1 Remaliah capa Pekah kah kum hlai rhih kum vaengah Judah manghai Jotham capa Ahaz khaw manghai van.
In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah, Ahaz, the son of Jotham, became king of Judah.
2 Ahaz amah he kum kul a lo ca vaengah manghai. Jerusalem ah kum hlai rhuk manghai dae a napa David bangla a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem a saii moenih.
Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king; he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God, as David his father did.
3 Israel manghai rhoek kah longpuei ah pongpa tih namtom kah tueilaehkoi la a ca pataeng hmai dongah a kat sak. BOEIPA loh amih te Israel ca mikhmuh lamkah ni a. haek coeng.
But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel, and even made his son go through the fire, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.
4 Hmuensang neh som ah khaw, thing hing cungkuem hmuiah khaw a nawn tih a phum.
And he made offerings, burning them in the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.
5 Aram manghai Rezin neh Israel manghai Remaliah capa Pekah loh caemtloek la Jerusalem a paan rhoi. Te vaengah Ahaz te a dum rhoi dae a vathoh ham tah coeng rhoi pawh.
Then Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war; and they made an attack on Ahaz, shutting him in, but were not able to overcome him.
6 Te vaeng tue ah Aram manghai Rezin loh Aram hamla Elath te a lat pah. Elath lamkah Judah te a biit dongah Arammi neh Edom loh Elath la puen uh tih tahae khohnin duela pahoi kho a sak uh.
At that time the king of Edom got Elath back for Edom, and sent the Jews out of Elath; and the Edomites came back to Elath where they are living to this day.
7 Ahaz loh Assyria manghai Tiglathpileser taengah puencawn a tueih tih, “Kai he na sal neh na ca ni. Halo lamtah kai he Aram manghai kut lamkah neh kai aka tlai thil Israel manghai kut lamkah n'khang laeh,” a ti nah.
So Ahaz sent representatives to Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come to my help against the kings of Aram and Israel who have taken up arms against me.
8 Te vaengah Ahaz loh cak neh sui khaw, BOEIPA im neh manghai im thakvoh khuikah a hmuh boeih te a loh tih Assyria manghai taengah kapbaih la a pat.
And Ahaz took the silver and gold which were in the house of the Lord and in the king's store-house, and sent them as an offering to the king of Assyria.
9 Anih ol te Assyria manghai loh a ngai pah dongah Assyria manghai loh Damasku te a paan. Te te a buem van neh a khuikah rhoek te Kir la a poelyoe tih Rezin te khaw a duek sak.
And the king of Assyria, in answer to his request, went up against Damascus and took it, and took its people away as prisoners to Kir, and put Rezin to death.
10 Manghai Ahaz te Assyria manghai Tiglathpileser doe ham Damasku la pawk. Te vaengah Damasku kah hmueihtuk te a hmuh. Te dongah manghai Ahaz loh khosoih Uriah taengla hmueihtuk kah mueiloh neh a kutngo cungkuem dongkah a muei te a pat.
Then King Ahaz went to Damascus for a meeting with Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria; and there he saw the altar which was at Damascus; and King Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest a copy of the altar, giving the design of it and all the details of its structure.
11 Te dongah Damasku lamkah manghai Ahaz loh a cungkuem a pat pah vanbangla khosoih Uriah loh hmueihtuk te a sak tih Damasku lamkah manghai Ahaz a mael hlan ah khosoih Uriah long khaw ana saii pah van.
And from the copy King Ahaz sent from Damascus, Urijah made an altar and had it ready by the time King Ahaz came back from Damascus.
12 Damasku lamkah manghai a pawk vaengah tah manghai loh hmueihtuk te a hmuh. Te dongah manghai loh hmueihtuk taengla tawn uh tih a sola luei.
And when the king came from Damascus, he saw the altar; and he went up on it and made an offering on it.
13 Te phoeiah a hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang te a phum. A tuisi te a doeng tih rhoepnah thii te hmueihtuk dongah amah la a haeh.
He made his burned offering and his meal offering and his drink offering there, draining out the blood of his peace-offerings on the altar.
14 BOEIPA mikhmuh kah rhohum hmueihtuk te khaw im hmai lamkah hmueihtuk laklo neh BOEIPA im laklo lamloh a puen tih tlangpuei hmueihtuk kaep ah a khueh.
And the brass altar, which was before the Lord, he took from the front of the house, from between his altar and the house of the Lord, and put it on the north side of his altar.
15 Manghai Ahaz loh khosoih Uriah te a uen, a uen tih, “Mincang kah hmueihhlutnah neh hlaem kah khocang khaw, manghai kah hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang khaw, khohmuen pilnam cungkuem kah hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang khaw a tuisi khaw, hmueihtuk len dongah phum. Hmueihhlutnah thii boeih neh hmueih thii boeih tah a soah haeh thil. Tedae rhohum hmueihtuk tah kai ham aka hnukdawn la om saeh,” a ti nah.
And King Ahaz gave orders to Urijah the priest, saying, Make the morning burned offering and the evening meal offering and the king's burned offering and meal offering, with the burned offerings of all the people and their meal offerings and drink offerings, on the great altar, and put on it all the blood of the burned offerings and of the beasts which are offered; but the brass altar will be for my use to get directions from the Lord.
16 A cungkuem dongah manghai Ahaz kah a uen bangla khosoih Uriah loh a saii.
So Urijah the priest did everything as the king said
17 Manghai Ahaz loh tungkho soenglong te a top tih te dong lamkah baeldung te khaw a khoe. Tuli te a dangkah rhohum vaito dong lamloh a hlak tih lung phaih dongah a khueh.
And King Ahaz took off the sides of the wheeled bases, and took down the great water-vessel from off the brass oxen which were under it and put it on a floor of stone.
18 Hlamim khaw im taengkah a sak Sabbath hlamim tah Assyria manghai kah maelhmai kongah ni BOEIPA im kah manghai khuirhai voel la a det.
the house of the Lord, because of the king of Assyria.
19 Ahaz kah ol noi neh a bi saii te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
Now the rest of the things which Ahaz did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
20 Ahaz te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Hezekiah te anih yueng la manghai.
And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
