2 Kings 18
1 And it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea the son of Elah, king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz, king of Judah, began to reign.
Israel gam’ah Hoshea leng chankal kum thum alhin in, Ahaz chapa Hezekiah in Judah gam’ah lengvai ahin hom pan’in ahi.
2 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Abi, daughter of Zechariah.
Ama leng ahung chan chun akum somni le nga alhingtan ahi, chuleh Jerusalem’ah kum smni le ko lengvai anahom’in ahi. Anuchu Abijah, Zechariah chanu ahi.
3 And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done.
Amahin apu David bangin Pathen mitmun Pathen deilam jeng ana bollin ahi.
4 He removed the high places, and broke the columns, and cut down the Asherahs, and broke in pieces the serpent of brass that Moses had made; for to those days the children of Israel burned incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
Aman Pathen neilouho doiphung ana sumangin doikhom jouse jong avobong sohkeijin, Asherah doikhum hojong aphulhun, Mose’n sum-eng gullim ana semjong chu ana suchip in ahi, ajeh chu Israelten hiche gullim kisem komahi kilhaina asem uva gimnamtui jong ahal uva alhut nam jiu ahi. Hiche sum-eng gullim chu Nehushtan tin ana kihe in ahi.
5 He trusted in Jehovah the God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] that were before him.
Hezekiah in Pakai Israel Pathen chu ana tahsan’in ahi. Ama masang hihen anung hijongle, Judah gam lengho lah’a ama tobang koima ana umpon ahi.
6 And he clave to Jehovah, and did not turn aside from following him, but kept his commandments, which Jehovah commanded Moses.
Aman Pakai chu imalam jouse in kitah tah in ana juiyin, chuleh aman Pathen’in Mose anapeh thupeh hochu lhingtah in ana juiyin ahi.
7 And Jehovah was with him; he prospered whithersoever he went forth. And he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin ama chu ana umpi jing in, chuleh Hezekiah hi abolna atohna chan’ah alolhing in ahi. Amahin Assyria lengpa dounan kai pehding jong ana nompon ahi.
8 He smote the Philistines unto Gazah and its borders, from the watchmen's tower to the fortified city.
Aman Philistinte chu Gaza chanle agamsung’u khoneopen apat khopi lenpen Gaza le akimvel kho kulpi kikaikhum khopi geijin ana jouvin ahi.
9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea the son of Elah, king of Israel, [that] Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria and besieged it.
Israel gam'a Hoshea lengpa vaihomkal kum sagi alhin in, Hezekiah lengvai hom kum alhin in, Assyria lengpa Shalmaneser chun Samaria khopi ahin um’in ahi.
10 And at the end of three years they took it; in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is, the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken.
Kum thum nungin, Israel lengpa Hoshea lengchan kal kum ko alhin chuleh Hezekiah lengchan kal kum gup alhin in, Samaria khopi chu pangjou talouvin alhutan ahi.
11 And the king of Assyria carried away Israel to Assyria, and settled them in Halah and by the Habor, the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes;
Hichephat chun Assyria lengpan Israelte chu Assyria gam Halah mun’ah sohchang’in akoitan ahi. Hichehi Medes khopi sung Gozan munna Habon vadung pang ahi.
12 because they hearkened not to the voice of Jehovah their God, but transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded; and they would not hear nor do it.
Ajeh chu amahon Pakai a Pathen’u thupeh ajuinom pouvin, chuti sangin Pakai toh akitepnao asukeh’un, Pakai lhacha Mose in danho le anit diuva athupeh ho ana nitnom pouvin ahi.
13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them.
Hezekiah lengpa leng chankal kum som le li alhin in, Assyria lengpa Sennacherib ahungkon’in Judah khopi kulpi kigensa khopi hojouse chu ahin nokhum in, abonin alatan ahi.
14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have sinned; retire from me: I will bear what thou layest upon me. And the king of Assyria laid upon Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
Hezekiah lengpan Lachish munna um Assyria lengpa kom’a hitihin thu athot’in, “Keiman kabol kheltai, gal bol na ngah a nakinungle kit poupouleh, ijat hijongleh nangin na-ngeh chan kai pejeng tange,” ati. Assyria lengpan kinopto thei lhonna dingin dangka ton somle khat chuleh sana ton khat angeh’in ahi.
