1 BOEIPA ol tah Baasha hamla Hanani capa Jehu taengla ha pawk tih,

The LORD’s word came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,

2 “Nang te laipi lamloh kan pomsang tih ka pilnam Israel soah rhaengsang la nang kang khueh. Tedae Jeroboam kah longpuei ah na pongpa tih ka pilnam Israel te na tholh sak dongah amih kah tholhnah neh kai nan veet.

“Because I exalted you out of the dust and made you prince over my people Israel, and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins,

3 Baasha hnuk neh a imkhui hnuk te ka hlawp pah coeng he. Te dongah na imkhui te Nebat capa Jeroboam imkhui bangla kang khueh ni.

behold, I will utterly sweep away Baasha and his house; and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

4 Khopuei ah Baasha kah a duek rhok te ui loh a caak vetih kohong kah a duek rhok te vaan kah vaa loh a caak ni,” a ti.

The dogs will eat Baasha’s descendants who die in the city; and he who dies of his in the field, the birds of the sky will eat.”

5 Baasha kah ol noi neh a saii te khaw, a thayung thamal khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek moenih a?

Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

6 Baasha te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah Tirzah ah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Elah te anih yueng la manghai.

Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his place.

7 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae cungkuem a saii tih a kut saii neh amah a veet dongah, Jeroboam imkhui bangla khueh hamla, Hanani capa tonghma Jehu kut ah khaw Baasha ham neh a imkhui hamla BOEIPA ol ha pawk. Te dongah ni anih te a ngawn.

Moreover the LORD’s word came by the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha and against his house, both because of all the evil that he did in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he struck him.

8 Judah manghai Asa kah a kum kul kum rhuk vaengah Baasha capa Elah he Tirzah kah Israel ah kum nit manghai.

In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha began to reign over Israel in Tirzah for two years.

9 Anih tah amah kah sal, leng caem rhakthuem mangpa Zimri loh a taeng. Te vaengah amh te Tirzah kah Tirzah im tawt Arza im ah a ok tih rhui.

His servant Zimri, captain of half his chariots, conspired against him. Now he was in Tirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was over the household in Tirzah;

10 Zimri a pawk vaengah Elah te a ngawn tih a duek sak. Judah manghai Asa kah kum kul kum rhih vaengah Elah yueng la manghai.

and Zimri went in and struck him and killed him in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his place.

11 A manghai neh a ngolkhoel dongah a ngol vanbangla Baasha imkhui te boeih a ngawn tih pangbueng aka yun thil khaw, a tlan sa khaw, a hui khaw hlun pawh.

When he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, he attacked all the house of Baasha. He didn’t leave him a single one who urinates on a wall amongst his relatives or his friends.

12 BOEIPA ol bangla Zimri loh Baasha imkhui te boeih a mitmoeng sak. Te te Baasha hamla tonghma Jehu kut ah ana thui coeng.

Thus Zimri destroyed all the house of Baasha, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke against Baasha by Jehu the prophet,

13 Baasha kah tholhnah cungkuem neh a capa Elah kah tholhnah dongah tholh uh. Te dongah Israel te a tholh sak tih amih kah a honghi neh Israel Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.

for all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, which they sinned and with which they made Israel to sin, to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.

14 Elah kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?

Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

15 Judah manghai Asa kah kum kul kum rhih, Tirzah ah Zimri hnin rhih a manghai vaengah pilnam loh Philisti kah Gibbethon a rhaeh rhil.

In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri reigned seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.

16 Pilnam aka rhaeh loh a yaak vaengah, “Zimri loh a taeng tih manghai te khaw a ngawn,” a ti uh. Te dongah Israel pum loh Israel sokah caempuei mangpa Omri te rhaehhmuen khuiah hnin at neh a manghai sakuh.

The people who were encamped heard that Zimri had conspired, and had also killed the king. Therefore all Israel made Omri, the captain of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.

17 Te dongah Omri neh a taengkah Israel pum tah Gibbethon lamloh thoeih uh tih Tirzah te a dum uh.

Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.

