2 Siangpahrang 16

1 Remaliah capa Pekah, a bawi nah kum 17 navah, Judah siangpahrang Jotham capa Ahaz teh siangpahrang lah ao.

In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah, Ahaz, the son of Jotham, became king of Judah.

2 Ahaz teh siangpahrang a tawk nah kum 20 touh a pha. Jerusalem kum 16 touh a uk. A na pa Devit patetlah BAWIPA Cathut mithmu vah hawinae sak laipalah, Isarelnaw ni a dawn awh e lam hah a dawn.

Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king; he was ruling for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God, as David his father did.

3 BAWIPA ni Isarelnaw hmalah a pâlei e miphunnaw ni panuetthopoung e hno ouk a sak e patetlah a capanaw hah hmai hoi thuengnae a sak awh.

But he went in the ways of the kings of Israel, and even made his son go through the fire, copying the disgusting ways of the nations whom the Lord had sent out of the land before the children of Israel.

4 Hmuenrasang hoi mon tangkuem hoi thingkung rahim tangkuem vah, thuengnae a sak awh teh, hmuitui hmai a sawi awh.

And he made offerings, burning them in the high places and on the hills and under every green tree.

5 Hot patetlah, Siria siangpahrang Rezin hoi Isarel siangpahrang Remaliah capa Pekah teh, Jerusalem tuk hanlah a kamthaw teh, Ahaz hah king a kalup awh eiteh, tâ awh hoeh.

Then Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war; and they made an attack on Ahaz, shutting him in, but were not able to overcome him.

6 Hote tueng navah, siangpahrang Rezin ni Elath teh Siria ram hanlah, bout a la. Judahnaw Elath hoi a pâlei awh teh, Sirianaw hah Elath vah a cei awh teh, atu totouh haw vah kho a sak awh.

At that time the king of Edom got Elath back for Edom, and sent the Jews out of Elath; and the Edomites came back to Elath where they are living to this day.

7 Ahaz ni Siria siangpahrang Tiglath Pileser koevah na san hoi na capa lah nahoehmaw ka o, kai tuk hanlah ka tho e Siria siangpahrang hoi Isarel siangpahrangnaw e kut dawk hoi na rungngang haw, ti teh patounenaw a patoun.

So Ahaz sent representatives to Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, saying, I am your servant and your son; come to my help against the kings of Aram and Israel who have taken up arms against me.

8 Ahaz ni BAWIPA im e suingun kaawmnaw pueng siangpahrang im vah pâtung e râwnaw hai a la teh, Siria siangpahrang koevah ayawmlah a patawn.

And Ahaz took the silver and gold which were in the house of the Lord and in the king's store-house, and sent them as an offering to the king of Assyria.

9 Assiria siangpahrang ni a dei e hah a tang teh, Damaskas kho a tuk teh a la. A taminaw hah Kir ram vah san lah a hrawi awh teh Rezin hah a thei awh.

And the king of Assyria, in answer to his request, went up against Damascus and took it, and took its people away as prisoners to Kir, and put Rezin to death.

10 Siangpahrang Ahaz teh, Siria siangpahrang Tiglath Pileser kâhmo hanlah, Damaskas kho vah a cei teh, Damaskas kho e thuengnae khoungroe hah a hmu. Hot patetlah siangpahrang Ahaz ni, hote khoungroe e a meilam teh a sak e boiboe lah a khetkhai vaiteh, sak van hanlah, vaihma Urijah koevah a mei hah a patawn.

Then King Ahaz went to Damascus for a meeting with Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria; and there he saw the altar which was at Damascus; and King Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest a copy of the altar, giving the design of it and all the details of its structure.

11 Vaihma Urijah, ni thuengnae khoungroe teh a sak hoi siangpahrang Ahaz ni, Damaskas kho hai a patawn awh e boiboe lah, vaihma Urijah ni Damaskas kho hai Ahaz siangpahrang a pha hoehnahlan a la cum toe.

And from the copy King Ahaz sent from Damascus, Urijah made an altar and had it ready by the time King Ahaz came back from Damascus.

12 Damaskas kho hoi siangpahrang a pha toteh, siangpahrang ni thuengnae khoungroe teh a hmu. Siangpahrang ni thuengnae khoungroe a pâtam teh a van vah a luen.

And when the king came from Damascus, he saw the altar; and he went up on it and made an offering on it.

13 Thuengnae dawkvah, hmaisawi thuengnae hai a poe. Tavai thuengnae hai a poe. Nei thuengnae hah a awi teh, roum thuengnae thi hah a awi sin.

He made his burned offering and his meal offering and his drink offering there, draining out the blood of his peace-offerings on the altar.

14 Hahoi BAWIPA hmalah, rahum khoungroe, khoungroe hoi BAWIPA im rahak kaawm e, im hmalah kaawm e hah a puen awh teh, khoungroe e atung lah a ta.

And the brass altar, which was before the Lord, he took from the front of the house, from between his altar and the house of the Lord, and put it on the north side of his altar.

15 Siangpahrang Ahaz ni ka len e khoungroe katha thuengnae dawkvah, amom lah, hmaisawi thuengnae, tangmin lah tavai thuengnae siangpahrang hmaisawi thuengnae, tavai thuengnae, nei thuengnae pueng hai hmaisawi nateh poe lawih. Hahoi a van vah, hmaisawi thuengnae pueng hoi thuengnae thinaw pueng haiyah, na kahei sin han. Rahum khoungroe teh ka bawk nahanelah ao han, vaihma Urijah hah kâ a poe.

And King Ahaz gave orders to Urijah the priest, saying, Make the morning burned offering and the evening meal offering and the king's burned offering and meal offering, with the burned offerings of all the people and their meal offerings and drink offerings, on the great altar, and put on it all the blood of the burned offerings and of the beasts which are offered; but the brass altar will be for my use to get directions from the Lord.

16 Hot patetlah, vaihma Urijah ni, siangpahrang kâ poe patetlah a sak.

So Urijah the priest did everything as the king said

17 Hahoi siangpahrang Ahaz ni rahum khoungroe ca hah a takhoe teh maroi hai a tahruet. Rahum tuiim hai rahum maito van hai a la teh talung van a pâhung.

And King Ahaz took off the sides of the wheeled bases, and took down the great water-vessel from off the brass oxen which were under it and put it on a floor of stone.

18 Assiria siangpahrang kecu dawkvah, sabbath hnin hanlah, lemphu padi e lam siangpahrang imthungkhu vah sak e hoi, siangpahrang hanlah a lawilah hoi kâennae BAWIPA im koehoi a puen awh.

the house of the Lord, because of the king of Assyria.

19 Ahaz tawksakna kaawm rae teh, Judah siangpahrangnaw e setouknae cauk dawk koung thut lah ao nahoehmaw.

Now the rest of the things which Ahaz did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?

20 Ahaz teh a na mintoenaw koe a kâhat. Devit kho thung, a na mintoenaw koe a pakawp awh, hahoi a capa Hezekiah ni a yueng lah a uk.

And Ahaz went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
