< 1 Kings 15 >
1 Then, in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, Abijam reigned over Judah.
Nebat capa Jeroboam siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hatlaitazetto naah, Abijam loe siangpahrang ah oh.
2 He reigned for three years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.
Anih loe Jerusalem ah saning thumto thung siangpahrang ah oh; anih ih amno loe Abishalom canu Maakah.
3 And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him. Neither was his heart perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David, his father.
Anih doeh ampa mah Angraeng hmaa ah sak ih zaehaih baktih toengah sak toeng; anih ih palungthin loe, ampa David baktiah angmacae Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah akoep thai ai.
4 But for the sake of David, the Lord his God gave to him a lamp in Jerusalem, so that he might raise up his son after him, and so that he might establish Jerusalem.
Toe David rang hoiah angmah ih Angraeng Sithaw mah, angmah pacoengah siangpahrang ah suek hanah, Jerusalem ah hmai-im maeto a paek.
5 For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and he had not declined from all of the things that he had instructed to him, during all the days of his life, except the matter of Uriah, the Hittite.
David loe Hit kami Uriah kawng thui ai ah loe, a hing thung Angraeng hmaa ah katoeng hmuen to sak, Angraeng mah paek ih lok to pazui ai ah om ai.
6 Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam during the entire time of his life.
Anih hing thung Rehoboam hoi Jeroboam loe misa angtuk hoi.
7 And the rest of the words of Abijam, and all that he did, were these not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah? And there was fighting between Abijam and Jeroboam.
Abijam siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk hoi a sak ih hmuennawk loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah pakuem o na ai maw? Abijam hoi Jeroboam salakah misatukhaih to oh.
8 And Abijam slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David. And Asa, his son, reigned in his place.
Abijam loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, David vangpui ah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Asa to siangpahrang ah oh.
9 Then, in the twentieth year of Jeroboam, the king of Israel, Asa reigned as king of Judah.
Israel siangpahrang Jeroboam siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning pumphaeto naah, Asa loe Judah siangpahrang ah oh.
10 And he reigned for forty-one years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.
Anih loe Jerusalem ah saning quipalito thung siangpahrang ah oh. Anih ih amno hmin loe Maakah.
11 And Asa did what was right before the sight of the Lord, just as his father David did.
Asa loe ampa David baktiah, Angraeng mikhnuk ah kahoih hmuen to sak.
12 And he took away the effeminate from the land. And he purged all the filth of the idols, which his fathers had made.
Nongpata baktiah kangsah kaminawk to prae thung hoiah haek boih moe, ampa mah sak ih krangnawk to paro boih.
13 Moreover, he also removed his mother, Maacah, from being the leader in the sacrifices of Priapus, and in his sacred grove which she had consecrated. And he destroyed his grotto. And he shattered the very indecent idol, and he burned it at the torrent Kidron.
Amno mah Asherah thing tlim ah krang to sak pongah, siangpahrang amno ah ohhaih ahmuen hoiah tacawtsak; Asa mah to ih Asherah krang soi ih thing to pakhruk moe, Kidron vacong ah hmai hoiah thlaek.
14 But the high places, he did not take away. Yet truly, the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord during all his days.
Hmuensangnawk to takhoe king ai, toe a hing thung Asa ih palungthin loe Angraeng hmaa ah akoephaih tawnh.
15 And he brought the things that his father had sanctified and vowed back to the house of the Lord: the silver, and the gold, and the vessels.
Angmah hoi ampa mah paek ih, sui, phoisa hoi laom sabaenawk to Angraeng tempul thungah a suek.
16 Now there was war between Asa and Baasha, the king of Israel, during all their days.
Asa hoi Israel siangpahrang Baasha loe hing thung misa ah oh hoi poe.
17 And Baasha, the king of Israel, ascended against Judah. And he built up Ramah, so that no one would be able to exit or enter from the side of Asa, the king of Judah.
Israel siangpahrang Baasha loe Judah tuk hanah caeh tahang moe, Judah siangpahrang Asa ih prae thungah mi kawbaktih doeh caeh han ai, tacawt han ai ah, Ramah vangpui to sipae hoi ka caakah a thungh.
18 And so, Asa took all the silver and the gold which had remained in the treasuries of the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the house of the king, and he gave it into the hands of his servants. And he sent them to Benhadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, the king of Syria, who was living in Damascus, saying:
To naah Asa mah Angraeng tempul thung hoi siangpahrang imthung ih, sui hoi phoisanawk to lak boih moe, a tamnanawk khaeah paek pacoengah, Damaska ukkung, Syria siangpahrang Hezion capa Tabrimon capa Ben-Hadad khaeah a pat pae.
19 “There is a pact between me and you, and between my father and your father. For this reason, I have sent to you gifts of silver and of gold. And I ask you to go and break your pact with Baasha, the king of Israel, so that he may withdraw from me.”
Kampa hoi nampa mah angdaehhaih sak hoi baktih toengah, nang hoi kai salakah doeh angdaehhaih sah si; khenah, nang hanah sui hoi phoisa tangqum ah kang pat; anih kai khae hoi tacawt thai hanah, Israel siangpahrang Baasha hoi na sak ih angdaehhaih to phrae ah, tiah a naa.
