< Kings IV 23 >
1 So they reported the word to the king: and the king sent and gathered all the elders of Juda and Jerusalem to himself.
Siangpahrang ni tami a patoun teh, Judah hoi Jerusalem kacuenaw ka kamkhueng awh.
2 And the king went up to the house of the Lord, and every man of Juda and all who dwelt in Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people small and great; and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in the house of the Lord.
Siangpahrang teh Judah ram e tami pueng hoi Jerusalem kaawm e pueng hoi, vaihma hoi profetnaw hoi tami kathoung kalen pueng hoi BAWIPA e im lah a cei awh teh, BAWIPA im dawk a hmu awh e a lawkkamnae cauk dawk kaawm e pueng ahnimae hmalah koung ka thai lah a touk pouh.
3 And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before the Lord, to walk after the Lord, to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his ordinances with all the heart and with all the soul, to confirm the words of this covenant; [even] the things written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.
Siangpahrang ni khomkung koe a kangdue teh cauk dawk kaawm e lawkkamnae lawk hah, caksak hane hoi lungthin abuemlahoi muitha abuemlahoi BAWIPA tarawi hane kâpoelawk poe e hoi, a panuesaknaenaw, hoi phunglawknaw tarawi hanelah BAWIPA hmalah a lawk a kam. Tami pueng ni lawkkamnae a caksak awh.
4 And the king commanded Chelcias the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and them that kept the door, to bring out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and all the host of heaven, and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kedron, and took the ashes of them to Baethel.
Vaihma kacue Hilkiah hoi kadounkung vaihmanaw hoi takhang karingkungnaw hah BAWIPA im thung e Baal hoi Asherah hoi kalvan kaawm e hnonaw hanelah a sak e hnopai pueng a tâcokhai hanelah kâ a poe. Jerusalem alawilah Kidron kahrawngum vah hmai a sawi teh hraba hah Bethel lah a ceikhai.
5 And he burned the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Juda [had] appointed, (and they burned incense in the high places and in the cities of Juda, and the places around about Jerusalem); and them that burned incense to Baal, and to the sun, and to the moon, and to Mazuroth, and to all the host of heaven.
Meikaphawk ka bawk e vaihma, Judah siangpahrangnaw ni Judah ram khonaw hmuenrasangnaw hoi Jerusalem tengpam e hmuitui kasawinaw hah a pahnawt awh teh, Baal, kanî, thapa, âsi hane hoi kalvan kaawm e pueng hane hmuitui hmai ouk kasawinaw hah a pahnawt awh.
6 And he carried out the grove from the house of the Lord to the brook Kedron, and burned it at the brook Kedron, and reduced it to powder, and cast its powder on the sepulchres of the sons of the people.
BAWIPA im dawk thing hoi meikaphawk hah Jerusalem kho lawilah Kirdron palang vah a ceikhai awh teh, Kirdron palang dawk hmai a sawi awh. Kanuikapin lah a hruek awh teh kanuikapinnaw hah mathoenaw e tangkom dawk a pasa awh.
7 And he pulled down the house of the sodomites that were by the house of the Lord, where the women wove tents for the grove.
Hahoi thing meikaphawk, hni kakawngkung napuinaw a onae hoi BAWIPA im napuitongpanaw onae imnaw a raphoe awh.
8 And he brought up all the priest from the cities of Juda, and defiled the high places where the priests burned incense, from Gaebal even to Bersabee; and he pulled down the house of the gates that was by the door of the gate of Joshua the ruler of the city, on a man's left hand at the gate of the city.
Vaihma pueng Judah khonaw koehoi a kaw sak awh teh, ahnimouh ni hmuitui hmaisawinae hmuenrasangnaw hah Geba hoi Beersheba totouh a khin sak awh teh, Jerusalem e khobawi Joshua e longkha avoilae kâennae longkha pueng be a raphoe awh.
9 Only the priests of the high places went not up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem, for they only ate leavened bread in the midst of their brethren.
Hmuenrasang koe e vaihmanaw hah Jerusalem BAWIPA thuengnae khoungroe koe cet awh hoeh ei teh, a hmaunawnghanaw koe tonphuenhoehe ouk a ca awh.
10 And he defiled Tapheth which is in the valley of the son of Ennom, [constructed] for a man to cause his son or his daughter to pass through fire to Moloch.
Apinihai amamae a canaw hah Molek cathut koe hmai hoi a thueng awh hoeh nahan, Hinnom e a ca tanghling dawk kaawm e Topheth hai a khin sak awh.
11 And he burned the horses which the king of Juda had given to the sun in the entrance of the house of the Lord, by the treasury of Nathan the king's eunuch, in the suburbs; and he burned the chariot of the sun with fire.
BAWIPA im alawilae siangpahrang karingkung Nathan Molek im teng e Judah siangpahrangnaw ni kanî koe a poe awh e marangnaw hah he a takhoe pouh teh, kanî rangleng hah hmai koung a sawi awh.
