< 2 Setouknae 32 >
1 Yuemkamcu lah hno a sak awh hnukkhu, Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib hah a tho teh, Judah ram lah a kâen. Kalup e khopui la hanelah noe lahoi a kalup awh.
And after these things and this faithful dealing, came Sennacherim king of the Assyrians, and he came to Juda, and encamped against the fortified cities, and intended to take them for himself.
2 Sennacherib hah a tho teh, Jerusalem tuk han a noe e hah Hezekiah ni a thai toteh,
And Ezekias saw that Sennacherim was come, and [that] his face [was set] to fight against Jerusalem.
3 kho alawilah kaawm e tuinaw tapuet hanelah, kahrawikungnaw hoi athakaawme taminaw koe pouknae a hei teh ahni hah a kabawp awh.
And he took counsel with his elders and his mighty [men] to stop the wells of water which were without the city: and they helped him.
4 Hot patetlah tami moikapap a kamkhueng awh teh, tuinaw pueng hoi kho dawk ka lawng e naw hah a paka awh. Bangkongmaw, Assiria siangpahrang a kâen vaiteh, tui moikapap a tawn han, telah a ti.
And he collected many people, and stopped the wells of water, and the river that flowed through the city, saying, Lest the king of Assyria come, and find much water, and strengthen [himself].
5 Hottelah hoi kalupnae katimnaw pueng tha a patho awh teh a sak awh. Imrasang hah alawilah kalupnae hoi a sak. Devit kho e Millo rapan a caksak awh teh, senehmaica hoi bahling moikapap lah a sak.
And Ezekias strengthened [himself], and built all the wall that had been pulled down, and the towers, and another wall in front without, and fortified the strong place of the city of David, and prepared arms in abundance.
6 Tarantuknae koe kahrawikung kacuenaw a rawi awh. Khopui longkha koe a kamkhueng sak awh.
And he appointed captains of war over the people, and they were gathered to [meet] him to the open place of the gate of the valley, and he encouraged them, saying,
7 Thasai lahoi tarankahawilah awm awh haw. Assiria siangpahrang hoi ahni koe kaawmnaw takhek awh hanh. Na lungpout awh hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, maimouh koelah kampang e teh, ahnimouh koelah kampang e hlak a thasaihnawn.
Be strong and courageous, and fear not, neither be dismayed before the King of Assyria, and before all the nation that [is] with him: for [there are] more with us than with him.
8 Ahnimouh koe kampang e teh takthai ransa lah ao. Na kabawm hane hoi na ka tuk khai hane maimouh koe lah ka kampang e teh Cathut doeh telah thapoenae lawk a dei. Taminaw ni Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah ni a dei e dawk a kâuep awh.
With him [are] arms of flesh; but with us [is] the Lord our God to save [us], and to fight our battle. And the people were encouraged at the words of Ezekias king of Juda.
9 Hathnukkhu Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib ni ama hoi a ransanaw teh, Lakhish vah ao awh. Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah hoi Jerusalem e Judah taminaw pueng koevah,
And afterward Sennacherim king of the Assyrians sent his servants to Jerusalem; and [he went] himself against Lachis, and all his army with him, and sent to Ezekias king of Juda, and to all Juda that [was] in Jerusalem, saying,
10 Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib hettelah a dei, Jerusalem la hanelah bangkongmaw na yuem awh hoeh.
Thus says Sennacherim king of the Assyrians, On what do ye trust, that ye will remain in the siege in Jerusalem?
11 Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA Cathut ni Assiria siangpahrang kut dawk hoi na rungngang han telah vonhlam tui kahran laihoi na due awh nahane dawk na pasawt awh nahoehmaw.
Does not Ezekias deceive you, to deliver you to death and famine and thirst, saying, The Lord our God will deliver us out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
12 Hezekiah ni doeh Cathut e hmuenrasang hoi khoungroenaw a pahnawt teh, khoungroe buet touh e hmalah nangmouh ni na bawk awh han. Hote khoungroe van vah, hmuitui hah hmai na sawi awh han telah Judah khoca, Jerusalem khocanaw hah kâ poe hoeh namaw.
