2 Siangpahrang 8
1 Elisha mah a capa hingsak let ih nongpata khaeah, Nangmah hoi nangmah ih imthung takohnawk to angthawk oh loe caeh oh; na oh thaih ih ahmuen ah caeh oh loe, om oh; Angraeng mah hae prae thungah, saning sarihto thung khokhahaih phaksak hanah khokhan boeh, tiah a naa.
Elisha told the woman whose son he had brought back to life, “You and your family need to pack up and leave, and live where you can somewhere else like a foreigner. For the Lord announced a famine will come to the land and will last seven years.”
2 Sithaw kami mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, to nongpata mah angthawk moe, sak; anih loe a imthung takoh kaminawk boih hoi nawnto caeh moe, Philistin prae thungah saning sarihto oh.
The woman packed up and did what the man of God had told her. She and her family went and lived as foreigners for seven years in the country of the Philistines.
3 Saning sarihto boeng pacoengah, Philistin prae hoiah amlaem let; siangpahrang khaeah angmah ih im hoi angmah ih long ahmuen to hnik let hanah a caeh.
When the seven years were over, she came back from the country of the Philistines and went to the king to appeal for the return of her house and lands.
4 Siangpahrang mah Sithaw kami ih tamna Gehazi khaeah, Elisha mah sak ih lensawk dawnrai koi hmuennawk to na thui ah, tiah a naa.
The king was talking with Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, asking him, “Please tell me about all the wonderful things Elisha did.”
5 Elisha mah kadueh kami kawbangmaw hingsak let, tiah Gehazi mah thuih pae nathuem ah, Elisha mah a capa hingsak let ih nongpata loe a im hoi angmah ih long ahmuen hnik hanah siangpahrang khaeah caeh. Gehazi mah, Aw ka angraeng, siangpahrang, to nongpata loe anih hae boeh ni; hae kami loe Elisha mah hingsak let ih, nongpata ih capa ni, tiah a naa.
It so happened that right then Gehazi was telling the king the story of how Elisha had brought the dead boy back to life when his mother arrived to make her appeal to the king for the return of her house and lands. “My lord the king,” Gehazi called out, “this is the woman, and this is her son that Elisha brought back to life.”
6 Siangpahrang mah to nongpata khaeah to kawng to dueng naah, nongpata mah anih khaeah thuih pae. Siangpahrang mah angmah ih angraeng maeto kawk moe, Hae nongpata ih hmuennawk boih paek let ah, prae a caehtaak pacoeng hoi vaihi khoek to kaom a prae thung hoiah hnuk ih hmuennawk to paek boih let hanah, a thuih pae.
The king asked the woman about it and she explained the whole story to him. The king gave orders to an official, saying, “Make sure everything that belonged to her is returned to her, together with all the profit from her lands from the day that she left the country until now.”
7 Elisha loe Damaska vangpui ah caeh; to naah Syria siangpahrang Ben-Hadad loe ngannat; siangpahrang khaeah, Sithaw kami hae ah angzoh, tiah thuih pae o.
Elisha went to Damascus when Ben-hadad king of Aram was ill. The king was informed, “The man of God has arrived in town.”
8 Siangpahrang mah Hazael khaeah, Tangqum maeto sin paeh loe, Sithaw kami tongh hanah caeh ah; anih mah, Kai loe hae nathaih thung hoiah ngan ka tui let tih maw, tiah angmah ih Angraeng khaeah duengsak ah, tiah a naa.
The king ordered Hazael, “Take a gift with you and go and meet the man of God. Ask him to ask the Lord, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
9 To pongah Hazael loe tahnongsawk hrang quipalito nuiah Damaska vangpui thung ih kahoih koek tangqum to phawh moe, Elisha tongh hanah caeh, anih hmaa ah angdoet moe, Na capa Ben-Hadad Syria siangpahrang mah, Kai loe hae nathaih thung hoiah ka hoih let tih maw? tiah duengsak hanah kai ang patoeh, tiah a naa.
So Hazael went to meet Elisha. He took with him a gift of all the best things from Damascus—forty camel-loads of goods. He came in and stood before him and said, “Your son Ben-hadad, king of Aram, has sent me to you to ask, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
10 Elisha mah anih khaeah, Caeh loe hae tiah thui paeh, Ngan na tui let tih; toe anih loe dueh tangtang tih, tiah Angraeng mah ang hnuksak, tiah a naa.
“Go and tell him, ‘You will definitely recover.’ But the Lord has shown me that definitely he is going to die,” Elisha replied.
11 Anih mah Hazael mikhmai sae ai karoek to khet; to pacoeng ah Sithaw kami to qah.
Elisha stared at him for a long time until Hazael became uncomfortable. Then the man of God started to cry.
12 Hazael mah, Ka angraeng, tipongah na qah loe? tiah a naa. Anih mah, Israel kaminawk nuiah na sak han koi sethaih to ka panoek pongah ka qah; nang mah nihcae misa abuephaih im to hmai hoiah na thlaek pae ueloe, thendoengnawk to sumsen hoiah na hum tih; a caanawk to long ah na va ueloe, zokpomh nongpatanawk to na taprok pae tih, tiah a naa.
“Why are you crying, my lord?” asked Hazael. “Because I know the evil things you are going to do to the Israelites,” Elisha replied. “You will set their fortresses on fire, kill their young men with the sword, dash to pieces their little ones, and rip open their pregnant women.”