12 And the altars that were on the roof of the upper chamber of Achaz, which the kings of Juda had made, and the altars which Manasses had made in the two courts of the house of the Lord, did the king pull down and forcibly remove from thence, and cast their dust into the brook of Kedron.
Ahaz im a tungtengtoe e dawk a hruek e khoungroenaw hoi Manasseh ni BAWIPA im thongma kahni touh koe a sak e khoungroenaw hah siangpahrang ni he a raphoe teh Kidron palang dawkvah a tâkhawng.
13 And the king defiled the house that was before Jerusalem, on the right hand of the mount of Mosthath, which Solomon king of Israel built to Astarte the abomination of the Sidonians, and to Chamos the abomination of Moab, and to Moloch the abomination of the children of Ammon.
Isarel siangpahrang Solomon ni, Jerusalem kanîtholah a raphoe e aranglae mon dawk panuettho e Sidon cathut Ashtoreth, panuettho e Moab cathut, Kemosh thoseh panuettho e Ammon cathut Milkom hanelah a hmuenrasangnaw hah siangpahrang ni a khin sak.
14 And he broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.
Meikaphawknaw hah rekrek a hem teh, thing meikaphawknaw be a tâtueng hnukkhu, hote hmuen koe tami hrunaw hoi akawi sak.
15 Also the high altar in Baethel, which Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, had made, even that high altar he tore down, and broke in pieces the stones of it, and reduced it to powder, and burnt the grove.
Hothloilah Isarel ka payon sakkung Nebat capa Jeroboam ni Bethel vah khoungroe hoi a hmuenrasangnaw hoi khoungroe hai a raphoe pouh. Hmuenrasang hmai a sawi teh kanuikapin lah koung a hruek teh thingmeikaphawk hai hmai a sawi.
16 And Josias turned aside, and saw the tombs that were there in the city, and sent, and took the bones out of the tombs, and burnt them on the altar, and defiled it, according to the word of the Lord which the man of God spoke, when Jeroboam stood by the altar at the feast: and he turned and raised his eyes to the tomb of the man of God that spoke these words.
Josiah teh a kamlang teh mon dawk e phuen hah a hmu, hottelah phuen e tami hrunaw hah a la sak teh, Cathut e tami ni a pâpho e BAWIPA e lawk patetlah khoungroe dawk hmai a sawi teh, a khin sak.
17 And he said, What [is] that mound which I see? And the men of the city said to him, [It is the grave of] the man of God that came out of Juda, and uttered these imprecations which he imprecated upon the altar of Baethel.
Josiah ni hai kai ni ka hmu e noutnae talung teh, apie phuen namaw telah ati. Cathut e tami Judah ram lahoi ka tho e Bethel vah khoungroe dawk na sak e hno ka pâpho e phuen doeh telah a dei awh.
18 And he said, Let him alone; let no one disturb his bones. So his bones were spared, together with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
Siangpahrang ni apinihai a hru hah puen hanh naseh, ahnie a hrunaw hah Samaria lahoi ka tho e profetnaw e a hrunaw hoi kâbet hoeh.
19 Moreover Josias removed all the houses of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel made to provoke the Lord, and did to them all that he did in Baethel.
Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA lungkhuek sak awh teh, a sak awh e Samaria ram dawk e hmuenrasangnaw pueng Josiah ni koung a takhoe teh, Bethel vah a sak e patetlah a sak pouh.
20 And he sacrificed all the priests of the high places that were there on the altars, and burnt the bones of men upon them, and returned to Jerusalem.
Hottelah haw e hmuenrasang e vaihmanaw pueng hah khoungroe van a thei teh, haw vah tami hru a pâeng teh Jerusalem lah bout a ban.
21 And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover to the Lord your God, as it is written in the book of this covenant.
Hahoi siangpahrang ni tami pueng koe, hete lawkkamnae cauk dawk kaawm e patetlah BAWIPA, nangmae Cathut hanlah ceitakhai pawito awh telah kâ a poe.
22 For a passover [such as] this had not been kept from the days of the judges who judged Israel, even all the days of the kings of Israel, and of the kings of Juda.
Isarel lawkcengkungnaw ni lawk a ceng totouh hoi, Isarel siangpahrangnaw ni a uknae thung pueng hoi, Judah siangpahrang ni a uknae thung pueng haiyah ceitakhai pawito awh boihoeh.
23 But in the eighteenth year of king Josias, was the passover kept to the Lord in Jerusalem.
Josiah siangpahrang a bawinae kum 18 navah, hote ceitakhai pawi teh Jerusalem vah BAWIPA hanelah a tawn awh lah ao.
24 Moreover Josias removed the sorcerers, and the wizards, and the theraphin, and the idols, and all the abominations that had been set up in the land of Juda and in Jerusalem, that he might keep the words of the law that were written in the book, which Chelcias the priest found in the house of the Lord.
BAWIPA im dawk e vaihma Hilkiah ni, a hmu e cauk dawkvah kâlawk hah caksak nahanelah, kahraithawtawknae hoi taânsinnae hoi, meikaphawk hoi, cathut meikaphawknaw, Judah ram hoi Isarel kho e hno panuettho a hmu awh e pueng hah Josiah ni koung a raphoe.
