2 Chronicles 36
1 Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah and made him king in Jerusalem in place of his father.
Khohmuen pilnam loh Josiah capa Jehoahaz te a loh uh tih anih te a napa yueng la Jerusalem ah a manghai sakuh.
2 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months.
Jehoahaz a manghai vaengah kum kul kum thum lo ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah hla thum manghai.
3 And the king of Egypt dethroned him in Jerusalem and imposed on Judah a levy of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
Tedae anih te Egypt manghai loh Jerusalem ah a khoe tih khohmuen te cak talent yakhat, sui talent khat neh a sah sak.
4 Then Neco king of Egypt made Eliakim brother of Jehoahaz king over Judah and Jerusalem, and he changed Eliakim’s name to Jehoiakim. But Neco took Eliakim’s brother Jehoahaz and carried him off to Egypt.
Egypt manghai loh Jehoahaz mana Eliakim te Judah neh Jerusalem ah a manghai sak tih a ming te Jehoiakim la a tho pah. Tedae a maya Jehoahaz te tah Neko loh a loh tih Egypt la a khuen.
5 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. And he did evil in the sight of the LORD his God.
Jehoiakim te a manghai vaengah kum kul neh kum nga lo ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai khat manghai. Tedae a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae ni a saii.
6 Then Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jehoiakim and bound him with bronze shackles to take him to Babylon.
Anih te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh a muk tih anih te Babylon la khuen ham rhohum neh a khih.
7 Nebuchadnezzar also took to Babylon some of the articles from the house of the LORD, and he put them in his temple in Babylon.
BOEIPA im kah hnopai te khaw Nebukhanezar loh Babylon la a khuen. Te te Babylon kah amah bawkim ah a khueh.
8 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, the abominations he committed, and all that was found against him, they are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah. And his son Jehoiachin reigned in his place.
Jehoiakim kah ol kah noi neh amah kah tueilaehkoi a saii te khaw, anih taengah aka thoeng te khaw, te rhoek te Israel neh Judah manghai rhoek kah cabu dongah a daek coeng ke. Te phoeiah a capa Jehoiakhin te anih yueng la manghai.
9 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months and ten days. And he did evil in the sight of the LORD.
Jehoiakhin a manghai vaengah kum rhet lo ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah hla thum neh hnin rha manghai. Tedae BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae ni a saii.
10 In the spring, King Nebuchadnezzar summoned Jehoiachin and brought him to Babylon, along with the articles of value from the house of the LORD. And he made Jehoiachin’s relative Zedekiah king over Judah and Jerusalem.
Kum a thok vaengah tah manghai Nebukhanezar loh hlang a tueih tih anih te BOEIPA im kah sahnaih hnopai neh Babylon la a khuen. Te phoeiah a manuca Zedekiah te Judah neh Jerusalem ah a manghai sak.
11 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years.
Zedekiah a manghai vaengah kum kul neh kum khat loh ca pueng tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai khat manghai.
12 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD his God and did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke for the LORD.
Tedae a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae ni a saii. BOEIPA olka dongkah tonghma Jeremiah mikhmuh ah khaw a kunyun moenih.
13 He also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God. But Zedekiah stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against turning to the LORD, the God of Israel.
Manghai Nebukhanezar te khaw a tloelh tih anih te Pathen neh a toemngam thil. A rhawn te a siing tih Israel Pathen BOEIPA taengla mael ham khaw a thin te thah.
14 Furthermore, all the leaders of the priests and the people multiplied their unfaithful deeds, following all the abominations of the nations, and they defiled the house of the LORD, which He had consecrated in Jerusalem.
Khosoih rhoek neh pilnam mangpa boeih khaw boekoek la ping uh. Namtom rhoek kah tueilaehkoi bang boeih la boekoeknah neh boe a koek uh tih Jerusalem ah a ciim BOEIPA im te a poeih uh.
15 Again and again the LORD, the God of their fathers, sent word to His people through His messengers because He had compassion on them and on His dwelling place.
A pilnam so neh a khuirhung soah khaw lungma a ti dongah thoh ham neh tueih hamla a napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA loh amih taengla a puencawn rhoek kut neh a tueih.
16 But they mocked the messengers of God, despising His words and scoffing at His prophets, until the wrath of the LORD against His people was stirred up beyond remedy.
Tedae Pathen kah puencawn rhoek taengah pahoeh palaeh la om uh. Te dongah a ol te a sawtsit uh tih a tonghma rhoek te a phok uh. A pilnam taengah hoeihnah a om pawt hil BOEIPA kah kosi a paan uh aih.
17 So He brought up against them the king of the Chaldeans, who put their young men to the sword in the sanctuary, sparing neither young men nor young women, neither elderly nor infirm. God gave them all into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar,
Te dongah amih taengla Khalden kah Khalden manghai te a thak pah tih a tongpang rhoek te amamih kah rhokso im ah cunghang neh a ngawn pah. Tongpang neh oila khaw, patong neh hamca khaw lungma ti kolla anih kut ah boeih a paek.
18 who carried off everything to Babylon—all the articles of the house of God, both large and small, and the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king and his officials.
Pathen im kah hnopai boeih a yit a len khaw, BOEIPA im kah thakvoh khaw, manghai neh a mangpa rhoek kah thakvoh khaw, Babylon la boeih pawk.
19 Then the Chaldeans set fire to the house of God and broke down the wall of Jerusalem. They burned down all the palaces and destroyed every article of value.
Pathen im te a hoeh uh tih Jerusalem vongtung te a palet uh. A impuei boeih te hmai neh a hoeh uh tih a ngailaemnah hnopai boeih te khaw a phae uh.
20 Those who escaped the sword were carried by Nebuchadnezzar into exile in Babylon, and they became servants to him and his sons until the kingdom of Persia came to power.
cunghang lamkah aka a meet rhoek te Babylon la a poelyoe tih amah taeng neh a ca rhoek taengah Persia ram a manghai hil sal la om uh.
21 So the land enjoyed its Sabbath rest all the days of the desolation, until seventy years were completed, in fulfillment of the word of the LORD through Jeremiah.
Jeremiah ka dongkah BOEIPA ol te cup ham dongah khohmuen loh a Sabbath a ngaingaih hil a pong khohnin te kum sawmrhih boeih a cup duela kangkuen.
22 In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, to fulfill the word of the LORD spoken through Jeremiah, the LORD stirred the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia to send a proclamation throughout his kingdom and to put it in writing as follows:
Persia manghai Cyrus kah kum khat vaengah tah Jeremiah ka dongkah BOEIPA ol te a cup sak ham BOEIPA loh Persia manghai Cyrus kah mueihla te a haeng pah. Te dongah a ram pum ah ol a thak tih cadaek nen khaw,
23 “This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: ‘The LORD, the God of heaven, who has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, has appointed me to build a house for Him at Jerusalem in Judah. Whoever among you belongs to His people, may the LORD his God be with him, and may he go up.’”
“Persia manghai Cyrus loh he ni a thui. Diklai ram tom he vaan kah Pathen BOEIPA loh kai taengah m'paek coeng. Amah loh kai he Judah kah Jerusalem ah a im sa la m'hmoel coeng. Nangmih khuikah long te khaw a pilnam cungkuem taeng lamloh a taengkah a Pathen BOEIPA neh pongpa saeh,” a ti nah.
