2 Kings 18
1 In the third year of Osee the son of Ela king of Israel, reigned Ezechias the son of Achaz king of Juda.
Isarel siangpahrang Elah capa Hosi a bawinae kum pâthum navah, Judah siangpahrang Ahaz capa Hezekiah teh siangpahrang lah ao.
2 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Abi the daughter of Zacharias.
Bawi a kamtawng navah, ahni teh kum 25 touh a pha. Jerusalem vah 29 a bawi teh a manu min teh Abi, Zekhariah canu doeh.
3 And he did that which was good before the Lord, according to all that David his father had done.
A na min Devit ni a sak e pueng a sak teh BAWIPA mithmu vah kalan e hah ouk a sak.
4 He destroyed the high places, and broke the statues in pieces, and cut down the groves, and broke the brazen serpent, which Moses had made: for till that time the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called its name Nohestan.
Hmuenrasang hah a pahnawt teh meikaphawknaw a raphoe awh. Mosi ni a sak e rahum tahrun hah rep a dei awh. Hote atueng totouh Isarelnaw ni ahni koe hmuitui a thueng awh teh, hot teh Nehushta atipouh awh.
5 He trusted in the Lord the God of Israel: so that after him there was none like him among all the kings of Juda, nor any of them that were before him:
Ahni teh Isarel BAWIPA Cathut a kângue. Hahoi ahni hnukkhu hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw thung dawk ahni patetlah apihai awm hoeh, a hnukkhu hai awm hoeh.
6 And he stuck to the Lord, and departed not from his steps, but kept his commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA hah kacaklah a kuet. A hnuk pou a kâbang. BAWIPA ni Mosi koe a kâpoelawknaw a poe e hah a tarawi.
7 Wherefore the Lord also was with him, and in all things, to which he went forth, he behaved himself wisely. And he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and served him not.
BAWIPA ni ahni koe ao pouh, a tâco a ceio nah pueng koe a lamcawn pouh. Assiria siangpahrang hah a tuk teh a san lah awm pouh hoeh.
8 He smote the Philistines as far as Gaza, and all their borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
Filistinnaw hoiyah, Gaza totouh kacakpounge khopuinaw hoi ramvengimnaw hah koung a tâ awh.
9 In the fourth year of king Ezechias, which was the seventh year of Osee the son of Ela king of Israel, Salmanasar king of the Assyrians came up to Samaria, and besieged it,
Hezekiah siangpahrang a bawinae kum 4 navah Isarel siangpahrang Elah capa Hosi a bawinae kum 7 nah hettelah doeh ao. Assiria siangpahrang Shalmaneser ni Samaria a tuk teh king a kalup.
10 And took it. For after three years, in the sixth year of Ezechias, that is, in the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, Samaria was taken:
A kum pâthum abaw tawmlei nah a la. Hezekiah a bawi kum 6 navah Isarel siangpahrang Hosi a bawi kum 9 nah Samaria koung a la.
11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away Israel into Assyria, and placed them in Hale, and in Habor by the rivers of Gozan in the cities of the Medes:
Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA e kâpoelawk a ngâi awh hoeh, kecu dawk Samaria teh Assiria ni a la awh. BAWIPA e san Mosi koehoi Isarelnaw hai BAWIPA e lawkkam a sak awh e teh a ek awh teh, tarawi ngai awh hoeh. Lawk ngai awh hoeh teh a lawkkam hai tarawi awh hoeh.
12 Because they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord their God, but transgressed his covenant: all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, they would not hear nor do.
Assiria siangpahrang ni Isarelnaw hah, Assiria ram koung a hrawi teh, Gozan palang teng, Medes khopui Halah, Habor naw dawkvah a ta.
13 In the fourteenth year of king Ezechias, Sennacherib king of the Assyrians came up against the fenced cities of Juda: and took them.
Siangpahrang Hezekiah ni Judah ram a uknae kum 14 nah, Assiria siangpahrang Sennacherib ni Judah ram thung rapan hoi king kalup e khopuinaw a tuk teh koung a tâ.
14 Then Ezechias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying: I have offended, depart from me: and all that thou shalt put upon me, I will bear. And the king of the Assyrians put a tax upon Ezechias king of Juda, of three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.
