Hezekiah was twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years. His mother's name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
2 Amahin apa David nin ana bolbang bangin Pathen deilam ngen anabollin ahi
He did what was right in the Lord's sight, just as his forefather David had done.
3 Avaihom kum amasapen leh lha masapennin aman Pakai inchu akot ho jouse ahongin abonin asemphan ahi
In the first month of the first year of his reign, Hezekiah opened the doors of the Lord's Temple and repaired them.

He summoned the priests and the Levites, and had them gather on the square to the east.

He told them, “Listen to me, Levites. Purify yourselves now and purify the Temple of the Lord, the God of your forefathers. Take away from the Holy Place everything that is filthy.
6 Ajeh chu Ipu ipateovin Pakai Pathen mitmun thilse jeng anabollun achonkhel taovin ahi, Pathen anungsunnun Pathen chenna a kon in amai aheimang taovin ahi
For our fathers were sinful, and did what was evil in the Lord's sight. They abandoned him and paid no attention to the Lord's Temple, turning their backs on him.
7 Amahon Houin kot akhah un thaomeiho amutlih un chuleh Israel Pathen houin nah pumgo thilto abol tapouvin gimnamtwi jong ahal tapouvin ahi
They shut the doors at the entrance to the Temple and put out the lamps. They didn't burn incense or present burnt offerings at the sanctuary of the God of Israel.
8 Hitia hi anachon tahjehun Pakai hi Judah nam leh Jerusalem chungah analung hangin achunguva ichangeiya na anatoh hitam, hichehin mijouse ana lungdon sah in akichat sahtaan ahi. Hiche hi nanghon nahe soh keijuve
So the Lord's anger fell on Judah and Jerusalem, and he made them into something appalling, terrifying, and ridiculous, as you can see for yourselves.
9 Ipateo galla anathat nun ijiteo leh ichateo gal hingin ana kaimangun ahi
As a result, our fathers have died in battle, and our sons and our daughters and our wives have been captured.
10 Tuhin keiman Israel Pathen ipakaiyu komma hin kitep nakhat kasem nomme chutileh ama eiho chungah lunghang taponte
But now I'm going to make an agreement with the Lord, the God of Israel, so that his fierce anger will no longer fall on us.
11 “Kachate ho heche hi nahsah mon koihih un, ajeh chu Pakaiyin nanghohi a anga ding jinga ama lungdeilam bolding leh akin tong dinga chuleh gimnamtwi hal namdinga nalhen u ahi” ati
My sons, don't neglect your responsibilities, for the Lord has chosen you to stand in his presence to serve him, and to be his ministers presenting burnt offerings.”

Then the Levites went to work. They were Mahath, son of Amasai, and Joel, son of Azariah, from the Kohathites; Kish, son of Abdi, and Azariah, son of Jehallelel, from the Merarites; Joah, son of Zimmah, and Eden, son of Joah, from the Gershonites;

from the sons of Heman, Jehiel and Shimei; and from the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
15 Hitichun amaho insung chu akikhomun amahole amaho akisuthengun lengpa thupeh leh Pakai dei dung juiyin achonnun Pakai houin chu asuthengun ahi
They called together the other Levites and all of them purified themselves. Then they went in to clean the Lord's Temple, as the king had commanded, following the instructions as required by the Lord.
16 Hichun thempu hochu Pakai Houin sunglanga chun alutnun asuthengun chuleh Pakai houin Pakai hongcha changei jin ahin pou – vin chuleh Levi ten apodoh un Kidron phaichammah aga pailhaovin ahi
The priests went into the inner sanctuary of the Lord's Temple to clean it. They removed all the unclean things that they found in the Lord's Temple and placed them in the Temple courtyard. Then the Levites took them out and carried them to the Kidron Valley.
17 Natoh chu lhamasa – a nikho maspenni chu anapatnu ahi niget channin ana tongchai sohkeijun ahi, hichea hin houinna lutna dansung jong achai taovin hichejou chun niget abol beovin hiche lha sung ni 16 changeijin abollun houin chu houkhom na thei aso taovin ahi
They started the work of purification on the first day of the first month, and by the eighth day of the month they had reached the Temple porch. For eight more days they worked on purifying the Temple itself, and finished on the sixteenth day of the first month.

