2 Chronicles 34

1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.

Josiah Judah gamma leng ahung chan chun kum 5 bou anahi nalaijin ahi, chuleh Jerusalem ma chun kum31 vai anahom min ahi

2 And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, and walked in the ways of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand nor to the left.

Amahi Pakai lunglam tah in anachon nin ahi. Amahin a pului leng David chonna anajuijin Pathen daan ho jouse ana jui bukim min ahi

3 And in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the Asherahs, and the graven images, and the molten images.

Josiah chu khangdong cha in kum 8 ahi kummin leng ana changin, aman apului leng David Pathen chu ana houvin, kum 4 jouvin Asherah pathen lim kisemthu namdang te pathen houna mun jouse doi phungho jouse chu ana suse soh keijin ahi

4 And they broke down the altars of the Baals in his presence; and the sun-pillars that were on high above them he cut down; and the Asherahs and the graven images and the molten images he broke in pieces, and made dust [of them] and strewed it upon the graves of those that had sacrificed to them;

Ama thupeh dung juiyin Baal kihouna jouse leh ahalnam na maicham jouse amiten anaban suhsetnun, Asherah houna limsemthu holeh doiphung ho jouse asugoi sellin hiche ho anahou ho lhan chungah ana theovin ahi

5 and he burned the bones of the priests upon their altars, and purged Judah and Jerusalem.

Aman hiche semthu pathen leh doihou na thempu ho guchu adoi hounao chunga chun meiyin anahallun ahi. Hitia hi ana boljeh in Judah leh Jerusalem mipite chu houthu lamdollin ana sutheng kit nin ahi

6 And [so did he] in the cities of Manasseh and Ephraim and Simeon, even to Naphtali, in their ruins round about;

Aman hitimachun Manasseh, Ephraim leh Simion leh sahlanga Nephtali gamgei jin ana ban suh thengin ahi

7 and he broke down the altars, and beat the Asherahs and the graven images into powder, and cut down all the sun-pillars throughout the land of Israel, and returned to Jerusalem.

Aleng gam sahlang gamho geijin Asherah semthu pathen houna maicham phungho geijin adoi hounao leh gimnamtwi ahalnamnao maicham geijin avochipmin asubong sellin ahi. Hiche jouchun Jerusalem langa akile bepmin ahi

8 And in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he purged the land and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the chronicler, to repair the house of Jehovah his God.

Aman hiti a hi gamdang pathen houna asuhbeija gamsung leh houin sung asuhtheng jouvin Josiah lengpan Pakai Pathen houin semphadingin mi 3 asollin ahi: amahochu Azaliah chapa Shaphan, Jerusalem Governor Maaseiah leh lamkai lenkhat Joahaz chapa Joah ahi

9 And they came to Hilkijah the high priest, and they delivered [to them] the money that had been brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin, and of the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Levi te houin ngah a panghon sum ahin dondoh houchu thempulen Hilkiah henga apelutnun ahi. (Hiche sumchu Ephraim leh Manasseh chuleh sahlam leng gam jouse Judah, Benjamin leh Jerusalem mipite ho jouse – a konna kidongdoh sum ahi

10 And they gave [it] into the hand of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of Jehovah; and they gave it to the workmen who wrought in the house of Jehovah to reinstate and repair the house:

Hiche sumchu houin sempha dinga kinganse mi 3 ho komma chun apelutnun ahi, chuleh amahon thingthem bol chuleh insa ho chu songleh thing achoh uva Judah lengpan anamon lhahsah ho semphat nan amangun ahi

11 they gave [it] to the carpenters and the builders, to buy hewn stone, and timber for the joists, and to floor the houses that the kings of Judah had destroyed.

12 And the men did the work faithfully. And over them were appointed Jahath and Obadiah, Levites, of the children of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the children of the Kohathites, for the oversight; and all these Levites were skilled in instruments of music.

Hiche kintong ho chu lungtheng tah ahiove, amahon chu Levi te mi 4 Merari phunga konna Jahath le Obadiah chuleh Kohath phunga kon Zechariah leh Meshullam, amaho hi nana lamkaijun ahi (Hiche Levi ho hi tumging saithem cheh ahiove)

13 They were also over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that worked in any manner of service. And of the Levites were the scribes, and officers, and doorkeepers.

Levi dangho chu thil thah le leh natoh jatchom chomma natongho chunga vaihom min apangun chuleh adanghon thuching leh miveng bitnin apangun ahi

14 And when they brought out the money that had been brought into the house of Jehovah, Hilkijah the priest found the book of the law of Jehovah by Moses.

Sumchu akoina konna akilah doh chun, Pathen nin Mose anapeh Pakai daan buchu Hilkiah in ahin mudoh in ahi

15 Then Hilkijah spoke and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Jehovah. And Hilkijah gave the book to Shaphan.

Aman Shaphan jeh a “Keiman houin sungah daan bu chu kamudoh tai” ati. Aman lekhabu chu Shaphan apen ahi

16 And Shaphan carried the book to the king. And moreover he brought the king word again saying, All that was committed to the hand of thy servants, they do;

Shaphan chun lekhabu chu achoijin lengpa kommah hiti hin thu agalhut ne: Keihon nangma thupeh bang bangin katongun ahi.