25 There was no king like him before him, who turned to the Lord with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his strength, according to all the law of Moses; and after him there rose not one like him.
Mosi e kâlawk pueng patetlah lungthin abuemlah, muitha hoi thaonae abuemlahoi BAWIPA koe lah a kamlang teh, ahni patetlah ahni hoehnahlan siangpahrang apihai awm hoeh. Ahni hnukkhu hai ahni patetlah apihai awm mahoeh toe.
26 Nevertheless the Lord turned not from the fierceness of his great anger, wherewith he was wroth in his anger against Juda, because of the provocations, wherewith Manasses provoked him.
Hatei, BAWIPA ni puenghoi a lungkhueknae Manasseh ni a lungkhueksaknae naw pueng kecu dawkvah, Judahnaw taranlahoi kâan e a lungkhueknae hmai teh, roum thai kalawn hoeh.
27 And the Lord said, I will also remove Juda from my presence, as I removed Israel, and will reject this city which I have chosen [even] Jerusalem, and the house [of] which I said, My name shall be there.
BAWIPA ni Isarel ka puen e patetlah Judah hai ka hmuhoehnae koe ka puen van han. Hete ka rawi e Jerusalem roeroe haiyah, haw vah ka min ao han ka tie im hah ka puen han, telah a ti.
28 And the rest of the acts of Josias, and all that he did, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
Hottelah Josiah tawksaknae thung dawk kaawm rae naw hoi, a tawk pueng teh Judah siangpahrangnaw setouknae cauk dawk a kâ thut mahoeh maw.
29 And in his days went up Pharao Nechao king of Egypt against the king of the Assyrians to the river Euphrates: and Josias went out to meet him: and Nechao slew him in Mageddo when he saw him.
Siangpahrang lah ao navah, Izip siangpahrang Faro Neko teh, Assiria siangpahrang tuk hanelah, Euphrates palang vah a ceitakhang. Siangpahrang Josiah ni ahni a tuk teh ahnimouh ni ahni teh a hmu awh tahma vah, Megiddo vah a thei awh.
30 And his servants carried him dead from Mageddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulchre: and the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and anointed him, and made him king in the room of his father.
A taminaw ni Megiddo hoi a ro hah rangleng hoi a ceikhai awh teh, Jerusalem vah a kâenkhai awh teh amae tangkom dawk a pakawp awh. Hottelah hote khonaw ni Josiah capa Jehoahaz teh a ceikhai awh teh, satui a awi awh teh, a na pa yueng lah a bawi sak awh.
31 Twenty and three years old was Joachaz when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Amital, daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.
Jehoahaz teh siangpahrang a tawk navah, kum 23 touh a pha. Jerusalem vah thapa yung thum touh a bawi. A manu min teh Hamutal, Libnah kho e Jeremiah canu doeh.
32 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers did.
A na mintoenaw ni ouk a sak awh e patetlah BAWIPA mithmu vah thoenae hah ouk a sak.
33 And Pharao Nechao removed him to Rablaam in the land of Emath, so that he should not reign in Jerusalem; and imposed a tribute on the land, a hundred talents of silver, and a hundred talents of gold.
Faro Neko ni hote siangpahrang Jerusalem kho a uk thai hoeh nahanelah, Hamath ram e Riblah kho vah thongim a pabo. Hahoi Judah ram vah a pabo. Hahoi Judah ram vah ngun talen 100 touh hoi sui talen buet touh imhu a cawng sak.
34 And Pharao Nechao made Eliakim son of Josias king of Juda king over them in the place of his father Josias, and he changed his name [to] Joakim, and he took Joachaz and brought him to Egypt, and he died there.
Hahoi Faro Neko ni Josiah capa ELiakim hah a na pa Josiah yueng lah a bawi sak. A min hah Jehoiakim telah a thung pouh. Jehoiahaz teh Izip vah a ceikhai awh teh haw vah a due.
35 And Joakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharao; but he assessed the land to give the money at the command of Pharao: they gave the silver and the gold [each] man according to his assessment together with the people of the land to give to Pharao Nechao.
Jehoiakim ni Faro hah ngun tangka hoi sui a poe teh, ahnimae ram teh Faro ni kâ a poe e patetlah tangka lah poe hane tamuk a cawng van. Faro Neko koe poe hanlah, tami pueng rawng hanelah a khoe pouh e patetlah hote ram thung e khocanaw hah sui hoi tangka a rawng sak awh.
36 Twenty-five years old [was] Joakim when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Jeldaph, daughter of Phadail of Ruma.
Jehoiakim teh siangpahrang a tawk navah, kum 25 touh a pha. Jerusalem vah kum 11 touh a bawi. A manu min teh Zebudah Ramah kho e Pedaiah canu doeh.
37 And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the lord, according to all that his fathers had done.
Hahoi a na mintoenaw ni a sak awh e patetlah BAWIPA mithmu vah thoenae hah a sak.
