1 Anih tue vaengah te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh a muk. Te dongah Jehoiakim tah sal la kum thum om coeng dae mael tih Nebukhadnezzar te a tloelh.

In his days came up Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and Jehoyakim became his servant for three years: and then he returned and rebelled against him.

And the Lord sent against him predatory bands of the Chaldeans, and predatory bands of the Syrians, and predatory bands of the Moabites, and predatory bands of the children of 'Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by means of his servants the prophets.

3 Manasseh kah tholhnah cungkuem a saii dongah BOEIPA ol bangla a mikhmuh lamloh khoe ham Judah taengah rhep thoeng coeng.

But only at the order of the Lord came this upon Judah, to remove the same out of his sight, for the sins of Menasseh, in accordance with all that he had done;

4 Ommongsitoe thii khaw a long sak tih Jerusalem te ommongsitoe thii loh a li. Te dongah BOEIPA loh khodawkngai ham huem pawh.

And also for the innocent blood that he had shed; for he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; wherefore the Lord would not pardon.

5 Jehoiakim kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoyakim, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.

6 Jehoiakim te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah a capa Jehoiakhin te anih yueng la manghai.

And Jehoyakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoyachin his son became king in his stead.

7 Te vaengah Egypt manghai taengah aka om boeih te Egypt soklong lamloh Perath tuiva hil te Babylon manghai loh a loh pah coeng dongah Egypt manghai loh a khohmuen lamkah mop hamla koep khoep voel pawh.

And the king of Egypt came no more again out of his land; for the king of Babylon had taken from the brook of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that had pertained to the king of Egypt.

8 Jehoiakhin he kum hlai rhet a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah hla thum manghai. A manu ming tah Jerusalem lamkah Elnathan canu Nehushta ni.

Eighteen years old was Jehoyachin when he became king, and three months did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Nechushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.

9 A napa rhoek kah a saii bang boeih la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii bal.

And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, all just as that his father had done.

10 Te vaeng tue ah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kah sal rhoek te Jerusalem la cet, cet uh tih khopuei te vongup ah a om sak.

At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was put in a state of siege.

11 Te dongah khopuei la Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar a pawk vaengah tah a sal rhoek loh khopuei te ana dum uh coeng.

And Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon came against the city, while his servants were besieging it.

And Jehoyachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his court-officers: and the king of Babylon took him [captive] in the eighth year of his reign.

And he carried out thence all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon the king of Israel had made in the temple of the Lord, as the Lord had spoken.

14 Jerusalem boeih neh mangpa boeih te khaw a poelyoe tih tatthai hlangrhalh rhoek thawng rha boeih a poelyoe. Khohmuen pilnam kah khodaeng bueng phoeiah tah kutthai neh thidae khaw boeih paih pawh.

And he led away as exiles all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valor, ten thousand exiles, and all the craftsmen and locksmiths: there was none left, save the poorest sort of the people of the land.

15 Te vaengah Jehoiakhin te khaw, manghai manu khaw, manghai yuu rhoek khaw, a imkhoem rhoek neh khohmuen kah tutal hlang ang rhoek khaw, Babylon la a poelyoe tih Jerusalem lamloh Babylon ah vangsawn la a khuen.

And he led away Jehoyachin as exile to Babylon; and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his court-officers, and the mighty men of the land, he led into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon.

16 Te vaengah tatthai hlang boeih thawng rhih, kutthai neh thidae thawng khat, caemtloek aka noeng hlangrhalh boeih khaw Babylon manghai loh Babylon ah vangsawn la a khuen.

And all the men of might, seven thousand [in number], and the craftsmen and the locksmiths a thousand [in number], all strong men, apt for war; and the king of Babylon brought them into exile to Babylon.

17 Babylon manghai loh Jehoiakhin yueng la a napanoe Mattaniah a manghai sak tih a ming te Zedekiah la a hoi pah.

And the king of Babylon made Mattanyah his uncle king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.

18 Zedekiah he kum kul kum khat a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai khat manghai. A manu ming Hamutal tah Libnah lamkah Jeremiah canu Hamutal ni.

Twenty and one years old was Zedekiah when he became king, and eleven years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Chamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

19 Anih khaw Jehoiakim kah a saii bang boeih la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.

And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, all just as Jehoyakim had done.

20 Amih te a mikhmuh lamloh a voeih hil BOEIPA kah thintoek he Jerusalem taeng neh Judah taengah om pueng. Tedae Zedekiah loh Babylon manghai te a tloelh.

For through the anger of the Lord it occurred in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
