2 Manghai 1
1 Ahab a dueknah hnukah Moab loh Israel taengah boe a koek.
Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.
2 Ahaziah tah a tloh neh Samaria ah amah imhman kah sahamlong taengah yalh. Te dongah puencawn a tueih tih amih te, “Cet uh lamtah, Ekron pathen Baalzebub te dawt uh lah, he tlohtat lamloh ka hing khaming,” a ti nah.
Then Ahaziah fell down through the lattice in his upper chamber in Samaria, and was injured. So he sent for messengers and said to them, “Go, ask Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover from this injury.”
3 Tedae BOEIPA kah puencawn loh Tishbi Elijah te, “Thoo, Samaria manghai kah puencawn rhoek doe hamla cet laeh. Amih te, 'Israel khuiah Pathen om pawt tih nim Ekron pathen Baalzebub te toem hamla na caeh uh?'
But the angel of Yahweh said to Elijah the Tishbite, “Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and ask them, 'Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to consult with Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?
4 Te dongah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Baiphaih na paan bangla te lamloh na suntla mahpawh, na duek rhoe na duek ni, 'ti nah,” a ti nah tih Elijah te cet.
Therefore Yahweh says, “You will not come down from the bed to where you have gone up; instead, you will certainly die.”'” Then Elijah left.
5 Puencawn rhoek a taengla a mael uh vaengah tah amih te, “Balae tih na mael uh?” a ti nah.
When the messengers returned to Ahaziah, he said to them, “Why have you returned?”
6 Te dongah amah te, “Kaimih doe ham hlang ha pawk tih kaimih taengah, 'Cet uh, nangmih aka tueih manghai taengla mael uh lamtah BOEIPA loh a thui he anih taengah thui pah. Israel ah Pathen om pawt tih nim, Ekron pathen Baalzebub te dawt ham nang n'tueih. Te dongah baiphaih na paan vanbangla te lamloh na suntla mahpawh, na duek rhoe na duek ni, ' a ti,” a ti nah.
They said to him, “A man came to meet us who said to us, 'Go back to the king who sent you, and say to him, “Yahweh says this: 'Is it because there is no God in Israel that you sent men to consult with Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not come down from the bed to which you have gone up; instead, you will certainly die.'”'”
7 Te vaengah amih te, “Nangmih doe ham ha pawk tih nangmih taengah he ol aka thui hlang kah laitloeknah tah metlam a om?” a ti nah.
Ahaziah said to his messengers, “What sort of man was he, the one who came up to meet you and said these words to you?”
8 Manghai taengah, “Hlang te a mul thah tih, a cinghen ah maehpho hailaem a vaep,” a ti nah. Te vaengah, “Tishbi Elijah ni te,” a ti nah.
They answered him, “He wore a garment made of hair and had a leather belt wrapped around his waist.” So the king replied, “That is Elijah the Tishbite.”
9 Te phoeiah Elijah taengla sawmnga kah mangpa neh a hlang sawmnga te a tueih. Elijah te a paan vaengah tah tlang lu ah tarha ana ngol pah tih, “Pathen kah hlang aw manghai loh, 'Ha suntla laeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
Then the king sent a captain with fifty soldiers to Elijah. The captain went up to Elijah where he was sitting on the top of a hill. The captain spoke to him, “You, man of God, the king has said, 'Come down.'”
10 Elijah loh sawmnga mangpa te a doo tih, “Kai he Pathen kah hlang coeng atah vaan lamkah hmai ha suntla saeh lamtah nang neh nang kah hlang sawmnga te n'hlawp saeh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah vaan lamkah hmai ha suntla tih anih neh a hlang sawmnga te a hlawp.
Elijah answered and said to the captain, “If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” Then fire came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty men.
11 Te phoeiah mael tih a tloe sawmnga mangpa neh a hlang sawmnga te Elijah taengla a tueih. A doo vaengah Elijah te, “Pathen kah hlang aw, manghai loh he ni a thui, hat suntla laeh,” a ti nah.
Again King Ahaziah sent to Elijah another captain with fifty soldiers. This captain also said to Elijah, “You, man of God, the king says, 'Come down quickly.'”
12 Elijah loh a doo tih amih te, “Kai he Pathen kah hlang atah vaan lamkah hmai ha suntla saeh lamtah namah neh na hlang sawmnga te n'hlawp saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Pathen kah hmai te vaan lamkah suntla tih anih neh a hlang sawmnga te a hlawp.
Elijah answered and said to them, “If I am a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” Again the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed him and his fifty men.
13 Mael tih a pathum ah sawmnga kah mangpa te a hlang sawmnga neh a tueih tih cet. A pathum kah sawmnga mangpa tah a pha neh Elijah hmai ah a khuklu a cungkueng pah. Te phoeiah anih te a hloep tih a taengah, “Pathen kah hlang aw ka hinglu neh na mikhmuh kah na sal sawmnga kah hinglu he kueinah mai.
Yet again the king sent a third group of fifty warriors. This captain went up, fell on his knees before Elijah, and implored him and said to him, “You, man of God, I ask you, let my life and the life of these fifty servants of yours be precious in your sight.
14 Vaan lamkah hmai suntla tih lamhma kah sawmnga mangpa rhoi neh a hlang sawmnga te a hlawp coeng ne. Tedae na mikhmuh ah ka hinglu he kueinah mai,” a ti nah.
Indeed, fire came down from heaven and consumed the first two captains with their men, but now let my life be precious in your sight.”
15 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh Elijah te, “A taengah suntla lamtah a mikhmuh ah rhih boeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah thoo tih anih neh manghai taengla cet.
The angel of Yahweh said to Elijah, “Go down with him. Do not be afraid of him.” So Elijah arose and went down with him to the king.
16 Te phoeiah manghai te, “BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Amah ol te dawt hamla Israel ah Pathen om voel pawt tih nim Ekron pathen Baalzebub dawt hamla puencawn na tueih? Te dongah baiphaih na paan bangla te lamloh na suntla mahpawh, na duek rhoe na duek ni,” a ti nah.
Later Elijah said to Ahaziah, “This is what Yahweh says, 'You have sent messengers to consult with Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron. Is it because there is no God in Israel from whom you can ask for information? So now, you will not come down from the bed where you have gone up; you will certainly die.'”
17 Te dongah Elijah loh a thui BOEIPA ol bangla duek tih Jehoram te anih yueng la manghai.
So King Ahaziah died according to the word of Yahweh that Elijah had spoken. Joram began to reign in his place, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, because Ahaziah had no son.
18 Ahaziah kah ol noi neh a saii te Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
As for the other matters concerning Ahaziah, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
