1 Hahoi Hezekiah ni Isarel ram hoi Judah ramnaw dawk a tami a patoun teh, Ephraim hoi Manasseh ram dawk hoi Isarel BAWIPA Cathut hanlah ceitakhai pawi sak hanelah Jerusalem khovah BAWIPA im dawk tho hanlah ca a patawn.
Then Hezekiah sent word throughout all Israel and Judah, and he also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh inviting them to come to the house of the LORD in Jerusalem to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel.
2 Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang hoi kabawmkungnaw hoi taminaw pueng ni thapa yung pahni dawk ceitakhai pawi sak hanlah a rawi awh.
For the king and his officials and the whole assembly in Jerusalem had decided to keep the Passover in the second month,
3 Hatnae tueng nah vaihma kamthoungnaw pap hoeh rah. Jerusalem vah tami pueng a kamkhueng thai awh hoeh rah dawkvah, pawi hah sak thai awh hoeh.
since they had been unable to observe it at the regular time, because not enough priests had consecrated themselves and the people had not been gathered in Jerusalem.
4 A pouk awh e hno hah siangpahrang hoi tami pueng pouknae dawk ngai e lah ao.
This proposal pleased the king and the whole assembly.
5 Hatnavah, Isarel ram pueng, Beersheba hoi Dan totouh Jerusalem vah tho vaiteh, Isarel BAWIPA Cathut hanlah ceitakhai pawi sak hanelah kamthang pathang hanlah a sak sak awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hottelah sakhoehnae a saw toe.
So they established a decree to circulate a proclamation throughout Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that the people should come to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel, in Jerusalem. For they had not observed it as a nation as prescribed.
6 Hottelah, ca kaphawtnaw ni siangpahrang hoi kabawmkungnaw e ca hah a sin teh Isarel hoi Judah ram a deng totouh rei hanlah siangpahrang kâpoe e patetlah a tâco awh. Isarelnaw teh Abraham, Isak hoi Isarel BAWIPA Cathut koe ban awh. Hat pawiteh, Siria siangpahrang kut dawk hoi ka hlout ni teh kaawm rae naw koe a ban awh han.
So the couriers went throughout Israel and Judah with letters from the king and his officials, which read: “Children of Israel, return to the LORD, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that He may return to those of you who remain, who have escaped the grasp of the kings of Assyria.
7 Nangmouh teh na mintoenaw hoi na hmaunawngha, a na mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut koe yonnae a sak awh teh, a hnam ka thun takhai e taminaw na hmu awh e patetlah awm awh hanh.
Do not be like your fathers and brothers who were unfaithful to the LORD, the God of their fathers, so that He made them an object of horror, as you can see.
8 Na mintoenaw patetlah lungpata hoi awm awh hanh. Hatei, BAWIPA koe kâhnawng awh nateh, yungyoe hanlah kathounge hmuen kathoung dawk kâen hoi BAWIPA na Cathut thaw hah tawk awh. Hat boipawiteh, puenghoi a lungkhueknae teh nangmouh koe a roum han.
Now do not stiffen your necks as your fathers did. Submit to the LORD and come to His sanctuary, which He has consecrated forever. Serve the LORD your God, so that His fierce anger will turn away from you.
9 BAWIPA koe lah na kamlang awh pawiteh, na hmaunawnghanaw hoi na canaw hah san lah kamannaw ni pahren awh vaiteh, hete ram dawk bout a tho awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA na Cathut teh pahren lungmanae lahoi kakawi e lah ao. Ama koelah na kamlang awh pawiteh, na cettakhai roeroe mahoeh telah ati awh.
For if you return to the LORD, your brothers and sons will receive mercy in the presence of their captors and will return to this land. For the LORD your God is gracious and merciful; He will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.”
10 Hottelah ca kathaknaw teh, Ephraim ram, Manasseh ram, hoi Zebulun ram totouh, kho touh hnukkhu kho touh a cei awh. Hateiteh, ahnimouh ni a panuikhai awh teh, a ka pacekpahlek awh.
And the couriers traveled from city to city through the land of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun; but the people scorned and mocked them.
11 Hateiteh, Asher taminaw, Manasseh taminaw hoi Zebulun tami tangawn ni lawkpui poung lah a pouk awh teh, Jerusalem lah a tho awh.
Nevertheless, some from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.
12 BAWIPA lawk dawk siangpahrang hoi kahrawikungnaw e kâpoe tarawi hoi lungthin suetalah a tawn awh nahan, Cathut kut teh Judah lathueng vah ao.
Moreover, the power of God was on the people in Judah to give them one heart to obey the command of the king and his officials according to the word of the LORD.
13 Hottelah thapa yung pahni navah, tonphuenhoehe pawi sak hanelah Jerusalem vah tami moikapap a kamkhueng awh.
In the second month, a very great assembly gathered in Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
14 Ahnimouh ni a thaw awh teh, Jerusalem kaawm e thuengnae khoungroenaw thoseh, hmuitui sawinae khoungroe dawk kaawm e naw pueng thoseh, a la awh teh Kidron tui dawk a tâkhawng awh.