13 Hazael mah, Na tamna kai, ui mah kawbangmaw to baktih kalen hmuennawk to ka sah thai tih? tiah a naa. Elisha mah, Nang loe Syria siangpahrang ah na om tih, tiah Angraeng mah ang hnuksak boeh, tiah a naa.
“But how could someone like me who's just a ‘dog’ achieve anything like that?” Hazael asked. “The Lord has shown me that you are going to be the king of Aram,” Elisha replied.
14 Hazael mah Elisha to tacawt taak moe, angmah ih angraeng khaeah caeh. Ben-Hadad mah, Elisha mah timaw ang thuih? tiah dueng naah, Hazael mah, Ngan na tui let tih hmang, tiah ang thuih, tiah a naa.
Hazael left Elisha and went to his master, who asked him, “What did Elisha tell you?” Hazael replied, “He told me you would definitely recover.”
15 Hazael mah khawnbangah kathah parai kahni to lak moe, tui ah nup pacoengah, siangpahrang ih mikhmai to khuk pae khoep, to pongah siangpahrang loe duek; to pacoengah Hazael to siangpahrang ah oh.
But the following day Hazael took the bed cover, soaked it in water, and spread it over the king's face until he died. Then Hazael took over from him as king.
16 Ahap capa Joram Israel siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning quipangato haih naah, Jehosaphat capa Jehoram doeh Judah siangpahrang ah oh.
Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, began his reign as king of Judah in the fifth year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel, while Jehoshaphat was still king of Judah.
17 Siangpahrang ah oh naah, anih loe saning quithumto pacoeng, saning hnetto oh boeh; anih loe Jerusalem ah saning tazetto thung siangpahrang ah oh.
He was thirty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eight years.
18 Anih loe Israel siangpahrangnawk caehhaih loklam to pazui; Ahab canu to zu haih pongah, Ahab imthung takoh mah sak ih baktih toengah anih mah doeh sak, anih loe Angraeng mikhnukah kasae hmuen to sak.
Jehoram followed the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for he married a daughter of Ahab and did what was evil in the Lord's sight.
19 Toe a tamna David pongah, Angraeng mah Judah to phraek han koeh ai; anih loe David hoi a caanawk khaeah hmai paaang toepsoep hanah loksuek boeh.
But for the sake of David his servant the Lord didn't want to destroy Judah since he had promised him that there would always be a ruler from his descendants, like a lamp forever.
20 Anih dung nathuem ah Edom mah Judah to tuk moe, angmacae koeh ah angmacae ih acaeng to siangpahrang ah suek o.
During Jehoram's time as king, Edom rebelled against Judah's rule and chose their own king.
21 To pongah Joram mah hrang lakok to sin boih moe, Zair vangpui ah caeh; anih loe aqum ah angthawk moe, hrang lakok hoiah anih takui Edom ih misatuh angraengnawk to tuk; to naah kaminawk loe angmacae im ah cawnh o.
So Jehoram went over to Zair with all his chariots. The Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, but he took action and attacked at night. But his army ran back to their homes.
22 To pongah vaihni ni khoek to Edom kaminawk loe Judah ih misa ah oh o poe; to nathuem ah Libnah prae doeh misa angthawk.
As a result Edom has been in rebellion against Judah's rule to this day. At the same time Libnah also decided to rebel.
23 Joram siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk hoi a sak ih hmuennawk boih loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
The rest of what happened in Jehoram's reign and all that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
24 Jehoram loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, ampanawk khaeah David vangpui ah aphum o; to pacoengah a capa Ahaziah to siangpahrang ah oh.
Jehoram died and was buried with his forefathers in the City of David. His son Ahaziah succeeded him as king.
25 Israel siangpahrang Ahab capa Joram siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hatlaihnetto naah, Judah siangpahrang Jehoram capa Ahaziah to siangpahrang ah oh.
Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, became king of Judah in the twelfth year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab, king of Israel.
26 Ahaziah siangpahrang ah oh naah, saning pumphae hnetto oh boeh; anih loe Jerusalam ah saningto thung siangpahrang ah oh. Anih ih amno hmin loe Israel siangpahrang Omri canu, Athaliah.
Ahaziah was twenty-two when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for one year. His mother's name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri, king of Israel.
27 Anih loe Ahab imthung takoh caehhaih loklam to pazui; Ahab imthung takoh ah oh pongah, Ahab imthung takoh mah sak ih hmuen baktih toengah, Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak.
Ahaziah also followed the evil ways of the family of Ahab, and did what was evil in the Lord's sight as the family of Ahab had done, for he was related to them by marriage.
28 Ahaziah loe Syria siangpahrang Hazael tuk hanah Ahab capa Joram hoiah Ramoth Gilead ah nawnto caeh; to naah Syria kaminawk mah Joram to ahmaa caak o sak.
Ahaziah went with Joram, son of Ahab, to fight against Hazael, king of Aram, at Ramoth-gilead. The Arameans wounded Joram,
29 Joram siangpahrang loe, Syria siangpahrang Hazael hoi Ramah ah misa angtuk hoi; to naah Syria kaminawk mah anih to ahmaa caak o sak pongah, ahmaa hoisak hanah Jezreel ah amlaem let. Judah siangpahrang Jehoram capa Ahaziah loe ahmaa kacaa Ahab capa Joram khaeah paqaih hanah Jezreel ah caeh tathuk.
and he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he'd received in Ramah fighting against Hazael king of Aram. Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went to Jezreel to visit Joram, son of Ahab, because Joram was wounded.
