Secondo libro delle Cronache 19

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Reversus est autem Iosaphat rex Iudae in domum suam pacifice in Ierusalem.	1 And Josaphat king of Juda returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem.
2 Cui occurrit Iehu filius Hanani videns et ait ad eum: “ Impio praebes auxilium et his, qui oderunt Dominum, amicitia iungeris, et idcirco iram quidem Domini merebaris;	2 And 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:
3 sed bona opera inventa sunt in te, eo quod abstuleris palos de terra et praeparaveris cor tuum, ut requireres Deum ”.	3 But 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.
4 Habitavit ergo Iosaphat in Ierusalem. Rursumque egressus est ad populum de Bersabee usque ad montem Ephraim et revocavit eos ad Dominum, Deum patrum suorum.	4 And 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.
5 Constituitque iudices terrae in cunctis civitatibus Iudae munitis per singula loca.	5 And he set judges of the land in all the fenced cities of Juda, in every place.
6 Et praecipiens iudicibus: “ Videte, ait, quid faciatis. Non enim homini exercetis iudicium sed Domino, qui vobiscum est, quando iudicaveritis.	6 And 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.
7 Sit timor Domini, vobiscum et caute cuncta facite; non est enim apud Dominum Deum nostrum iniquitas nec personarum acceptio nec cupido munerum ”.	7 Let 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.
8 In Ierusalem quoque constituit Iosaphat ex Levitis et sacerdotibus et principibus familiarum Israel pro iudicio Domini et pro causis habitatorum Ierusalem.	8 In 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.
9 Praecepitque eis dicens: “ Sic agetis in timore Domini fideliter et corde perfecto.	9 And he charged them, saying: Thus shall you do in the fear of the Lord faithfully, and with a perfect heart.
10 Omnem causam, quae venerit ad vos fratrum vestrorum, qui habitant in urbibus suis, ubicumque quaestio est de homicidio, de lege, de mandato, de praeceptis et de iustificationibus, commonete eos, ut non peccent in Dominum, et ne veniat ira super vos et super fratres vestros; sic ergo agetis et non peccabitis.	10 Every 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.
11 Amarias autem sacerdos princeps super vos in omnibus, quae ad Deum pertinent, praesidebit; porro Zabadias filius Ismael, qui est dux in domo Iudae, super ea opera erit, quae ad regis officium pertinent; habetisque Levitas coram vobis ut scribas. Confortamini et agite diligenter, et sit Dominus cum bonis ”.	11 And 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.
