2 Kings 24
1 During Jehoiakim’s reign, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon invaded. So Jehoiakim became his vassal for three years, until he turned and rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar.
Anih tue vaengah te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh a muk. Te dongah Jehoiakim tah sal la kum thum om coeng dae mael tih Nebukhadnezzar te a tloelh.
2 And the LORD sent Chaldean, Aramean, Moabite, and Ammonite raiders against Jehoiakim in order to destroy Judah, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through His servants the prophets.
BOEIPA loh anih taengla Khalden caem neh Aram caem khaw, Moab caem rhoek neh Ammon koca kah caem khaw a tuieh pah. BOEIPA ol bangla anih milh sak ham amih te Judah la a tueih. Te a sal tonghma rhoek kut ah a thui coeng.
3 Surely this happened to Judah at the LORD’s command, to remove them from His presence because of the sins of Manasseh and all that he had done,
Manasseh kah tholhnah cungkuem a saii dongah BOEIPA ol bangla a mikhmuh lamloh khoe ham Judah taengah rhep thoeng coeng.
4 and also for the innocent blood he had shed. For he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the LORD was unwilling to forgive.
Ommongsitoe thii khaw a long sak tih Jerusalem te ommongsitoe thii loh a li. Te dongah BOEIPA loh khodawkngai ham huem pawh.
5 As for the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Jehoiakim kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
6 And Jehoiakim rested with his fathers, and his son Jehoiachin reigned in his place.
Jehoiakim te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah a capa Jehoiakhin te anih yueng la manghai.
7 Now the king of Egypt did not march out of his land again, because the king of Babylon had taken all his territory, from the Brook of Egypt to the Euphrates River.
Te vaengah Egypt manghai taengah aka om boeih te Egypt soklong lamloh Perath tuiva hil te Babylon manghai loh a loh pah coeng dongah Egypt manghai loh a khohmuen lamkah mop hamla koep khoep voel pawh.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Nehushta daughter of Elnathan; she was from Jerusalem.
Jehoiakhin he kum hlai rhet a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah hla thum manghai. A manu ming tah Jerusalem lamkah Elnathan canu Nehushta ni.
9 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as his father had done.
A napa rhoek kah a saii bang boeih la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii bal.
10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched up to Jerusalem, and the city came under siege.
Te vaeng tue ah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kah sal rhoek te Jerusalem la cet, cet uh tih khopuei te vongup ah a om sak.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city while his servants were besieging it.
Te dongah khopuei la Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar a pawk vaengah tah a sal rhoek loh khopuei te ana dum uh coeng.
12 Jehoiachin king of Judah, his mother, his servants, his commanders, and his officials all surrendered to the king of Babylon. So in the eighth year of his reign, the king of Babylon took him captive.
Judah manghai Jehoiakhin loh a manu khaw, a sal rhoek khaw, a mangpa rhoek khaw, a imkhoem rhoek khaw Babylon manghai taengla a kun puei. Te dongah anih te a manghai nah kum rhet vaengah Babylon manghai loh a khuen.
13 As the LORD had declared, Nebuchadnezzar also carried off all the treasures from the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and he cut into pieces all the gold articles that Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the LORD.
Te lamlong tah BOEIPA im kah thakvoh neh manghai im kah thakvoh khaw boeih a phueih pah. BOEIPA kah a thui bangla BOEIPA bawkim ham Israel manghai Solomon loh a saii sui hnopai cungkuem te khaw a khuen.
14 He carried into exile all Jerusalem—all the commanders and mighty men of valor, all the craftsmen and metalsmiths—ten thousand captives in all. Only the poorest people of the land remained.
Jerusalem boeih neh mangpa boeih te khaw a poelyoe tih tatthai hlangrhalh rhoek thawng rha boeih a poelyoe. Khohmuen pilnam kah khodaeng bueng phoeiah tah kutthai neh thidae khaw boeih paih pawh.
15 Nebuchadnezzar carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, as well as the king’s mother, his wives, his officials, and the leading men of the land. He took them into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Te vaengah Jehoiakhin te khaw, manghai manu khaw, manghai yuu rhoek khaw, a imkhoem rhoek neh khohmuen kah tutal hlang ang rhoek khaw, Babylon la a poelyoe tih Jerusalem lamloh Babylon ah vangsawn la a khuen.
16 The king of Babylon also brought into exile to Babylon all seven thousand men of valor and a thousand craftsmen and metalsmiths—all strong and fit for battle.
Te vaengah tatthai hlang boeih thawng rhih, kutthai neh thidae thawng khat, caemtloek aka noeng hlangrhalh boeih khaw Babylon manghai loh Babylon ah vangsawn la a khuen.
17 Then the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s uncle, king in his place and changed his name to Zedekiah.
Babylon manghai loh Jehoiakhin yueng la a napanoe Mattaniah a manghai sak tih a ming te Zedekiah la a hoi pah.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah.
Zedekiah he kum kul kum khat a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai khat manghai. A manu ming Hamutal tah Libnah lamkah Jeremiah canu Hamutal ni.
19 And Zedekiah did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.
Anih khaw Jehoiakim kah a saii bang boeih la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.
20 For because of the anger of the LORD, all this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until He finally banished them from His presence. And Zedekiah also rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Amih te a mikhmuh lamloh a voeih hil BOEIPA kah thintoek he Jerusalem taeng neh Judah taengah om pueng. Tedae Zedekiah loh Babylon manghai te a tloelh.
