2 Khokhuen 30
1 Hezekiah loh Israel pum neh Judah a tah tih Ephraim neh Manasseh ham khaw Jerusalem kah BOEIPA im la a mop ham neh, Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengah Yoom saii ham te ca a daek pah.
Then sent Hezekiah unto all Israel and Judah, moreover also, letters, wrote he unto Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come unto the house of Yahweh, in Jerusalem, —to keep a passover unto Yahweh, God of Israel.
2 A hla bae dongah tah Yoom saii hamla manghai khaw, a mangpa rhoek khaw, Jerusalem kah hlangping boeih khaw a thui uh.
Yea, the king and his rulers and all the convocation in Jerusalem, had taken counsel, —to keep the passover in the second month.
3 Tedae Yoom te te vaeng tue ah saii hamla noeng uh pawh. Khosoih rhoek khaw a rhoeh hil ciim uh hlan tih pilnam khaw Jerusalem ah tingtun hlan.
For they were unable to keep it at that time, —because, the priests, had not hallowed themselves in sufficient numbers, and, the people, had not gathered themselves unto Jerusalem.
4 Te vaengah ol he manghai mikhmuh ah khaw, hlangping boeih kah mikhmuh ah khaw dueng ngawn.
And the thing was right, in the eyes of the king, —and in the eyes of all the convocation.
5 A daek bangla a saii uh dae a cungkuem uh pawt dongah, Israel Pathen BOEIPA kah Yoom saii vaengah tah Jerusalem la mop sak ham, Israel pum ah, Beersheba lamloh Dan duela olthang pat ham ol a cak sakuh.
So they established a decree, to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beer-sheba even unto Dan, that they should come in to keep a passover unto Yahweh the God of Israel, in Jerusalem, —for, not for a long time, had they kept it as written.
6 Manghai neh a mangpa rhoek kut dongkah ca aka yong puei rhoek tah Judah neh Israel pum ah cet uh tih manghai olpaek bangla, “Israel ca rhoek aw, Abraham, Isaak, Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengla mael uh laeh. Te daengah ni nangmih aka sueng rhoek te Assyria manghai kut lamloh loeihnah la a mael eh.
The runners, therefore, went with letters from the hand of the king and his rulers, throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, —Ye sons of Israel, return ye unto Yahweh, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, and he will return unto the remnant, that which is left to you, out of the hand of the kings of Assyria.
7 A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah boe aka koek na pa rhoek neh na manuca rhoek bangla om uh boeh. Te dongah amih te na hmuh uh bangla imsuep la a khueh.
And be not ye like your fathers, or like your brethren, who acted unfaithfully with Yahweh, God of your fathers, —who therefore delivered them up for an astonishment, as, ye yourselves, can see.
8 Tahae atah na pa rhoek bangla na rhawn te mangkhak sak uh boeh. BOEIPA taengah kut duen uh laeh. Kumhal hamla a ciim tangtae a rhokso kungla ha mop uh lamtah na Pathen BOEIPA taengah thothueng uh. Te daengah ni a thintoek thinsa te nangmih taeng lamloh a mael eh.
Now, do not stiffen your neck, like your fathers, —stretch forth the hand unto Yahweh, and enter into his sanctuary which he hath hallowed unto times age-abiding, and serve Yahweh your God, that he may turn from you the glow of his anger.
9 BOEIPA taengla na mael uh mak atah na manuca rhoek neh na ca rhoek khaw, amih aka sol rhoek kah mikhmuh ah haidamnah la, te phoeiah he khohmuen la ha mael ni. Nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA tah lungvatnah neh thinphoei la a om dongah a taengla na mael uh atah nangmih taeng lamloh maelhmai mangthong mahpawh,” a ti nah.
For, by your returning unto Yahweh, your brethren and your children, shall find compassion before their captors, so as to return unto this land. For, gracious and compassionate, is Yahweh your God, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye will return unto him.
10 Te phoeiah ca thak la aka om rhoek te khopuei lamloh khopuei khat hil, Ephraim neh Manasseh khohmuen neh Zebulun duela cet uh. Tedae amih aka nueih thil neh amih aka tamdaeng la om uh.
So the runners were passing from city to city throughout the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, even unto Zebulun, —but they were laughing them to scorn, and mocking them.
11 Te cakhaw Asher lamkah, Manasseh neh Zebulun lamkah hlang rhoek tah kunyun uh tih Jerusalem la pawk uh.
Howbeit, some, out of Asher and Manasseh and out of Zebulun, humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem.
12 BOEIPA ol dongah manghai neh mangpa rhoek olpaek te vai sak ham, amih te lungbuei pakhat la khueh sak ham te Pathen kah kut tah Judah ah om bal coeng.
Also, upon Judah, came the hand of God, to give them one heart, —to keep the commandment of the king and the rulers, as the word of Yahweh.
13 A hla bae dongah tah vaidamding khotue te saii hamla pilnam loh Jerusalem ah muep tingtun uh tih hlangping khaw muep cungkuem uh.
And there gathered themselves unto Jerusalem much people, to keep the festival of unleavened cakes, in the second month, —an exceeding large convocation.
14 Te dongah thoo uh tih Jerusalem kah hmueihtuk te a khoe uh. Hlupnah hnopai boeih te khaw a khoe uh tih Kidron soklong la a voeih uh.
