2 Chronicles 30
1 Then Hezekiah sent word throughout all Israel and Judah, and he also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh inviting them to come to the house of the LORD in Jerusalem to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel.
Hezekiah loh Israel pum neh Judah a tah tih Ephraim neh Manasseh ham khaw Jerusalem kah BOEIPA im la a mop ham neh, Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengah Yoom saii ham te ca a daek pah.
2 For the king and his officials and the whole assembly in Jerusalem had decided to keep the Passover in the second month,
A hla bae dongah tah Yoom saii hamla manghai khaw, a mangpa rhoek khaw, Jerusalem kah hlangping boeih khaw a thui uh.
3 since they had been unable to observe it at the regular time, because not enough priests had consecrated themselves and the people had not been gathered in Jerusalem.
Tedae Yoom te te vaeng tue ah saii hamla noeng uh pawh. Khosoih rhoek khaw a rhoeh hil ciim uh hlan tih pilnam khaw Jerusalem ah tingtun hlan.
4 This proposal pleased the king and the whole assembly.
Te vaengah ol he manghai mikhmuh ah khaw, hlangping boeih kah mikhmuh ah khaw dueng ngawn.
5 So they established a decree to circulate a proclamation throughout Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that the people should come to keep the Passover of the LORD, the God of Israel, in Jerusalem. For they had not observed it as a nation as prescribed.
A daek bangla a saii uh dae a cungkuem uh pawt dongah, Israel Pathen BOEIPA kah Yoom saii vaengah tah Jerusalem la mop sak ham, Israel pum ah, Beersheba lamloh Dan duela olthang pat ham ol a cak sak uh.
6 So the couriers went throughout Israel and Judah with letters from the king and his officials, which read: “Children of Israel, return to the LORD, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that He may return to those of you who remain, who have escaped the grasp of the kings of Assyria.
Manghai neh a mangpa rhoek kut dongkah ca aka yong puei rhoek tah Judah neh Israel pum ah cet uh tih manghai olpaek bangla, “Israel ca rhoek aw, Abraham, Isaak, Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengla mael uh laeh. Te daengah ni nangmih aka sueng rhoek te Assyria manghai kut lamloh loeihnah la a mael eh.
7 Do not be like your fathers and brothers who were unfaithful to the LORD, the God of their fathers, so that He made them an object of horror, as you can see.
A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA taengah boe aka koek na pa rhoek neh na manuca rhoek bangla om uh boeh. Te dongah amih te na hmuh uh bangla imsuep la a khueh.
8 Now do not stiffen your necks as your fathers did. Submit to the LORD and come to His sanctuary, which He has consecrated forever. Serve the LORD your God, so that His fierce anger will turn away from you.
Tahae atah na pa rhoek bangla na rhawn te mangkhak sak uh boeh. BOEIPA taengah kut duen uh laeh. Kumhal hamla a ciim tangtae a rhokso kungla ha mop uh lamtah na Pathen BOEIPA taengah thothueng uh. Te daengah ni a thintoek thinsa te nangmih taeng lamloh a mael eh.
9 For if you return to the LORD, your brothers and sons will receive mercy in the presence of their captors and will return to this land. For the LORD your God is gracious and merciful; He will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.”
BOEIPA taengla na mael uh mak atah na manuca rhoek neh na ca rhoek khaw, amih aka sol rhoek kah mikhmuh ah haidamnah la, te phoeiah he khohmuen la ha mael ni. Nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA tah lungvatnah neh thinphoei la a om dongah a taengla na mael uh atah nangmih taeng lamloh maelhmai mangthung mahpawh,” a ti nah.
10 And the couriers traveled from city to city through the land of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun; but the people scorned and mocked them.
Te phoeiah ca thak la aka om rhoek te khopuei lamloh khopuei khat hil, Ephraim neh Manasseh khohmuen neh Zebulun duela cet uh. Tedae amih aka nueih thil neh amih aka tamdaeng la om uh.
11 Nevertheless, some from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.
Te cakhaw Asher lamkah, Manasseh neh Zebulun lamkah hlang rhoek tah kunyun uh tih Jerusalem la pawk uh.
12 Moreover, the power of God was on the people in Judah to give them one heart to obey the command of the king and his officials according to the word of the LORD.
BOEIPA ol dongah manghai neh mangpa rhoek olpaek te vai sak ham, amih te lungbuei pakhat la khueh sak ham te Pathen kah kut tah Judah ah om bal coeng.
13 In the second month, a very great assembly gathered in Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
A hla bae dongah tah vaidamding khotue te saii hamla pilnam loh Jerusalem ah muep tingtun uh tih hlangping khaw muep cungkuem uh.
14 They proceeded to remove the altars in Jerusalem and to take away the incense altars and throw them into the Kidron Valley.