Lakhish ni Assiria siangpahrang koevah, Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah ni ka payon toe. Na ban takhai teh, kai van na toung e pueng teh ka tawk han telah lawk a thui. Assiria siangpahrang ni Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah koe tangka talen 300 touh hoi sui talen 30 touh a hei.
15 And Ezechias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s treasures.
Hahoi teh, Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA im hoi siangpahrang im a ta awh e tangka hoi suinaw pueng a poe.
16 At that time Ezechias broke the doors of the temple of the Lord, and the plates of gold which he had fastened on them, and gave them to the king of the Assyrians.
Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA bawkim takhang a hlun awh e Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah ni khom sui e a hlun e hah abuemlah he a la teh Assiria siangpahrang a poe.
17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Rabsaris, and Rabsaces from Lachis to king Ezechias with a strong army to Jerusalem: and they went up and came to Jerusalem, and they stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the way of the fuller’s field.
Hahoi Assiria siangpahrang ni ransabawi Rabsaris, Rabshakeh, hoi ransa moikapap hoi Lakhish hoi Jerusalem Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah koe vah, a patoun teh, Jerusalem a pha awh. A pha toteh hnicu kapasunaw law lam tuikamuemnae kanîtholah, kaawm e tui lanae a teng vah a kangdue awh.
18 And they called for the king: and there went out to them Eliacim the son of Helcias who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder.
Siangpahrang hah a kaw a toteh, imthung kahrawikung, Hilkiah capa Eliakim hoi cakathutkung Shebna, hoi lairui kathutkung Asaph capa Joab hah ahnimouh koe a tâco.
19 And Rabsaces said to them: Speak to Ezechias: Thus saith the great king, the king of the Assyrians: What is this confidence, wherein thou trustest?
Rabshakeh ni, Hezekiah koevah dei pouh awh, siangpahrang ka lentoe Assiria siangpahrang ni, telah a dei, apimaw na kângue teh na lungmawngkhai vaw.
20 Perhaps thou hast taken counsel, to prepare thyself for battle. On whom dost thou trust, that thou darest to rebel?
Ransa thaw nahane teh, thaonae hoi khokhangthoumnae ka tawn na ti nahoehmaw. Hatei, hot teh lawk rumram na dei e doeh. Kai tuk hanelah, apimaw na kângue.
21 Dost thou trust in Egypt a staff of a broken reed, upon which if a man lean, it will break and go into his hand, and pierce it? so is Pharao king of Egypt, to all that trust in him.
Khenhaw! kâkhoe e lungpum sonron Izip na kângue teh hot patetlae tami ngaihawi pawiteh, a kut a ruk pouh han, Izip siangpahrang Faro ka kângue e pueng teh, hot patetlah doeh ouk ao awh.
22 But if you say to me: We trust in the Lord our God: is it not he, whose high places and altars Ezechias hath taken away: and hath commanded Juda and Jerusalem: You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
Nahoeh pawiteh, kai koevah BAWIPA Cathut hah ka kângue na teh awh pawiteh, ahni teh Hezekiah ni, Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem hanlah, Jerusalem e thuengnae khoungroe hmalah, hmuenrasang koe na bawk awh han na ka tet ni teh hote khoungroe ka raphoe e hah ahni nahoehmaw telah a ti.
23 Now therefore come over to my master the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, and see whether you be able to have riders for them.
Hot patetlah, ka bawipa Assiria siangpahrang hoi lawkkamnae sak awh. Avan kâcui hane na hmawt thai pawiteh, marang 2,000 touh na poe han.
24 And how can you stand against one lord of the least of my master’s servants? Dost thou trust in Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Bangtelamaw marang hoi marangransanaw kecu dawk Izipnaw koe na yuemnae na patue pawiteh, bawipa e sannaw thung dawk ka thoungca e kahrawikung buet touh heh na rungngang thai han vaw.
25 Is it without the will of the Lord that I am come up to this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me: Go up to this land and destroy it.
BAWIPA laipalah hoi maw na ram heh ka tuk teh ka raphoe awh vaw. BAWIPA ni kai koevah, hete ram tuk hanlah cet haw, be raphoe haw na ti pouh dawk doeh.
