2 Khokhuen 21

1 Jehoshaphat te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah David khopuei ah a napa rhoek neh a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Jehoram te anih yueng la manghai.

And Jehoshaphat lies with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the City of David, and his son Jehoram reigns in his stead.

2 A boeinaphung ah Jehoshaphat koca rhoek la Azariah, Jehiel, Zekhariah, Azariah, Michael, Shephatiah. He boeih he Israel manghai, Jehoshaphat koca rhoek ni.

And he has brothers, sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah; all these [are] sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel,

3 A napa loh amih te kutdoe la cak, sui, kawnthen neh Judah khuiah kasam khopuei rhoek khaw muep a paek. Tedae Jehoram te tah a caming dongah ram a paek.

and their father gives to them many gifts of silver and of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah, and he has given the kingdom to Jehoram, for he [is] the firstborn.

4 Jehoram loh a napa kah ram te a thoh tih a moem. Tedae a manuca boeih neh Israel mangpa rhoek te khaw cunghang neh a ngawn.

And Jehoram rises up over the kingdom of his father, and strengthens himself, and slays all his brothers with the sword, and also of the heads of Israel.

5 Jehoram te sawmthum kum nit a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum rhet manghai.

Jehoram [is] a son of thirty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned eight years in Jerusalem,

6 Ahab imkhui kah a saii bangla Israel manghai rhoek kah longpuei ah pongpa. Ahab canu te anih yuu la a om dongah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.

and he walks in the way of the kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab did, for a daughter of Ahab has been to him for a wife, and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH,

7 David taengah paipi a saii coeng dongah David imkhui te phae ham tah BOEIPA loh ngaih pawh. Te dongah amah ham neh a ca rhoek ham khaw hnin takuem hmaithoi khueh pah ham khaw a thui coeng.

and YHWH has not been willing to destroy the house of David, for the sake of the covenant that He made with David, and as He had said to give a lamp to him and to his sons [for] all the days.

8 Anih tue vaengah Judah kut hmui lamkah Edom loh boe a koek tih amih soah manghai te a manghai sak uh.

In his days Edom has revolted from under the hand of Judah, and they cause a king to reign over them;

9 Te dongah Jehoram loh amah kah mangpa rhoek neh a taengkah leng boeih khaw a khuen. Khoyin ah thoo tih Edom khaw, a kaepvai ah aka vael neh leng mangpa rhoek te khaw a ngawn.

and Jehoram passes over with his heads, and all the chariots with him, and it comes to pass, he has risen by night and strikes the Edomites who are coming around against him, and the princes of the chariots,

10 Edom loh tahae khohnin hil Judah kut hmui lamloh boe a koek. A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA te a hnawt dongah, amah te kah tue ah Libnah loh anih kut hmui lamkah boe a koek.

and Edom revolts from under the hand of Judah to this day; then Libnah revolts at that time from under his hand, because he has forsaken YHWH, God of his fathers;

11 Anih long khaw Judah tlang ah hmuensang a sak. Jerusalem khosa rhoek te a cukhalh sak tih Judah te a heh.

also, he has made high places on the mountains of Judah, and causes the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit whoredom, and compels Judah.

12 Te dongah tonghma Elijah taeng lamkah cadaek te anih taengla pawk tih, “Na pa David kah Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na pa Jehoshaphat kah longpuei ah khaw, Judah manghai Asa kah longpuei ah na pongpa moenih.

And a writing from Elijah the prophet comes to him, saying, “Thus said YHWH, God of your father David: Because that you have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat, and in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

13 Israel manghai kah longpuei ah na pongpa. Judah neh Jerusalem khosa rhoek te Ahab imkhui kah a cukhalh bangla na cukhalh sak. Na pa imkhui kah na manuca rhoek khaw namah lakah then dae na ngawn.

and you walk in the way of the kings of Israel, and cause Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit whoredom like the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also your brothers, the house of your father, who are better than yourself, you have slain;

14 BOEIPA loh na pilnam soah khaw, na ca rhoek soah khaw, na yuu rhoek soah khaw, na khuehtawn boeih soah khaw lucik neh mat a vuek coeng ke.

behold, YHWH is striking [with] a great striking among your people, and among your sons, and among your wives, and among all your goods—

15 Nang te tlohtat a yet neh, na ko khuikah tlohtat neh, hnin at phoeiah hnin at tlohtat lamloh na bung a vawh hil,” a ti nah.

and you, with many sicknesses, with disease of your bowels, until your bowels come out by the sickness, day by day.”

16 BOEIPA loh Jehoram soah Philisti kah mueihla neh Kushi kut dongah Arab te a haeng thil.

And YHWH wakes up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and of the Arabians, who [are] beside the Cushim,

17 Te dongah Judah te a muk uh tih a rhek sak uh. Manghai im kah a hmuh khuehtawn cungkuem neh a ca rhoek khaw a yuu rhoek khaw a sol pa uh. Anih ham ca pakhat khaw paih pah pawt tih a ca canoi Jehoahaz bueng a paih pah.

and they come up into Judah, and break into it, and take captive all the substance that is found at the house of the king, and also his sons, and his wives, and there has not been left to him a son except Jehoahaz the youngest of his sons.

18 BOEIPA loh anih te a cungkuem neh a vuek tih a ko khuikah tlohtat neh hoeihnah om pawh.

And after all this YHWH has plagued him in his bowels by a disease for which there is no healing,

19 Hnin at phoeiah hnin at ah om tih a tue loh kum nit a thoknah a pha. Te vaengah tah a tlohtat dongah a bung a vawh pah tih tloh thae neh duek. Tedae anih ham tah a pilnam loh a napa rhoek kah hmai bangla hmai toih pawh.

and it comes to pass, from days to days, and at the time of the going out of the end of two years, his bowels have gone out with his sickness, and he dies of severe diseases, and his people have not made for him a burning like the burning of his fathers.

20 Anih te sawmthum kum nit a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum rhet manghai. Anih a caeh akhaw a sahnaih om pawh. Anih te David khopuei ah tah a up uh dae manghai phuel ah moenih.

He was a son of thirty-two [years] in his reigning, and he has reigned eight years in Jerusalem, and he goes without desire, and they bury him in the City of David, and not in the graves of the kings.
