1 Manghai 15

1 Nebat capa Jeroboam manghai kah kum hlai rhet vaengah Judah ah Abijam manghai.

Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, Abijam became king over Judah.

2 Jerusalem ah kum thum manghai tih a manu ming tah Absalom canu Maakah ni.

For three years he was king in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.

3 A mikhmuh ah a saii pah a napa kah tholhnah cungkuem dongah pongpa tih a napa David kah thinko bangla a Pathen BOEIPA taengah a thinko rhuemtuet la a om moenih.

And he did the same sins which his father had done before him: his heart was not completely true to the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.

4 Tedae David kongah ni a Pathen BOEIPA loh anih te Jerusalem ah hmaithoi a paek. Anih hnukah a capa te a phoe sak tih Jerusalem te a pai sak.

But because of David, the Lord gave him a light in Jerusalem, making his sons king after him, so that Jerusalem might be safe;

5 David tah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem he a saii tih anih a uen boeih te a phaelh moenih. A hing tue khuiah Khitti Uriah kah lai bueng ni lai dawk a om.

Because David did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and never in all his life went against his orders, but only in the question of Uriah the Hittite.

6 Rehoboam laklo neh Jeroboam laklo ah he a hing tue khuiah caemtloek om.

7 Abijam kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek moenih a? Abijam laklo neh Jeroboam laklo ah caemtloek ni aka om.

Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

8 Abijam te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah anih te David khopuei ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Asa he anih yueng la manghai.

Then Abijam went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David: and Asa his son became king in his place.

9 Israel manghai Jeroboam kah a kum kul dongah Judah manghai Asa he manghai.

In the twentieth year that Jeroboam was king of Israel, Asa became king over Judah.

10 Anih te Jerusalem ah sawmli kum khat manghai. A manu ming tah Absalom canu Maakah ni.

And he was king for forty-one years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.

11 Asa tah a napa David bangla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem ni a saii.

Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as David his father did.

12 Te dongah hlanghalh rhoek te khohmuen lamloh a haek tih a napa rhoek loh a saii mueirhol te boeih a khoe.

Those used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods he sent out of the country, and he took away all the images which his fathers had made.

13 A manu Maakah pataeng Asherah ham rhobuk a saii dongah manghainu lamloh a khoe. A rhobuk te Asa loh a phae pah tih Kidron soklong ah a hoeh.

And he would not let Maacah his mother be queen, because she had made a disgusting image for Asherah; and Asa had the image cut down and burned by the stream Kidron.

14 Hmuensang te khoe uh sitoe pawt cakhaw amah tue khuiah tah Asa kah thinko he BOEIPA taengah rhuemtuet la om.

The high places, however, were not taken away: but still the heart of Asa was true to the Lord all his life.

15 A napa kah hnocim neh amah kah hnocim khaw, cak neh, sui neh hnopai khaw BOEIPA im kah hnocim la a khuen.

He took into the house of the Lord all the things which his father had made holy, and those which he himself had made holy, silver and gold and vessels.

16 Amah tue khuiah tah Asa laklo neh Israel manghai Baasha laklo ah caemtloek om.

Now there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.

17 Israel manghai Baasha loh Judah te a paan tih Ramah te a tuung. Judah manghai Asa taengah aka kun ham neh aka vuenva ham khaw pae pawh.

And Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah, so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.

18 Asa loh BOEIPA im thakvoh khuiah aka sueng cak neh sui boeih, manghai im kah manghai thakvoh khaw a loh tih a sal rhoek kut ah a tloeng. Te phoeiah manghai Asa loh Damasku ah kho aka sa Aram manghai, Hezion koca Tabrimmon capa Benhadad taengla a thak.

Then Asa took all the silver and gold which was still stored in the Lord's house, and in the king's house, and sent them, in the care of his servants, to Ben-hadad, son of Tabrimmon, son of Rezon, king of Aram, at Damascus, saying,

19 Te vaengah, “Kamah laklo neh namah lako ah, a pa laklo neh na pa laklo kah paipi om tih nang taengah kapbaih la cak neh sui he kam pat ne. Cet lamtah Israel manghai Baasha taengkah na paipi te phae mai. Te vaengah kai taeng lamloh nong bitni,” a ti nah.

Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you an offering of silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me.

20 Benhadad loh manghai Asa ol te a ngai pah. Te dongah amah taengkah mangpa tatthai rhoek te Israel khopuei rhoek ah a tueih tih Ijon, Dan, Abelbethmaakah neh Kinnereth boeih, Naphtali khohmuen boeih te a ngawn.

So Ben-hadad did as King Asa said, and sent the captains of his armies against the towns of Israel, attacking Ijon and Dan and Abel-beth-maacah, and all Chinneroth as far as all the land of Naphtali.

21 Baasha loh a yaak van neh Ramah a sak te a toeng tih Tirzah la kho a sak.

And Baasha, hearing of it, put a stop to the building of Ramah, and was living in Tirzah.

22 Asa manghai loh Judah pum te a yaak sak vaengah ommongsitoe om voel pawh. Te dongah Baasha loh Ramah a sak nah lungto neh thing te a puen uh. Te nen te manghai Asa loh Benjamin Geba neh Mizpah te a sak.

Then King Asa got all Judah together, making every man come; and they took away the stones and the wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and King Asa made use of them for building Geba in the land of Benjamin, and Mizpah.

23 Asa kah ol noi boeih neh a thayung thamal boeih, a saii boeih neh a sak khopuei rhoek te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a? Tedae a patong tue ah a kho a tloh pah.

Now the rest of the acts of Asa, and his power, and all he did, and the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? But when he was old he had a disease of the feet.

24 Asa te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah a napa David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Jehoshaphat te anih yueng la manghai.

So Asa went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.

25 Judah manghai Asa kah a kum bae dongah Jeroboam capa Nadab he Israel soah manghai tih Israel soah kum nit manghai.

Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, became king over Israel in the second year that Asa was king of Judah; and he was king of Israel for two years.

26 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii tih a napa kah longpuei ah pongpa. Anih kah tholhnah khuiah Israel te a tholh sak.

He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the evil ways of his father, and the sin which he did and made Israel do.

27 Anih te Issakhar imkhui kah Ahijah capa Baasha loh a ven. Te dongah Baasha loh Nadab neh Gibbethon aka dum Israel boeih te Philisti kah Gibbethon ah a ngawn.

And Baasha, the son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, made a secret design against him, attacking him at Gibbethon, a town of the Philistines; for Nadab and the armies of Israel were making war on Gibbethon.

28 Judah manghai Asa kah a kum thum dongah Baasha loh Nadab te a duek sak tih Nadab yueng la manghai.

In the third year of the rule of Asa, king of Judah, Baasha put him to death, and became king in his place.

29 A manghai van neh Jeroboam imkhui te boeih a ngawn tih Jeroboam hiil la aka hiil boeih te hlun pawh. A sal Shiloh Ahijah kut ah a thui BOEIPA ol bangla Nadab te a mit sak.

And straight away when he became king, he sent destruction on all the offspring of Jeroboam; there was not one living person of all the family of Jeroboam whom he did not put to death, so the word of the Lord, which he said by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite, came about;

30 Jeroboam kah tholhnah tah tholh coeng tih Israel te khaw a tholh sak. A konoinah lamloh Israel Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.

Because of the sins which Jeroboam did and made Israel do, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath.

31 Nadab kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te khaw Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?

Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?

32 Amah tue khuiah tah Asa laklo neh Israel manghai Baasha laklo ah caemtloek puet om.

And there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.

33 Judah manghai Asa kah a kum thum dongah Ahijah capa Baasha he Israel boeih soah manghai van tih Tirzah ah kum kul kum li om.

In the third year of the rule of Asa, king of Judah, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, became king over all Israel in Tirzah, and was king for twenty-four years.

34 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii tih Jeroboam kah longpuei ah pongpa. Anih kah tholhnah khuiah Israel te a tholh sak.

He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the evil ways of Jeroboam and the sin which he made Israel do.
