1 Kings 16
1 Then the word of the LORD came to Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha, saying:
BOEIPA ol tah Baasha hamla Hanani capa Jehu taengla ha pawk tih,
2 “Even though I lifted you out of the dust and made you ruler over My people Israel, you have walked in the way of Jeroboam and have caused My people Israel to sin and to provoke Me to anger by their sins.
“Nang te laipi lamloh kan pomsang tih ka pilnam Israel soah rhaengsang la nang kang khueh. Tedae Jeroboam kah longpuei ah na pongpa tih ka pilnam Israel te na tholh sak dongah amih kah tholhnah neh kai nan veet.
3 So now I will consume Baasha and his house, and I will make your house like that of Jeroboam son of Nebat:
Baasha hnuk neh a imkhui hnuk te ka hlawp pah coeng he. Te dongah na imkhui te Nebat capa Jeroboam imkhui bangla kang khueh ni.
4 Anyone belonging to Baasha who dies in the city will be eaten by dogs, and anyone who dies in the field will be eaten by the birds of the air.”
Khopuei ah Baasha kah a duek rhok te ui loh a caak vetih kohong kah a duek rhok te vaan kah vaa loh a caak ni,” a ti.
5 As for the rest of the acts of Baasha, along with his accomplishments and might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Baasha kah ol noi neh a saii te khaw, a thayung thamal khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek moenih a?
6 And Baasha rested with his fathers and was buried in Tirzah, and his son Elah reigned in his place.
Baasha te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah Tirzah ah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Elah te anih yueng la manghai.
7 Moreover, the word of the LORD came through the prophet Jehu son of Hanani against Baasha and his house, because of all the evil he had done in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger with the work of his hands and becoming like the house of Jeroboam, and also because Baasha had struck down the house of Jeroboam.
BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae cungkuem a saii tih a kut saii neh amah a veet dongah, Jeroboam imkhui bangla khueh hamla, Hanani capa tonghma Jehu kut ah khaw Baasha ham neh a imkhui hamla BOEIPA ol ha pawk. Te dongah ni anih te a ngawn.
8 In the twenty-sixth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Elah son of Baasha became king of Israel, and he reigned in Tirzah two years.
Judah manghai Asa kah a kum kul kum rhuk vaengah Baasha capa Elah he Tirzah kah Israel ah kum nit manghai.
9 However, while Elah was in Tirzah getting drunk in the house of Arza the steward of his household there, Elah’s servant Zimri, the commander of half his chariots, conspired against him.
Anih tah amah kah sal, leng caem rhakthuem mangpa Zimri loh a taeng. Te vaengah amh te Tirzah kah Tirzah im tawt Arza im ah a ok tih rhui.
10 So in the twenty-seventh year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Zimri went in, struck Elah down, and killed him. And Zimri reigned in his place.
Zimri a pawk vaengah Elah te a ngawn tih a duek sak. Judah manghai Asa kah kum kul kum rhih vaengah Elah yueng la manghai.
11 As soon as Zimri began to reign and was seated on the throne, he struck down the entire household of Baasha. He did not leave a single male, whether a kinsman or friend.
A manghai neh a ngolkhoel dongah a ngol vanbangla Baasha imkhui te boeih a ngawn tih pangbueng aka yun thil khaw, a tlan sa khaw, a hui khaw hlun pawh.
12 So Zimri destroyed the entire household of Baasha, according to the word that the LORD had spoken against Baasha through Jehu the prophet.
BOEIPA ol bangla Zimri loh Baasha imkhui te boeih a mitmoeng sak. Te te Baasha hamla tonghma Jehu kut ah ana thui coeng.
13 This happened because of all the sins Baasha and his son Elah had committed and had caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.
Baasha kah tholhnah cungkuem neh a capa Elah kah tholhnah dongah tholh uh. Te dongah Israel te a tholh sak tih amih kah a honghi neh Israel Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.
14 As for the rest of the acts of Elah, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Elah kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Zimri reigned in Tirzah for seven days. Now the troops were encamped against Gibbethon of the Philistines,
Judah manghai Asa kah kum kul kum rhih, Tirzah ah Zimri hnin rhih a manghai vaengah pilnam loh Philisti kah Gibbethon a rhaeh rhil.
16 and the people in the camp heard that Zimri had not only conspired but had also struck down the king. So there in the camp that very day, all Israel proclaimed Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel.
Pilnam aka rhaeh loh a yaak vaengah, “Zimri loh a taeng tih manghai te khaw a ngawn,” a ti uh. Te dongah Israel pum loh Israel sokah caempuei mangpa Omri te rhaehhmuen khuiah hnin at neh a manghai sakuh.
