Te phoeiah Benjamin, Ephraim khui neh Manasseh hil a khah uh. Te phoeiah Israel ca boeih te a khohut amamih khopuei la rhip mael uh.
And when all these things were finished, all Israel that were found in the cities of Juda went out, and broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the groves, and tore down the high places and the altars out of all Judea and Benjamin, also of Ephraim and Manasse, till they made an end: and all Israel returned, every one to his inheritance, and to their cities.
2 Hezekiah loh khosoih rhoek neh Levi kah boelhnah te a khueh. Amih kah boelnah bangla hlang te amah kah thothuengnah tarhing ah khosoih la, Levi la om. Te long te hmueihhlutnah ham neh rhoepnah ham khaw, thohtat ham khaw, BOEIPA rhaehhmuen vongka ah aka thangthen ham neh aka uem ham khaw a hut nah.
And Ezekias appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites, and the courses of each one according to his ministry, to the priests and to the Levites, for the whole burnt offering, and for the peace-offering, and to praise, and to give thanks, and to minister in the gates, [and] in the courts of the house of the Lord.
3 BOEIPA olkhueng khuikah a daek bangla manghai loh a khuehtawn te hmueihhlutnah ham khaw, hlaem neh mincang kah hmueihhlutnah ham khaw, Sabbath vaengkah neh hlasae vaengkah hmueihhlutnah, khoning vaengkah buham la a paek.
And the king's proportion out of his substance [was appointed] for the whole burnt offerings, the morning and the evening one, and the whole burnt offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the feasts that were ordered in the law of the Lord.
4 Khosoih neh Levi kah buham a paek tih BOEIPA olkhueng dongah thaa a huel uh ham te pilnam taeng neh Jerusalem khosa rhoek taengah a thui pah.
And they told the people who lived in Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be strong in the ministry of the house of the Lord.
5 Ol te a haeh coeng dongah Israel ca rhoek loh cangpai thaihcuek, misur thai, situi, khoitui neh khohmuen vueithaih cungkuem te a kum sak uh tih parha pakhat boeih khaw a cungkuem la a khuen uh.
And as he gave the command, Israel brought abundantly first fruits of corn, and wine, and oil, and honey, and every fruit of the field: and the children of Israel and Juda brought tithes of everything abundantly.
6 Judah khopuei rhoek ah kho aka sa Amih Israel ca neh Judah rhoek long khaw saelhung boiva parha pakhat neh a Pathen BOEIPA taengah a ciim hnocim parha pakhat khaw a khuen uh tih a som som la a paek uh.
And they that lived in the cities of Juda themselves also brought tithes of calves and sheep, and tithes of goats, and consecrated them to the Lord their God, and they brought them and laid them in heaps.
7 A hla thum dongah a hlom la a hmoek uh te a tong uh tih a hla rhih dongah a coeng uh.
In the third month the heaps began to be piled, and in the seventh month they were finished.
8 Hezekiah neh mangpa rhoek a pawk uh tih a hlom te a hmuh vaengah BOEIPA neh a pilnam Israel te a uem uh.
And Ezekias and the princes came and saw the heaps, and blessed the Lord, and his people Israel.
9 Hezekiah loh Khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek taengah a hlom kawng te a dawt.
Then Ezekias enquired of the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
10 Te dongah anih te Zadok imkhui lamkah khosoih boeilu Azariah loh a doo tih, “Khosaa te BOEIPA im la pawk puei ham a tong uh lamlong tah BOEIPA loh a pilnam yoethen a paek tih caak khaw a cung phoeiah cangpai la cuem. Te dongah he tlam he muep coih,” a ti nah.
And Azarias the priest, the chief over the house of Sadoc, spoke to him, and said, From the time that the first fruits began to be brought into the house of the Lord, we have eaten and drunk, and left even abundantly; for the Lord has blessed his people, and we have left to this amount.