They proceeded to remove the altars in Jerusalem and to take away the incense altars and throw them into the Kidron Valley.
15 Hottelah thapa yung pahni, hnin hlaipali nah ceitakhai pawi hanlah a thei awh. Vaihmanaw hoi Levihnaw a kaya awh dawkvah, a kâthoung sak awh teh, hote thuengnae hah BAWIPA im dawk a kâenkhai awh.
And on the fourteenth day of the second month they slaughtered the Passover lamb. The priests and Levites were ashamed, and they consecrated themselves and brought burnt offerings to the house of the LORD.
16 Cathut e tami Mosi e kâlawk patetlah amamae hmuen dawk lengkaleng a kangdue awh. Hote vaihmanaw ni, Levihnaw koehoi e thi hah a kathek awh.
They stood at their prescribed posts, according to the Law of Moses the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood, which they received from the hand of the Levites.
17 Bangkongtetpawiteh, taminaw thung kamthoung hoeh rae moi ao. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA hanlah kamthoung hanlah, kathounghoehnaw e thaw dawk Levih miphunnaw ni ceitakhai pawi sak han lah a thei.
Since there were many in the assembly who had not consecrated themselves, the Levites were in charge of slaughtering the Passover lambs for every unclean person to consecrate the lambs to the LORD.
18 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Ephraim tami, Manasseh tami, Issakhar tami, hoi Zebulun tami moikapapnaw hah thoung awh hoeh. Hateiteh, phung laipalah ceitakhai pawi rawca teh a ca awh.
A large number of the people—many from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun—had not purified themselves, yet they ate the Passover, contrary to what was written. But Hezekiah interceded for them, saying, “May the LORD, who is good, provide atonement for everyone
19 Hatei, Hezekiah ni, tami pueng a lungthin hoi Cathut, a na mintoenaw e Jehovah Cathut tawng hanlah kârakuengnaw pueng hmuen kathoung phung patetlah kamthoung awh hoeh nakunghai, kahawi e BAWIPA ni yontha awh naseh, telah ahnimouh hanlah a ratoum pouh.
who sets his heart on seeking God—the LORD, the God of his fathers—even if he is not cleansed according to the purification rules of the sanctuary.”
20 BAWIPA ni Hezekiah e ratoumnae hah a thai pouh teh taminaw pueng hah a dam sak.
And the LORD heard Hezekiah and healed the people.
21 Jerusalem kaawm e Isarelnaw ni, tonphuenhoehe pawiteh hnin sari touh thung lunghawicalah a hno awh. Hahoi Levihnaw hoi vaihmanaw ni ratoum hoi BAWIPA a pholen awh. Hottelah BAWIPA hah la hoi hnin touh hnukkhu hnin touh a pholen awh.
The Israelites who were present in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great joy, and the Levites and priests praised the LORD day after day, accompanied by loud instruments of praise to the LORD.
22 Hezekiah ni BAWIPA kahawicalah ka panuek e kacangkhaikung Levihnaw pueng hah tha a poe. Hottelah, a na mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut koe yon ngaithoumnae hei hoi roum thuengnae pueng hoi hnin sari touh thung rawca a ca awh.
And Hezekiah encouraged all the Levites who performed skillfully before the LORD. For seven days they ate their assigned portion, sacrificing fellowship offerings and giving thanks to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
23 Tami pueng ni hnin sari touh pawi bout to hanlah a kârakueng awh dawkvah, lunghawi hoi hnin sari touh pawi bout a to awh.
The whole assembly agreed to observe seven more days, so they observed seven days with joy.
24 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah ni taminaw hah maitotan 1, 000, tu 7, 000 touh thei hanlah a poe. Kahrawikungnaw nihai, tami pueng hah maitotan 1, 000 hoi tu 10, 000 a poe awh teh, vaihma moikapap ni a kâthoung sak awh.
For Hezekiah king of Judah contributed a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep for the assembly, and the officials contributed a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep for the assembly, and a great number of priests consecrated themselves.
25 Hottelah, Judahnaw pueng ni vaihmanaw hoi Levihnaw hoi Isarel ram kathonaw pueng hoi, miphun alouke e Isarel ram hoi kathonaw hoi, Judah ram kaawmnaw hoi a lunghawi awh.
Then the whole assembly of Judah rejoiced along with the priests and Levites and the whole assembly that had come from Israel, including the foreigners who had come from Israel and those who lived in Judah.
26 Hottelah lunghawinae kalen poung Jerusalem vah ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel siangpahrang Devit capa Solomon koehoi hot patet e Jerusalem vah awm boihoeh.
So there was great rejoicing in Jerusalem, for nothing like this had happened there since the days of Solomon son of David king of Israel.
27 Hottelah vaihma hoi Levihnaw ni a thaw awh teh, taminaw pueng yawhawinae a poe awh. A lawk a ngai pouh teh, a ratoum awh e teh kathounge kalvan vah a pha.
Then the priests and the Levites stood to bless the people, and God heard their voice, and their prayer came into His holy dwelling place in heaven.
