2 Dungkrhoekhaih 25
1 Amaziah siangpahrang ah oh naah, saning pumphae pangato oh boeh; anih mah Jerusalem to saning pumphae takawtto thung uk; anih ih amno loe Jerusalem kami Jehoaddan.
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem.
2 Anih loe Angraeng mikhnukah katoeng hmuen to sak; toe palungthin boih hoiah sah ai.
And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not wholeheartedly.
3 A ban thungah prae to caksak pacoengah, ampa kahum a tamnanawk to anih mah hum pathok let.
As soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, Amaziah executed the servants who had murdered his father the king.
4 Toe nihcae ih capanawk loe hum pae ai; a caanawk pongah ampanawk duek han om ai, ampanawk pongah doeh a caanawk duek han om ai; kami boih angmah zaehaih pongah ni duek han oh, tiah Angraeng mah thuih ih lok hoi Mosi lokpaekhaih thungah tarik ih lok baktih toengah a sak.
Yet he did not put their sons to death, but acted according to what is written in the Law, in the Book of Moses, where the LORD commanded: “Fathers must not be put to death for their children, and children must not be put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.”
5 Amaziah mah Judah kaminawk boih to kawk moe, Judah hoi Benjamin acaengnawk khaeah, acaeng maeto thungah, kami sangto ukkung, cumvaito ukkung, tiah a suek; tayae hoi aphaw sin thaih, saning pumphaeto ranui bang kaom kaminawk boih to a kok naah, kami sang cumvai thumto a hnuk.
Then Amaziah gathered the people of Judah and assigned them according to their families to commanders of thousands and of hundreds. And he numbered those twenty years of age or older throughout Judah and Benjamin and found 300,000 chosen men able to serve in the army, bearing the spear and shield.
6 Anih mah sumkanglung talent cumvaito hoiah Israel misatuh kami sang cumvaito thlai bae vop.
He also hired 100,000 mighty warriors from Israel for a hundred talents of silver.
7 Toe Sithaw ih kami maeto anih khaeah angzoh moe, Aw siangpahrang, Israel misatuh kaminawk loe misatuk hanah nang hoi nawnto caeh o mak ai; Angraeng loe Israelnawk khaeah om ai; Ephraim kaminawk khaeah doeh om ai.
But a man of God came to him and said, “O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel—not with any of the Ephraimites.
8 Toe na caeh koeh nahaeloe, caeh ah; misatuk hanah tha na cak aep to mah, Angraeng mah nang to misanawk hmaa ah amtimsak tih. Sithaw loe abom thaihaih hoi amtimsak thaihaih to tawnh.
Even if you go and fight bravely in battle, God will make you stumble before the enemy, for God has power to help and power to overthrow.”
9 Amaziah mah Sithaw kami khaeah lokdueng, to tiah nahaeloe Israel misatuh kaminawk thlaihaih atho ka paek ih sumkanglung talent cumvaito loe kawbangmaw ka sak han loe? tiah a naa. Sithaw kami mah, Angraeng loe hae pong kapop hmuen nang hanah ang paek thaih, tiah a naa.
Amaziah asked the man of God, “What should I do about the hundred talents I have given to the army of Israel?” And the man of God replied, “The LORD is able to give you much more than this.”
10 To pacoengah Amaziah mah Ephraim prae hoiah angzo misatuh kaminawk to tapraek moe, angmacae im ah amlaemsak let; to pongah nihcae loe Judah nuiah paroeai plungphui o, palungphui hoiah im ah amlaem o.
So Amaziah dismissed the troops who had come to him from Ephraim and sent them home. And they were furious with Judah and returned home in great anger.
11 Amaziah loe angmah hoi angmah to thacaksak moe, angmah ih kaminawk to paloi azawn ah a caeh haih; to ahmuen ah Seir kami sang hato a hum.
Amaziah, however, summoned his strength and led his troops to the Valley of Salt, where he struck down 10,000 men of Seir,
12 Kalah kami sang hato loe Judah misatuh kaminawk mah kahing ah naeh o; nihcae to thlung amngoe thungah vah o, nihcae ih takpum loe angkhaeh boih.
and the army of Judah also captured 10,000 men alive. They took them to the top of a cliff and threw them down so that all were dashed to pieces.
13 Toe Amaziah hoi nawnto misatukhaih ahmuen ah kacaeh ai, anih mah amlaemsak let ih misatuh kaminawk loe, Samaria hoi Beth-Horon khoek to Judah vangpuinawk to tuk o moe, kami sang thumto hum o pacoengah, kapop parai hmuenmaenawk to a lomh pae o.
Meanwhile the troops that Amaziah had dismissed from battle raided the cities of Judah, from Samaria to Beth-horon. They struck down 3,000 people and carried off a great deal of plunder.
14 Edom kaminawk humhaih hoi amlaem let pacoengah, Amaziah mah, Seir kaminawk ih sithawnawk to sinh moe, angmah ih sithaw ah a suek; a hmaa ah akuep moe, bok pacoengah, hmuihoihnawk to a thlaek.