17 Then Omri and all the Israelites marched up from Gibbethon and besieged Tirzah.
Te dongah Omri neh a taengkah Israel pum tah Gibbethon lamloh thoeih uh tih Tirzah te a dum uh.
18 When Zimri saw that the city was captured, he entered the citadel of the royal palace and burned it down upon himself. So he died
Khopuei a buem pah te Zimri loh a hmuh van neh manghai im kah impuei la kun. Te phoeiah manghai im te a kaep ah hmai neh a hoeh tih amah khaw duek.
19 because of the sins he had committed, doing evil in the sight of the LORD and following the example of Jeroboam and the sin he had committed and had caused Israel to commit.
A tholhnah dongah a tholhnah bangla BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii te tholh coeng. Israel te tholh sak ham aka saii Jeroboam kah longpuei neh a tholhnah dongah ni a pongpa.
20 As for the rest of the acts of Zimri and the treason he committed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Zimri kah ol noi, a lairhui neh a ven khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
21 At that time the people of Israel were divided: Half of the people supported Tibni son of Ginath as king, and half supported Omri.
Te vaengah Israel pilnam he rhakthuem la vik a paek. Pilnam rhakthuem te Ginath capa Tibni taengah om tih amah te a manghai sak. A rhakthuem te Omri hnuk a vai.
22 But the followers of Omri proved stronger than those of Tibni son of Ginath. So Tibni died and Omri became king.
Tedae Omri hnukkah pilnam loh Ginath capa Tibni hnukah pilnam te a khuk vaengah Tibni te duek tih Omri te manghai.
23 In the thirty-first year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned twelve years, six of them in Tirzah.
Judah manghai Asa kah kum sawmthum kum khat vaengah, Omri loh Israel kum hlai nit a manghai thil tih Tirzah ah kum rhuk manghai.
24 He bought the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver and built a city there, calling it Samaria after the name of Shemer, who had owned the hill.
Shemer taengkah Samaria tlang te cak talent panit neh a lai. Tlang soah kho a thoong tih a thoong khopuei ming te tlang kah boei Shemer ming neh Samaria la a khue.
25 But Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD and acted more wickedly than all who were before him.
Omri loh BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii tih amah hmai kah boeih lakah thae a huet.
26 For he walked in all the ways of Jeroboam son of Nebat and in his sins, which he caused Israel to commit, provoking the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger with their worthless idols.
Nebat capa Jeroboam kah longpuei neh anih kah tholhnah cungkuem dongah ni a pongpa. Anih kah tholhnah loh Israel te a tholh sak tih amih kah a honghi neh Israel Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.
27 As for the rest of the acts of Omri, along with his accomplishments and the might he exercised, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Omri kah ol noi a khueh te khaw, a thayung thamal neh a tueng sak te khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
28 And Omri rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab reigned in his place.
Omri te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah Samaria ah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Ahab te anih yueng la manghai.
29 In the thirty-eighth year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Ahab son of Omri became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria twenty-two years.
Judah manghai Asa kah kum sawmthum kum rhet kum vaengah Omri capa Ahab te Israel soah manghai. Omri capa Ahab loh Samaria kah Israel soah kum kul kum nit a manghai thil.
30 However, Ahab son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD, more than all who were before him.
Omri capa Ahab loh anih hmai kah boeih lakah khaw BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.
31 And as if it were not enough for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, he even married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and he then proceeded to serve and worship Baal.
Nebat capa Jeroboam kah tholhnah dongah a pongpa te phoeng a? A yuu te Sidoni manghai Ethbaal canu Jezebel te a loh. Cet bal tih Baal taengah tho a thueng tih a taengah bakop.
32 First, Ahab set up an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal that he had built in Samaria.
Baal hamla hmueihtuk a suem pah tih Samaria ah Baal im a sak.
33 Then he set up an Asherah pole. Thus Ahab did more to provoke the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel before him.
Ahab loh Asherah a saii. A saii te khaw amah hmai kah aka om Israel manghai boeih lakah khaw Israel Pathen BOEIPA a veet te Ahab loh a koei.
34 In Ahab’s days, Hiel the Bethelite rebuilt Jericho. At the cost of Abiram his firstborn he laid its foundation, and at the cost of Segub his youngest he set up its gates, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through Joshua son of Nun.
Anih tue vaengah Betheli Hiel loh Jerikho te a thoh. Nun capa Joshua kut ah a thui BOEIPA ol bangla a caming Abiram neh a toong tih a canoi Segub neh thohkhaih a pai sak.
