2 Siangpahrang 17
1 Judah siangpahrang Ahaz saning hatlaihnetto haih naah, Elah capa Hoshea loe Samaria vangpui ah Israel siangpahrang ah oh, anih mah saning takawtto thung uk.
In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel nine years.
2 Anih loe Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to sak; hmaloe ih kaom Israel siangpahrangnawk baktiah hmuen to sah ai.
And he did [that which was] evil in the sight of the LORD, but not as the kings of Israel that were before him.
3 Assyria siangpahrang Shalmaneser mah, Hoshea to tuk moe, tamna ah suek pacoengah, tamut to paeksak.
Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and gave him presents.
4 Hoshea loe saning kruek paek han koi tamut to paek ai, anih mah Izip siangpahrang So khaeah laicaeh patoeh moe, misatuk han pacaeng ti, tiah Assyria siangpahrang mah panoek naah, anih to naeh moe, thongim thungah pakhrak.
And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of Assyria, as [he had done] year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.
5 Assyria siangpahrang loe prae boih tuk hanah angzoh tahang; Samaria vangpui ah caeh moe, vangpui to saning thumto thung takui.
Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
6 Hoshea siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning takawtto naah, Assyria siangpahrang mah Samaria to lak moe, Israel kaminawk to Assyria ah caeh haih; nihcae to Gozan vapui taeng, Medes kaminawk ih vangpui Halah hoi Habor ah ohsak.
In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor [by] the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7 Israel kaminawk loe Izip prae hoi Izip siangpahrang Faro ban thung hoiah zaehoikung, angmacae Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah zaehaih to sak o moe, kalah sithawnawk to bok o taak,
For [so] it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
8 Israel caanawk hoi angmacae mah suek o ih, Israel siangpahrangnawk hmaa ah, Angraeng mah haek ih sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah sak o ih atawk to pazui o.
And walked in the statutes of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.
9 Israel kaminawk loe angmacae Angraeng Sithaw mah koeh ai ih hmuen to tamquta hoiah sak o; misatoephaih imsang hoi vangpui sipaenawk to a sak o moe, avangnawk boih ah hmuensang to a sak o.
And the children of Israel did secretly [those] things that [were] not right against the LORD their God, and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
10 Krang hoi Asherah krang soi ih thingnawk to maesom nui hoi thingkung tlim boi ah a suek o.
And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree:
11 Nihcae hmaa ah Angraeng Sithaw mah haek ih, Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah sak ih hmuen baktih toengah, hmuensang boih ah hmuihoih to thlaek o moe, Angraeng palungphuisak hanah, kahoih ai hmuen to a sak o.
And there they burnt incense in all the high places, as [did] the heathen whom the LORD carried away before them; and wrought wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger:
12 Angraeng mah, Hae hmuennawk hae sah o hmah, tiah thuih pae; toe krang to a bok o toengtoeng vop.
For they served idols, whereof the LORD had said unto them, Ye shall not do this thing.
13 Angraeng Sithaw mah, Kahoih ai loklam to caeh o taak ah loe, nam panawk khaeah ka thuih ih dannawk boih, tahmanawk rang hoiah thuih ih ka lokpaekhaih hoi ka thuitaekhaih loknawk to pazui oh, tiah ka tamna tahmanawk patohhaih rang hoiah Israel hoi Judah kaminawk khaeah ka thuih.
Yet the LORD testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, [and by] all the seers, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep my commandments [and] my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.
14 Toe nihcae mah tahngai o ai; angmacae Angraeng Sithaw katang ai, ampanawk baktiah palungthin amtak o sak.
Notwithstanding they would not hear, but hardened their necks, like to the neck of their fathers, that did not believe in the LORD their God.
15 Ampanawk khaeah sak ih lokmaihaih hoi patuk ih lok to nihcae mah pahnawt o, Anih mah thuih pae ih a thuitaekhaih loknawk doeh nihcae mah tahngai pae o ai; nihcae loe avang ai krangnawk hnuk ah bang o pongah, tidoeh avang ai ah oh o; Angraeng mah nihcae taeng kaom Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah sak ih hmuen baktiah sah o hmah, tiah a naa; toe nihcae hnukah patom o.
And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that [were] round about them, [concerning] whom the LORD had charged them, that they should not do like them.
16 Angmacae Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih loknawk to pahnawt o, angmacae hanah maitaw caa krang hnetto a sak o moe, Asherah thing maeto a tling o; cakaehnawk boih to bok o moe, Baal ih tok to sak pae o.
And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, [even] two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
17 A canu hoi a capanawk to hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah patoh o moe, taqawk thacakhaih hoi angzo han koi hmuen taphonghaih, adoi hoi sak ih hmuennawk to patoh o, Angraeng palungphuisak hanah, Angraeng mikhnukah angmacae hoi angmacae to kahoih ai hmuen sak hanah ang zawh o.
And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.
18 To pongah Angraeng loe Israel nuiah paroeai palungphui moe, nihcae to angmah hmaa hoiah takhoe king; Judah acaeng khue to a suek.
Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
19 Judah kaminawk loe angmacae Angraeng Sithaw mah paek ih lok to pazui o ai; Israel kaminawk caehhaih loklam to pazui o lat.
Also Judah kept not the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
20 To pongah Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk boih to pahnawt moe, nihcae to patangkhangsak; a hmaa hoiah takhoe boih ai karoek to, nihcae to parokungnawk ban ah a paek.
And the LORD rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.
21 Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk to David imthung takoh thung hoiah tapraek pongah, nihcae mah Nebat capa Jeroboam to siangpahrang ah suek o; Jeroboam mah Angraeng hnukah kabang Israel kaminawk to loklam amkhraengsak, anih mah to baktih kalen parai zaehaih to saksak.
