1 Manasseh a manghai vaengah kum hlai nit ni a lo ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah kum sawmnga kum nga manghai. A manu ming tah Hephzibah ni.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hephzibah.
2 BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh lamkah a haek namtom rhoek kah tueilaehkoi bangla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, like the disgusting things of the nations whom Yahweh had driven out before the people of Israel.
3 Mael tih a napa Hezekiah loh a phae hmuensang te a sak. Baal ham hmueihtuk a thoh tih Israel manghai Ahab kah a saii bangla Asherah te a saii. Vaan kah caempuei cungkuem taengah bakop tih te rhoek taengah tho a thueng.
For he rebuilt the high places that Hezekiah his father had destroyed, and he built altars for Baal, made an Asherah pole, as Ahab king of Israel had done, and he bowed down to all the stars of heaven and worshiped them.
4 BOEIPA loh, “Ka ming he Jerusalem ah ni ka khueh eh,” a ti vanbangla BOEIPA im ah hmueihtuk a suem.
Manasseh built altars in the house of Yahweh, although Yahweh had commanded, “It is in Jerusalem that my name will be forever.”
5 BOEIPA im kah vongup rhoi ah vaan caempuei cungkuem ham hmueihtuk a suem pah.
He built altars for all the stars of heaven in the two courtyards of the house of Yahweh.
6 A ca te hmai dongah a kat sak. Kutyaek a sawt tih lung a sawt. Rhaitonghma a dawt tih a mikhmuh ah boethae saii ham neh BOEIPA veet ham te hnam la tlung.
He caused his son to pass through the fire, he performed sorcery and divination and consulted with those who talked with the dead and with those who talked with spirits. He did much evil in the sight of Yahweh, provoking him to anger.
7 Asherah mueithuk a saii te im ah a khueh. Te te BOEIPA loh a ca David taeng neh Solomon taengah tah, “He im khui neh Israel koca cungkuem lamloh ka coelh Jerusalem ah he kumhal duela ka ming ka khueh ni.
The carved figure of Asherah that he had made, he placed it in the house of Yahweh. It was about this house that Yahweh had spoken to David and Solomon his son; he had said: “It is in this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, that I will put my name forever.
8 A cungkuem dongah amih ka uen bangla saii ham a ngaithuen uh mak atah a napa rhoek taengah ka paek khohmuen lamloh Israel kah khokan rhaehba sak ham ka khoep mahpawh. Te dongah a cungkuem dongkah olkhueng te ka sal Moses loh amih a uen coeng,” a ti nah.
I will not cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land that I gave to their ancestors, if they will only be careful to obey all that I have commanded them, and to follow all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.”
9 Tedae a ngai uh pawt dongah Manasseh loh amih kho a hmang sak. Te dongah BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh lamkah a milh sak namtom rhoek lakah boethae a saii.
But the people did not listen, and Manasseh led them to do evil even more than the nations that Yahweh had destroyed before the people of Israel.
10 BOEIPA loh a sal, tonghma rhoek kut ah a thui tih,
So Yahweh spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,
11 “Judah manghai Manasseh loh tueilaehkoi a saii vanbangla te rhoek te a mikhmuh kah Amori rhoek loh a saii boeih lakah khaw thae. Te dongah Judah khaw a mueirhol neh a tholh sak.
“Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these disgusting things, and has acted wickedly more than all that the Amorites who were before him did, and has also made Judah sin with his idols,
12 Te dongah ni Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh he he a thui. Kai loh Jerusalem neh Judah soah boethae ka khuen pah coeng. Te te aka ya la aka ya boeih tah a hna rhoi te umya uh bitni.
therefore Yahweh, the God of Israel, says this: Look, I am about to bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that whoever hears of it, both his ears will tingle.
13 Jerusalem soah Samaria rhilam neh Ahab im kah mikrhael ka toe ni. Bael a huih, a huih tih a hmai long a bueng bangla Jerusalem te ka huih ni.
I will stretch over Jerusalem the measuring line used against Samaria, and the plumb line used against the house of Ahab; I will wipe Jerusalem clean, as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
14 Ka rho kah a meet te ka phap vetih amih te a thunkha kut ah ka paek ni. Te vaengah a thunkha cungkuem taengah maeh neh maehbuem la om uh ni.
I will throw off the remnant of my inheritance and give them into the hand of their enemies. They will become victims and plunder for all their enemies,
15 Ka mikhmuh ah boethae a saii uh tih a napa rhoek Egypt lamkah a caeh uh khohnin lamloh tahae khohnin hil kai aka veet la om uh,” a ti nah.
because they have done what is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their ancestors came out of Egypt, to this day.”
16 Ommongsitoe thii khaw Manasseh loh muep a long sak aih. Jerusalem a hmoi lamloh a hmoi hil a li sak. Amah kah tholhnah bueng kolla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae saii hamla Judah te a tholh sak.
Moreover, Manasseh shed much innocent blood, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another with death. This was in addition to the sin by which he made Judah to sin, when they did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh.
17 Manasseh kah ol noi neh a cungkuem a saii te khaw, a tholhnah neh a tholh te khaw, Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
As for the other matters concerning Manasseh, all that he did, and the sin that he committed, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
18 Manasseh te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah amah im kah dum, Uzzah dum ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Amon te anih yueng la manghai.
Manasseh slept with his ancestors and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza. Amon his son became king in his place.
19 Amon he kum kul kum nit a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum nit manghai. A manu ming tah Jotbah lamkah Haruz canu Meshullemeth ni.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Meshullemeth; she was the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
20 A napa Manasseh kah a saii bangla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thae a saii bal.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as Manasseh his father had done.
21 A napa kah a pongpa bangla longpuei cungkuem ah pongpa. A napa kah thothueng bangla mueirhol taengah tho a thueng tih te rhoek taengah bakop.
Amon followed in all the way that his father had walked in and worshiped the idols that his father worshiped, and bowed down to them.
22 A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA te a hnoo tih BOEIPA kah longpuei ah pongpa pawh.
He abandoned Yahweh, the God of his fathers, and did not walk in the way of Yahweh.
23 Tedae anih te Amon sal rhoek loh a taeng tih manghai te amah im ah a duek sak uh.
The servants of Amon conspired against him and put the king to death in his own house.
24 Te dongah Amon manghai aka taeng boeih te khohmuen pilnam loh a ngawn. Te phoeiah tah khohmuen pilnam loh a capa Josiah te anih yueng la a manghai sak uh.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.
25 Amon kah ol noi neh a saii te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
As for the other matters concerning Amon that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
26 Anih te Uzzah dum kah amah phuel ah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Josiah te anih yueng la manghai.
The people buried him in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and Josiah his son became king in his place.
