1 Ahaz te a manghai vaengah kum kul lo ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai rhuk manghai. Tedae a napa David bangla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem a saii moenih.

Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. And he did not what was right in the sight of Jehovah, like David his father,

2 Israel manghai rhoek longpuei ah pongpa tih Baal rhoek hamla mueihlawn khaw a saii pah.

but walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and even made molten images for the Baals;

3 Anih loh kolrhawk ah a phum tih BOEIPA loh Israel ca mikhmuh lamkah a haek namtom rhoek kah a tueilaehkoi la hmai dongah a ca rhoek a pup.

and he burned incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burned his sons in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that Jehovah had dispossessed from before the children of Israel.

4 Hmuensang ah khaw, som ah khaw, thing hing tom kah a hmuiah khaw a nawn tih a phum.

And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

Therefore Jehovah his God gave him into the hand of the king of Syria; and they smote him, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought them to Damascus. And he was also given into the hand of the king of Israel, who smote him with a great slaughter.

6 A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA te a toeng uh dongah tatthai ca boeih te hnin at dongah Judah kah Remaliah capa Pekah loh thawng yakhat neh thawng kul a ngawn.

And Pekah the son of Remaliah slew in Judah a hundred and twenty thousand in one day, all valiant men, because they had forsaken Jehovah the God of their fathers.

And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, slew Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the governor of the house, and Elkanah the second to the king.

And the children of Israel carried away captive of their brethren two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took away also much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.

9 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah tonghma, a ming ah Oded te pahoi om tih Samaria la aka pawk caempuei hmai la cet. Te phoeiah amih te, “Na pa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA kah kosi kongah ni amih te Judah neh nang kut ah m'paek. Tedae amih te vaan a pha hil thintoek neh na ngawn.

But a prophet of Jehovah was there, whose name was Oded; and he went out before the host that came to Samaria, and said unto them, Behold, because Jehovah the God of your fathers was wroth with Judah, he gave them into your hand, and ye have slain them in a rage that reaches up to heaven.

10 Judah koca neh Jerusalem nang te salnu la, salpa la kang khoh eh a ti coeng. Nangmih kongah namah neh na taengkah khaw, na Pathen BOEIPA taengah dumlai moenih a?

And now ye think to subjugate the children of Judah and Jerusalem as your bondmen and bondwomen. Are there not with you, even with you, trespasses against Jehovah your God?

11 Kai ol he hnatun lamtah na manuca taeng lamkah na sol tamna te mael laeh. BOEIPA kah thintoek thinsa tah nangmih soah om coeng.

And now hear me, and send back the captives again, whom ye have taken captive of your brethren; for the fierce wrath of Jehovah is upon you.

12 Ephraim koca boeilu lamkah hlang rhoek Jehohanan capa Azariah, Meshillemith capa Berekiah, Shallum capa Hezekiah, Hadlai capa Amasa loh caempuei lamkah aka pawk rhoek te a mah uh.

And certain of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Hezekiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against them that came from the war,

13 Te phoeiah amih te, “Tamna te hela hang khuen uh boeh. Kaimih ham BOEIPA kah dumlai rhung la. Mamih kah tholhnah ham neh mamih kah dumlai ham ka koei eh na ti uh te. Mamih kah dumlai neh Israel sokah thintoek thinsa mah khawk coeng,” a ti uh.

and said to them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither; because, for our guilt before Jehovah, ye think to increase our sins and our trespasses: for our trespass is great, and fierce wrath is upon Israel.

14 Te dongah aka pumcum rhoek long khaw tamna neh kutbuem te mangpa rhoek neh hlangping boeih kah mikhmuh ah a toeng.

Then the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the congregation.

15 Te vaengah ming neh a phoei hlang rhoek te thoo uh tih tamna te a talong uh. Amih pumtling boeih te khaw kutbuem lamkah neh a khuk uh tih amih a bai sakuh.

Amih te rhophoe khopuei Jerikho kah a manuca taengla a thak uh phoeiah Samaria la mael uh.

And the men that have been expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them on asses, and brought them to Jericho the city of palm-trees, to their brethren. And they returned to Samaria.

16 Te vaeng tue ah manghai Ahaz loh amah aka bom la Assyria manghai te a tah.

At that time king Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.

17 Edom khaw koep ha pawk tih Judah te a ngawn phoeiah tamna la a sol uh.

And again the Edomites came and smote Judah, and carried away captives.

And the Philistines invaded the cities of the lowland, and of the south of Judah, and took Beth-shemesh, and Ajalon, and Gederoth, and Socho and its dependent villages, and Timnah and its dependent villages, and Guimzo and its dependent villages; and they dwelt there.

19 Israel manghai Ahaz kong ah ni BOEIPA loh Judah te a kunyun sak. Anih loh Judah ah a hlahpham dongah ni BOEIPA taengah boekoeknah la boe a koek uh.

For Jehovah humbled Judah because of Ahaz king of Israel, for he had made Judah lawless, and transgressed much against Jehovah.

20 Assyria manghai Tiglathpileser khaw anih taengla pawk dae anih te a daengdaeh tih a duel moenih.

And Tilgath-Pilneser king of Assyria came to him, and troubled him, and did not support him.

21 Ahaz loh BOEIPA im neh manghai im te khaw, mangpa rhoek khaw a tael tih Assyria manghai taengla a paek dae anih ham bomnah la a om pah moenih.

For Ahaz stripped the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king and of the princes, and gave to the king of Assyria; but he was of no help to him.

22 Amah kah puencak tue vaengah pataeng khaw BOEIPA taengah boekoek ham aka khoep tah manghai Ahaz amah ni.

And in the time of his trouble he transgressed yet more against Jehovah, this king Ahaz.

23 Amih aka bom Aram manghai rhoek kah pathen te ka nawn daengah ni kai m'bom uh van eh a ti tih, amah aka ngawn Damasku pathen te a nawn. Tedae te anih taengah tah amah neh Israel pum te aka paloe sak la poeh uh.

And he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus, which had smitten him; and he said, Since the gods of the kings of Syria help them, I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.

24 Ahaz loh Pathen im kah hnopai te a coi tih Pathen im kah hnopai te a top. Te phoeiah BOEIPA im kah thohkhaih te a khaih tih Jerusalem kah bangkil boeih ah amah ham hmueihtuk a suem.

And Ahaz gathered the vessels of the house of God, and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and closed the doors of the house of Jehovah, and he made for himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem.

25 Pathen tloe rhoek taengah phum hamla Judah kah khopuei, khopuei boeih ah hmuensang te a saii tih a napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.

And in every several city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked to anger Jehovah the God of his fathers.

26 Anih kah ol noi neh a longpuei boeih te a kung a dong khaw, Judah neh Israel manghai rhoek cabu khuiah a daek uh coeng he.

And the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

27 Ahaz te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah anih te Jerusalem khopuei ah a up uh ngawn dae Israel manghai rhoek kah phuel ah tah anih te tlak sak uh pawh. Te phoeiah a capa Hezekiah te anih yueng la manghai.

And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, in Jerusalem; but they brought him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel. And Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