Is not this Ezekias who has taken down his altars and his high places and has spoken to Juda and the dwellers in Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall worship before this altar and burn incense upon it?
13 Kai hoi mintoenaw ni ram tangkuem ka sak awh e na panuek awh hoeh maw. Bangpatetlae miphun Cathut ni nakunghai, ka kut thung hoi a ram hah a rungngang thai yaw maw.
Know ye not what I and my fathers have done to all the nations of the countries? Could the gods of the nations of all the earth at all rescue their people out of my hand?
14 Bangpatete miphun cathut maw, ka mintoenaw ni a raphoe awh hoeh e, ka kut thung hoi ka hlout e hoi a rungngang thai e ouk kaawm. Na Cathut ni hai ka kut thung hoi na rungngang thai han namaw.
Who is there among all the gods of those nations whom my fathers utterly destroyed, [worthy of trust]? Could they deliver their people out of my hand, that your God should deliver you out of my hand?
15 Hatdawkvah, Hezekiah ni na dum awh nahanh seh. Hot patetlah na tacuek awh nahanh seh. Ahni teh yuem awh hanh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, bangpatet lae miphun cathut hoi, bangpatet e uknaeram cathut nihai, ka kut thung hoi ka mintoenaw e kut thung hoi na ka rungngang thai hane awm boihoeh. Bangtelamaw, nangmae cathut ni bout na rungngang thai awh han rah, telah Jerusalem vah tami a patoun.
Now then, let not Ezekias deceive you, and let him not make you thus confident, and believe him not: for no god of any kingdom or nation is at all able to deliver his people out of my hand, or the hand of my fathers: therefore your God shall not deliver you out of my hand.
16 A taminaw ni hothlak hoe kacaihnawn lah BAWIPA Cathut hoi a san Hezekiah kong dawk kathout lahoi lawk a dei awh.
And his servants continued to speak against the Lord God, and against his servant Ezekias.
17 Isarel BAWIPA Cathut a lungkhuek sak hane hoi dudam lahoi ca a thut. Ram pueng miphun pueng cathutnaw ni ka kut thung hoi a taminaw a rungngang thai hoeh e patetlah Hezekiah Cathut nihai, ka kut dawk hoi a taminaw rungngang thai mahoeh telah a ti.
And he wrote a letter to reproach the Lord God of Israel, and spoke concerning him, saying, As the gods of the nations of the earth have not delivered their people out of my hand, so the God of Ezekias shall by no means deliver his people out of my hand.
18 Khopui a la thai awh nahan, a pakhi awh teh a lungpuen sak awh nahan Jerusalem kalupnae koe kaawmnaw hah Hebru lawk lahoi kacaipounglah pou a hram sin awh.
And he cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language to the people of Jerusalem on the wall, [calling them] to assist them, and pull down [the walls], that they might take the city.
19 Jerusalem Cathut teh, tami kut hoi sak e talai cathut patetlah a dudam awh.
And he spoke against the God of Jerusalem, even as against the gods of the nations of the earth, the works of the hands of men.
20 Siangpahrang Hezekiah hoi Amoz capa profet Isaiah niteh, haw e hno dawk a ratoum teh kalvan kaawm e hah a kaw.
And king Ezekias and Esaias the prophet the son of Amos prayed concerning these things, and they cried to heaven.
21 BAWIPA ni kalvantami a patoun teh, ama ni Assiria siangpahrang a roenae koe e tarankahawi ni teh athakaawme taminaw hoi kahrawikung kacuenaw hah a thei awh. Hottelahoi minhmai ka mathout lahoi a ram koelah a ban. A cathut im vah a cei lahun nah, a thung hoi e a canaw roeroe ni tahloi hoi a thei awh.
And the Lord sent an angel, and he destroyed every mighty man and warrior, and leader and captain in the camp of the king of Assyria: and he returned with shame of face to his own land and came into the house of his god: and [some] of them that came out of his bowels slew him with the sword.
22 Hot patetlah BAWIPA ni Hezekiah hoi Jerusalem taminaw teh Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib kut dawk hoi alouke tami kut dawk hoi a rungngang teh a tengpam e naw thung hoi a ring awh.