11 Te dongah Hezekiah loh BOEIPA im khuikah imkhan te rhoekbah hamla a uen tih a rhoekbah uh.
And Ezekias told them yet farther to prepare chambers for the house of the Lord; and they prepared [them],
12 Te phoeiah khosaa neh parha pakhat khaw, hnocim khaw uepomnah neh a khuen uh. Te te rhaengsang Levi Kohnaniah, a mana hnukthoi Shimei loh a khoem.
and they brought there the first fruits and the tithes faithfully: and Chonenias the Levite was superintendent over them, and Semei his brother was next.
13 Te vaengah Jehiel neh Azaziah, Nahath neh Asahel, Jerimoth neh Jozabad, Eliel neh Ismakhiah, Mahath neh Benaiah tah Kohnaniah kut hmuiah hlangtawt la om uh. Kohnaniah neh a mana Shimei he tah manghai Hezekiah neh Pathen im kah rhaengsang Azariah kah hlangboel ni.
and Jeiel, and Ozias, and Naeth, and Asael, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Samachia, and Maath, and Banaias, and his sons, were appointed by Chonenias and Semei his brother, as Ezekias the king, and Azarias who was over the house of the Lord commanded.
14 Khocuk kah thoh tawt, Levi Imnah capa Kore loh BOEIPA kah khosaa la a paek ham Pathen kah kothoh neh a cim a cim te a khoem.
And Core, the [son] of Jemna the Levite, the porter eastward, [was] over the gifts, to distribute the first fruits of the Lord, and the most holy things,
15 Anih kut hmuikah Eden neh Miniamin, Jeshua neh Shemaiah, Amariah neh Shekaniah loh khosoih khopuei kah a pacaboeina te tanoe kangham la a boelnah neh uepomnah la a tael.
by the hand of Odom, and Benjamin, and Jesus, and Semei, and Amarias, and Sechonias, by the hand of the priests faithfully, to give to their brethren according to the courses, as well to great as small;
16 Amih te tongpa ca kum thum neh a so hang khaw, a hnin, hnin kah bitat ham khaw, amih kah kueknah bangla amamih kah thothuengnah ham khaw, a boelnah neh BOEIPA im la aka kun boeih a khuui la om.
besides the increase of males from three years old and upward, to every one entering into the house of the Lord, [a portion] according to a daily rate, for service in the daily courses of their order.
17 Khosoih rhoek khaw a napa imko neh, Levi rhoek khaw tongpa kum kul lamloh a so hang tah amamih kah a kueknah bangla amamih a boelnah neh a khuui om van.
This [is] the distribution of the priests according to the houses of their families; and the Levites in their daily courses from twenty years old and upward [were] in [their] order,
18 Amih hlangping boeih kah camoe boeih khaw, a yuu rhoek khaw, a capa rhoek khaw, a canu rhoek khaw, amamih kah uepomnah neh a khuui la om tih hmuencim ah ciim uh.
to assign stations for all the increase of their sons and their daughters, for the whole number: for they faithfully sanctified the holy place.
19 Khosoih Aaron koca rhoek ham khaw amamih kah khopuei, khocaak khohmuen ah, khopuei, khopuei boeih ah a ming neh hlang mingpha uh. Khosoih tongpa boeih neh Levi kah a khuui boeih te maehvae a paek uh.
As for the sons of Aaron that executed the priests' office, —even those from their cities the men in each several city who were named expressly, —[were appointed] to give a portion to every male amongst the priests, and to every one reckoned amongst the Levites.
20 Hezekiah loh Judah pum ah he bang a saii vaengah a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah uepomnah neh a thuem neh a then ni a saii.
And Ezekias did so through all Juda, and did that which was good and right before the Lord his God.
21 Bitat boeih dongah khaw Pathen im kah thothuengnah neh a tong tih olkhueng ham neh olpaek ham khaw a Pathen te a thinko boeih neh a toem dongah a saii vaengah thaihtak van.
And in every work which he began in service in the house of the Lord, and in the law, and in the ordinances, he sought his God with all his soul, and wrought, and prospered.
