2 Manghai 1
1 Ahab a dueknah hnukah Moab loh Israel taengah boe a koek.
Then 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.
And Ahaziah fell down through a lattice in his upper chamber that [was] in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, and said to them, Go, inquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this disease.
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 the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God in Israel, [that] ye go to inquire of 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.
Now therefore thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. And Elijah departed.
5 Puencawn rhoek a taengla a mael uh vaengah tah amih te, “Balae tih na mael uh?” a ti nah.
And when the messengers turned back to him, he said to them, Why have ye now 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.
And they said to him, There came up a man to meet us, and said to us, Go, turn again to the king that sent you, and say to him, Thus saith the LORD, [Is it] not because [there is] not a God in Israel, [that] thou sendest to inquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely 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.
And he said to them, What manner of man [was he] who came up to meet you, and told you these words?
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.
And they answered him, [He was] a hairy man, and girt with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said, It [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 to him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and behold, he sat on the top of a hill. And he spoke to him, Thou man of God, the king hath 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.
And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I [am] a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
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 also he sent to him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said to him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, 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.
And Elijah answered and said to them, If I [am] a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
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.
And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said to him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy 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.
Behold, there came fire down from heaven, and burnt up the two captains of the former fifties with their fifties: therefore let my life now be precious in thy 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.
And the angel of the LORD said to Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him. And he 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.
And he said to him, Thus saith the LORD, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, [is it] not because [there is] no God in Israel to inquire of his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.
17 Te dongah Elijah loh a thui BOEIPA ol bangla duek tih Jehoram te anih yueng la manghai.
So he died according to the word of the LORD which Elijah had spoken. And Jehoram reigned in his stead in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah; because he 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?
Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah which he did, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