15 And Hezekiah gave all the silver that was found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the king's house.
Hijat suhbulhit nading in, Hezekiah lengpan Pakai houin’a dangka kikoi jouse leh leng inpi’a sumle pai jouse jong achomkhom’in ahi.
16 At that time Hezekiah stripped the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the posts that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave them to the king of Assyria.
Hezekiah lengpan Pakai houin kot tomna’a ananei sana hochu akhoh lhan chuleh kot khom ho chunga kiloi sana hojong chu akhoh lhan Assyria lengpa chu apetan ahi.
17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish, with a strong force, against king Hezekiah, to Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is on the highway of the fuller's field.
Ahijing vang'in Assyria lengpan asepai lamkai lenpen patoh, galmunna lamkaipa ahin asepai lamkaiho pipui chunga apipuipa chutoh Lachish akonin, sepai tamtah toh Jerusalem’a Hezekiah lengpa toh kimaito dingin asollin ahi. Assyria mite hin sahlang twikulla twikilhutna pang chuleh pon kisopna mun na kithunglutna lamlen kom’a chun adingun ahi.
18 And they called to the king. Then came forth to them Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the chronicler.
Amahon Hezekiah lengpa chu kimupi dingin akouvun ahileh amaho toh kimu toding anoija natong ho Hilkiah chapa Eliakim, leng inpia vaihompa, thutanna munna lekhasun pu Shebna chuleh lengte thusim chinpa Asaph chapa Joah hocheng chu ana sollin ahi.
19 And Rab-shakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
Hiche jouchun, Assyria lengpa noija lamkai pipuipa chun Hezekiah thuthot ana neiyin, “Hichehi Assyria leng lenpa amatah kamcheng ahi, ‘Koipen natahsan a, koipen nakisonpi hitia hi lung olmo lou hella naum ham?” ati.
20 Thou sayest — but it is a word of the lips — There is counsel and strength for war. Now on whom dost thou rely, that thou hast revolted against me?
“Nangin thu homkeova hi sepai galsat thepna le athahat na ho akhel thei dia natasah ham? Koipen chunga naki-ngaiya keima nei dou jeng ham?
21 Now behold, thou reliest upon the staff of that broken reed, upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it goes into his hand and pierces it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that rely upon him.
Ole Egypt chunga nakisonpi ham? Egypt chunga nakingai ahileh hiche Egypt khu peng tenggol natahsa gih in atouchip’a nakhut asuhvang tobangbep hiding ahi. Egypt lengpa Pharaoh hi kingaina thei hilou hel ahi,” ati.
22 And if ye say to me, We rely upon Jehovah our God: is it not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has removed, saying to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
“Ahin nangin kakom’a, Keiho Pakai ka Pathen uva kingai kahi nati diu ahi, ahinla Amachu Hezekiah in noise tah’a anabol hilouham? Judah gam le Jerusalem mite Jerusalem maicham phungseh a bou Pathen houdia seipeh a, Pakai doiphung jouse le maicham ho sumang pa Hezekiah hilou ham?” ati.
23 And now, engage, I pray thee, with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou canst set the riders upon them.
“Keima naseipeh uvinge! KaPakaipa Assyria lengpa hitoh kinoptona bol lhon’in, nangin mi naneijou dingleh sakol sangni na penge.
24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants? And thou reliest upon Egypt for chariots and for horsemen!
Hitobang sepai honlhomcha khat’a hi, kapupa sepaihon ahatmopen jeng jonghi nachou-ngam ding hinam? Egypt sakol kangtalai holeh kangtalai touthem hotoh kitho jongle chun i-nalo ding ham?
25 Am I now come up without Jehovah against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it.
Tua hi ipimong mong nagel ham, nagam kahin nokhum’u jong hi, Pakaiyin eihin sollu ahi nahet lou u-ham? Gamsung khu ganokhum’unlang gasumang’un tia, Pakai amatah chun eiseipeh lou uva nagel uham?” ati.
26 And Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, and Shebnah and Joah said to Rab-shakeh, Speak, we pray thee, to thy servants in Syriac, for we understand it, and talk not with us in the Jewish [language] in the ears of the people that are on the wall.