So the Lord delivered Ezekias and the dwellers in Jerusalem out of the hand of Sennacherim King of Assyria, and out of the hand of all [his enemies], and gave them rest round about.
23 Tami moikapap ni Jerusalem vah BAWIPA hanlah hno a sin awh. Aphu kaawm poung e hnonaw hah Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah koevah a poe awh. Hatnae tueng hoi teh, miphun pueng e mithmu vah oup e lah ao.
And many brought gifts to the Lord to Jerusalem, and presents to Ezekias king of Juda; and he was exalted in the eyes of all the nations after these things.
24 Hatnae tueng dawk Hezekiah teh meimei kadout lah a pataw. BAWIPA koevah a ratoum, lawk a dei pouh teh mitnoutnae a poe.
In those days Ezekias was sick even to death, and prayed to the Lord: and he hearkened to him, and gave him a sign.
25 Hatei teh Hezekiah ni ahni hanelah hawinae sak ngai hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a kâoup. Hatdawkvah, ama hoi Judah tami hoi Jerusalem lathueng lungkhueknae a pha.
But Ezekias did not recompense the Lord according to the return which he made him, but his heart was lifted up: and wrath came upon him, and upon Juda and Jerusalem.
26 Hezekiah ni a lungthin a kâoupnae hah pankângai lahoi amahoima Jerusalem taminaw hoi a kârahnoum awh. Hottelah Hezekiah a hring nathung vah, BAWIPA lungkhueknae hah a lathueng phat pouh boihoeh toe.
And Ezekias humbled himself after the exaltation of his heart, he and the dwellers in Jerusalem; and the wrath of the Lord did not come upon them in the days of Ezekias.
27 Hezekiah teh hnopai moikapap a tawn dawkvah a bari awh. Ngun, sui, talung aphu kaawm, hmuitui, bahling, kahawi e hnopai hrueknae im hai a sak.
And Ezekias had wealth and very great glory: and he made for himself treasuries of gold, and silver, and precious stones, also for spices, and stores for arms, and for precious vessels;
28 Capainaw, misurtui, satui, pâtungnae im hai a sak. Hahoi saring phunkuep hoi tu hrueknae imnaw hah a sak.
and cities for the produce of corn, and wine, and oil; and stalls and mangers for every [kind of] cattle, and folds for flocks;
29 Khoha a thawng teh, tuhu hoi maitohu moikapap a tawn. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut ni a tawnta sak.
and cities which he built for himself, and store of sheep and oxen in abundance, for the Lord gave him a very great store.
30 Hezekiah ni Gihon palang hah a pauem teh, Devit khopui kanîloumlah a lawng sak. Hottelah Hezekiah teh a sak nah tangkuem a lamcawn.
The same Ezekias stopped up the course of the water of Gion above, and brought the water down straight south of the city of David. And Ezekias prospered in all his works.
31 Babilon bawinaw ni laicei a patoun teh a ram e kângairu hno a sak e a paceinae dawkvah, a lungthin dawk kaawm e pueng a panue thai awh nahan Cathut ni a tanouk teh, hnamthun takhai.
Notwithstanding, in regard to the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who were sent to him to enquire of him [concerning] the prodigy which came upon the land, the Lord left him, to try him, to know what was in his heart.
32 Hezekiah tawksaknae pueng dawk hoi kaawm rae hawinae a sak e naw teh, khenhaw! Amoz capa profet Isaiah kamnuenae cauk, Judah Isarel siangpahrangnaw setouknae dawk a thut awh nahoehmaw.
And the rest of the acts of Ezekias, and his kindness, behold, they are written in the prophecy of Esaias the son of Amos the prophet, and in the book of the kings of Juda and Israel.
33 Hezekiah teh, a na mintoenaw koe a i teh, Devit capanaw e phuen dawk, kahawipoung e tangkom koe a pakawp awh. Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem taminaw ni Hezekiah a due toteh a sungren sak awh. A capa Manasseh ni a yueng lah a uk.
And Ezekias slept with his fathers, and they buried him in a high place among the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Juda and the dwellers in Jerusalem gave him glory and honour at his death. And Manasses his son reigned in his stead.