20 Benhadad, acquiescing to king Asa, sent the leaders of his army against the cities of Israel. And they struck Ijon, and Dan, and Abel, the house of Maacah, and all of Chinneroth, that is, all the land of Naphtali.
Asa siangpahrang ih lok to Ben-Hadad mah tahngaih moe, Israel vangpuinawk tuk hanah angmah ih misatuh angraengnawk to patoeh; anih mah Ijon, Dan, Abel-Beth-Maakah hoi Naphtali prae pacoengah, Kinneroth prae boih to pazawk.
21 And when Baasha had heard this, he ceased from fortifying Ramah, and he returned to Tirzah.
Baasha mah to tamthanglok to thaih naah, a sak li ih Ramah vangpui to toengh sut moe, Tirzah ah oh.
22 Then king Asa sent an announcement to all of Judah, saying, “Let no one be excused.” And they took away the stones from Ramah, and its timber, with which Baasha had fortified it. And from these things, king Asa built up Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.
To naah Asa siangpahrang mah Judah prae thung boih ah lok to taphong; mi kawbaktih doeh tahmaat ai; Baasha mah im sak naah patoh ih thlungnawk, thingnawk to a lak pae boih; Asa siangpahrang loe nihcae abomhaih hoiah Benjamin prae ih Geba hoi Mizpah vangpui to sak.
23 Now all the rest of the words of Asa, and his entire strength, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, were these not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah? Yet truly, in the time of his old age, he was afflicted in his feet.
Asa siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk hoiah a sak ih hmuennawk boih, a sak ih vangpuinawk boih loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ih ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw? Toe mitong naah loe, a khok ah nathaih to oh pae.
24 And he slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David, his father. And Jehoshaphat, his son, reigned in his place.
To pacoengah Asa loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, ampanawk hoi nawnto David vangpui ah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Jehosaphat to siangpahrang ah oh.
25 Yet truly, Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, reigned over Israel, in the second year of Asa, the king of Judah. And he reigned over Israel for two years.
Judah siangpahrang Asa siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hnetto haih naah, Jeroboam capa Nadab loe Israel siangpahrang ah oh; Israel kaminawk nuiah saning hnetto thung siangpahrang ah oh.
26 And he did what is evil in the sight of the Lord. And he walked in the ways of his father and in his sins, by which he caused Israel to sin.
Anih loe Angraeng mikhnuk ah kahoih ai hmuen to sak; ampa ih loklam ah caeh moe, Israel kaminawk zaehaih sahsak kami mah sak ih zaehaih to a sak toeng.
27 Then Baasha, the son of Ahijah, from the house of Issachar, set an ambush against him, and he struck him down at Gibbethon, which is a city of the Philistines. For indeed, Nadab and all of Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.
Issakar imthung takoh, Ahijah capa Baasha mah anih to tuk han pacaeng pongah, Nadab hoi Israel kaminawk boih mah, Philistinnawk ih vangpui Gebbethon to takui o khoep moe, anih to hum o.
28 And so Baasha killed him in the third year of Asa, the king of Judah, and he reigned in his place.
Judah siangpahrang Asa siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning thumto naah, Baasha mah Nadab to hum moe, angmah to siangpahrang ah oh.
29 And when he had reigned, he struck down the entire house of Jeroboam. He did not leave behind even one soul from his offspring, until he had wiped him away, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by the hand of Ahijah, the Shilonite,
Anih siangpahrang ah oh naah, Jeroboam imthung takohnawk to hum boih; Angraeng Sithaw mah a tamna Shiloh ih kami Ahijah rang hoiah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Jeroboam imthung takoh tamit boih ai karoek to, anghahhaih takhi tawn kami maeto doeh tahmaat ai;
30 because of the sin of Jeroboam, which he had committed, and by which he had caused Israel to sin, and because of the offense by which he had provoked the Lord, the God of Israel.
Jeroboam loe zaehaih to sak moe, Israel kaminawk doeh a zaesak pongah, Israel Angraeng Sithaw to palungphuisak.
31 But the rest of the words of Nadab, and all that he did, were these not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Nadab siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk hoi a sak ih hmuennawk boih loe, Israel siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
32 And there was war between Asa and Baasha, the king of Israel, during all their days.
Asa hoi Israel siangpahrang Baasha loe hing thung misa angtuk hoi.
33 In the third year of Asa, the king of Judah, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, reigned over all of Israel, at Tirzah, for twenty-four years.
Judah siangpahrang Asa siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning thumto naah, Ahijah capa Baashato Tirzah ah Israel siangpahrang ah oh; anih loe saning pumphaeto thung siangpahrang ah oh.
34 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord. And he walked in the ways of Jeroboam, and in his sins, by which he caused Israel to sin.
Anih doeh Angraeng mikhnuk ah kahoih ai hmuen to sak moe, Israel kaminawk zaehaih sahsak kami, Jeroboam zaehaih loklam ah a caeh.
