2 Khokhuen 33
1 Manasseh te a manghai vaengah kum hlai nit lo ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah sawmnga neh kum nga manghai.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
2 BOEIPA loh Israel ca mikhmuh lamkah a haek tangtae namtom kah tueilaehkoi bangla BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii.
But he did evil before the Lord, in accord with all the abominations of the nations which the Lord overturned before the sons of Israel.
3 Mael tih a napa Hezekiah loh a palet tangtae hmuensang te a thoh. Baal hamla hmueihtuk a suem tih Asherah a saii. Vaan caempuei boeih taengah bakop tih te rhoek taengah tho a thueng.
And turning away, he repaired the high places, which had been demolished by his father, Hezekiah. And he constructed altars to the Baals, and made sacred groves. And he adored the entire army of heaven, and he served them.
4 BOEIPA loh, “Ka ming he Jerusalem ah kumhal duela om ni,” a ti lalah BOEIPA im khuiah hmueihtuk a suem.
Also, he built altars in the house of the Lord, about which the Lord had said, “My name shall be in Jerusalem forever.”
5 BOEIPA im vongup rhoi ah vaan caempuei cungkuem ham hmueihtuk a suem.
But he built these for the entire army of heaven, in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
6 Anih loh a ca rhoek te kolrhawk kah hmai khuila a kat sak. Kutyaek a sawt, lung a sawt, hlang a bi, rhaitonghma neh hnam a saii. Amah veet hamla BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii khaw khawk.
And he caused his sons to pass through fire in the Valley of the son of Hinnom. He observed dreams, followed divinations, served the occult arts, had with him magicians and enchanters, and worked many evils before the Lord, so that he provoked him.
7 Mueimae mueithuk a saii te Pathen im ah a khueh. Te te Pathen loh David taeng neh a capa Solomon taengah khaw, “Israel koca boeih lamloh ka coelh, he im khui neh Jerusalem khuiah tah kumhal duela ka ming te ka khueh eh.
Also, he set up a graven image and molten statue in the house of God, about which God said to David, and to his son Solomon: “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, I will place my name forever.
8 Tedae Israel kah kho te na pa rhoek taengah ka thoh khohmuen dong lamloh nong sak ham ka khoep mahpawh. Moses kut lamloh amih ka uen bangla olkhueng neh oltlueh neh laitloeknah boeih te a cungkuem la vai ham a ngaithuen mak atah,” a ti.
And I will not cause the foot of Israel to be moved from the land which I delivered to their fathers. Yet this is so, only if they will take care to do what I have instructed them, by the hand of Moses, with the entire law and the ceremonies and the judgments.”
9 Tedae Manasseh loh namtom rhoek lakah boethae saii ham Judah neh Jerusalem khosa rhoek te kho a hmang sak. Te rhoek te BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh lamkah a mitmoeng sak coeng dae ta.
And so Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil, more so than all the nations which the Lord had overturned before the face of the sons of Israel.
10 BOEIPA loh Manasseh taeng neh a pilnam taengah a thui dae hnatung uh pawh.
And the Lord spoke to him and to his people, but they were not willing to pay attention.
11 Te dongah BOEIPA loh Assyria manghai kah caempuei mangpa rhoek te amih taengla a thak. Manasseh te mutlo hling neh a tuuk uh tih rhohum neh a khih uh phoeiah Babylon la a khuen uh.
Therefore, he led over them the leaders of the army of the king of the Assyrians. And they captured Manasseh, and they led him, bound with chains and fetters, to Babylon.
12 A taengah puen a cak vaengah tah a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah nue coeng tih a napa rhoek kah Pathen mikhmuh ah muep kunyun.
And after this, being in great anguish, he prayed to the Lord his God. And he did penance greatly before the God of his fathers.
13 Tedae a taengla a thangthui vaengah tah anih te a rhoi tih a lungmacil te a hnatun pah. Te dongah amah khaw a ram te Jerusalem la mael. Te vaengah Manasseh loh Yahweh amah he Pathen ni tila a ming.
And he petitioned and begged him intently. And he heeded his prayer, and led him back to Jerusalem, into his kingdom. And Manasseh realized that the Lord himself was God.
14 A hnukah tah David khopuei rhamvoel kah vongtung te khotlak kah Gihon soklong ah a sak tih nga vongka a pha. Ophel te a tuung tih muep a sang sak. Judah kah vong cak khopuei boeih ah tatthai mangpa rhoek a khueh.
After these things, he built a wall outside the City of David, to the west of Gihon, at the steep valley, from the entrance to the fish gate, circling around as far as Ophel. And he raised it up greatly. And he appointed leaders of the army in all the fortified cities of Judah.
15 Kholong pathen rhoek neh a mueimae te khaw BOEIPA im lamloh a khoe tih, BOEIPA im tlang neh Jerusalem kah a sak hmueihtuk boeih khaw khopuei rhamvoel la a voeih.
And he took away the foreign gods, and the idol from the house of the Lord, and also the altars which he had made on the mount of the house of the Lord and in Jerusalem. And he cast all these things outside the city.
16 BOEIPA kah hmueihtuk te cikngae la a sak bal tih a soah rhoepnah neh uemonah hmueih te a nawn. Judah taengah khaw Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengah thothueng hamla a thui pah.
Then he repaired the altar of the Lord, and he immolated upon it victims, and peace offerings, with praise. And he instructed Judah to serve the Lord, the God of Israel.
17 Tedae pilnam te hmuensang ah a nawn pueng tih a Pathen BOEIPA te khaw a bawkuh.
Yet still the people were immolating on the high places, to the Lord their God.
18 Manasseh kah ol noi khaw, a Pathen taengah a thangthuinah khaw, Israel Pathen BOEIPA ming neh anih taengah aka thui khohmu rhoek kah ol khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah olka khuiah om coeng ke.
But the rest of the deeds of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and also the words of the seers who were speaking to him in the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, are contained in the words of the kings of Israel.
19 A thangthuinah neh a thangthui khaw, a tholhnah neh a boekoeknah boeih khaw, a soah hmuensang a sak nah hmuen te khaw, Asherah neh mueidaep a hol tih a hmai ah a kunyun khaw, Hozai kah olka khuiah a daek uh coeng ke.
Also, his prayer and its heeding, and all his sins and contempt, and the sites on which he built high places and made sacred groves and statues, before he repented, have been written in the words of Hozai.
20 Manasseh te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah anih te amah im ah a up uh. Te phoeiah tah a capa Amon te anih yueng la manghai.
Then Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And his son, Amon, reigned in his place.
21 Amon a manghai vaengah kum kul kum nit lo ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah kum nit manghai.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem.
22 A napa Manasseh kah a saii bangla BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii. A napa Manasseh kah a saii mueidaep cungkuem taengah Amon loh a nawn tih tho a thueng.
And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, just as his father Manasseh had done. And he immolated to all the idols that Manasseh had fabricated, and he served them.
23 A napa Manasseh kah a kunyun bangla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a kunyun moenih. Amon amah lat loh dumlai a pung sak.
But he did not turn his face to the Lord, as his father Manasseh had turned himself. And he sinned much more grievously.
24 Te vaengah anih te a sal rhoek loh a taeng uh tih amah im ah a duek sakuh.
And when his servants had conspired against him, they killed him in his own house.
25 Te dongah manghai Amon 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.
But the rest of the multitude of the people, having slain those who had struck down Amon, appointed his son, Josiah, as king in his place.
