2 Chronicles 19
1 And Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, went back to his house in Jerusalem in peace.
Judah manghai Jehoshaphat tah Jerusalem kah amah im la sading la mael.
2 And Jehu, the son of Hanani the seer, went to King Jehoshaphat and said to him, Is it right for you to go to the help of evil-doers, loving the haters of the Lord? because of this, the wrath of the Lord has come on you.
Tedae Hanani capa khohmu Jehu tah a maelhmai hmuh hamla cet tih manghai Jehoshaphat te, “Halang te Bom hamla om a? BOEIPA kah a hmuhuet te na lungnah. Te dongah BOEIPA mikhmuh lamkah a thinhul he nang soah tla saeh.
3 But still there is some good in you, for you have put away the wood pillars out of the land, and have given your heart to the worship of God.
Tedae khohmuen lamkah Asherah te na hlup tih Pathen toem hamla na thinko na cikngae sak dongah na khuiah hno then la a hmuh uh,” a ti nah.
4 And Jehoshaphat was living in Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people, from Beer-sheba to the hill-country of Ephraim, guiding them back to the Lord, the God of their fathers.
Te phoeiah Jehoshaphat tah Jerusalem ah kho a sak. Te phoeiah mael tih pilnam te Beersheba lamloh Ephraim tlang duela a hip phoeiah tah amih te a napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA taengla a mael puei.
5 And he put judges through all the land, in every walled town of Judah,
Judah kah aka cak khopuei boeih kah khopuei, khopuei ah khohmuen kah laitloek rhoek te a khueh.
6 And said to the judges, Take care what you do, for you are judging not for man but for the Lord, and he is with you in the decisions you give.
Te phoeiah laitloek rhoek te, “Hlang ham pawt tih BOEIPA ham lai na tloek uh dongah mebang na saii khaw hmu uh. Nangmih taengah laitloeknah ol neh om coeng.
7 So now let the fear of the Lord be in you; do your work with care; for in the Lord our God there is no evil, or respect for high position, or taking of payment to do wrong.
BOEIPA dongah birhihnah te nangmih ah om pawn saeh. Ngaithuen lamtah saii uh. Mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA tah dumlai neh, maelhmai dannah, kapbaih lohnah neh a om moenih,” a ti nah.
8 Then in Jerusalem he gave authority to certain of the Levites and the priests and the heads of families of Israel to give decisions for the Lord, and in the causes of those living in Jerusalem.
Te phoeiah Jehoshaphat loh Levi neh khosoih rhoek lamkah khaw, Israel kah a napa boeilu rhoek khui lamkah khaw BOEIPA kah laitloeknah ham neh tuituknah vaengkah ham Jerusalem ah a khueh bal tih Jerusalem la mael uh.
9 And he gave them their orders, saying, You are to do your work in the fear of the Lord, in good faith and with a true heart.
Amih te khaw te a uen tih, “BOEIPA hinyahnah neh, uepomnah neh thinko rhuemtuet la bi saii uh tangloeng.
10 And if any cause comes before you from your brothers living in their towns, where the death punishment is in question, or where there are questions of law or order, or rules or decisions, make them take care that they are not in the wrong before the Lord, so that wrath may not come on you and on your brothers; do this and you yourselves will not be in the wrong.
Nangmih taengla aka pawk tuituknah boeih tah kho takuem kah, khosa na manuca taeng lamkah khaw, thii neh thii laklo ah, olkhueng neh olpaek bangla, oltlueh neh laitloeknah bangla amih te thuituen uh lamtah BOEIPA taengah boe uh boel saeh. Te dongah nangmih so neh na manuca soah a thinhulnah om ve. Te te na vai uh daengah ni na boe uh pawt eh.
11 And now, Amariah, the chief priest, is over you in all questions to do with the Lord; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the head of the family of Judah, in everything to do with the king's business; and the Levites will be overseers for you. Be strong to do the work; and may the Lord be with the upright.
BOEIPA kah olka cungkuem dongah khosoih Amariah tah nangmih kah boeilu coeng ni ne. Manghai kah olka cungkuem dongah khaw Ishmael capa Zebadiah tah Judah imkhui kah rhaengsang la om coeng. Nangmih mikhmuh kah Levi rhoiboei rhoek khaw thaahuel uh lamtah saii uh. BOEIPA loh hnothen neh n'om puei saeh,” a ti nah.