Then they went in to tell King Hezekiah, “We have cleaned the entire Temple of the Lord, the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the table of the showbread with all its utensils.
19 Hiche chung chonchun Ahaz lengpa Pathen doumah abolsunga anapaidoh thilkeo hojong chu kahin chomkhommun kasuthengun Pakai maicham masangah kakoi taove”
We have recovered and purified all the items that King Ahaz threw away during his reign when he was unfaithful. They are now before the Lord's altar.”
20 Jingpi tah in lengpa Hezekiah in khopi sunga lamkaiho jouse akoukhom min houin langa ache taove
King Hezekiah got up early, summoned the city officials, and went to the Lord's Temple.
21 Lengte insung leh Judah mipite chonset na suhtheng nadingleh houin suhtheng na dingin amahon bongchal 7, kelngoi 7 chuleh kelchal 7 hicheng hi Aaron chilhah te thempuhon maichamma pumgo thilto a akatdoh diuvin aseipeh in ahi
They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven male lambs, and seven male goats as a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. The king ordered the priests, the descendants of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the Lord.
22 Thempuhon bongchal chu athat masaovin abannin kelngoi chal ho abannin kelngoi ho athat nun akikatdoh gancha thisan hochu maicham chunga atheovin ahi
So they killed the bulls, and the priests took the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. They killed the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. They killed the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
23 Achaina in kelchal chu lengpa kom leh taona mangho komma chun akailutnun amahon gancha ho chunga chun akhut angam mun ahi
Then they brought the goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly, who placed their hands on them.
24 Hijou chun thempuhon kelchal hochu athatnun athisan chun mipite chonsetna apohmang na dinga kikatdoh hidingin maicham chunga chun atheovin ahi
Then the priests killed the goats and placed their blood on the altar for a sin offering, to make atonement for the whole of Israel, because the king had ordered that the burnt offering and sin offering were for the whole of Israel.
25 Nathan themgao leh lengpa themgao Gad nin Pathenna konna leng David thu ana pohchu Hezekiah lengpa hin phatah in ana juiyin ahi. Aman Levi techu selangdah leh tumging anakichoi sah in houinnah pan analah sah in ahi
Hezekiah had the Levites stand in the Lord's Temple with cymbals, harps, and lyres, following the instructions of David, Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet. The instructions had come from the Lord through His prophets.
26 Hiche atumgingu manchah chu leng David nin ana choi tobang bang chu ahi, thempu hojong sumkon kichoi pummin adingun ahi
The Levites stood with the musical instruments provided by David, with the priests holding their trumpets.
27 Hezekiah in pumgo thilto chu patdinga thu ahinpeh phatnin thilpeh chu ahung kipan tan chuleh mipichun Pakai thangvah na la asaovin, tumging saithem hochun sumkon mut toh agingthei jouse ahin sugingun ahi
Then Hezekiah gave the order for the burnt offering to be offered on the altar. As the burnt offering began, the song of the Lord began at the same time, the trumpets sounded, and music was played on the instruments of David, once king of Israel.
28 Mipi aum jouse chu Pathen houna – a chun apangun ahi; chuleh pumgo thilto hochu akahlhah jou kahsen tumging leh la kisa hochu achelhah jingin ahi
All the people in the assembly were worshiping, the singers were singing, and the trumpeters were playing. This continued until the burnt offering was finished.
29 Hijou teng chuleh Hezekiah lengpa leh mipi jouse chun adilsuo vin Pathen chibai abohun ahi
Once the offerings were completed, the king and everyone there with him bowed down and worshiped.
30 Lengpa Hezekiah leh nampi lamkaihon themgao Asaph leh David nin anasem thangvah na lachu Levi ten asahdiuvin thu anapeovin ahi, amaho adilsuo vin Pathen chibai abohun thangvah lachu kipah tah in asaovin ahi
Then King Hezekiah and his officials ordered the Levites to sing praises to the Lord using the words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with joy, and bowed their heads and worshiped.
31 Hezekiah chun mipi kommah aseijin “Tuahi nangho dan dungjuija thenga nahitaovin, hijeh chun Pakai thangvah na in pumgo thilto dinghi tohdoh taovin atin ahi. amahon sei angaijun miphabep chun acham chammin pumgo thilto dingin aganchao ahin kaijun ahi
Then Hezekiah told them, “Now that you have dedicated yourselves to the Lord, come and bring your sacrifices and thank offerings to the Lord's Temple.” So the people in the assembly brought their sacrifices and thank offerings, and everyone who wanted to brought burnt offerings.
32 Amahon bongchal 70,000 (Sang som sagi) kelngoichal 100 leh kelngoi 200 Pakaija pumgo thilto a dingin ahin tohdoh un ahi
The total number of burnt offerings they brought was seventy bulls, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs; all these were to be a burnt offering to the Lord.
33 Amahon Bongchal 600 leh kelngoichal 3000 (Sangthum) mipi ho nehdigin akatdoh un ahi
In addition there were dedicated offerings of six hundred bulls and three thousand sheep.
34 Hiche gancha ho hi that dingin thempuho alhahsam jeh in natoh chu akichai tokah in Levi ten ana kitho piovin ahi. Hijouchun thempuho chu ana kithenso beovin ahi. Levi hochu thempuho sangin kisuhtheng nalam ma chun anagun chujo uvin ahi
Since there weren't enough priests to skin all the burnt offerings, their Levite relatives helped them until the work was finished and the priests had been purified. (The Levites had been more conscientious in purifying themselves than the priests had.)
35 Pumgo thilto hijat banna jonghin chamna thilto sathao jong ahinalai jin, chuleh donthei thilto ho pumgo thilto a manchah ding jong ahinalai jin ahi. Hiti hin Pakai houin sunga akin bol ding jouse chu akisutoh sohkeitan ahi
Apart from the large number of burnt offerings, there was the fat of the friendship offerings, as well as the drink offerings that went with the burnt offerings. In this way the service of the Lord's Temple was restored.
36 Hitichun Hezekiah lengpa leh amitechu akipah lheh jengun ahi, ajeh chu Pathen kithopina jallin tohding jouse chu gangtah in achai taovin ahi
Hezekiah and everyone there were so happy at what God done for the people, because everything had been achieved so quickly.
