4 “Khosoih puei Hilkiah taengla cet lamtah BOEIPA im kah a khuen tangka te cum sak saeh. Te te cingkhaa aka tawt loh pilnam taeng lamkah ni a coi.

Goe vp to Hilkiah the high Priest, that hee may summe the siluer which is brought into the house of the Lord, which the keepers of the doore haue gathered of the people.

5 Te phoeiah BOEIPA im kah im bitat aka saii aka hung kut ah pae rhoe pae saeh. Te te BOEIPA im ah bi aka saii taeng neh im puut aka biing roek taengah,

And let them deliuer it into the hande of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord: let them giue it to them that worke in the house of the Lord, to repaire the decayed places of the house:

6 kutthai rhoek ham neh im aka sa rhoek ham khaw, aka biing ham neh thing lai ham khaw, im biing vaengkah lungrhaih lung ham khaw pae saeh,” a ti nah.

To wit, vnto the artificers and carpenters and masons, and to bye timber, and hewed stone to repaire the house.

7 Tedae amih khaw uepomnah neh a saii uh dongah amih kut dongah a paek tangka te amih taengah koep toem voel pawh.

Howebeit, let no rekoning bee made with them of the money, that is deliuered into their hand: for they deale faithfully.

8 Te vaengah khosoih puei Hilkiah loh cadaek Shaphan taengah, “BOEIPA im ah olkhueng cabu ka hmuh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah Hilkiah loh cabu te Shaphan taengah a paek tih a tae.

And Hilkiah the high Priest sayde vnto Shaphan the chanceller, I haue found the booke of the Lawe in the house of the Lord: and Hilkiah gaue the booke to Shaphan, and hee reade it.

9 Te phoeiah cadaek Shaphan te manghai taengla pawk tih manghai te ol a mael. Te vaengah, “Im khuikah a hmuh tangka te na sal rhoek loh a khok uh coeng. Te te BOEIPA im kah bi saii rhoek aka hung kut ah a paek uh coeng,” a ti nah.

So Shaphan the chanceller came to ye King, and brought him word againe, and saide, Thy seruants haue gathered the money, that was found in the house, and haue deliuered it vnto the hands of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord.

10 Cadaek Shaphan te manghai taengla puen tih, “Khosoih Hilkiah loh kai taengah cabu m'paek,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah te te Shaphan loh manghai mikhmuh ah a tae.

Also Shaphan the chanceller shewed the King saying, Hilkiah the Priest hath deliuered me a booke. And Shaphan read it before the King.

11 Manghai loh olkhueng cabu dongkah ol te a yaak van neh a himbai te a phen coeng.

And when the King had heard the wordes of the booke of the Law, he rent his clothes.

12 Te dongah manghai loh khosoih Hilkiah, Shaphan capa Ahikam, Mikaiah capa Akbor, cadaek Shaphan neh manghai kah sal Asaiah te a uen tih,

Therefore the King commanded Hilkiah the Priest, and Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan, and Achbor the sonne of Michaiah, and Shaphan the chanceller, and Asahiah the Kings seruant, saying,

13 “Cet uh, kai ham neh pilnam ham khaw, Judah pum ham khaw BOEIPA te toem uh laeh. Cabu dongkah ol a hmuh dongah he BOEIPA kah kosi tah mamih taengah muep rhong coeng. He cabu olka he a pa rhoek lohngai uh pawh. Mamih ham a daek tah a cungkuem ah ngai ham om,” a ti nah.

Go ye and inquire of the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Iudah concerning the wordes of this booke that is founde: for great is the wrath of the Lord that is kindled against vs, because our fathers haue not obeyed the wordes of this booke, to doe according vnto all that which is written therein for vs.

14 Te dongah khosoih Hilkiah, Ahikam, Akbor, Shaphan neh Asaiah tah himbai aka khoem Harhas koca Tikvah capa Shallum yuu, tonghmanu Huldah taengla cet uh. Te vaengah anih te Jerusalem kah hnukthoi khopuei ah kho a sak tih amah te a voek uh.

So Hilkiah the Priest and Ahikam, and Achbor and Shaphan, and Asahiah went vnto Huldah the Prophetesse the wife of Shallum, ye sonne of Tikuah, the sonne of Harhas keeper of the wardrobe: (and she dwelt in Ierusalem in the colledge) and they communed with her.

15 Te vaengah amih te, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Kai taengla nangmih aka tueih hlang taengah thui pah.

And shee answered them, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Tel the man that sent you to mee,

16 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Kai loh he hmuen so neh a khuikah khosa rhoek soah khaw boethae ka khuen coeng. Cabu dongkah ol cungkuem te Judah manghai loh a tae coeng te.

Thus sayth the Lord, Behold, I wil bring euill vpon this place, and on the inhabitants thereof, euen al the words of the booke which ye King of Iudah hath read,

17 Kai n'toeng uh tih a kut dongkah bitat cungkuem neh kai veet hamla a tloe pathen taengah phum uh. Te dongah ka kosi loh he hmuen he a hlup tih daeh voel mahpawh.

Because they haue forsaken mee, and haue burnt incense vnto other gods, to anger me with all ye works of their hands: my wrath also shalbe kindled against this place and shall not be queched:

18 BOEIPA toem hamla nangmih aka tueih Judah manghai te a taengah Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh a thui ol he na yaak bangla thui pah.

But to the King of Iudah, who sent you to inquire of the Lord, so shall ye say vnto him, Thus sayeth the Lord God of Israel, The wordes that thou hast heard, shall come to passe.

19 He hmuen so neh a khuikah khosa soah imsuep neh rhunkhuennah la om sak ham ka cal te na yaak vaengah na thinko phoena tih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah na kunyun coeng. Te vaengah na himbai te na phen tih ka mikhmuh ah na rhah khaw ka yaak bal coeng. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni.

But because thine heart did melt, and thou hast humbled thy selfe before the Lord, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants of the same, to wit, that it should be destroyed and accursed, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me, I haue also heard it, saith the Lord.

20 Te dongah kai loh nang te na pa rhoek taengla kan humcui sak bini ne. Na phuel ah ngaimong la na khoem uhvetih he hmuen soah ka khuen boethae cungkuem te na mik loh hmu mahpawh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah manghai te ol a mael uh.

Beholde therefore, I wil gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be put in thy graue in peace, and thine eyes shall not see all the euil, which I will bring vpon this place. Thus they brought the King worde againe.
