< 2 Kings 17 >
1 In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah, Hoshea the son of Elah began to reign in Samaria over Israel for nine years.
Judah gam’ah Ahaz lengpan lengvai ahom kal kum somleni alhin chun, Israel gam’ah Elah chapa Hoshea in lengvai ahinhom pantan ahi. Aman Samaria khopia kum ko vai anahom’in ahi.
2 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, yet not as the kings of Israel who were before him.
Aman Pakai mitmu’n thilse jing anabollin ahi. Ahinlah a masanga Israelte lengho banglom lom’in ana phamo sampon ahi.
3 Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against him; and Hoshea became his servant, and brought him tribute.
Assyria lengpa Shalmaneser in Hoshea lengpa chu gal ahinsat khumtan ahileh, Assyriate chun Hoshea chu namna in kai gihtah ana pohsah’un ahi.
4 The king of Assyria discovered a conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and offered no tribute to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year. Therefore the king of Assyria seized him, and bound him in prison.
Ahinlah Hoshea in kumseh a apeh’u kai chu anapedan, chule Egypt lengpa So kitipa toh kithoa Assyriate thaneina a kona hoidoh ding aguh in tohgon ana neiyin ahi. Ahinlah hiche aguh a tohgon anei chu amudoh phat’in Assyria lengpan Hoshea chu ana mandoh in songkulla akoitan ahi.
5 Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
Hiche jouchun Assyria lenpan agam pumpi chu ahinsat-tan ahile, Samaria chu kum thum sung jen aumtauvin ahi.
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria and carried Israel away to Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and on the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
Ajonan Hoshea vaihom kum ko alhin chun Samaria alhutan, Israel mipite chu Assyria gam'a sohchang in analut tauvin ahi. Amaho chu Gozan munna Habor vadung pang jui'a Halah gam chenna munho a chun ana chensah’u ahi. Hichu Medes khopi ho khat ahi.
7 It was so because the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
Hitobanga Israelte chunga gimgentheina ahunglhun hi amahon semthu pathen ana ho’jeh'u, chule Egypt lengpa Pharaoh thaneina a kona ahin huhdohpa chujong leh hiche Egypt’a kona ahin puidoh uva Pakai Pathen douna chonset ana boljeh’u ahi.
8 and walked in the statutes of the nations whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they made.
Amahon Pakaiyin amaho masanga ananodoh peh’u Pathen neilou nam mite chondan analah uva chuleh Israel lengte phabep’in ahin pohlut’u chonna ho anajui jeh’u ahi.
9 The children of Israel secretly did things that were not right against the LORD their God; and they built high places for themselves in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city;
Israel mipi loikhat’in, Pakai a Pathen’u deiloulam le doumah thil tamtah aguh’a anabol jeh’u ahi. Amahon Pathen neiloute, doiphungho, khovetna mun neo apatna khopi pal lenpen chung geija amahon kisem doh’uva akitundoh’u ahi.
10 and they set up for themselves pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree;
Lhangvum dung jouse le thingnadum noi dung jousea doikhom hole Asherah doiphung ana kitun’un ahi.
11 and there they burned incense in all the high places, as the nations whom the LORD carried away before them did; and they did wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger;
Amahon namdangte maicham phung dung’a gimnamtui alhut nam’un, agamsung a Pakaiyin adeldohsa nam mite chonchan jouse ajom tauvin ahi. Hiti chun Israelten setna tampi anabollun, Pakai lung ahansah ji jin ahi.
12 and they served idols, of which the LORD had said to them, “You shall not do this thing.”
Pakaiyin kichehtah’a avel vella aseipeh chule gihsalna avel vella anapeh vangun, semthu doi ana hou jing tauvin ahi.
13 Yet the LORD testified to Israel and to Judah, by every prophet and every seer, saying, “Turn from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.”
Pakaiyin avellin themgao hole michingho anasollin Israelte leh Judahte chu avel vellin hilchahna anapen ahi, “Nathilse bol nauva konin hung kileheijun, kathupeh hole ka dansem ho, kathemgaote le kalhachate mangcha a napu napateo kana thupeh hohi jui unlang ngaiyun,” ati.
14 Notwithstanding, they would not listen, but hardened their neck like the neck of their fathers who did not believe in the LORD their God.
Ahinlah Israelten ana nahsah pouvin ahi. Apu apa teuvin, Pakai a Pathen’u tahsan ding ana noplou bang bangun along u ana tah’un ahi.