Hichun Hilkiah chapa Eliakim, Shebna le Joah chun Syria gal lamkai pipuipa kom’achun, “Lungset tah in keiho kom’ah Aramaic paovin neiseipeh’un, hichu keihon jong phaten apao chu kahe nauve. Hebrew paovin neiseipeh hih un, ajeh chu pal chung’a mipi hohin jakha get unte,” atiuve.
27 And Rab-shakeh said to them, Is it to thy master and to thee that my master sent me to speak these words? Is it not to the men that sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you?
Ahinlah sepai lamkai pipui Sennacherib chun ahin donbut’in, “KaPakai pauvin hiche thuhi napupau leh nangho chengseh jah dinga eiseisah uva nagellu ham? Mijousen ajah ding hi aman adei ahi. Ajeh chu hiche khopi hi kalah tenguleh amaho jong nangho toh thohgim thadiu ahi. Genthei jeh'a gilkel behseh tengle a-eh anehdiu chuleh dangchah behseh teng le ajun’u adondiu ahi.
28 And Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish [language], and spoke and said, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria!
Hichun sepai lamkai pipuipa chun pal chunga um mipiho hetdingin Hebrew paovin asap in asap thon, Assyria leng lenpa thupeh hi ngaijun,
29 Thus says the king: Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of the [king's] hand.
“Lengpan aseichu hiche ahi, Hezekiah chu kilhep lhahsah hih un. Aman itinama jongleh keima thaneina-a konin nahuhdoh joupou vinte.
30 Neither let Hezekiah make you rely upon Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will certainly deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Aman nangho Pakai tahsan dingin kilhep lhahsah hihun, Pakaiyin eihuhdoh teidiu ahi, hiche tehohi Assyria lengpa khutna lutlou helding ahi atiu chu tahsan hih un.
31 Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus says the king of Assyria: Make peace with me, and come out to me; and eat every one of his vine and every one of his fig-tree, and drink every one the waters of his own cistern;
Hezekiah thusei tahsan hih un, Assyria lengpan nangho napehnom’u kitepna chu hichehi ahi. Keitoh chamna sem’un, khopi kelkot hi hong’unlang hung potdoh’un. Achutileh nanghon nalengpithei’u leh nathei chang’u nakinehdiu, chuleh na tuikul uva nakidondiu ahi.
32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-trees and of honey, that ye may live and not die; and hearken not to Hezekiah, when he persuades you, saying, Jehovah will deliver us.
Chutengleh keiman nangho hiche tobang gamchom khatna kapohlut diu, changphat nale lengpithei phatna changlhah leh lengpithei phatna, olive thingle khoiju lonna munna kapuilut ding nahiuve. Thina sang’in hinkho kilhen joh un! Hezekiah in Pakaiyin eihuhdoh diu ahi atia nalhep lhah got’u chu tahsan hih un,
33 Have any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Koipen nam apathen’un Assyria lengpa khut’a ahuhdoh nahetkhah uvem?
34 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? and have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Hamath khopi le Arpad khopi teni pathen in ipi abolthei beh am? geldoh un, chuleh Sephervaim khopi, Hena khopi leh Ivvah khopi teho pathen ipi atohdoh beham? Koi pathen in kathahat na a kona Samariah ahuhdoh beham?
35 Which are they among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their country out of my hand, that Jehovah should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Itobang nammite Pathen in kathaneina akona amite ahuhdoh beh am? Achutile ipi pentah chun Pakaiyin Jerusalem hi ka khut akona ahhuhing jou dia nagelsah mong’u ahidem?
36 But the people were silent and answered him not a word; for the king's command was, saying, Answer him not.
Ahinlah mipite chu Hezekiah in, “Thipbeh un donbut hih un,” tia thu apeh dungjuijun athipbeh un, koimacha apaopoh aumpou vin ahi.
37 And Eliakim the son of Hilkijah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph, the chronicler, came to Hezekiah with their garments rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
Hijou chun leng inpia vaihompa Hilkiah chapa Eliakim thutanna'a lekhasun Shebna chuleh thusimbu chingpa Asaph chapa Joah chu Hezekiah kom’ah acheuvin lungimtah in asangkhol abot-eh un, hiti chun lengpa kimupin acheuvin, Assyria sepai lamkai pipuipa thusei chu aseipeh tauvin ahi.