18 Khopuei a buem pah te Zimri loh a hmuh van neh manghai im kah impuei la kun. Te phoeiah manghai im te a kaep ah hmai neh a hoeh tih amah khaw duek.

When Zimri saw that the city was taken, he went into the fortified part of the king’s house and burnt the king’s house over him with fire, and died,

19 A tholhnah dongah a tholhnah bangla BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii te tholh coeng. Israel te tholh sak ham aka saii Jeroboam kah longpuei neh a tholhnah dongah ni a. pongpa.

for his sins which he sinned in doing that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did to make Israel to sin.

20 Zimri kah ol noi, a lairhui neh a ven khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?

Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason that he committed, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

21 Te vaengah Israel pilnam he rhakthuem la vik a paek. Pilnam rhakthuem te Ginath capa Tibni taengah om tih amah te a manghai sak. A rhakthuem te Omri hnuk a vai.

Then the people of Israel were divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king, and half followed Omri.

22 Tedae Omri hnukkah pilnam loh Ginath capa Tibni hnukah pilnam te a khuk vaengah Tibni te duek tih Omri te manghai.

But the people who followed Omri prevailed against the people who followed Tibni the son of Ginath; so Tibni died, and Omri reigned.

23 Judah manghai Asa kah kum sawmthum kum khat vaengah, Omri loh Israel kum hlai nit a manghai thil tih Tirzah ah kum rhuk manghai.

In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri began to reign over Israel for twelve years. He reigned six years in Tirzah.

24 Shemer taengkah Samaria tlang te cak talent panit neh a lai. Tlang soah kho a thoong tih a thoong khopuei ming te tlang kah boei Shemer ming neh Samaria la a khue.

He bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver; and he built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, Samaria, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill.

25 Omri loh BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii tih amah hmai kah boeih lakah thae a huet.

Omri did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and dealt wickedly above all who were before him.

26 Nebat capa Jeroboam kah longpuei neh anih kah tholhnah cungkuem dongah ni a. pongpa. Anih kah tholhnah loh Israel te a tholh sak tih amih kah a honghi neh Israel Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.

For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sins with which he made Israel to sin, to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.

27 Omri kah ol noi a khueh te khaw, a thayung thamal neh a tueng sak te khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?

Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did, and his might that he showed, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

28 Omri te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah Samaria ah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Ahab te anih yueng la manghai.

So Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria; and Ahab his son reigned in his place.

29 Judah manghai Asa kah kum sawmthum kum rhet kum vaengah Omri capa Ahab te Israel soah manghai. Omri capa Ahab loh Samaria kah Israel soah kum kul kum nit a manghai thil.

In the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, Ahab the son of Omri began to reign over Israel. Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.

30 Omri capa Ahab loh anih hmai kah boeih lakah khaw BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.

Ahab the son of Omri did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight above all that were before him.

31 Nebat capa Jeroboam kah tholhnah dongah a pongpa te phoeng a? A yuu te Sidoni manghai Ethbaal canu Jezebel te a loh. Cet bal tih Baal taengah tho a thueng tih a taengah bakop.

As if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, he took as wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and went and served Baal and worshipped him.

32 Baal hamla hmueihtuk a suem pah tih Samaria ah Baal im a sak.

He raised up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.

33 Ahab loh Asherah a saii. A saii te khaw amah hmai kah aka om Israel manghai boeih lakah khaw Israel Pathen BOEIPA a veet te Ahab loh a koei.

Ahab made the Asherah; and Ahab did more yet to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him.

34 Anih tue vaengah Betheli Hiel loh Jerikho te a thoh. Nun capa Joshua kut ah a thui BOEIPA ol bangla a caming Abiram neh a toong tih a canoi Segub neh thohkhaih a pai sak.

In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho. He laid its foundation with the loss of Abiram his firstborn, and set up its gates with the loss of his youngest son Segub, according to the LORD’s word, which he spoke by Joshua the son of Nun.
