2 Dungkrhoekhaih 29

1 Hezekiah siangpahrang ah oh amtong tangsuek naah saning pumphae pangato oh boeh; anih mah Jerusalem to saning pumphae takawtto thung uk; amno loe Zekariah canu Abijah.

HEZEKIAH began to reign when he was five and twenty years old, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.

2 Ampa David mah sak ih baktih toengah, anih doeh Angraeng mikhnukah katoeng hmuennawk boih to sak.

And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that David his father had done.

3 Siangpahrang ah ohhaih saningto haih, khrah tangsuek naah, anih mah Angraeng ih im khongkhanawk to paongh moe, pathoep.

He in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.

4 Qaima hoi Levi acaengnawk to a caeh haih moe, ni angyae bang ih loklam ah amkhuengsak.

And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them together into the east street,

5 Nihcae khaeah, Levi acaengnawk ka lok hae tahngai oh, ciimcai oh loe, nam panawk ih Angraeng Sithaw ih im to ciim o sak ah; hmuenciim thung ih panuet thok hmuennawk boih to takhoe oh.

And said unto them, Hear me, ye Levites, sanctify now yourselves, and sanctify the house of the Lord God of your fathers, and carry forth the filthiness out of the holy place.

6 Aicae ampanawk loe Sithaw hmaa ah zae o boeh; aicae Angraeng Sithaw mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak o moe, Angraeng to pahnawt o ving boeh; Angraeng ohhaih ahmuen to anghae o taak moe, hnuk angqoi o taak ving boeh.

For our fathers have trespassed, and done that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their faces from the habitation of the Lord, and turned their backs.

7 Imthung akunhaih thoknawk to khah o moe, hmaiim to kalah bangah suek o ving boeh; nihcae loe Israel Sithaw khaeah hmuihoih thlaek o ai moe, angbawnhaih doeh hmuenciim ah sah o ai boeh.

Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense nor offered burnt offerings in the holy place unto the God of Israel.

8 To pongah Angraeng palungphuihaih to Judah hoi Israel nuiah phak; na mik hoi na hnuk o ih baktih toengah, nihcae to raihaih paek moe, dawnraihaih hoi minawk mah pahnui thui ih kami ah oh hanah a suek.

Wherefore the wrath of the Lord was upon Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them to trouble, to astonishment, and to hissing, as ye see with your eyes.

9 To tiah oh o pongah khenah, aicae ampanawk loe sumsen hoiah duek o moe, aicae ih canu, capa hoi zunawk to misong ah caeh o haih.

For, lo, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.

10 Aicae nuiah palungphuihaih dipsak hanah, vaihi Israel Angraeng Sithaw hoi lokmaihaih sak hanah ka poek.

Now it is in mine heart to make a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that his fierce wrath may turn away from us.

11 Ka capanawk, Angraeng hmaa ah angdoet han ih, a tok sak pae han ih, hmuihoih thlaek han ih, Anih mah ang qoih o pongah, vaihi tidoeh sah ai ah om o hmah, tiah a naa.

My sons, be not now negligent: for the Lord hath chosen you to stand before him, to serve him, and that ye should minister unto him, and burn incense.

12 To naah to ih Levi acaengnawk, Kohat acaeng thung hoiah Amasai capa Mahat, Azariah capa Joel; Merari acaeng thung hoiah Abdi capa Kish, Jehalelel capa Azariah; Gershon acaeng thung hoiah Zimmah capa Joah, Joah capa Eden;

Then the Levites arose, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites: and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehalelel: and of the Gershonites; Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah:

13 Elizaphan acaeng thung hoiah Shimri hoi Jeiel; Asaph acaeng thung hoiah Zekariah hoi Mattaniah;

And of the sons of Elizaphan; Shimri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zechariah, and Mattaniah:

14 Heman acaeng thung hoiah Jeiel hoi Shimei; Jeduthun acaeng thung hoiah Shemaiah hoi Uzziel cae toksak hanah angthawk o.

And of the sons of Heman; Jehiel, and Shimei: and of the sons of Jeduthun; Shemaiah, and Uzziel.

