angraeng loe nangcae hoi nawnto om tih, tiah a naa.
18And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD , worshipping the LORD .
18Jehosaphat loe long ah akuep; Judah hoi Jerusalem ih kaminawk boih, Angraeng hmaa ah akuep o moe, Angraeng to bok o.
19And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high.
19Levi acaeng Kohat kaminawk hoi Korhit kaminawk loe angdoet o moe, Israel Angraeng Sithaw to tha hoi saphaw o.
20¶ And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
20Khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk o moe, Tekoa praezaek ah caeh o; a caeh o li naah Jehosaphat mah angdoet moe, Judah hoi Jerusalem kaminawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh! Na Angraeng Sithaw to tang oh; to tiah nahaeloe kacakah na om o tih; anih ih tahmaanawk nuiah tanghaih tawn oh, to tiah nahaeloe na pazawk o tih, tiah a naa.
21And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD , and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD ; for his mercy endureth for ever.
21Kaminawk khaeah lokdueng pacoeng, Angraeng amlunghaih loe dungzan khoek to kacak amlunghaih ah oh pongah, Angraeng saphawhaih om nasoe, tiah thuih hanah, misatuh kaminawk hmaa ah caeh o; kranghoih Angraeng ciimcaihaih to saphaw o hanah, laasah kaminawk to Angraeng hanah a suek.
22¶ And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten.
22Nihcae mah saphawhaih laasak amtong o naah, Judah prae tuk hanah angzo, Amon kaminawk, Moab kaminawk hoi Sier mae nui ah kaom kaminawk to Angraeng mah a ngangsak moe, nihcae to tuk pazawk o boih.
23For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another.
23Amon hoi Moab kaminawk loe Seir mae nui ih kaminawk to hum moe, tamit boih hanah angthawk o; Seir mae nui ah kaom kaminawk to hum o moe, tamit o boih pacoengah, angmacae hoi angmacae to anghum o.
24And when Judah came toward the watch tower in the wilderness, they looked unto the multitude, and, behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none escaped.
24Judah kaminawk loe praezaek ih misatoephaih imsang to phak o moe, pop parai misatuh kaminawk to khet o naah, to ih kaminawk loe mi doeh loih o ai; long ah angsong kami qok cing ni a hnuk o.
25And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches with the dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away: and they were three days in gathering of the spoil, it was so much.
25To pongah Jehosaphat hoi angmah ih kaminawk loe, misanawk ih hmuenmae to lak hanah caeh o; kadueh kaminawk khae ih paroeai kapop hmuenmaenawk hoi atho kana thlungnawk to lak pae o; to ih hmuenmaenawk loe phaw thai ai khoek to pop; hmuenmae pop hmoek pongah ni thumto thung a lak o.
26¶ And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah; for there they blessed the LORD : therefore the name of the same place was called, The valley of Berachah, unto this day.
26Ni palito naah loe Berakah azawn ah amkhueng o moe, Angraeng to tahamhoihaih paek o; to pongah to ahmuen to vaihni ni khoek to Berakah azawn, tiah kawk o.
27Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for the LORD had made them to rejoice over their enemies.
27Angraeng mah nihcae ih misa nuiah anghoehaih paek pongah, Jehosaphat mah Judah hoi Jerusalem ih kaminawk to hoih boih moe, anghoehaih hoiah Jerusalem ah amlaem o.
28And they came to Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and trumpets unto the house of the LORD .
28Jerusalem ah katoeng congca, aqui kapop katoeng hoi mongkah uenghaih hoiah Angraeng im thungah caeh o.
29And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of those countries, when they had heard that the LORD fought against the enemies of Israel.
29Angraeng mah Israel caanawk ih misa to tuk pae ti, tiah ataeng ih prae kaminawk mah thaih o naah, nihcae boih nuiah Sithaw zithaih to oh.
30So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet: for his God gave him rest round about.
30Angmah ih Sithaw mah ataeng boih ah monghaih to paek pongah, Jehosaphat ih prae loe khosak nawmhaih hoiah koi.
31¶ And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: he was thirty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
31To tiah Jehosaphat loe Judah siangpahrang ah oh; Judah siangpahrang ah oh naah saning quithum, pangato oh moe, Jerusalem to saning pumphae pangato thung uk; amno ih ahmin loe Shilhi canu Azubah.
32And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and departed not from it, doing that which was right in the sight of the LORD .
32Anih loe ampa Asa caehhaih loklam ah caeh, loklam amkhraeng taak ai; Angraeng mikhnukah katoeng hmuen to sak.
33Howbeit the high places were not taken away: for as yet the people had not prepared their hearts unto the God of their fathers.
33Toe hmuensangnawk to va boih ai; kaminawk loe angmacae ampanawk ih Sithaw nuiah palungthin suem o ai toengtoeng vop.
34Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Jehu the son of Hanani, who is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel.
34Siangpahrang Jehosaphat mah amtonghaih hoi boeng khoek to sak ih hmuennawk loe, Hanani capa Jehu ih cabu pongah tarik o; to hmuennawk loe Israel siangpahrangnawk ih cabu pongah tarik o.
35¶ And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly:
35Hnukkhuem ah Judah siangpahrang Jehosaphat loe, kasae hmuen sak koeh Israel siangpahrang Ahaziah hoiah angkom.
36And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish: and they made the ships in Ezion-geber.
36Anih loe Tarshish vangpui ah kacaeh palongpui to sak hanah Israel siangpahrang hoiah angkom; nihnik loe Ezion-Gezer ah palongpui to a sak hoi.
37Then Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, the LORD hath broken thy works. And the ships were broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
37Mareshah ih kami Dodavah capa Eliezer mah, Jehosaphat koeh aihaih lok to thuih; Ahaziah hoiah nang kom pongah, Angraeng mah na sak ih hmuen to phrae tih, tiah a naa. Palongpuinawk loe amro moe, Tarshish vangpui ah doeh caeh hoi thai ai.
