2 Kings 25
1 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, [that] Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built turrets against it round about.
Zedekiah a manghai te kum ko dongla a pha vaengkah hla rha, hla hnin rha dongah ah tah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar neh a thadueng pum tah Jerusalem la pawk. Te dongah a rhaeh thil tih a kaepvai ah buep a to thil uh.
2 And the city was besieged until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Te dongah khopuei tah Zedekiah manghai kah kum hlai khat hil vongup khuiah om.
3 On the ninth of the [fourth] month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
A hla ko phoeiah tah khopuei ah khokha tlung coeng. Te dongah khohmuen pilnam ham buh om voel pawh.
4 And the city was broken into; and all the men of war [fled] by night, by the way of the gate between the two walls, which [leads] to the king's garden (now the Chaldeans were by the city round about); and they went the way toward the plain.
Tedae khopuei te a pook vaengah tah caemtloek hlang boeih khaw khoyin ah manghai dum kaep, vongtung laklo kah vongka longpuei longah coeuh. Te vaengah khopuei kaepvai kah Khalden rhoek khaw kolken longpuei la cet uh.
5 And the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
Tedae Khalden caem loh manghai hnuk te a hloem tih Jerikho kolken ah a kae uh. Te dongah a caem boeih khaw anih taeng lamloh taekyak uh.
6 And they took the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon unto Riblah; and they pronounced judgment upon him,
Manghai te a tuuk uh tih Riblah kah Babylon manghai taengla a khuen uh phoeiah anih sokah laitloeknah te a thui uh.
7 and slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with chains of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
Zedekiah koca rhoek te a mikhmuh ah a ngawn uh. Zedekiah mik te khaw a dael sak tih rhohum neh a khih phoeiah Babylon la a khuen.
8 And in the fifth month, on the seventh of the month, which was in the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzar-adan, captain of the body-guard, servant of the king of Babylon, came unto Jerusalem;
Babylon manghai, manghai Nebukhanezar kah kum hlai ko kum kah a hla nga, hlasae hnin rhih vaengah Babylon manghai kah sal imtawt boei Nebuzaradan te Jerusalem la pawk.
9 and he burned the house of Jehovah, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem; and every great [man's] house he burned with fire.
Te vaengah BOEIPA im neh manghai im khaw, Jerusalem kah im boeih khaw a hoeh pah tih im len boeih khaw hmai neh a hoeh.
10 And all the army of the Chaldeans that were with the captain of the body-guard broke down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
Jerusalem kaepvai kah vongtung te khaw imtawt boei kah Khalden caem pum loh a palet uh.
11 And Nebuzar-adan the captain of the body-guard carried away captive the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the deserters that had deserted to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
Khopuei ah aka sueng pilnam kah a coih rhoek khaw, Babylon manghai taengla aka kun la aka kun rhoek khaw, hlangping kah a coihpaih khaw imtawt boei Nebuzaradan loh a poelyoe.
12 But the captain of the body-guard left of the poor of the land for vinedressers and husbandmen.
Tedae khohmuen kah khodaeng te tah imtawt boei loh dumpho neh lotawn la a paih.
13 And the brazen pillars that were in the house of Jehovah, and the bases, and the brazen sea that was in the house of Jehovah, the Chaldeans broke in pieces, and carried the brass thereof to Babylon.
BOEIPA im kah rhohum tung te khaw, tungkho te khaw, BOEIPA im kah rhohum tuili te khaw Khalden loh a phaek tih a rhohum rhoek te Babylon la a phueih uh.
14 The cauldrons also and the shovels and the knives and the cups, and all the vessels of copper wherewith they ministered, they took away.
Am neh hmaisoh te khaw, paitaeh neh yakbu te khaw, rhohum hnopai boeih neh amih taengah aka thotat rhoek khaw a loh uh.
15 And the censers and the bowls, that which was of gold in gold, and that which was of silver in silver, the captain of the body-guard took away.
Baelphaih neh baelcak te khaw sui, sui neh ngun, ngun te tah imtawt boei loh a khuen.
16 The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of Jehovah: for the brass of all these vessels there was no weight.
Solomon loh BOEIPA im ham a saii tung panit, tuili pakhat, tungkho rhoek neh a hnopai cungkuem dongkah rhohum te a khiing thui lek pawh.
17 The height of one pillar was eighteen cubits, and the capital upon it was brass, and the height of the capital three cubits; and the network and the pomegranates, upon the capital round about, all of brass: and similarly for the second pillar with the network.
