2 Lengte 16

1 Israel lengpa Pekah in lengvai ahop kal kum somle sagi lhinin, Jotham chapa Ahaz chun Judah gam’ah lengvai ahin hom pantan ahi.

In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

2 Ahaz chu leng achan chun kum somni alhingtan ahi. Aman Jerusalem’ah kum somle gup sungin lengvai ana hom’in ahi. Aman apu David khunung ajuijin Pathen Pakai mitmu’n thilpha jeng ana bolpon ahi.

Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not that which was right in the eyes of the LORD his God, like David his father.

3 Hichesang chun, Israel lengho umchan teho ana juiyin, achapatah jeng jong kilhaina dingin ana tohdoh in ahi. Hiti chun aman Pathenin Israel mite masanga ana deldoh peh’u Pathen neilou nam mite thet umtah thil anabolji houchu ana juitan ahi.

But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.

4 Aman kilhaina gantha anabollin, doi phung leh thinglhang chunglah thingdo-eng noi tinnah gimnamtui ana lhut’in ahi.

And he sacrificed and offered in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.

5 Hijou chun Syria lengpa Rezin leh Israel lengpa Pekah chu Jerusalem sat dingin ahungtou lhontan ahi. Amanin Ahaz anokhum lhonin ahinlah ana jou lhonpon ahi.

Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war; and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.

6 Hichelai phat tah chun Edom lengpan Elath khopi chu Edom mite dingin agalelah kittan ahi. Aman Judah techu adeldoh in Edom mite chu-achun achen lutsah in, tuni geijin achengun ahi.

At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath to Aram, and drove the Jews from Elath; and the Edomites came to Elath, and dwelt there, unto this day.

7 Ahaz lengpan Assyria lengpa Tiglath-pileser chu thu athot in, “Keima hi nanoija um nasoh kahin, hungtou vinlang Israel lengpa le Syria lengpan eihung delkhum lhonna akon hin neihung huhdoh’in,” atin ahi.

So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying: 'I am thy servant and thy son; come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Aram, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me.'

8 Hijou chun Ahaz in Pakai houin’a konin sana, dangka holeh leng inpia sumlepai kholna a konin sana le dagka ho achomkhom in Assyria lengpa chu athot tan ahi.

And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.

9 Hiti chun Assyria lengpan Syria khopi Damascus chu anokhum’in amipite chu gal hingin akaijin Kir gamsungah achen sah tan ahi. Aman Rezin lengpa jong chu athat’in ahi.

And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him; and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.

10 Ahaz lengpa chu Assyria lengpa Tiglath-pileser toh kimuto dingin Damascus a achen ahi. Hilai munna aum petchun, aman maicham phung kiboldan hochu aven amelchih in, hijouchun aman alimdan hochu hoitah in ajih doh in Uriah thempupa chu athot tan ahi.

And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and saw the altar that was at Damascus; and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.

11 Uriah chun lengpan ahilna ajuijin, maicham phungkhat alim ahung kithot taobang bang chun ana semdoh in, lengpa Damascus akona ahung kile tengleh avet dingin gonsan akoitan ahi.

And Urijah the priest built an altar; according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus, so did Urijah the priest make it against the coming of king Ahaz from Damascus.

12 Lengpa ahung kilephat’in, hiche maicham phung chu aga kholchil in, hichun pumgo thilto abolpai tai.

And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar; and the king drew near unto the altar, and offered thereon.

13 Aman pumgo thilto atoh in, lhosoh thilto jong atoh in, lengpithei thilto jong achunga asunglhan chuleh maicham chunga chun chamna thilto thisan jong athe khum in ahi.

And he offered his burnt-offering and his meal-offering, and poured his drink-offering, and dashed the blood of his peace-offerings against the altar.

14 Hijou chun Ahaz lengpan maicham thah leh lutna lampi kikah aum Pakai houin maija um sum-englui maicham chu aladoh in, maicham thahpa sahlanga chun achontan ahi.

And the brazen altar, which was before the LORD, he brought from the forefront of the house, from between his altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of his altar.

15 Aman Uriah thempupa kom’ah chun, “Hiche maicham thahpa hi, jingkah a pumgo thilto kihalna dingleh, nilhah lang’a lhohsoh thilto ho to nading, lengpa pumgo thilto tonading, chuleh mipitehojouse pumgo thitona chuleh lhohso thilto leh atuija kisunglha tonading ahi. Govam thilto hole pumgo thilto jouse a kona athisan chu maicham thah chunga hi athisan nathekhum ding ahi. Sum-eng maicham vang hi keima chang maicham ding ahi,” ati.

And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying: 'Upon the great altar offer the morning burnt-offering, and the evening meal-offering, and the king's burnt-offering, and his meal-offering, with the burnt-offering of all the people of the land, and their meal-offering, and their drink-offerings; and dash against it all the blood of the burnt-offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice; but the brazen altar shall be for me to look to.'

16 Uriah thempupan jong Ahaz lengpan aseipeh bang bangin abollin ahi.

Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

17 Ahaz lengpa chun Houin a kimang sum-eng kangtalai ho chengse chu aphelhan, hichea kon chun kisilna kongchu atoldoh paijin anoija kidinsah sum-eng bongchal ho chunga konin twikong chu adom lhan, chuin song inbul khat ah akoitai.

And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brazen oxen that were under it, and put it upon a pavement of stone.

18 Assyria lengpa lunglhai sah tei ding gotnan, Ahaz lengpan houin sung a kisa, cholngah nikhoa lengte thusei nap hung aladoh in, chujongle houin sunga lengpa achengseh lutna kotpi geiyin atoldoh sohtai.

And the covered place for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he unto the house of the LORD, because of the king of Assyria.

19 Ahaz vaihom sunga thilsoh jouseleh aman anatoh ho aboncha Judah lengte thusim bua kijihlut sohkei ahi.

Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20 Ahaz athi phat’in David khopia apu apate kivuina munah avui tauvin ahi. Hijouchun achapa Hezekiah chu ama khellin lengmun alotan ahi.

And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