15 They rejected his statutes and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified to them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and followed the nations that were around them, concerning whom the LORD had commanded them that they should not do like them.
Amahon adanthule apu apateutoh ana sem kitepna hochu apaidoh’un chuleh ana hilchahna ho jeng jong ana nasah pouvin ahi. Amahon pannabei doiho pou ana hou’un amahotah jong manlou asohgam tauve. Amahon avel uva cheng namdangte chondan alauvin Pakai thupeh jui louvin anot thap tauvin ahi.
16 They abandoned all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made molten images for themselves, even two calves, and made an Asherah, and worshiped all the army of the sky, and served Baal.
Amahon Pakai a Pathen’u thupeh jouse apaidoh un, thih ahal jol’un bongnou ni lim asem tho uvin, Asherah doikhum’ah atungdoh un, Baal doi chuleh vanna ahsi teho pou ana hou un ahi.
17 They caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger.
Amahon chiding namdangte doi houna din achapateu leh achanuteu pumgo thilto din kilhainan anei jiuvin ahi. Chunle amahon gaothem ho donga phun themho asansah jiu, Pakai mitmua thildihlou bolna kipumpeh jeng ahiuvin, hijeh a chu Pakai chu aphin lunghang’u ahi.
18 Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight. There was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
Pakai chu Israelte chung’a alunghan val jeh’in, Aman ama hochu amitmua konin ana tolmang gamtan ahi. Judah changseh bou gamsunga ana chensah in ahi.
19 Also Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
Ahivangin Judahte jengin jong Pakai thupeh ananit nompouvin, Israelten anaphudoh’u chondan phalou ngen chu anajom’un ahi.
20 The LORD rejected all the offspring of Israel, afflicted them, and delivered them into the hands of raiders, until he had cast them out of his sight.
Pakaiyin Israel chilhahte chengse chu abonchan ana paidoh’in. Hiti chun ama mitmua kona apaidoh kahsen agal mite khut’ah anapehdoh in asugenthei in ahi.
21 For he tore Israel from David’s house; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king; and Jeroboam drove Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.
Pakaiyin Israelte chu David leng gam'a kona alhekeh jouvin, amahon alengpau dingin Nebat chapa Jeroboam chu ana kilhen tauvin ahi. Ahinlah Jeroboam in Israelte chu Pakai ajen ule ajui nauva konin anapuidoh in, chonsetna nasatah anatohdoh sahtan ahi.
22 The children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they did not depart from them
Hiti chun Israelten Jeroboam nung ajuiyun, thilse lampia chun akimangcha un, achonset nauva konin ahung kiheidoh tapouvin ahi.
23 until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he said by all his servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria to this day.
Themgao hon ana gih na bang bangun, Pakaiyin Israelte chu amitmua akona apaidoh kahsen anga dehpouvin ahi. Hijeh chun Israelte hi agamsung uva kona paidoh’a um uva tuni geija Assyria gam'a sohchang’a umden jing ahitauve.
24 The king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, from Cuthah, from Avva, and from Hamath and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel; and they possessed Samaria and lived in its cities.
Assyria lengpan Babylon gam'a kon, Cuthah khole Avva khoa kon, Hamath khoa konle Sepharvaim khoa konin, mihem tampi ahin tollin amaho chu Samaria khopi dung’a chun Israel chate khellin achensah tai. Amaho hin Samaria gamsung alouvin, akhopi dung jousea acheng tauve.
25 So it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they did not fear the LORD. Therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
Ahinlah hiche gamchom mi ahung chenglut hohin ahunglut til’un, Pakai Pathen ahou lou u ahi, hijeh chun Pakaiyin alah uvah keipi bahkai ahin sollin mi phabep anathat’in ahi.
26 Therefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The nations which you have carried away and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the law of the god of the land. Therefore he has sent lions among them; and behold, they kill them, because they do not know the law of the god of the land.”
Hijeh chun Assyria lengpa kom’ah thu athot’un, “Nangin Samaria khopi sungho a cheng dinga nahin sollut mipiho chun hiche gamsung mite Pathen houle chondanteho ahetlou jeh un, Pathen in amaho sugam dingin keipi bahkai ahinsol lut’in ahi, ajeh chu amahon Pakai ahoudan u adihloujeh ahi.
27 Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, “Carry there one of the priests whom you brought from there; and let him go and dwell there, and let him teach them the law of the god of the land.”