26 Then Eliacim the son of Helcias, and Sobna, and Joahe said to Rabsaces: We pray thee speak to us thy servants in Syriac: for we understand that tongue: and speak not to us in the Jews’ language, in the hearing of the people that are upon the wall.
Hilkiah capa Eliakim hoi Shebna hoi Joab ni Rabshakeh koevah pahren lahoi na sannaw hah, Aramaih lawk hoi ka pato awh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hot teh ka thai awh ngoun. khopui kalupnae thung kaawmnaw a thai nahanlah Hebru lawk hoi na pato hanh lawih telah ati awh.
27 And Rabsaces answered them, saying: Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee, to speak these words, and not rather to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their urine with you?
Hatei, Rabshakeh ni a hni koe, ka bawipa ni na bawipa koe nangmouh koe dueng maw, hete lawk dei hanelah, na patoun vaw. Rapan van ka tahung e amae payungpaei ka cat ka net naw koe maw na patoun vaw telah a ti.
28 Then Rabsaces stood, and cried out with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and said: Hear the words of the great king, the king of the Assyrians.
Rabshakeh teh a kangdue teh, Hebru lawk hoi kacaipounglah a hram teh, ka lentoe Assiria siangpahrang lawk hah ngai awh haw.
29 Thus saith the king: Let not Ezechias deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of my hand.
Siangpahrang ni telah a dei. Hezekiah ka dum e lah awm hanh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh ama ni, a kut dawk hoi na rungngang thai mahoeh.
30 Neither let him make you trust in the Lord, saying: The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
Hezekiah ni, BAWIPA ni na rungngang roeroe vaiteh hete khopui heh Assiria siangpahrang kut dawk poe lah awm mahoeh telah BAWIPA hah kângue awh hanh naseh.
31 Do not hearken to Ezechias. For thus saith the king of the Assyrians: Do with me that which is for your advantage, and come out to me: and every man of you shall eat of his own vineyard, and of his own fig tree: and you shall drink water of your own cisterns,
Hezekiah lawk hah yuem hanh awh. Assiria siangpahrang ni hettelah a dei. Kai koe roumnae sak awh nateh hi tho awh. Na ram patetlah cakang hoi misur e ram, vaiyei hoi misur takha,
32 Till I come, and take you away to a land, like to your own land, a fruitful land, and plentiful in wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olives, and oil and honey, and you shall live, and not die. Hearken not to Ezechias, who deceiveth you, saying: The Lord will deliver us.
Olive hoi khoitui ram, dout laipalah hringnae ram, koe na ceikhai hoehroukrak teh tami pueng ni mae misurkung dawk hoi a paw cat awh nateh tami pueng ni, mae thaibunglung dawk e a paw rip ca vaiteh tami pueng ni mae tuikhu tui rip net awh. Hezekiah ni BAWIPA ni na rungngang awh han doeh telah na ka pasawt nakunghai tang awh hanh loe.
33 Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
Miphun tangkuem e cathutnaw ni, a ram teh Assiria siangpahrang koehoi ouk na rangngang awh boimaw.
34 Where is the god of Emath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Sepharvaim, of Ana, and of Ava? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Hamath hoi Arpad cathutnaw hah namaw koung ao awh vaw. Sepharvaim hoi Hena hoi Ivvah naw e cathutnaw hai namaw koung ao awh. Samaria hah kai koehoi na rungngang thai awh maw.
35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the Lord may deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Ram tangkuem cathutnaw pueng thung dawk hoi apimaw kai koehoi ka rungngang thai. BAWIPA ni Jerusalem kho heh kai koehoi a rungngang han taya telah a ti.
36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for they had received commandment from the king that they should not answer him.
Ahnimanaw teh duem ao awh teh kam touh boehai pathung awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang ni kâlawk poe e patetlah ahnimanaw teh pathung awh hanh loe atipouh.
37 And Eliacim the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph the recorder, came to Ezechias, with their garments rent, and told him the words of Rabsaces.
Hahoi teh, siangpahrang imthung kahrawikung Hilkiah capa Eliakim hoi cakathutkung Shebna hoi lairui kathutkung Asaph capa Joab hah a phi awh e khohna a kâmahrawksak teh, Hezekiah koevah a cei awh teh, Rabshakeh ni a dei e lawk hah a dei pouh awh.
