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.
To naah siangpahrang Josiah mah, Judah hoi Jerusalem ih kacoehtanawk boih to kawk.
2 And the king went up to the house of the Lord, and every man of Juda and all who lived 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.
Siagpahrang loe Judah kaminawk, Jerusalem ih kaminawk, qaimanawk hoi tahmaanawk, kathoeng kalen kaminawk boih hoi nawnto Angraeng ih im ah caeh tahang. Anih mah Angraeng imthung ah hnuk ih lokmaihaih cabu pong ih loknawk boih to kaminawk thaih hanah kroek pae.
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 Josiah loe homh taengah angdoet, Angraeng hnukbang hanah, a lokpaekhaihnawk, a thuih ih loknawk, lok takroekhaih daanawk to palungthin tang hoi hinghaih boih hoiah pazui moe, hae lokmaihaih cabu thungah tarik ih loknawk to caksak hanah, Angraeng hmaa ah lokmaihaih to a sak. Kaminawk boih lokmaihaih hmaa ah angdoet o.
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 burnt them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kedron, and took the ashes of them to Baethel.
Siangpahrang mah, qaima Hilkiah, anih tlim ah kaom qaimanawk hoi khongkha toep kaminawk khaeah, Baal sithaw, Asherah thing hoi cakaehnawk hanah sak o ih, laom sabaennawk boih to Angraeng im thung hoi tasa bangah pathok hanah lokpaek; to hmuennawk to Jerusalem vangpui tasa bang ih Kidron azawn ah hmai hoiah thlaek o moe, maiphu to Bethel ah sinh o.
5 And he burnt the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Juda [had] appointed, (and they burnt incense in the high places and in the cities of Juda, and the places around about Jerusalem); and them that burnt incense to Baal, and to the sun, and to the moon, and to Mazuroth, and to all the host of heaven.
Judah prae hoi Jerusalem vangpui taeng ih hmuensangnawk boih ah hmuihoih thlaek hanah, Judah siangpahrangnawk mah suek ih, krang kabok qaimanawk, Baal, ni hoi khrah, van ih longnawk hoi cakaehnawk khaeah hmuihoih thlaek kaminawk to takhoe boih.
6 And he carried out the grove from the house of the Lord to the brook Kedron, and burnt it at the brook Kedron, and reduced it to powder, and cast its powder on the sepulchres of the sons of the people.
Angraeng im thung ih Asherah thing to a lak moe, Jerusalem vangpui tasa bang ih Kidron vacong ah a sinh pacoengah, to vacong taengah hmai hoiah a qoeng; kadip puengah naep pacoengah, to maiphu to kaminawk ih taprong ah a haeh.
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.
Nongpatanawk mah Asherah thing hanah kahni sakhaih ahmuen, Angraeng im taeng ih nongpanawk hnukbang tangyat mii kadueh kaminawk ohhaih im doeh a phraek pae.
8 And he brought up all the priest from the cities of Juda, and defiled the high places where the priests burnt 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.
Josiah mah Judah prae thung boih ih qaimanawk to kawk moe, nihcae mah hmuihoih thlaekhaih hmuensangnawk to Geba hoi Beersheba khoek to panuet kaom ah sak; Jerusalem vangpui ukkkung, Joshua ih khongkha akunhaih banqoi bangah kaom, vangpui sipae khongkha ih hmuensangnawk doeh vah pae phaeng.
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.
Hmuensang ah toksah qaimanawk loe Jerusalem ih Angraeng hmaicam ah caeh o thai ai; toe taeh thuh ai ih takaw loe ampui qaimanawk hoi nawnto caak o thaih.
10 And he defiled Taphes 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.
Josiah mah, Mi kawbaktih doeh a canu hoi a capanawk to Molek sithaw khaeah hmai angbawnhaih sak han ai ah, Ben-Hinom azawn ah kaom, Topheth sithaw to panuet thok ah a sak.
11 And he burnt 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 burnt the chariot of the sun with fire.
Judah siangpahrangnawk mah Ni khaeah tathlangh o ih, Angraeng im akunhaih khongkha taeng ih Nathan-Melek ohhaih imkhaan taengah kaom, hrangnawk doeh vah pae king; ni khaeah tathlangh o ih hrang lakoknawk doeh hmai hoiah a thlaek pae.
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.
Judah siangpahrangnawk mah sak o ih, Ahaz imkhaan ranui ih hmaicamnawk, Manasseh mah Angraeng im longhma hnetto pongah sak ih hmaicamnawk to a phraek moe, kadip pueng khoek to boh pae phaeng pacoengah, maiphu dip to Kidron vacong ah a vah.
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.
Israel siangpahrang Solomon mah, Jerusalem vangpui ni angyae bang, amrohaih mae aloih bangah kaom, panuet thok Sidon kaminawk ih sithaw Ashtoreth, panuet thok Moab kaminawk ih sithaw Khemost hoi panuet thok Ammon kaminawk ih Milkom sithaw hanah, sak pae ih hmuensangnawk to panuet kaom ah a sak pae.
14 And he broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.
Josiah mah krangnawk to vah pae phaeng moe, Asherah thingnawk to pakhruk pae; nihcae ohhaih ahmuen to kami huh hoiah koisak.
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.
Bethel ih hmaicam, Israel kaminawk zaehaih sahsakkung, Nebat capa Jeroboam mah sak ih, hmuensang, to ah kaom hmaicam hoi hmuensangnawk doeh phraek pae king; hmuensang to hmai hoiah thlaek pacoengah, kadip pueng khoek to a boh pae; Asherah thing doeh hmai hoiah a thlaek.