Assyria lengpa chun hitihin thu apen, “Soh’a kikaimang ho lah thempu khat chu Samaria khopia le-solpeh’un. Amachu ahung chenglut thahho lah’a chengin tin, agamsung mite Pathen houjidan le chondan teho gahil hen,” ati.
28 So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and lived in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
Hiti chun Samaria kona hung sohchang thempu khatchu Bethel ah alesollut’un, aman achenglut thah-ho chu Pakai houdan chu ahil pantan ahi.
29 However every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities in which they lived.
Ahinlah gamchom mi ahon honna hunglut hochun ama ama Pathen cheh chu akihoujom jingun ahi. Achennau khopi khatna konin khopi khat’ah Samaria mipiten ana tundoh’u doi phung hoa chun milim semthu hochu akikoijun ahi.
30 The men of Babylon made Succoth Benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
Babylon’a kona hunghon, Succoth-benoth pathen chu ahouvun, Cuthah a kona hungho chun Nergal pathen chu ahouvun, chuleh Hamath na kona hunghon Ashima ahouvun ahi.
31 and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites burned their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
Avvit ten jong Nibhaz le Tartak pathen ahouvun, chuleh Sepharvaim akona hunghon achateu chu apathen’u Adrammelech leh Anammelech hou’nan pumgo thilto in akatdoh jiuvin ahi.
32 So they feared the LORD, and also made from among themselves priests of the high places for themselves, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
Hitobanga ahung chenglut thah hohin Pakai jeng ven ahou jing nauve, alah uva konin thempu akilhengdoh un, chiding namdangte doiphunga doi hounan hiche thempu ho chu mido a dingin apansah jiuvin ahi.
33 They feared the LORD, and also served their own gods, after the ways of the nations from among whom they had been carried away.
Chule amahon Pakai chu ahoujeng vang’un, ahung kondoh nau gamsunga kihou pathente jong adan dungjuiyin ama ama indoi cheh jong akihou thouvun, chondan hochu achepi jing nalaijun ahi.
34 To this day they do what they did before. They do not fear the LORD, and they do not follow the statutes, or the ordinances, or the law, or the commandment which the LORD commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel;
Hiche achondan lui hochu tunikho geijin achepiuvin ahi. Amahon Pakai chu ahoutah tah pouvin, amavang tumasang a achonnau chu ajui-nalaijun ahi. Amahon Pakaiyin Israel tia amin anakhelpeh Jacob chihlhahte anapeh thupeh hole ajuidiuva dan ana sempeh hochu khatcha jong ajui pouvin ahi.
35 with whom the LORD had made a covenant and commanded them, saying, “You shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them;
Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Jacob chilhahte hochu kitepna ana semin, ajui diuvin thupeh hitin anapei, “Pathen dang hou hih’un ahilouleh a ang’a jong nakun theilou diu, jen-jong najen theilou diu, akom’uva jong kilhaina nabol theilou heldiu ahi,” ati.
36 but you shall fear the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, and you shall bow yourselves to him, and you shall sacrifice to him.
Ahinlah, “Abantha hanta thanei tah’a Egypt akona nahin puidoh pa Pakai amabou chu nahoudiu, Ama angsung’a bou nakun diu chule kilhina jong ama koma bou nasem diu ahi.
37 The statutes and the ordinances, and the law and the commandment which he wrote for you, you shall observe to do forever more. You shall not fear other gods.
Nangho dia kipe danho le chonchan dingho chule thupeh hochu phat tinle phatecha a nanit jing thei nading un phatseh in chingtheiyun lang semthu pathen kitiho nahou louhel dingu ahi.
38 You shall not forget the covenant that I have made with you. You shall not fear other gods.
Keiman nangho toh kasem kitepna chu sumil hihbeh un chujongleh pathen dang kiti poupou nahou theilou helding’u ahi.
39 But you shall fear the LORD your God, and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.”
Nanghon Pakai na Pathen bou nahoudiu ajeh chu Ama chun nagalmi houva kona nahin huhdoh diu ahi,” ati.
40 However they did not listen, but they did what they did before.
Ahinlah mipite chun hiche thu kisei hochu ana nahsah pouvin, achonnau masa dungjui chun achomjom jingun ahi.
41 So these nations feared the LORD, and also served their engraved images. Their children did likewise, and so did their children’s children. They do as their fathers did to this day.
Hitihin hiche ahung chenglut thah hochun Pakai chu ahou vangun amaho milim doiho jong chu alhadeh pouvin ahi. Tuni changei hin achilhah teuvin jong achepi jingun ahi.