Te dongah thoo uh tih Jerusalem kah hmueihtuk te a khoe uh. Hlupnah hnopai boeih te khaw a khoe uh tih Kidron soklong la a voeih uh.
15 And on the fourteenth day of the second month they slaughtered the Passover lamb. The priests and Levites were ashamed, and they consecrated themselves and brought burnt offerings to the house of the LORD.
A hla bae dongkah hnin hlai li vaengah tah Yoom te a ngawn uh. Te vaengah khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek tah a hmaithae uh. Te dongah a ciim uh phoeiah hmueihhlutnah te BOEIPA im la a khuen uh.
16 They stood at their prescribed posts, according to the Law of Moses the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood, which they received from the hand of the Levites.
Pathen kah hlang Moses olkhueng dongkah a laitloeknah bangla amamih paihmuen ah pai uh. Khosoih rhoek loh Levi kut lamkah thii te a haeh uh.
17 Since there were many in the assembly who had not consecrated themselves, the Levites were in charge of slaughtering the Passover lambs for every unclean person to consecrate the lambs to the LORD.
Hlangping lakli ah aka ciim uh pawt khaw muep om. Te dongah aka cim pawt boeih kah Yoom ngawnnah ham neh BOEIPA taengah ciim ham te Levi rhoek loh a hut nah.
18 A large number of the people—many from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun—had not purified themselves, yet they ate the Passover, contrary to what was written. But Hezekiah interceded for them, saying, “May the LORD, who is good, provide atonement for everyone
A puehkan la pilnam aka ping Ephraim, Manasseh, Issakhar neh Zebulun lamkah tah caihcil uh pawt sitoe cakhaw a daek tangtae neh kalthalh la Yoom a caak uh. Tedae Hezekiah loh amih ham thangthui tih, “BOEIPA aw, a then la dawth pah mai saeh.
19 who sets his heart on seeking God—the LORD, the God of his fathers—even if he is not cleansed according to the purification rules of the sanctuary.”
Hmuencim kah ciimnah bangla om pawt cakhaw a napa rhoek kah Pathen, YAHWEH Pathen te toem hamla a thinko boeih a cikngae sak,” a ti.
20 And the LORD heard Hezekiah and healed the people.
BOEIPA loh Hezekiah taengkah te a yaak van neh pilnam te a hoeih sak.
21 The Israelites who were present in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great joy, and the Levites and priests praised the LORD day after day, accompanied by loud instruments of praise to the LORD.
Jerusalem ah aka mop Israel ca rhoek loh hnin rhih khuiah vaidamding khotue te a saii uh. Hnin bal hnin bal BOEIPA taengah kohoenah a len neh a thangthen uh. Khosoih neh Levi rhoek loh BOEIPA te a sarhi tumbael neh a thangthen uh.
22 And Hezekiah encouraged all the Levites who performed skillfully before the LORD. For seven days they ate their assigned portion, sacrificing fellowship offerings and giving thanks to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
BOEIPA kah lungmingnah then neh aka cangbam Levi pum kah lungbuei ah Hezekiah loh a thui pah. Te dongah hnin rhih tingtunnah khuiah tah rhoepnah hmueih la a nawn te a caak uh tih a napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA te a uem uh.
23 The whole assembly agreed to observe seven more days, so they observed seven days with joy.
Te phoeiah hnin rhih koep saii ham te hlangping boeih loh a thui dongah kohoenah neh hnin rhih a saii uh.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah contributed a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep for the assembly, and the officials contributed a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep for the assembly, and a great number of priests consecrated themselves.
Judah manghai Hezekiah loh hlangping ham vaito thawng khat, boiva thawng rhih a pom pah. Mangpa rhoek long khaw hlangping ham te vaito thawng khat, boiva thawng rha a pom pah tih khosoih rhoek te a cungkuem la a ciim uh.
25 Then the whole assembly of Judah rejoiced along with the priests and Levites and the whole assembly that had come from Israel, including the foreigners who had come from Israel and those who lived in Judah.
Te vaengah Judah hlangping boeih khaw, khosoih neh Levi rhoek khaw, Israel lamkah aka pawk hlangping boeih neh Israel khohmuen lamkah aka pawk yinlai khaw, Judah kah khosa rhoek kaw a kohoe uh.
26 So there was great rejoicing in Jerusalem, for nothing like this had happened there since the days of Solomon son of David king of Israel.
Te dongah Jerusalem ah kohoenah a len om coeng. Israel manghai David capa Solomon tue lamloh he bang he Jerusalem ah a om noek moenih.
27 Then the priests and the Levites stood to bless the people, and God heard their voice, and their prayer came into His holy dwelling place in heaven.
Levi khosoih rhoek te pai uh tih pilnam yoethen a paek uh. Amih kah thangthuinah loh a hmuencim kah khuirhung vaan duela a pha dongah amih ol te a hnatun pah.