When Amaziah returned from the slaughter of the Edomites, he brought back the gods of the Seirites, set them up as his own gods, bowed before them, and burned sacrifices to them.
15 To naah Angraeng palungphuihaih to Amaziah nuiah phak; anih khaeah tahmaa maeto patoeh, anih mah, Angmah ih kaminawk mataeng doeh misa ban thung hoiah na pahlong thai ai to mah, tikhoe prae kalah kaminawk ih sithaw to na pakrong loe? tiah a naa.
Therefore the anger of the LORD burned against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet, who said, “Why have you sought this people’s gods, which could not deliver them from your hand?”
16 Anih khaeah lokthuih li naah, siangpahrang mah anih hanah, Nang loe siangpahrang poekhaih paekkung ah maw na oh? Om duem ah! Tikhoe danpaekhaih na koeh loe? tiah a naa. To pongah tahmaa loe oh duem, ka thuih ih lok na tahngai ai moe, hae baktih hmuen na sak pongah, Sithaw mah nang paro hanah khokhan boeh, tiah ka panoek, tiah a naa.
While he was still speaking, the king asked, “Have we made you the counselor to the king? Stop! Why be struck down?” So the prophet stopped, but he said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not heeded my advice.”
17 Amaziah mah angmah han poekhaih paek kaminawk lokdueng pacoengah, Israel siangpahrang Jehu capa Jehoahaz, anih ih capa Joash khaeah, Angzo ah, mikhmai kangtong ah angqum hoi si, tiah kami patoeh moe, lok a pat.
Then Amaziah king of Judah took counsel and sent word to the king of Israel Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu. “Come, let us meet face to face,” he said.
18 Toe Israel siangpahrang Joash mah Judah siangpahrang Amaziah khaeah, Lebanon ih soekhringkung mah Lebanon ih hmaica thing khaeah, Na canu to ka capa han zu ah paek ah, tiah a naa; to naah Lebanon ih hmawsaeng moi maeto angzoh moe, soekhringkung to khok hoiah cawh.
But Jehoash king of Israel replied to Amaziah king of Judah: “A thistle in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in marriage.’ Then a wild beast in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle.
19 Nang loe khenah, Edom to ka pazawk boeh, tiah poekhaih na tawnh, na poekhaih palungthin to amoek; nangmah im ah om duem ah! Tipongah nam timh moe, nangmah hoi Judah kaminawk nawnto amro hanah na pakrong loe? tiah a naa.
You have said, ‘Look, I have defeated Edom,’ and your heart has become proud and boastful. Now stay at home. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”
20 Toe Amaziah mah tahngai pae ai; nihcae loe Edom sithawnawk khaeah lokdueng o pongah, a misanawk ban ah paek hanah, Sithaw mah to tiah ohsak.
But Amaziah would not listen, for this had come from God in order to deliver them into the hand of Jehoash, because they had sought the gods of Edom.
21 Topongah Israel siangpahrang Joash loe anih tuk hanah caeh; siangpahrang hnik loe Judah prae Beth-Shemesh ah angtongh hoi.
So Jehoash king of Israel advanced, and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced each other at Beth-shemesh in Judah.
22 Israelnawk mah Judahanwk to pazawk, to naah Judah kaminawk loe angmacae im ah cawnh o boih.
And Judah was routed before Israel, and every man fled to his own home.
23 Israel siangpahrang Joash mah, Jehoahaz capa Joash, anih ih capa Judah siangpahrang, Amaziah to Beth-Shemesh ah naeh moe, Jerusalem ah hoih; Jerusalem sipae to Ephraim khongkha hoi kamtong im takii khongkha khoek to phraek pae king; to ahmuen loe dong cumvai palito oh.
There at Beth-shemesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz. Then Jehoash brought him to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits.
24 Obed-Edom ih adung hoiah pakuem ih sui hoi phoisanawk, Sithaw ih im thungah kaom laom sabaebawk boih, siangpahrang imthung ih hmuennawk pacoengah, kaminawk doeh naeh moe, Samaria ah amlaem o.
He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of God with Obed-edom and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as some hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
25 Judah siangpahrang Joash capa Amaziah loe, Israel siangpahrang Jehoahaz capa Joash duek pacoengah, saning hatlaipangato hing vop.
Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived for fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel.
26 Amtonghaih hoi boeng khoek to Amaziah ih toksakhaih kawngnawk loe Judah hoi Israel siangpahrangnawk ih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
As for the rest of the acts of Amaziah, from beginning to end, are they not written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel?
27 Amaziah loe Angraeng hnuk pazuihaih thung hoiah amkhraeng ving pacoengah, anih to Jerusalem ah hum hanah pacaeng o, toe anih loe Lakhish ah cawnh ving; Lakhish ah kami patoeh o moe, to ah anih to hum o.
From the time that Amaziah turned from following the LORD, a conspiracy was formed against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But men were sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there.
28 Anih to hrang hoiah phawh o moe, Judah vangpui ah ampanawk khaeah aphum o.
They carried him back on horses and buried him with his fathers in the City of Judah.
