2 Chronicles 17

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 Then Jehoshaphat, his son, reigned in his place. And he grew strong against Israel.	1 Regnavit autem Iosaphat filius eius pro eo et invaluit contra Israel.
2 And he appointed numbers of soldiers in all the cities of Judah that had been fortified with walls. And he placed garrisons in the land of Judah, and in the cities of Ephraim that his father Asa had seized.	2 Constituitque militum numeros in cunctis urbibus Iudae, quae erant vallatae muris; praesidiaque disposuit in terra Iudae et in civitatibus Ephraim, quas ceperat Asa pater eius.
3 And the Lord was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father, David. And he did not trust in the Baals,	3 Et fuit Dominus cum Iosaphat, quia ambulavit in viis patris sui primis et non speravit in Baalim
4 but in the God of his father. And he advanced in his precepts, and not according to the sins of Israel.	4 sed in Deo patris sui et perrexit in praeceptis illius et non iuxta peccata Israel.
5 And the Lord confirmed the kingdom in his hand. And all of Judah gave gifts to Jehoshaphat. And innumerable riches were brought to him, and much glory.	5 Confirmavitque Dominus regnum in manu eius, et dedit omnis Iuda munera Iosaphat; factaeque sunt ei infinitae divitiae et multa gloria.
6 And when his heart had taken courage because of the ways of the Lord, he now also took away the high places and the sacred groves from Judah.	6 Cumque sumpsisset cor eius audaciam propter vias Domini, etiam excelsa et palos de Iuda abstulit.
7 Then, in the third year of his reign, he sent Benhail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethanel, and Micaiah, from among his leaders, so that they might teach in the cites of Judah.	7 Tertio autem anno regni sui misit principes suos Benhail et Abdiam et Zachariam et Nathanael et Michaiam, ut docerent in civitatibus Iudae,
8 And with them were the Levites Shemaiah and Nethaniah and Zebadiah, and also Asahel and Shemiramoth and Jehonathan, and the Levites Adonijah and Tobijah and Tobadonijah. And with them were the priests Elishama and Jehoram.	8 et cum eis Levitas Semeiam et Nathaniam et Zabadiam, Asael quoque et Semiramoth et Ionathan Adoniamque et Thobiam Levitas et cum eis Elisama et Ioram sacerdotes.
9 And they were teaching the people in Judah, having with them the book of the law of the Lord. And they were traveling through all the cities of Judah, and were instructing the people.	9 Docebantque in Iuda habentes librum legis Domini et circuibant cunctas urbes Iudae atque erudiebant populum.
10 And so, the fear of the Lord fell upon all the kingdoms of the lands which were around Judah. And they did not dare to make war against Jehoshaphat.	10 Itaque factus est pavor Domini super omnia regna terrarum, quae erant per gyrum Iudae, nec audebant bellare contra Iosaphat.
11 Moreover, the Philistines carried gifts to Jehoshaphat, and a tribute in silver. Also, the Arabians brought cattle: seven thousand seven hundred rams, and the same number of he-goats.	11 Sed et de Philisthim Iosaphat munera deferebant et vectigal argenti; Arabes quoque adducebant pecora arietum septem milia septingenta et hircos totidem.
12 Therefore, Jehoshaphat increased and was magnified, even on high. And in Judah, he built houses in the likeness of towers, and walled cities.	12 Crevit ergo Iosaphat et magnificatus est usque in sublime atque aedificavit in Iuda castella urbesque horreorum.
13 And he prepared many works in the cities of Judah. Also, there were men experienced in warfare in Jerusalem,	13 Et multae copiae praesto erant ei in urbibus Iudae; viri quoque bellatores et robusti erant in Ierusalem,
14 and this is the number of them, by each of the houses and families. In Judah, the leader of the army was Adnah, the commander; and with him were three hundred thousand very experienced men.	14 quorum iste numerus per familias singulorum: in Iuda principes exercitus, Ednas dux, et cum eo robustissimorum trecenta milia;
15 After him, Jehohanan was the leader; and with him were two hundred eighty thousand.	15 et ad latus eius Iohanan princeps et cum eo ducenta octoginta milia;
16 Also after him, there was Amasiah, the son of Zichri, who was consecrated to the Lord; and with him were two hundred thousand strong men.	16 ad latus quoque istius Amasias filius Zechri consecratus Domino et cum eo ducenta milia virorum fortium;
17 Following him, there was Eliada, who was experienced in battle; and with him were two hundred thousand, holding bow and shield.	17 de Beniamin autem robustus ad proelia Eliada et cum eo tenentium arcum et clipeum ducenta milia;
18 Then too, after him, there was Jehozabad; and with him were one hundred eighty thousand lightly-armed solders.	18 et ad latus eius Iozabad et cum eo centum octoginta milia expeditorum militum.
19 All these were at the hand of the king, aside from the others, whom he had positioned in the walled cities, in all of Judah.	19 Hi omnes erant ad manum regis, exceptis aliis, quos posuerat in urbibus muratis in universo Iuda.