For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drave Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.
22 Israel kaminawk loe Jeroboam mah sak ih zaehaih to caeh o taak ai, pazui o toengtoeng vop.
For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;
23 Angraeng mah a tamna tahmaanawk patohhaih rang hoiah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk to angmah hmaa hoiah takhoe boih ai karoek to, to zaehaih to nihcae mah sak o. To pongah Israel kaminawk loe angmacae prae thung hoiah Assyria prae ah misong ah caeh o haih, vaihni ni khoek to to ah oh o.
Until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day.
24 Assyria siangpahrang mah Babylon, Kuthah, Ava, Hammath hoi Sepharviam prae ih kaminawk to hoih moe, Israel kaminawk zuengah, Samaria vangpui ah khosaksak. Nihcae mah Samaria to lak o moe, to vangpuinawk boih khosak o.
And the king of Assyria brought [men] from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed [them] in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel: and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
25 To ah khosak o tangsuek naah, Angraeng to zii o ai; to pongah Angraeng mah kaipuinawk to patoeh moe, thoemto kaminawk to kaek.
And [so] it was at the beginning of their dwelling there, [that] they feared not the LORD: therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which slew [some] of them.
26 To pongah thoemto kaminawk mah, Na patoeh moe, Samaria vangpui ah na ohsak ih kaminawk loe prae thungah kaom Sithaw to panoek o ai pongah, khenah, Sithaw mah kaipuinawk to patoeh moe, vangpui thungah kaom kaminawk to kaek boeh, tiah Assyrian siangpahrang khaeah thuih pae o.
Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.
27 To pacoengah Assyria siangpahrang mah, Samaria hoiah na hoih o ih qaima maeto vangpui ah oh hanah, patoeh o let ah, anih mah to prae thungah kaom Sithaw koehhaih to patuk nasoe, tiah a naa.
Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of the God of the land.
28 To pacoengah Samaria vangpui hoiah hoih o ving ih, qaima maeto loe Bethel ah oh hanah caeh, anih mah Angraeng zit han angaih kawng to patuk.
Then one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Beth-el, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
29 Toe to ah kaom acaeng kaminawk boih loe, angmacae ohhaih ahmuen kruekah angmacae ih sithawnawk to sak o; Samaria kaminawk mah sak o ih sithawnawk to hmuensang kruekah a suek o.
Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put [them] in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.
30 Babylon ih kaminawk mah Sukkoth-Benoth to sak o; Kuthah ih kaminawk mah Nergal to sak o; Hummath ih kaminawk mah Ashima to sak o;
And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
31 Ava ih kaminawk mah Nibhaz hoi Tartak to sak o; Sepharvaim ih kaminawk mah loe Sepharvaim sithaw ah kaom, Adrammelek hoi Anamelek khaeah hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah a caanawk to patoh o.
And the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burnt their children in fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
32 Nihcae mah Angraeng to zit o; toe angmacae ih kaminawk boih to angmacae bokhaih hmuensang ih qaima ah suek o.
So they feared the LORD, and made unto themselves of the lowest of them priests of the high places, which sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
33 Nihcae mah Angraeng to zit o; toe misong ah hoih ih kaminawk mah sak ih baktih toengah, angmacae sithawnawk ih tok to a sak o.
They feared the LORD, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations whom they carried away from thence.
34 Vaihni ni khoek to canghnii ah a sak o ih hmuen to sak o vop; Angraeng to zii o ai; Israel kaminawk han paek ih loknawk, sakzong ih atawknawk doeh pazui o ai; Israel, tiah ahmin paek ih Jakob caanawk khaeah, Angraeng mah paek ih loknawk doeh pazui o ai.
Unto this day they do after the former manners: they fear not the LORD, neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after the law and commandment which the LORD commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel;
35 Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk hoi lokmaihaih sak naah, nihcae khaeah, Kalah sithawnawk to bok o hmah; a hmaa ah akuep o hmah; nihcae ih tok to sah pae o hmah; angbawnhaih doeh sah o hmah;
With whom the LORD had made a covenant, and charged them, saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them:
36 toe thacakhaih ban hoi Izip prae thung hoiah nangcae zaehoikung to bok oh; anih khaeah akuep oh loe, anih khaeah angbawnhaih to sah oh, tiah a naa.
But the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and a stretched out arm, him shall ye fear, and him shall ye worship, and to him shall ye do sacrifice.
37 Nangcae han ka tarik ih, lokpaekhaih hoi sak koi daannawk, zaehhoihhaih daannawk hoi lokpaekhaihnawk to acoehaih hoi sah oh; kalah sithawnawk to bok o hmah.
And the statutes, and the ordinances, and the law, and the commandment, which he wrote for you, ye shall observe to do for evermore; and ye shall not fear other gods.
38 Kai hoiah sak ih lokmaihaih to pahnet o hmah loe, kalah sithawnawk to bok o hmah.
And the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods.
39 Na Angraeng Sithaw khue to bok oh; to tiah ni anih mah na misa ban thung hoiah nangcae to pahlong tih, tiah lokpaekhaih to oh.
But the LORD your God ye shall fear; and he shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.
40 Toe nihcae mah tahngai pae o ai moe, canghnii ah a sak o ih hmuen to pazui o toengtoeng vop.
Howbeit they did not hearken, but they did after their former manner.
41 Hae kaminawk loe angmacae hoi a caanawk ih caa patoeng khoek to, Angraeng to bok o, toe krangnawk doeh bok o toengtoeng vop; ampanawk mah sak o ih hmuen baktih toengah vaihni ni khoek to a sak o vop.
So these nations feared the LORD, and served their graven images, both their children, and their children’s children: as did their fathers, so do they unto this day.
