< 2 Chronicles 26 >
1 All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
Judah pilnam pum loh Uzziah te a loh uh tih anih te kum hlai rhuk a lo ca vaengah a napa Amaziah yueng la a manghai sak uh.
2 Uzziah was the one who rebuilt Eloth and restored it to Judah after King Amaziah rested with his fathers.
Anih loh Elath te a sak tih manghai te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh hnukah tah Judah la a mael puei.
3 Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-two years. His mother’s name was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem.
Uzziah te kum hlai rhuk a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah sawmnga kum nit manghai. A manu ming tah Jerusalem lamkah Jekoliah ni.
4 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Amaziah had done.
A napa Amaziah loh a saii bang boeih la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem a saii.
5 He sought God throughout the days of Zechariah, who instructed him in the fear of God. And as long as he sought the LORD, God gave him success.
Anih te Pathen hmuh hamla aka yakming Zekhariah tue vaengah tah Pathen aka toem la om. Te dongah BOEIPA a toem khohnin vaengah tah Pathen loh anih te a thaihtak sak.
6 Uzziah went out to wage war against the Philistines, and he tore down the walls of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod. Then he built cities near Ashdod and among the Philistines.
Te phoeiah cet tih Philisti a vathoh thil tih Gath vongtung, Jabneh vongtung, Ashdod vongtung a phae. Te phoeiah Ashdod khuikah neh Philisti khuikah khopuei te a sak.
7 God helped him against the Philistines, against the Arabs living in Gur-baal, and against the Meunites.
Philisti taeng neh Arab taengah khaw anih te Pathen loh a bom. Arab rhoek te Gurbaal neh Mehunim ah kho a sak uh.
8 The Ammonites brought tribute to Uzziah, and his fame spread as far as the border of Egypt, for he had become exceedingly powerful.
Ammoni loh Uzziah taengla khocang a paek uh. Anih te a so la tlung hang tih Egypt khorhi duela a ming thang.
9 Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, the Valley Gate, and the angle in the wall, and he fortified them.
Uzziah loh rhaltoengim te Jerusalem kah bangkil vongka ah khaw, kolrhawk vongka ah khaw, imki ah khaw a sak tih a moem.
10 Since he had much livestock in the foothills and in the plain, he built towers in the desert and dug many cisterns. And since he was a lover of the soil, he had farmers and vinedressers in the hill country and in the fertile fields.
Khosoek ah rhaltoengim a sak tih tuito khaw muep a vueh. Anih taengah boiva muep om tih kolrhawk ah khaw, tlangkol ah khaw, lopho neh, tlang kah dumpho neh, khohmuen aka lungnah ham cangphil cangngol neh a om pah.
11 Uzziah had an army ready for battle that went out to war by assigned divisions, as recorded by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the officer under the direction of Hananiah, one of the royal officers.
Uzziah taengah caempuei la a khuen vaengah caemtloek aka saii tatthai khaw om. Caem kah a cawhnah hlangmi bangla cadaek Jeiel Jeuel kut neh manghai mangpa lamkah Hananiah kut hmuikah rhoiboei Maaseiah kut ah a khueh.
12 The total number of family leaders of the mighty men of valor was 2,600.
A napa rhoek kah boeilu hlangmi boeih he tatthai hlangrhalh thawng hnih ya rhuk lo.
13 Under their authority was an army of 307,500 trained for war, a powerful force to support the king against his enemies.
Amih kut hmuiah caempuei tatthai thawng ya thum thawng rhih ya nga om tih thunkha taengah khaw manghai aka bom ham tatthai thadueng neh caemtloek la phaep uh.
14 Uzziah supplied the entire army with shields, spears, helmets, armor, bows, and slingstones.
Amih caempuei boeih ham te Uzziah loh photling, cai, lumuek, caempho, lii, payai lungto khaw a hmoel pah.
15 And in Jerusalem he made skillfully designed devices to shoot arrows and catapult large stones from the towers and corners. So his fame spread far and wide, for he was helped tremendously so that he became powerful.
Rhaltoengim so neh bangkil soah aka om ham khaw, thaltang neh, lung nu neh aka kap ham khaw, aka poekkung kah kopoek neh Jerusalem ah seh a saii. Te dongah a tlung hil aka bom ham khaw khobaerhambae la om dongah a ming te khohla duela voelh thang.
16 But when Uzziah grew powerful, his arrogance led to his own destruction. He was unfaithful to the LORD his God, for he entered the temple of the LORD to burn incense on the altar of incense.
Tedae a thadueng hnukah a poci hil a lungbuei a sang dongah a Pathen BOEIPA taengah boe a koek. Te dongah bo-ul hmueihtuk dongah phum hamla BOEIPA bawkim ah kun.
17 Then Azariah the priest, along with eighty brave priests of the LORD, went in after him.
Anih hnukah khosoih Azariah neh a taengkah BOEIPA khosoih tatthai ca sawmrhet bang.
18 They took their stand against King Uzziah and said, “Uzziah, you have no right to offer incense to the LORD. Only the priests, the descendants of Aaron, are consecrated to burn incense. Leave the sanctuary, for you have acted unfaithfully; you will not receive honor from the LORD God.”
Te vaengah manghai Uzziah te a pai thil uh tih amah taengah, “BOEIPA taengah aka phum ham te Uzziah nang kah moenih. Tedae a phum hamla a ciim khosoih Aaron koca kah ni. Boe na koek dongah rhokso lamloh nong laeh. Nang kah te Pathen BOEIPA kah thangpomnah ham moenih,” a ti na uh.
19 Uzziah, with a censer in his hand to offer incense, was enraged. But while he raged against the priests in their presence in the house of the LORD before the altar of incense, leprosy broke out on his forehead.
Te dongah Uzziah loh a hmaital doela a kut dongah botui phum ham hmaibael a pom. Khosoih rhoek taengah khaw a hmai a tal li vaengah BOEIPA im khui, bo-ul hmueihtuk taeng kah khosoih rhoek mikhmuh ah a tal lamloh hmaibae a cuk pah.
20 When Azariah the chief priest and all the priests turned to him and saw his leprous forehead, they rushed him out. Indeed, he himself hurried to get out, because the LORD had afflicted him.
Khosoih boeilu Azariah neh khosoih boeih loh anih taengla a mael vaengah anih te a tal ah tarha pahuk coeng tih anih taengah hlawt let uh. BOEIPA loh anih te a ben dongah amah khaw khoe uh paitok coeng.
21 So King Uzziah was a leper until the day of his death. He lived in isolation, leprous and cut off from the house of the LORD, while his son Jotham had charge of the royal palace to govern the people of the land.
Te dongah manghai Uzziah te a dueknah hnin duela pahuk tih im hloeh ah kho a sak. A pahuk dongah BOEIPA im lamloh a hloeh la rhoe uh. Te vaengah a capa Jotham loh khohmuen pilnam te manghai im ah lai a tloek a pah.
22 As for the rest of the acts of Uzziah, from beginning to end, they are recorded by the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz.
Uzziah kah ol noi te a kung a dong khaw tonghma Amoz capa Isaiah loh a daek.
23 And Uzziah rested with his fathers and was buried near them in a field of burial that belonged to the kings; for the people said, “He was a leper.” And his son Jotham reigned in his place.
Uzziah te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah manghai te pahuk a ti uh tih phuel hmuen kah a napa rhoek taengah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Jotham te anih yueng la manghai.
