2 Kings 16
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham became king of Judah.
Israel lengpa Pekah in lengvai ahop kal kum somle sagi lhinin, Jotham chapa Ahaz chun Judah gam’ah lengvai ahin hom pantan ahi.
2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD his God.
Ahaz chu leng achan chun kum somni alhingtan ahi. Aman Jerusalem’ah kum somle gup sungin lengvai ana hom’in ahi. Aman apu David khunung ajuijin Pathen Pakai mitmu’n thilpha jeng ana bolpon ahi.
3 Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
Hichesang chun, Israel lengho umchan teho ana juiyin, achapatah jeng jong kilhaina dingin ana tohdoh in ahi. Hiti chun aman Pathenin Israel mite masanga ana deldoh peh’u Pathen neilou nam mite thet umtah thil anabolji houchu ana juitan ahi.
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
Aman kilhaina gantha anabollin, doi phung leh thinglhang chunglah thingdo-eng noi tinnah gimnamtui ana lhut’in ahi.
5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to wage war against Jerusalem. They besieged Ahaz but could not overcome him.
Hijou chun Syria lengpa Rezin leh Israel lengpa Pekah chu Jerusalem sat dingin ahungtou lhontan ahi. Amanin Ahaz anokhum lhonin ahinlah ana jou lhonpon ahi.
6 At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, drove out the men of Judah, and sent the Edomites into Elath, where they live to this day.
Hichelai phat tah chun Edom lengpan Elath khopi chu Edom mite dingin agalelah kittan ahi. Aman Judah techu adeldoh in Edom mite chu-achun achen lutsah in, tuni geijin achengun ahi.
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against me.”
Ahaz lengpan Assyria lengpa Tiglath-pileser chu thu athot in, “Keima hi nanoija um nasoh kahin, hungtou vinlang Israel lengpa le Syria lengpan eihung delkhum lhonna akon hin neihung huhdoh’in,” atin ahi.
8 Ahaz also took the silver and gold found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
Hijou chun Ahaz in Pakai houin’a konin sana, dangka holeh leng inpia sumlepai kholna a konin sana le dagka ho achomkhom in Assyria lengpa chu athot tan ahi.
9 So the king of Assyria responded to him, marched up to Damascus, and captured it. He took its people to Kir as captives and put Rezin to death.
Hiti chun Assyria lengpan Syria khopi Damascus chu anokhum’in amipite chu gal hingin akaijin Kir gamsungah achen sah tan ahi. Aman Rezin lengpa jong chu athat’in ahi.
10 Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. On seeing the altar in Damascus, King Ahaz sent Uriah the priest a model of the altar and complete plans for its construction.
Ahaz lengpa chu Assyria lengpa Tiglath-pileser toh kimuto dingin Damascus a achen ahi. Hilai munna aum petchun, aman maicham phung kiboldan hochu aven amelchih in, hijouchun aman alimdan hochu hoitah in ajih doh in Uriah thempupa chu athot tan ahi.
11 And Uriah the priest built the altar according to all the instructions King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, and he completed it by the time King Ahaz had returned.
Uriah chun lengpan ahilna ajuijin, maicham phungkhat alim ahung kithot taobang bang chun ana semdoh in, lengpa Damascus akona ahung kile tengleh avet dingin gonsan akoitan ahi.
12 When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings on it.
Lengpa ahung kilephat’in, hiche maicham phung chu aga kholchil in, hichun pumgo thilto abolpai tai.
13 He offered his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings on the altar.
Aman pumgo thilto atoh in, lhosoh thilto jong atoh in, lengpithei thilto jong achunga asunglhan chuleh maicham chunga chun chamna thilto thisan jong athe khum in ahi.
14 He also took the bronze altar that stood before the LORD from the front of the temple (between the new altar and the house of the LORD) and he put it on the north side of the new altar.
Hijou chun Ahaz lengpan maicham thah leh lutna lampi kikah aum Pakai houin maija um sum-englui maicham chu aladoh in, maicham thahpa sahlanga chun achontan ahi.
15 Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Offer on the great altar the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, and the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, as well as the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings of all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar to seek guidance.”
Aman Uriah thempupa kom’ah chun, “Hiche maicham thahpa hi, jingkah a pumgo thilto kihalna dingleh, nilhah lang’a lhohsoh thilto ho to nading, lengpa pumgo thilto tonading, chuleh mipitehojouse pumgo thitona chuleh lhohso thilto leh atuija kisunglha tonading ahi. Govam thilto hole pumgo thilto jouse a kona athisan chu maicham thah chunga hi athisan nathekhum ding ahi. Sum-eng maicham vang hi keima chang maicham ding ahi,” ati.
16 So Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had commanded.
Uriah thempupan jong Ahaz lengpan aseipeh bang bangin abollin ahi.
17 King Ahaz also cut off the frames of the movable stands and removed the bronze basin from each of them. He took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone base.
Ahaz lengpa chun Houin a kimang sum-eng kangtalai ho chengse chu aphelhan, hichea kon chun kisilna kongchu atoldoh paijin anoija kidinsah sum-eng bongchal ho chunga konin twikong chu adom lhan, chuin song inbul khat ah akoitai.
18 And on account of the king of Assyria, he removed the Sabbath canopy they had built in the temple and closed the royal entryway outside the house of the LORD.
Assyria lengpa lunglhai sah tei ding gotnan, Ahaz lengpan houin sung a kisa, cholngah nikhoa lengte thusei nap hung aladoh in, chujongle houin sunga lengpa achengseh lutna kotpi geiyin atoldoh sohtai.
19 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Ahaz vaihom sunga thilsoh jouseleh aman anatoh ho aboncha Judah lengte thusim bua kijihlut sohkei ahi.
20 And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David, and his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
Ahaz athi phat’in David khopia apu apate kivuina munah avui tauvin ahi. Hijouchun achapa Hezekiah chu ama khellin lengmun alotan ahi.
