2 Chronicles 13
1 In the eighteenth year of Jeroboam’s reign, Abijah became king of Judah,
Siangpahrang Jeroboam a bawinae kum 18 navah, Abijah teh Judah ram dawk siangpahrang thaw a kamtawng.
2 and he reigned in Jerusalem three years. His mother’s name was Micaiah daughter of Uriel; she was from Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
Jerusalem kho dawk kum thum touh a bawi. A manu e min teh Mikhaiah, Gebeah tami Uriel e canu doeh. Hatnavah Abijah hoi Rehoboam teh a kâtuk roi.
3 Abijah went into battle with an army of 400,000 chosen men, while Jeroboam drew up in formation against him with 800,000 chosen and mighty men of valor.
Abijah ni tarankahawi ni teh tarantuk kathoum e 400,000 touh a rawi teh a tuk. Jeroboam ni hai tarankahawi ni teh taran katukthai tami 800,000 touh a rawi teh a tuk van.
4 Then Abijah stood on Mount Zemaraim in the hill country of Ephraim and said, “Hear me, O Jeroboam and all Israel!
Abijah teh Ephraim ram dawk e mon Zemaraim mon dawk a kangdue teh, Oe Jeroboam Isarelnaw abuemlahoi thai awh haw.
5 Do you not know that the LORD, the God of Israel, has given the kingship of Israel to David and his descendants forever by a covenant of salt?
Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni palawi hoi lawkkamnae, Isarel uknaeram teh Devit hoi a ca catounnaw koe yungyoe hanelah a poe toe tie hah na panuek awh hoeh maw.
6 Yet Jeroboam son of Nebat, a servant of Solomon son of David, rose up and rebelled against his master.
Hateiteh, Devit capa Solomon e san Nebat capa Jeroboam ni a bawipa a taran toe.
7 Then worthless and wicked men gathered around him to resist Rehoboam son of Solomon when he was young, inexperienced, and unable to resist them.
Solomon e capa Rehoboam teh a camo dawkvah pouklaknae hai a tawn hoeh rah dawkvah, a ngang thai hoeh torei teh, cungkeihoehe taminaw hoi tamikathoutnaw teh Rehoboam koe lah a kamkhueng awh.
8 And now you think you can resist the kingdom of the LORD, which is in the hands of David’s descendants. You are indeed a vast army, and you have with you the golden calves that Jeroboam made for you as gods.
Atu hai nangmouh ni Devit ca catounnaw kut dawk kaawm e BAWIPA e uknaeram tuk thai hanelah na pouk awh. Nangmanaw teh na pap poung awh. Jeroboam ni cathut lah na sak pouh e suimaitotanca hai nangmouh koe ao.
9 But did you not drive out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites? And did you not make priests for yourselves as do the peoples of other lands? Now whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams can become a priest of things that are not gods.
BAWIPA e vaihmanaw, Aron e capanaw hoi Levihnaw na takhoe teh, alouke miphunnaw ni a sak e patetlah vaihmanaw na hruek awh. Maitotanca hoi tu sari touh hoi kamthoung e tami pueng teh, na cathutnaw e vaihma lah na coung sak awh nahoehmaw.
10 But as for us, the LORD is our God. We have not forsaken Him; the priests who minister to the LORD are sons of Aaron, and the Levites attend to their duties.
Hatei, kaimanaw teh Cathut ka pahnawt awh hoeh. Hote Cathut teh kaimae BAWIPA doeh. BAWIPA e thaw ka tawk e vaihmanaw teh Aron miphunnaw doeh. Levihnaw hai amamae thaw lengkaleng a tawk awh.
11 Every morning and every evening they present burnt offerings and fragrant incense to the LORD. They set out the rows of showbread on the ceremonially clean table, and every evening they light the lamps of the gold lampstand. We are carrying out the requirements of the LORD our God, while you have forsaken Him.
Amom hoi tangminlah tangkuem BAWIPA hanelah hmaisawi thuengnae hoi hmuitui ouk a thueng awh. Paawng e vaiyei hai kathounge caboi dawk a hruek awh. Tangminlah tangkuem hmaisawi hanelah sui hmaiimkhok dawk hmaiim paang teh, kaimouh ni teh BAWIPA Cathut e kâpoelawknaw ka tarawi awh. Hatei, nangmouh ni teh ahni hah na pahnawt awh.
12 Now behold, God Himself is with us as our head, and His priests with their trumpets sound the battle call against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the LORD, the God of your fathers, for you will not succeed.”
Khenhaw! Cathut teh kaimouh koe ao teh, kaimae lû lahai ao. Vaihmanaw hai nangmanaw na tuk navah amamae kâhruetcuetnae mongka hah kâhruetcuet nahanlah ueng han lah ao awh. Oe Isarelnaw mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut tuk hanelah kâcai hanh awh. Na tuk awh pawiteh, na sung awh han telah atipouh.
13 Now Jeroboam had sent troops around to ambush from the rear, so that while he was in front of Judah, the ambush was behind them.
Hatei, Jeroboam ni a ransa tangawn hah Judah ransanaw a hnuklah arulah hoi pawp hanelah a patoun. Hahoi a tangawn teh hmalah hoi kalup vaiteh tuk hanelah a noe.
14 When Judah turned and discovered that the battle was both before and behind them, they cried out to the LORD. Then the priests blew the trumpets,
Judahnaw ni hnukhma lahoi a pawp awh e a panue toteh BAWIPA a kaw awh. Vaihmanaw ni hai mongka a ueng awh.
15 and the men of Judah raised the battle cry. And when they raised the cry, God routed Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
Hahoi Judahnaw a thaw awh teh puenghoi a hramki awh. Hottelah Judahnaw a hramki torei teh, Abijah hoi Judahnaw hmalah Jeroboam hoi Isarelnaw pueng Cathut ni taran a sung sak.
16 So the Israelites fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hands.
Isarelnaw teh Judahnaw e hmalah a yawng awh teh, Cathut ni ahnimae kut dawk a poe.
17 Then Abijah and his people struck them with a mighty blow, and 500,000 chosen men of Israel fell slain.
Abijah hoi a taminaw ni tami moikapap a thei awh teh, a rawi e tami 500000 touh a thei awh.
18 Thus the Israelites were subdued at that time, and the men of Judah prevailed because they relied on the LORD, the God of their fathers.
Judahnaw ni mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut kâuep awh dawkvah, Isarelnaw teh hatnavah taran a sung awh.
19 Abijah pursued Jeroboam and captured some cities from him: Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, along with their villages.
Hahoi Abijah ni Jeroboam a pâlei teh, Bethel khopui hoi khotenaw, Jeshanah khopui hoi khotenaw, Ephraim khopui hoi khotenaw, ahnie kut dawk hoi a lawp.
20 Jeroboam did not again recover his power during the days of Abijah, and the LORD struck him down and he died.
Abijah a hring nathung Jeroboam teh a tha bout sai thai hoeh. BAWIPA ni a hem teh a due.
21 But Abijah grew strong, married fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
Hatei, Abijah teh athakaawme lah ao teh a yu 14 touh a la, ca tongpa 22 touh hoi napui 16 touh a tawn.
22 Now the rest of the acts of Abijah, along with his ways and his words, are written in the Treatise of the Prophet Iddo.
Abijah ni a tawksak e kaawm rae hoi a nuencang a deipan e lawklungnaw teh profet Iddo e lairui cauk dawk thut lah ao.
