< Kings IV 18 >

1 And it came to pass in the third year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel [that] Ezekias son of Achaz king of Juda began to reign.
Isarel siangpahrang Elah capa Hosi a bawinae kum pâthum navah, Judah siangpahrang Ahaz capa Hezekiah teh siangpahrang lah ao.
2 Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Abu, daughter of Zacharias.
Bawi a kamtawng navah, ahni teh kum 25 touh a pha. Jerusalem vah 29 a bawi teh a manu min teh Abi, Zekhariah canu doeh.
3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David did.
A na min Devit ni a sak e pueng a sak teh BAWIPA mithmu vah kalan e hah ouk a sak.
4 He removed the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and the brazen serpent which Moses made: because until those days the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called it Neesthan.
Hmuenrasang hah a pahnawt teh meikaphawknaw a raphoe awh. Mosi ni a sak e rahum tahrun hah rep a dei awh. Hote atueng totouh Isarelnaw ni ahni koe hmuitui a thueng awh teh, hot teh Nehushta atipouh awh.
5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel; and after him there was not any like him among the kings of Juda, nor among those that were before him.
Ahni teh Isarel BAWIPA Cathut a kângue. Hahoi ahni hnukkhu hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw thung dawk ahni patetlah apihai awm hoeh, a hnukkhu hai awm hoeh.
6 And he clave to the Lord, he departed not from following him; and he kept his commandments, as many as he commanded Moses.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA hah kacaklah a kuet. A hnuk pou a kâbang. BAWIPA ni Mosi koe a kâpoelawknaw a poe e hah a tarawi.
7 And the Lord was with him; and he was wise in all that he undertook: and he revolted from the king of the Assyrians, and served him not.
BAWIPA ni ahni koe ao pouh, a tâco a ceio nah pueng koe a lamcawn pouh. Assiria siangpahrang hah a tuk teh a san lah awm pouh hoeh.
8 He smote the Philistines [even] to Gaza, and to the border of it, from the tower of the watchmen even to the strong city.
Filistinnaw hoiyah, Gaza totouh kacakpounge khopuinaw hoi ramvengimnaw hah koung a tâ awh.
9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Ezekias (this is the seventh year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel, ) [that] Salamanassar king of the Assyrians came up against Samaria, and besieged it.
Hezekiah siangpahrang a bawinae kum 4 navah Isarel siangpahrang Elah capa Hosi a bawinae kum 7 nah hettelah doeh ao. Assiria siangpahrang Shalmaneser ni Samaria a tuk teh king a kalup.
10 And he took it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Ezekias, (this [is] the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, when Samaria was taken.)
A kum pâthum abaw tawmlei nah a la. Hezekiah a bawi kum 6 navah Isarel siangpahrang Hosi a bawi kum 9 nah Samaria koung a la.
11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away the Samaritans to Assyria, and put them in Alae and in Abor, [by] the river Gozan, and [in] the mountains of the Medes;
Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA e kâpoelawk a ngâi awh hoeh, kecu dawk Samaria teh Assiria ni a la awh. BAWIPA e san Mosi koehoi Isarelnaw hai BAWIPA e lawkkam a sak awh e teh a ek awh teh, tarawi ngai awh hoeh. Lawk ngai awh hoeh teh a lawkkam hai tarawi awh hoeh.
12 because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, and transgressed his covenant, [even] in all things that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, and hearkened not [to them], nor did [them].
Assiria siangpahrang ni Isarelnaw hah, Assiria ram koung a hrawi teh, Gozan palang teng, Medes khopui Halah, Habor naw dawkvah a ta.
13 And in the fourteenth year of king Ezekias came up Sennacherim king of the Assyrians against the strong cities of Juda, and took them.
Siangpahrang Hezekiah ni Judah ram a uknae kum 14 nah, Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib ni Judah ram thung rapan hoi king kalup e khopuinaw a tuk teh koung a tâ.
14 And Ezekias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying, I have offended; depart from me: whatsoever thou shalt lay upon me, I will bear. And the king of Assyria laid upon Ezekias king of Juda [a tribute of] three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.
