Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, became king of Israel in the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, son of Ahaziah, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for seventeen years.
2 BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii tih Israel aka tholh sak Nebat capa Jeroboam kah tholhnah dongah pongpa. Te lamlong te nong pawh.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and followed the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat, had made Israel commit; he did not end them.
3 Te dongah BOEIPA kah thintoek te Israel taengla sai tih anih tue khuiah tah amih te Aram manghai Hazael kut hmui neh Hazael capa Benhadad kut hmuiah a tloeng.
So the Lord was angry with Israel, and he repeatedly allowed them to be defeated by Hazael, king of Aram, and his son Ben-hadad.
4 Tedae Aram manghai loh amih a nen vanbangla Israel sokah nennah te a hmuh dongah Jehoahaz loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah nguek tih BOEIPA loh a ol a hnatun pah.
Jehoahaz asked the Lord for help, and the Lord responded to his request because he saw how badly the king of Aram was treating Israel.
5 BOEIPA loh Israel aka khang ham te a paek dongah Aram kut hmui lamloh loeih uh. Te dongah Israel ca khaw hlaem hlavai kah bangla a dap ah kho a sak uh.
The Lord gave Israel someone who would save them so they no longer were under Aramean rule. Then the Israelites were able to go back to living in safety as before.
6 Jeroboam im kah tholhnah lamloh nong uh pawh. A khuiah Israel aka tholh la aka tholh sak dongah te pongpa tih Asherah khaw Samaria ah pai.
Even so they did not end the sins that the house of Jeroboam had made Israel commit—they continued to follow them. The Asherah idol still stood in Samaria.

All that was left of Jehoahaz's army were fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand soldiers, for the king of Aram had destroyed the rest, turning them into dust like that when grain is threshed.
8 Jehoahaz kah ol noi neh a saii boeih neh a thayung thamal te khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
The rest of what happened in Jehoahaz's reign, all he did, and his great achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
9 Jehoahaz te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah anih te Samaria ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Joash te anih yueng la manghai.
Jehoahaz died and was buried in Samaria. His son Jehoash succeeded him as king.
10 Judah manghai Joash kah kum sawmthum kum rhih vaengah Jehoahaz capa Jehoash loh Samaria ah Israel te kum hlai rhuk a manghai thil.
Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, became king of Israel in Samaria in the thirty-seventh year of the reign of King Joash of Judah, and he reigned for sixteen years.
11 BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii tih Nebat capa Jeroboam kah tholhnah cungkuem lamloh a nong pawt dongah a khuiah Israel aka tholh sak te ni a vai.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and did not end all the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit—he continued to follow them.
12 Joash kah ol noi neh a saii boeih khaw, Judah manghai Amaziah a vathoh thil vaengkah a thayung thamal khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
The rest of what happened in Jehoash's reign, all he did, and his great achievements such as his war against Amaziah, king of Judah, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
13 Joash te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah anih kah ngolkhoel dongah Jeroboam ngol. Joash te Samaria ah a Israel manghai rhoek taengah a up.
Jehoash died, and Jeroboam sat on his throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

Elisha had become ill with a disease that would eventually kill him. Jehoash, king of Israel, went to visit him, and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and the horsemen of Israel!”
15 Te vaengah Elisha loh anih te, “Lii neh thaltang lo lah,” a ti nah dongah amah ham lii neh thaltang te a loh.
Elisha told him, “Find a bow and some arrows.” So Jehoash found a bow and some arrows.
16 Te phoeiah Israel manghai te, “Na kut te lii dongah tloeng,” a ti nah. A kut a tloeng van neh Elisha loh a kut te manghai kut soah a tloeng.
Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Pick up the bow.” So the king picked up the bow. Elisha placed his hands on the king's hands.
17 Te phoeiah, “Khothoeng bangbuet te ong lah,” a ti nah tih a ong. Te vaengah Elisha loh, “Kap lah,” a ti nah tih a kah. Te phoeiah, “BOEIPA kah loeihnah thaltang neh Aram lamloh loeihnah thaltang, Aram te a thok hil Aphek ah na ngawn pawn ni,” a ti nah.
“Open the east window,” he told him. So the king opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he fired an arrow. Then Elisha explained, “This is the Lord's victory arrow representing the arrow of victory over the Arameans. You will attack the Arameans in Aphek and finish them off.”
18 Te phoeiah, “Thaltang te lo lah,” a ti nah tih a loh. Tedae Israel manghai te, “Diklai taam thil,” a ti nah hatah voei thum a taam vaengah vik pai.
Then Elisha said, “Pick up the arrows!” So he picked them up. Elisha told the king of Israel, “Hit the ground with them!” He hit the ground three times, and then stopped.
19 Te dongah Pathen kah hlang te anih taengah a thintoek tih, “Voei nga voei rhuk khaw na taam vetih Aram te a thok hil na ngawn mako. Aram te voei thum bueng ni na ngawn thai pawn eh?,” a ti nah.
The man of God got angry with him, telling him, “You should have hit the ground five or six times. Then you would have attacked the Arameans until you had completely destroyed them. But now you will only attack the Arameans three times.”
20 Tedae Elisha duek tih a up uh nen tah a kum a thok ah Moab caem loh khohmuen te a muk.
Elisha died and was buried. Raiders from the country of Moab used to invade Israel every spring.
21 Te vaengkah amih hlang aka up rhoek om tih caem te lawt a hmuh. Te dongah hlang te Elisha kah phuel ah a voeih uh tih cet uh. Tedae hlang loh Elisha kah rhuh te a ben vaengah tah hing tih amah kho dongah koep pai.
On time some Israelites were burying a man when suddenly they saw some raiders coming, so they quickly threw the man into Elisha's tomb. As soon as he touched Elisha's bones, the man came back to life and stood up.
22 Jehoahaz tue khuiah tah Aram manghai Hazael loh Israel te a nen.
Hazael, king of Aram, caused problems for Israel through all Jehoahaz's reign.
23 Tedae BOEIPA loh amih te a rhen tih amih te a haidam. Abraham, Isaak neh Jakob taengkah a paipi kongah amih taengla mael. Amih phae ham a ngaih pawt dongah ni tahae duela a mikhmuh lamloh amih te a voeih pawh.
But the Lord graciously helped them and was kind to them. He looked after them because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Even to this day he's been unwilling to destroy them or to throw them out of his presence.
24 Aram manghai Hazael a duek van neh a capa Benhadad te anih yueng la manghai.
When Hazael, king of Aram, died, his son Ben-hadad succeeded him as king.
25 Te daengah Jehoahaz capa Jehoash te mael tih khopuei rhoek te Hazael capa Benhadad kut lamloh koep a lat. Te te a napa Jehoahaz kut lamloh a loh pah dongah Joash loh anih te caem neh voei thum a ngawn tih Israel khopuei rhoek te koep a lat.
Then Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, recovered from Ben-hadad son of Hazael, the towns that Hazael had captured from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three times, and so recaptured the Israelite towns.
