3 Yoshaafaax daandiiwwan abbaan isaa Daawit isa dura irra deemaa ture irra waan deemeef,+ akkasumas Baʼaaliin waan hin barbaaddanneef, Yihowaan isaa wajjin ni taʼe. 4 Inni barsiifatawwan Israaʼel hin hordofne;+ kanaa mannaa, Waaqa abbaa isaa ni barbaaddate;+ ajajawwan isaas ni hordofe.*

3 Haa taʼu malee, ati utubaawwan waaqeffannaa* biyyattii keessaa haxooftee waan balleessiteef, akkasumas Waaqa dhugaa barbaaddachuuf garaa kee waan qopheessiteef*+ wantoonni gaariin si keessatti argamaniiru.”+

4 Yoshaafaax Yerusaalem keessa jiraachuu isaa itti fufe; namoonni Ber Sheebaadhaa hamma naannoo gaarotaa Efreem+ keessatti argaman gara Yihowaa isa Waaqa abbootii isaanii taʼetti akka deebiʼan gochuuf ammas ni baʼe.+