Lakhish ni Assiria siangpahrang koevah, Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah ni ka payon toe. Na ban takhai teh, kai van na toung e pueng teh ka tawk han telah lawk a thui. Assiria siangpahrang ni Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah koe tangka talen 300 touh hoi sui talen 30 touh a hei.
15 And Ezekias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house.
Hahoi teh, Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA im hoi siangpahrang im a ta awh e tangka hoi suinaw pueng a poe.
16 At that time Ezekias cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple, and [from] the pillars which Ezekias king of Juda [had] overlaid with gold, and gave it to the king of the Assyrians.
Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA bawkim takhang a hlun awh e Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah ni khom sui e a hlun e hah abuemlah he a la teh Assiria siangpahrang a poe.
17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Raphis and Rapsakes from Lachis to king Ezekias with a strong force against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is by the way of the fuller's field.
Hahoi Assiria siangpahrang ni ransabawi Rabsaris, Rabshakeh, hoi ransa moikapap hoi Lakhish hoi Jerusalem Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah koe vah, a patoun teh, Jerusalem a pha awh. A pha toteh hnicu kapasunaw law lam tuikamuemnae kanîtholah, kaawm e tui lanae a teng vah a kangdue awh.
18 And they cried to Ezekias: and there came to him Heliakim the son of Chelcias the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder.
Siangpahrang hah a kaw a toteh, imthung kahrawikung, Hilkiah capa Eliakim hoi cakathutkung Shebna, hoi lairui kathutkung Asaph capa Joab hah ahnimouh koe a tâco.
19 And Rapsakes said to them, Say now to Ezekias, Thus says the king, the great king of the Assyrians, What [is] this confidence wherein thou trustest?
Rabshakeh ni, Hezekiah koevah dei pouh awh, siangpahrang ka lentoe Assiria siangpahrang ni, telah a dei, apimaw na kângue teh na lungmawngkhai vaw.
20 Thou hast said, (but [they are] mere words, ) [I have] counsel and strength for war. Now then in whom dost thou trust, that thou hast revolted from me?
Ransa thaw nahane teh, thaonae hoi khokhangthoumnae ka tawn na ti nahoehmaw. Hatei, hot teh lawk rumram na dei e doeh. Kai tuk hanelah, apimaw na kângue.
21 See now, art thou trusting for thyself on this broken staff of reed, [even] upon Egypt? whosoever shall stay himself upon it, it shall even go into his hand, and pierce it: so [is] Pharao king of Egypt to all that trust on him.
Khenhaw! kâkhoe e lungpum sonron Izip na kângue teh hot patetlae tami ngaihawi pawiteh, a kut a ruk pouh han, Izip siangpahrang Faro ka kângue e pueng teh, hot patetlah doeh ouk ao awh.
22 And whereas thou hast said to me, We trust on the Lord God: [is] not this he, whose high places and altars Ezekias has removed, and has said to Juda and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
Nahoeh pawiteh, kai koevah BAWIPA Cathut hah ka kângue na teh awh pawiteh, ahni teh Hezekiah ni, Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem hanlah, Jerusalem e thuengnae khoungroe hmalah, hmuenrasang koe na bawk awh han na ka tet ni teh hote khoungroe ka raphoe e hah ahni nahoehmaw telah a ti.
23 And now, I pray you, make and agreement with my lord the king of the Assyrians, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou shalt be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Hot patetlah, ka bawipa Assiria siangpahrang hoi lawkkamnae sak awh. Avan kâcui hane na hmawt thai pawiteh, marang 2,000 touh na poe han.
24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one petty governor, from among the least of my lord's servants? whereas thou trustest for thyself on Egypt for chariots and horsemen.
Bangtelamaw marang hoi marangransanaw kecu dawk Izipnaw koe na yuemnae na patue pawiteh, bawipa e sannaw thung dawk ka thoungca e kahrawikung buet touh heh na rungngang thai han vaw.
25 And now have we come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
BAWIPA laipalah hoi maw na ram heh ka tuk teh ka raphoe awh vaw. BAWIPA ni kai koevah, hete ram tuk hanlah cet haw, be raphoe haw na ti pouh dawk doeh.
26 And Heliakim the son of Chelkias, and Somnas, and Joas, said to Rapsakes, Speak now to thy servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jewish language: and why dost thou speak in the ears of the people that are on the wall?