15 Angmacae nawkamyanawk nawnto amkhueng o pacoengah, Angraeng ih im to ciimsak hanah, Angraeng ih lokpaekhaih hoi siangpahrang mah thuih ih loknawk baktih toengah, angmacae hoi angmacae to ciimcai o sak.

And they gathered their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and came, according to the commandment of the king, by the words of the Lord, to cleanse the house of the Lord.

16 Qaimanawk loe Angraeng ih hmuen ciimsak hanah, imthung bangah akun o; Angraeng im thungah hnuk o ih kaciim ai hmuennawk to Angraeng im longhmaa ah suek o boih. To hmuennawk to Levi acaengnawk mah lak o moe, Kidron tava ah suek o.

And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the Lord, to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of the Lord into the court of the house of the Lord. And the Levites took it, to carry it out abroad into the brook Kidron.

17 Khrah hmaloe amtong tangsuekhaih niah ciimcaihaih to amtong o moe, ni tazetto naah Angraeng im hmaa ah phak o; ni tazetto thung Angraeng im to ciimcai o sak; krah hmaloe koek ni hatlai tarukto naah pacoeng o.

Now they began on the first day of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came they to the porch of the Lord: so they sanctified the house of the Lord in eight days; and in the sixteenth day of the first month they made an end.

18 To pacoengah Hezekiah siangpahrang khaeah caeh o moe, anih khaeah, Angraeng im, angbawnhaih hmaicam hoi laom sabaenawk boih, takaw suekhaih caboinawk hoi laom sabaenawk to ciimcai o sak boih.

Then they went in to Hezekiah the king, and said, We have cleansed all the house of the Lord, and the altar of burnt offering, with all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread table, with all the vessels thereof.

19 Ahaz siangpahrang ah oh naah, zaehaih sak pongah vah ving ih laom sabaenawk boih to pakhraih o moe, ka ciim o sak boeh; khenah, to baktih hmuennawk boih Angraeng ih hmaicam hmaa ah oh, tiah a naa.

Moreover all the vessels, which king Ahaz in his reign did cast away in his transgression, have we prepared and sanctified, and, behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.

20 Hezekiah siangpahrang loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk, vangpui ukkung angraengnawk boih to nawnto amkhuengsak pacoengah, Angraeng im ah caeh o tahang.

Then Hezekiah the king rose early, and gathered the rulers of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.

21 Maitaw tae sarihto, tuutae sarihto, tuucaa sarihto hoi maeh tae sarihto siangpahrang ih prae zaehaih, hmuenciim zaehaih hoi Judahnawk zae angbawnhaih ah paek hanah a sinh o. Aaron ih caanawk hoi qaimanawk mah Angraeng ih hmaicam ah angbawnhaih sak hanah siangpahrang mah lokpaek.

And they brought seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And he commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer them on the altar of the Lord.

22 To pongah maitaw taenawk to boh o, qaimanawk mah athii to lak o moe, hmaicam ah haeh o; tuu taenawk boh o naah doeh, athii to hmaicam ah haeh o; tuucaanawk doeh boh o moe, athii to hmaicam ah haeh o.

So they killed the bullocks, and the priests received the blood, and sprinkled it on the altar: likewise, when they had killed the rams, they sprinkled the blood upon the altar: they killed also the lambs, and they sprinkled the blood upon the altar.

23 Zae angbawnhaih ah maeh taenawk to siangpahrang hoi kaminawk hmaa ah hoih o moe, lu nuiah ban koeng o;

And they brought forth the he goats for the sin offering before the king and the congregation; and they laid their hands upon them:

24 siangpahrang mah Israelnawk boih hanah, hmai angbawnhaih hoi zae angbawnhaih sak hanah siangpahrang mah paek ih lok baktih toengah, qaimanawk mah maeh taenawk to boh o moe, Israel kaminawk boih zae loih hanah, athii hoiah hmaicam nuiah angdaehhaih to sak o.

And the priests killed them, and they made reconciliation with their blood upon the altar, to make an atonement for all Israel: for the king commanded that the burnt offering and the sin offering should be made for all Israel.