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 mah khet moe, mae nuiah kaom taprongnawk to hnuk naah, kami to patoeh moe, taprong thung ih kami huh to laksak; Sithaw ih kami mah thuicoek ih Angraeng ih lok baktih toengah, ahuhnawk to hmaicam nuiah hmai hoiah thlaek moe, panuet kaom ah a 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.
Siangpahrang mah, Taprong thlung nuiah ka hnuk ih hmuen loe tih aa? tiah a naa. Vangpui thung ih kaminawk mah, Hae loe Judah prae thung hoiah angzoh moe, vaihniah Bethel ih hmaicam nuiah na sak ih hmuen to ka koeh ai, tiah thuikung, Sithaw kami angmathaih ih taprong ni, tiah thuih pae o.
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.
Anih mah, To tiah suem o duem ah; mi mah doeh anih ih ahuh to takhoe o hmah nasoe, tiah a naa. To pongah anih ih ahuh hoi Samaria hoiah angzo kaminawk ih ahuh to a caeh o taak.
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.
Bethel vangpui ah sak ih baktih toengah, Josiah mah Angraeng palungphuisak hanah, Samaria vangpuinawk thungah Israel siangpahrangnawk mah sak o ih hmuensangnawk hoi bokhaih ahmuennawk to phraek pae king.
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.
Josiah mah toksah qaimanawk to hmuensang ih hmaicamnawk nuiah hum boih moe, kami huhnawk to to hmaicam nuiah hmai hoi thlaek pacoengah, Jerusalem ah amlaem.
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.
Siangpahrang mah kaminawk boih khaeah, Hae lokmaihaih cabu thungah tarik ih baktih toengah, na Angraeng Sithaw khaeah misong loihaih poih to sah oh.
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.
Israel zaehoikung lokcaekkungnawk ih adung hoiah kamtong, Israel siangpahrangnawk hoi Judah siangpahrangnawk dung thung boih ah, to baktih misong loihaih poih to sah o vai ai;
23 But in the eighteenth year of king Josias, was the passover kept to the Lord in Jerusalem.
toe Josiah siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hatlaitazetto naah, Angraeng khaeah misong loihhaih poih to Jerusalem ah sak o.
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.
To pacoengah Josiah loe, qaima Hilkiah mah Angraeng im thungah hnuk ih Sithaw lok cabu thungah tarik ih loknawk baktih toengah pazui hanah, pakhra hoi mauihnawk, krangnawk, sakcop ih krangnawk han toksah kaminawk, Judah prae hoi Jerusalem ah kaom panuet thok hmuennawk to a phraek boih.
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.
Josiah siangpahrang ah om ai nathuem hoi anih siangpahrang ah oh pacoeng khoek to, Josiah baktiah poekhaih palungthin boih, a hinghaih boih, a thacakhaih boih hoi Mosi mah paek ih kaalok baktih toengah, Angraeng khaeah amlaem kami maeto doeh om ai.
26 Nevertheless the Lord turned not from the fierceness of his great anger, wherewith he was angry in his anger against Juda, because of the provocations, wherewith Manasses provoked him.
Toe Manasseh mah palungphuisak pongah, Judah nuiah Angraeng palungphuihaih to dipsak let thai ai.
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.
Angraeng mah, Israel kaminawk ka hmaa hoi takhoe boih baktih toengah, Judahnawk doeh ka takhoe han; Ka Hmin loe, ka qoih ih hae vangpui, Jerusalem hoi to ih ahmuen ah om tih, tiah ka thuih ih im to ka takhoe ving han, tiah a thuih.
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?
Josiah siangpahrang ah oh nathung toksakhaihnawk hoi a sak ih hmuennawk loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai 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 killed him in Mageddo when he saw him.
Josiah siangpahrang dung ah, Izip siangpahrang Faro-Neko loe Euphrate vapui khoek to, Assyria siangpahrang tuk hanah caeh tahang; Josiah siangpahrang loe anih to tuk hanah caeh; Neko mah anih to Megiddo ah hnuk, misa angtuk hoi naah Josiah to anih mah hum.
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.
Josiah ih tamnanawk mah anih ih qok to hrang lakok pongah Megiddo hoi Jerusalem ah phawh o moe, angmah ih taprong ah aphum o. A prae thung ih kaminawk mah Josiah capa Jehoahaz to situi bawh o pacoengah, ampa zuengah siangpahrang ah suek o.
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 siangpahrang ah oh nathuem ah, saning pumphae thumto oh boeh; anih mah Jerusalem to khrah thumto thung uk. Anih amno ih ahmin loe, Libnah ah kaom, Jeremiah canu Hamutal.
32 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers did.
Ampanawk mah sak ih hmuennawk baktih toengah, anih doeh Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to 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.
Siangpahrang mah Jerusalem to uk han ai ah, Faro-Neko mah anih to Hamath prae Riblah vangpui ah thongim pakhrak moe, Judah kaminawk han phoisa talent cumvaito hoi sui talent maeto tamut paeksak.
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.
Faro-Neko mah Josiah capa Eliakim to ampa Josiah zuengah siangpahrang ah suek moe, Eliakim to Jehoiakim, tiah ahmin athlaeng pae; toe Jehoahaz loe Izip prae ah misong ah caeh haih; anih loe to ah duek.
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.
Faro-Neko mah tamut hnik baktih toengah, Jehoiakim mah sui hoi phoisa to paek; prae kaminawk khaeah paek koi angmah ih taham tamut to kok moe, sui hoi phoisa to Faro-Neko hanah paek.
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 loe siangpahrang ah oh naah, saning pumphae pangato oh boeh; anih mah Jerusalem to saning hatlaito thung uk. Amno loe Pedaiah canu Zebidah; anih loe Rumah ah kaom kami ni.
37 And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the lord, according to all that his fathers had done.
Ampanawk mah sak o ih hmuennawk baktih toengah, anih mah doeh Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to sak.