17 and they have emptied out the money that was found in the house of Jehovah, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and into the hand of the workmen.

Keihon houinna kikoi sumchu kalaovin natong holeh avesui ja pang ho kapeovin ahi

18 And Shaphan the scribe informed the king saying, Hilkijah the priest has given me a book. And Shaphan read out of it before the king.

Hijou chun aman “Hilkiah in eipeh lekhabu chu kahin choije” atin lekhabu chu lengpa jahdin ahin simphongin ahi

19 And it came to pass when the king heard the words of the law, that he rent his garments.

Lengpan lekhabu kisim chu ajah phat nin kicha tah in apon abotkeh in ahi

20 And the king commanded Hilkijah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king, saying,

Hichun Hilkiah leh Shaphan chapa Ahikam chuleh Micaiah chapa Abdon chuleh Shaphan athutan na munna lekha jihpa chuleh lengpa kithopi a pang Isaiah ama ho cheng komma chun thu apen:

21 Go, inquire of Jehovah for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book which is found; for great is the wrath of Jehovah that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of Jehovah, to do according to all that is written in this book.

“Nangho cheovinlang keima dingleh tunigeija Israel teleh Judah te gamsunga chengnalai mipi ho dingin Pakai chu eigadoh peh un. Hiche lekhabu thuhil hojong gahechen nun. Ipu ipateovin Pakai thupeh anajuilou jeh uleh hiche lekha hin asei dung jui'a anatoh loujeh un Pakai ichunguvah alung hangtan ahi” ati

22 And Hilkijah and they that the king [had appointed] went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tokehath, son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe: now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the second quarter [of the town]; and they spoke with her to that effect.

Lengpa thupeh dung juiyin Hilkiah leh aloiho acheovin Jerusalem munthah langa cheng themgao numei Huldah chu gadong dingin acheovin ahi. (Ajipa Shallum chu Tikvah chapa, Hasrah tupa chu houin von ho vesuija panga ahi) Themgaonu kommah thilsoh hochu asei peh un ahi

23 And she said to them, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: Tell the man that sent you to me,

Amanun amaho chu lengpa komma kinung leovin lang

24 Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah.

Pakai jakonna thuthot hi seipeh un, “Keiman Jerusalem leh amipiho jouse chunga lengpa komma hiche lekhabu kijih nasim doh u sapset nachu nachung uva kagui lhunsah ding ahi

25 Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my fury shall be poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched.

Ajeh chu amahon keima eipai dohun Jerusalem chungah kalung hanna akoudoh sahtaovin ahi, Hiche hi mit theilou ding ahi atipeh in ahi

26 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Jehovah, thus shall ye say to him: Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel touching the words which thou hast heard:

lengpa dinga chu keima Israel Pakai Pathennin asei ahi: Nangin hiche lekhabu a kisei hi nangaijin ahi,

27 Because thy heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before God, when thou heardest his words against this place and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbledst thyself before me, and didst rend thy garments and weep before me, I also have heard [thee], saith Jehovah.

Chuleh nangman Jerusalem leh amipite Kagih naho najah phatnin nalung naheijin ka angah naki sumnemmin navon nasat tellin nakap jengin ahileh keiman nataona kangai peh tan ahi

28 Behold, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof. And they brought the king word again.

Hijeh chun Jerusalem chunga ka engbol nading nangma thijou teng le bou kaguilhun sah ding ahi. Keiman nangvang lung monga kathisah ding ahi” ati. Hichun amahon hiche thuthot chu apouvin Josiah lengpa kommah akiletaove

29 And the king sent and gathered all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.

Josiah lengpan Judah leh Jerusalem ma lamkai ho jouse chu akou khommin,

30 And the king went up into the house of Jehovah, and all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests and the Levites, and all the people, great and small; and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which had been found in the house of Jehovah.

Abonnin houinnah achekhommun ahi. Amahochu thempu holeh Levi ten chuleh mipi ho jouse mihao leh mivaicha hon abonnun kitepna lekhabu chu ahin simdoh sahtaan ahi

31 And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all his heart and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant that are written in this book.

Amachu lengte dinna munnachun Pakai toh kitepna abollin ahi. Pakai thu dung jui'a athupeh nitding dol hochu nitding chun Pakai toh kitepna ananei khommun ahi

32 And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand [to it]. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.

Aman Benjamin mipiteleh chuche petna Jerusalem ma umjouse chu hiche kitepna juidingin anopsah taan ahi. Hitichun Jerusalem ma mipite chun apu apateo Pathen toh kitepna ana neitaovin ahi

33 And Josiah removed all the abominations out of all the countries that belonged to the children of Israel, and made to serve all that were found in Israel, — to serve Jehovah their God: all his days they did not depart from following Jehovah, the God of their fathers.

Josiah lengpachun Israel mipite gamsunga um kidah umtah doiphung ho jouse chu ana sumang soh in ama hinlai sung chun mipiten apu apateo Pathen, Pakai kinbou anahou sah in ahi