Tung pakhat kah a sang he dong hlai rhet lo tih a sokah tungthi te rhohum la om. Tungthi kah a sang he a dong la dong thum lo. Tungthi soah sahamlong neh talae thaih om tih a kaep boeih te rhohum ni. Te phek la tung pabae dongah khaw sahamlong neh om.
18 And the captain of the body-guard took Seraiah the high priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three doorkeepers.
Imtawt boei loh khosoih boeilu Seraiah neh khosoih hnukthoi Zephaniah khaw, cingkhaa aka hung pathum te khaw a khuen.
19 And out of the city he took a chamberlain that was set over the men of war, and five men of them that were in the king's presence, who were found in the city, and the scribe of the captain of the host, who enrolled the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land that were found in the city.
Te vaengah khopuei lamkah caemtloek hlang so neh manghai maelhmai aka hmu tih khopuei ah aka phoe hlang panga soah hlangtawt la aka om imkhoem pakhat loh khohmuen pilnam aka muk caempuei mangpa kah cadaek neh khopuei ah aka phoe khohmuen pilnam hlang sawmrhuk te a khuen.
20 And Nebuzar-adan the captain of the body-guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah;
Imtawt boei Nebuzaradan loh amih te a loh tih Riblah kah Babylon manghai taengla a thak.
21 and the king of Babylon smote them and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. Thus Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
Amih te Babylon manghai loh a ngawn dongah Khamath khohmuen kah Riblah ah a duek sak. Te tlam ni Judah te amah khohmuen dong lamloh a poelyoe.
22 And [as for] the people that remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left behind, over them he appointed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan.
Pilnam khaw Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh a caknoi rhoek te tah Judah khohmuen ah sueng uh van tih amih ham te Shaphan koca Ahikam capa Gedaliah te a khueh pah.
23 And all the captains of the forces, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah, and they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, namely, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.
Babylon manghai loh Gedaliah a khueh te amih kah tatthai mangpa boeih rhoek neh hlang rhoek loh a yaak uh dongah Mizpah kah Gedaliah te a paan uh. Te vaengah Nethaniah capa Ishmael, Kareah capa Johanan, Netophah Tanhumeth capa Seraiah, Maakathi capa Jaazaniah neh amih kah hlang rhoek khaw thumuh.
24 And Gedaliah swore unto them and to their men, and said to them, Fear not to be servants of the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
Gedaliah loh amih ham neh amih hlang rhoek ham khaw a toemngam tih amih te, “Khalden sal rhoek te rhih uh boeh, khohmuen ah khosa uh lamtah Babylon manghai taengah thotat uh, nangmih taengah voelphoeng bitni,” a ti nah.
25 And it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal seed, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldeans that were with him at Mizpah.
Tedae hla rhih dongla a pha vaengah tah mangpa tiingan lamkah Elishama koca Nethaniah capa Ishmael neh a taengkah hlang parha te ha pawk tih Gedaliah te a ngawn uh. Te dongah Mizpah kah anih taengah aka om Judah rhoek neh Khalden rhoek khaw duek.
26 And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces, arose and came to Egypt; for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
Te dongah pilnam pum te tanoe lamloh kangham hil thoo uh tih tatthai mangpa rhoek khaw Khalden te a rhih uh dongah Egypt la pawk uh.
27 And it came to pass in the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh of the month, [that] Evil-Merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
Judah manghai Jehoiakhin hlangsol kah sawmthum kum rhih neh a hla hlai nit hlasae hnin kul hnin rhih vaengkah Babylon manghai Evilmerodakh a manghai kum dongah Judah manghai Jehoiakhin kah a lu te thong im lamloh a loeih sak.
28 and he spoke kindly to him, and set his seat above the seat of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
Anih te a then a thui pah tih a ngolkhoel te khaw amah taengkah Babylon manghai rhoek kah ngolkhoel lakah a sola a paek.
29 And he changed his prison garments; and he ate bread before him continually all the days of his life;
Anih kah thong himbai te a tho pah tih a hing tue khuiah tah amah mikhmuh ah buh phat a caak sak.
30 and his allowance was a continual allowance given him by the king, every day a portion, all the days of his life.
Anih ham te buhkak mai akhaw a hing tue khuitah a hnin bal, hnin bal, a ol bangla manghai taeng lamkah buhkak te ni anih taengla phat a paek.
