2 Thusimbu 16

1 Asa Lengvai poh kum somthum lhin kumin, Israel lengpa Baasha chun Judah gam ahin bullu tan ahile; Judah gamsunga Asa gamkol akonna koimacha lutle potle aumlouna dingin Ramah khopia chun kul agen tan ahi.

In the thirty-sixth year of the rule of Asa, Baasha, king of Israel, went up against Judah, building Ramah so that no one was able to go out or in to Asa, king of Judah.

2 Asa chun alethuh nai, Pakai Houin le leng inpia um gouthil kikoina um sana le dangka jouse chu aladoh in; Damascus gam vaihom Ram Lengpa Baasha chu thu athot tan ahi.

Then Asa took silver and gold out of the stores of the Lord's house and of the king's store-house, and sent to Ben-hadad, king of Aram, at Damascus, saying,

3 Kapa le nangpa kah’a kinoptona ana um bang chun eini kah’a jong umhen. “Ven, keiman sana le dangka kahin thotne Israel lengpa Baasha toh na kinop tona hon chu sutang jengin chutile aman eidalha tante.”

Let there be an agreement between me and you as there was between my father and your father: see, I have sent you silver and gold; go and put an end to your agreement with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he may give up attacking me.

4 Ben-Hadad leng pan Asa taona anoppeh in, chule Israel khopi ho bullu ding in a sepai ja lamkai pachu asoltan ahi. Amahon Ijon, dan Abel-beth- Maacah khopiho le Naphthali gam sunga thil khol khopi len ho jouse chu ala tauvin ahi.

And Ben-hadad did as King Asa said, and sent the captains of his armies against the towns of Israel, attacking Ijon and Dan and Abel-maim, and all the store-towns of Naphtali.

5 Baasha Israel Lengpan thilsoh ho chu ajah doh doh chun, Ramah khopi kul getna tohgon adalhan anatoh jouse chu angatan ahi.

Then Baasha, hearing of it, put a stop to the building of Ramah, and let his work come to an end.

6 Chuin Lengpa Asa, “Chun in Ramah khopia kul semnaa mandin Baashan akoi in, songho le thing kiatsa ho pomang ding chun Judah te mijouse chu akoudoh tan ahi. Hiche chu Geba le Mizpah khopi kul semnan amangcha tan ahi.”

Then King Asa, with all Judah, took away the stones and wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and he made use of them for building Geba and Mizpah.

7 Hiche pet hin Hanami mitva neipa Lengpa Asa komma ahungin, chule hitin asepeh’e, “Nangman Pakai na-Pathen khella Ram Lengpa chunga tahsana na koi tah jeh chun, Ram Lengpa sepaite suhmang na ding phatpha chu namansah tai.

At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa, king of Judah, and said to him, Because you have put your faith in the king of Aram and not in the Lord your God, the army of the king of Aram has got away out of your hands.

8 Ethiopia le Libya te chule Sepai tamtah toh akangtalai hou le kangtalai tol ho chunga, ipi anasoh ham tichu nagel doh lou hitam? Hiche petna chu nangma Pakaiya naki ngai jeh’a aman nangma napehdoh ahi,” ati.

Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a very great army, with war-carriages and horsemen more than might be numbered? but because your faith was in the Lord, he gave them up into your hands.

9 Pakaiyin leiset pumpia hi ama komma alungthim pea kipedoh ho chu, “Athahat theina diuva amit tenia hi ahol le ji ahi. Iti ngolla ngol nahi hitam! Tua kipat na hi nang man gal nasat jing ding ahitai,” tin aseipeh tan ahi.

For the eyes of the Lord go this way and that, through all the earth, letting it be seen that he is the strong support of those whose hearts are true to him. In this you have done foolishly, for from now you will have wars.

10 Hanani in hitiho aseipeh jeh chun, Asa chu alung hang behset in ama chu Songkul'a ahengin bul atuh tan ahi. Hiche pet chun amite phabep jong asugim pan tan ahi.

Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in prison, burning with wrath against him because of this thing. And at the same time Asa was cruel to some of the people.

11 Asa Lengvaipoh abulla pat achaina chan thilsoh thusim adangho chu, Judah le Israel te lengho thusim bua akijih lut soh keijin ahi.

Now the acts of Asa, first and last, are recorded in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

12 Ama Leng vaipoh kum somthum le ko lhin kum chun, Asa chu keng natna khohtah khat aveitan ahi. Chutobang natna khohtah aneijing vang chun, Pakai hollouvin alou them aithem hojoh kithopina ahol jingin ahi.

In the thirty-ninth year of his rule, Asa had a very bad disease of the feet; but he did not go to the Lord for help in his disease, but to medical men.

13 Hichun aleng vaipoh kum som le li lhinna kum chun athitan ahi.

So Asa went to rest with his fathers, and death came to him in the forty-first year of his rule.

14 David khopia chun aman song chunga ana kikhen lhan achun akivuitan ahi. Ama chu gim namtui le thao namtui kinu lupna achun alupsah un, chuin mipi ho chun ama jana vetsahnan kigona meikong lentah khat ahaluvin ahi.

And they put him into the resting-place which he had made for himself in the town of David, in a bed full of sweet perfumes of all sorts of spices, made by the perfumer's art, and they made a great burning for him.