25 David hoi siangpahrang ih tahmaa Gad hoi tahmaa Nathan cae mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, cingceng, tamoi hoi katoengnawk kruek kop Levi acaengnawk to im thungah ohsak; tahmaanawk khaeah Angraeng mah paek ih lok baktih toengah hae hmuen hae a sak.

And he set the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, and of Gad the king’s seer, and Nathan the prophet: for so was the commandment of the Lord by his prophets.

26 Levi acaengnawk loe David ih atuenpawknawk hoiah angdoet o, qaimanawk doeh mongkahnawk hoiah angdoet o toeng.

And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.

27 Hezekiah mah hmaicam ah hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah lokpaek; hmai angbawnhaih sak amtong o naah, mongkah hoi Israel siangpahrang David mah sak ih atuenpawknawk hoiah Angraeng khaeah laasak amtong o.

And Hezekiah commanded to offer the burnt offering upon the altar. And when the burnt offering began, the song of the Lord began also with the trumpets, and with the instruments ordained by David king of Israel.

28 Hmai angbawnhaih boeng ai karoek to, laasah kaminawk mah laa to sak o moe, mongkah ueng kaminawk mah doeh mongkah to ueng o; to tiah kaminawk boih mah Sithaw to bok o.

And all the congregation worshipped, and the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded: and all this continued until the burnt offering was finished.

29 Hmuen tathlanghaih boeng pacoengah, siangpahrang hoi to ih kaminawk boih mah akuep hoiah Sithaw to bok o.

And when they had made an end of offering, the king and all that were present with him bowed themselves, and worshipped.

30 Hezekiah siangpahrang hoi angraengnawk loe David hoi tahmaa Asaph ih loknawk baktih toengah Angraeng saphawhaih laasak hanah Levi acaengnawk to lokpaek. To pongah nihcae mah anghoehaih hoi saphawhaih laa to sak o moe, akuephaih hoiah Sithaw to bok o.

Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praise unto the Lord with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped.

31 To naah Hezekiah mah, Vaihiah nangmacae hoi nangmacae Angraeng khaeah nang paek o boeh pongah, Angraeng im ah angzo oh loe, angbawnhaih hoiah paek ih hmuen, anghoehaih hoiah paek ih hmuennawk to sin oh, tiah a naa. To pongah rangpuinawk mah angbawnhaih hmuennawk, anghoehaih hoiah paek ih hmuennawk, palunghuemhaih hoiah paek ih hmuennawk to sin o.

Then Hezekiah answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves unto the Lord, come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought in sacrifices and thank offerings; and as many as were of a free heart burnt offerings.

32 Rangpui mah angbawnhaih ah sin o ih hmuennawk loe maitaw tae quisarihto, tuu tae cumvaito hoi tuucaa cumvai hnetto phak; Angraeng khaeah angbawnhaih sak han ih ni hae hmuennawk boih hae a sinh o.

And the number of the burnt offerings, which the congregation brought, was threescore and ten bullocks, an hundred rams, and two hundred lambs: all these were for a burnt offering to the Lord.

33 Angbawnhaih ah paek ih hmuennawk loe maitaw tae cumvai tarukto, tuu sang thumto phak.

And the consecrated things were six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.

34 Toe qaimanawk loe tamsi o pongah, angbawnhaih moi ahin to khok o boih thai ai; kalah qaimanawk loe ciimcai ah oh o, toksak boeng o ai karoek to, angmacae nawkamya Levi acaengnawk mah nihcae to abomh o. Levi acaengnawk loe qaimanawk pongah poekhaih palungthin ciim o kue.

But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the other priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.

35 Hmai angbawnhaih, angdaeh angbawnhaih moithawk, angbawnhaih hmuen hoi nawnto paek ih hmuen loe paroeai pop. Angraeng im thungah toksakhaih to kahoih ah raemh o.

And also the burnt offerings were in abundance, with the fat of the peace offerings, and the drink offerings for every burnt offering. So the service of the house of the Lord was set in order.

36 Sithaw mah to baktih hmuen to karangah sak pacoeng hanah abomh pongah, Hezekiah hoi angmah ih kaminawk boih anghoe o.

And Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people, that God had prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
