2 Kings 22
1 Josias was eight years old when he began to reign: he reigned one and thirty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Idida, the daughter of Hadaia, of Besecath.
Josiah teh siangpahrang a tawk nah kum 8 touh boung a pha. Jerusalem vah kum 31 touh siangpahrang a tawk. A manu min teh Jedidah, Bozkath kho e Adaiah e canu doeh.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the ways of David his father: he turned not aside to the right hand, or to the left.
BAWIPA mithmu vah hnokahawi pou a sak. A na pa Devit ni a dawn e lamnaw pueng a dawn teh avoilah aranglah phen hoeh.
3 And in the eighteenth year of king Josias, the king sent Saphan the son of Assia, the son of Messulam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:
Siangpahrang Josiah a bawi kum 18 nah hettelah ao. Meshullam capa, Azaliah capa cakathutkung Shaphan hah a patoun teh,
4 Go to Helcias the high priest, that the money may be put together which is brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have gathered of the people.
vaihma kacue Hilkiah koevah cet nateh, longkha karingkungnaw ni taminaw koe a la awh teh BAWIPA e im dawk a thokhai e tangkanaw hah touk naseh.
5 And let it be given to the workmen by the overseers of the house of the Lord: and lot them distribute it to those that work in the temple of the Lord, to repair the temple:
Hahoi, BAWIPA im dawk thaw katawknaw khenyawnkung koe poe nateh ahni ni a rawknae koe e pathoup nahanelah, BAWIPA im vah thaw katawknaw hoi,
6 That is, to carpenters and masons, and to such as mend breaches: and that timber may be bought, and stones out of the quarries, to repair the temple of the Lord.
thingkong kasakkung, im kasakkung hoi im rawknae kapathoupkung naw ni, a rawknae pathoup nahane dawk thing hoi talung naw ran nahanelah poe naseh, telah BAWIPA im lah a patoun.
7 But let there be no reckoning made with them of the money which they receive, but let them have it in their power, and in their trust.
Hateiteh tangka ka sin sak e naw ni touk hai touk awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, yuemkamculah a hno awh.
8 And Helcias the high priest said to Saphan the scribe: I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord: and Helcias gave the book to Saphan, and he read it.
Vaihma kacue Hilkiah ni cakathutkung Shaphan koevah, BAWIPA im dawk kâlawk cauk hah ka hmu telah atipouh. Hilkiah ni cauk teh Shaphan koe a poe teh ahni ni a touk.
9 And Saphan the scribe came to the king, and brought him word again concerning that which he had commanded, and said: Thy servants have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and they have given it to be distributed to the workmen, by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.
Hahoi, cakathutkung Shaphan ni siangpahrang koe a cei teh, siangpahrang koevah kamthang ka thokhai. Na taminaw ni im dawk e tangka a hmu e naw hah BAWIPA e im dawk thaw katawknaw a poe toe telah atipouh.
10 And Saphan the scribe told the king, saying: Helcias the priest hath delivered to me a book. And when Saphan had read it before the king,
Cakathutkung Shaphan ni, vaihma Hilkiah ni cauk na poe na a telah siangpahrang koe a dei pouh teh, Shaphan ni siangpahrang e hmalah a touk.
11 And the king had heard the words of the law of the Lord, he rent his garments.
Hahoi, siangpahrang ni kâlawk cauk dawk e lawk a thai toteh angki hah a phi.
12 And he commanded Helcias the priest, and Ahicam the son of Saphan, and Achobor the son of Micha, and Saphan the scribe, and Asaia the king’s servant, saying:
Siangpahrang ni, vaihma Hilkiah, Shaphan capa Ahikam, Mikaiah capa Akbor, cakathutkung Shaphan hoi siangpahrang e a san Asaiah koevah,
13 Go and consult the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Juda, concerning the words of this book which is found: for the great wrath of the Lord is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book, to do all that is written for us.
kai hoi maya hoi Judahnaw pueng hanelah, hete cauk dawk hmu e lah ao patetlah BAWIPA koe na het pouh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, sak awh hane hete mintoenaw ni a sak hoeh kecu dawk maimouh tak dawk BAWIPA lungkhueknae teh hoe a len telah a ti.
14 So Helcias the priest, and Ahicam, and Achobor, and Saphan, and Asaia went to Holda the prophetess the wife of Sellum the son of Thecua, the son of Araas keeper of the wardrobe, who dwelt in Jerusalem in the Second: and they spoke to her.
Hahoi vaihma Hilkiah, Ahikam, Akabor, Shaphan hoi Asaiah a hnicu khenyawnkung Harhas capa Tikvah capa, Shallum napui profet Huldah koevah a cei awh teh a kâhno awh. (Ahni teh Jerusalem kho hnuklah ao)
15 And she said to them: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Tell the man that sent you to me:
Napui ni ahnimouh koe Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei, kai koe kapatounkung koe,
16 Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will bring evils upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, all the words of the law which the king of Juda hath read:
khenhaw! hete hmuen koehai thoseh, athung e kho kasaknaw koehai thoseh, Judah siangpahrang ni cauk dawk a touk e rawkphainae patetlah rawkphainae hah a pha sak han.
17 Because they have forsaken me, and have sacrificed to strange gods, provoking me by all the works of their hands: therefore my indignation shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, na ceitakhai awh teh cathut alouke koe hmuitui a thueng awh teh, a kut hoi a sak awh e ni ka lung na khuek sak awh dawkvah, hete hmuen koevah ka lungkhueknae hmai hoe ka pataw lah ka kaman sak vaiteh roum mahoeh toe.
18 But to the king of Juda, who sent you to consult the Lord, thus shall you say: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Forasmuch as thou hast heard the words of the book,
Hatei kai koe hei hane a patoun e naw Judah siangpahrang koevah BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Na thai e lawk kong dawk,
19 And thy heart hath been moved to fear, and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord, hearing the words against this place, and the inhabitants thereof, to wit, that they should become a wonder and a curse: and thou hast rent thy garments, and wept before me, I also have heard thee, saith the Lord:
hete hmuen hoi athung kaawm e taminaw heh ka rawk e hoi thoebo e lah ao awh han telah ka dei e hah na thai toe. Na lung a nem teh BAWIPA hmalah kârahoum laihoi na angki na phi teh ka hmalah na ka dawkvah, kai ni hai na lawk ka thai telah, BAWIPA ni a ti.
20 Therefore I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy sepulchre in peace, that thy eyes may not see all the evils which I will bring; upon this place.
Hottelah, khenhaw! na mintoenaw koe na cei vaiteh na tangkom dawk karoumcalah na cei han. Hete hmuen koe rawknae kâhmo hane naw teh na mit ni koung hmawt mahoeh ati telah na dei pouh awh han telah atipouh. Hottelah kamthang teh siangpahrang koevah a dei pouh awh.