Then rose they up, and removed the altars, which were in Jerusalem, -and, all the censers, removed they, and cast them into the Kidron ravine.
15 A hla bae dongkah hnin hlai li vaengah tah Yoom te a ngawn uh. Te vaengah khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek tah a hmaithae uh. Te dongah a ciim uh phoeiah hmueihhlutnah te BOEIPA im la a khuen uh.
Then slaughtered they the passover, on the fourteenth of the second month, —and, the priests and the Levites, were put to shame, and hallowed themselves, and brought in the ascending-sacrifices of the house of Yahweh.
16 Pathen kah hlang Moses olkhueng dongkah a laitloeknah bangla amamih paihmuen ah pai uh. Khosoih rhoek loh Levi kut lamkah thii te a haeh uh.
And they stood in their place, according to their regulation, according to the law of Moses the man of God, —the priests, dashing the blood, [which they received] at the hand of the Levites.
17 Hlangping lakli ah aka ciim uh pawt khaw muep om. Te dongah aka cim pawt boeih kah Yoom ngawnnah ham neh BOEIPA taengah ciim ham te Levi rhoek loh a hut nah.
For there were many in the convocation, who had not hallowed themselves, —but, the Levites, were over the slaughtering of the passover-lambs, for every one who was, not pure, to hallow him unto Yahweh.
18 A puehkan la pilnam aka ping Ephraim, Manasseh, Issakhar neh Zebulun lamkah tah caihcil uh pawt sitoe cakhaw a daek tangtae neh kalthalh la Yoom a caak uh. Tedae Hezekiah loh amih ham thangthui tih, “BOEIPA aw, a then la dawth pah mai saeh.
For, the multitude of the people, many out of Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not purified themselves, for they did eat the passover, otherwise than as was written, —for Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, May Yahweh the Good, put a propitiatory-covering about
19 Hmuencim kah ciimnah bangla om pawt cakhaw a napa rhoek kah Pathen, Yahweh Pathen te toem hamla a thinko boeih a cikngae sak,” a ti.
every one who hath prepared, his heart, to seek God, even Yahweh, God of his fathers, —though not according to the purification of the sanctuary!
20 BOEIPA loh Hezekiah taengkah te a yaak van neh pilnam te a hoeih sak.
And Yahweh hearkened unto Hezekiah, and healed the people.
21 Jerusalem ah aka mop Israel ca rhoek loh hnin rhih khuiah vaidamding khotue te a saii uh. Hnin bal hnin bal BOEIPA taengah kohoenah a len neh a thangthen uh. Khosoih neh Levi rhoek loh BOEIPA te a sarhi tumbael neh a thangthenuh.
And so the sons of Israel who were found in Jerusalem kept the festival of unleavened cakes seven days, with great rejoicing, —and the Levites and the priests, were offering praise unto Yahweh day by day, with loud instruments, unto Yahweh.
22 BOEIPA kah lungmingnah then neh aka cangbam Levi pum kah lungbuei ah Hezekiah loh a thui pah. Te dongah hnin rhih tingtunnah khuiah tah rhoepnah hmueih la a nawn te a caak uh tih a napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA te a uem uh.
And Hezekiah spake unto the heart of all the Levites who were giving good instruction respecting Yahweh, —and they did eat the appointed feast seven days, sacrificing the peace-offerings, and offering praise unto Yahweh, God of their fathers.
23 Te phoeiah hnin rhih koep saii ham te hlangping boeih loh a thui dongah kohoenah neh hnin rhih a saii uh.
Then all the convocation took counsel, to keep seven days more, —and they kept seven days, with rejoicing.
24 Judah manghai Hezekiah loh hlangping ham vaito thawng khat, boiva thawng rhih a pom pah. Mangpa rhoek long khaw hlangping ham te vaito thawng khat, boiva thawng rha a pom pah tih khosoih rhoek te a cungkuem la a ciim uh.
For, Hezekiah king of Judah, presented to the convocation, a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep, and, the rulers, presented to the convocation, a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep, -and, priests in great numbers, hallowed themselves.
25 Te vaengah Judah hlangping boeih khaw, khosoih neh Levi rhoek khaw, Israel lamkah aka pawk hlangping boeih neh Israel khohmuen lamkah aka pawk yinlai khaw, Judah kah khosa rhoek kaw a kohoe uh.
So all the convocation of Judah, and the priests and the Levites, and all the convocation that came in out of Israel, rejoiced, —also the sojourners who were coming in out of the land of Israel, and the dwellers in Judah.
26 Te dongah Jerusalem ah kohoenah a len om coeng. Israel manghai David capa Solomon tue lamloh he bang he Jerusalem ah a om noek moenih.
Thus was there great rejoicing, in Jerusalem, —for, since the days of Solomon son of David king of Israel, there had not been the like of this, in Jerusalem.
27 Levi khosoih rhoek te pai uh tih pilnam yoethen a paekuh. Amih kah thangthuinah loh a hmuencim kah khuirhung vaan duela a pha dongah amih ol te a hnatun pah.
Then rose up the priests the Levites, and blessed the people, and there was a hearkening unto their voice, —and their prayer entered into his holy dwelling-place, even into the heavens.