Hilkiah capa Eliakim hoi Shebna hoi Joab ni Rabshakeh koevah pahren lahoi na sannaw hah, Aramaih lawk hoi ka pato awh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hot teh ka thai awh ngoun. khopui kalupnae thung kaawmnaw a thai nahanlah Hebru lawk hoi na pato hanh lawih telah ati awh.
27 And Rapsakes said to them, Has my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? [has he] not [sent me] to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own water together with you.
Hatei, Rabshakeh ni a hni koe, ka bawipa ni na bawipa koe nangmouh koe dueng maw, hete lawk dei hanelah, na patoun vaw. Rapan van ka tahung e amae payungpaei ka cat ka net naw koe maw na patoun vaw telah a ti.
28 And Rapsakes stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear the words of the great king of the Assyrians:
Rabshakeh teh a kangdue teh, Hebru lawk hoi kacaipounglah a hram teh, ka lentoe Assiria siangpahrang lawk hah ngai awh haw.
29 thus says the king, Let not Ezekias encourage you with words: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand.
Siangpahrang ni telah a dei. Hezekiah ka dum e lah awm hanh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh ama ni, a kut dawk hoi na rungngang thai mahoeh.
30 And let not Ezekias cause you to trust on the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly deliver us; this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians: hearken not to Ezekias:
Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA ni na rungngang roeroe vaiteh hete khopui heh Assiria siangpahrang kut dawk poe lah awm mahoeh telah BAWIPA hah kângue awh hanh naseh.
31 for thus says the king of the Assyrians, Gain my favour, and come forth to me, and every man shall drink [of the wine] of his own vine, and every man shall eat of his own fig-tree, and shall drink water out of his own cistern;
Hezekiah lawk hah yuem hanh awh. Assiria siangpahrang ni hettelah a dei. Kai koe roumnae sak awh nateh hi tho awh. Na ram patetlah cakang hoi misur e ram, vaiyei hoi misur takha,
32 until I come and remove you to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, and bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey, and ye shall live and not die: and do not ye hearken to Ezekias, for he deceives you, saying, The Lord shall deliver you.
Olive hoi khoitui ram, dout laipalah hringnae ram, koe na ceikhai hoehroukrak teh tami pueng ni mae misurkung dawk hoi a paw cat awh nateh tami pueng ni, mae thaibunglung dawk e a paw rip ca vaiteh tami pueng ni mae tuikhu tui rip net awh. Hezekiah ni BAWIPA ni na rungngang awh han doeh telah na ka pasawt nakunghai tang awh hanh loe.
33 Have the Gods of the nations at all delivered each their own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians?
Miphun tangkuem e cathutnaw ni, a ram teh Assiria siangpahrang koehoi ouk na rangngang awh boimaw.
34 Where is the god of Haemath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Seppharvaim, Ana, and Aba? for have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Hamath hoi Arpad cathutnaw hah namaw koung ao awh vaw. Sepharvaim hoi Hena hoi Ivvah naw e cathutnaw hai namaw koung ao awh. Samaria hah kai koehoi na rungngang thai awh maw.
35 Who [is there] among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their countries out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Ram tangkuem cathutnaw pueng thung dawk hoi apimaw kai koehoi ka rungngang thai. BAWIPA ni Jerusalem kho heh kai koehoi a rungngang han taya telah a ti.
36 But [the men] were silent, and answered him not a word: for [there was] a commandment of the king, saying, Ye shall not answer him.
Ahnimanaw teh duem ao awh teh kam touh boehai pathung awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang ni kâlawk poe e patetlah ahnimanaw teh pathung awh hanh loe atipouh.
37 And Heliakim the son of Chelcias, the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder came in to Ezekias, having rent their garments; and they reported to him the words of Rapsakes.
Hahoi teh, siangpahrang imthung kahrawikung Hilkiah capa Eliakim hoi cakathutkung Shebna hoi lairui kathutkung Asaph capa Joab hah a phi awh e khohna a kâmahrawksak teh, Hezekiah koevah a cei awh teh, Rabshakeh ni a dei e lawk hah a dei pouh awh.
