< 2 Chronicles 34 >
1 Josiah was eight when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for thirty-one years.
Josiah Judah gamma leng ahung chan chun kum 5 bou anahi nalaijin ahi, chuleh Jerusalem ma chun kum31 vai anahom min ahi
2 He did what was right in the Lord's sight and followed the ways of his forefather David—he did not deviate to the right or 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 In the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, Josiah began to publicly worship the God of David his forefather, and in the twelfth year of his reign he began to cleanse Judah and Jerusalem by removing the high places, the Asherah poles, the carved idols, and the metal 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 He had the altars of Baal torn down in front of him, and the incense altars above them cut down. In addition, the Asherah poles, the carved idols, and the metal images were smashed to pieces and scattered over the graves of those who had been sacrificing 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 He burned the bones of the idolatrous priests on their altars. In this way he cleansed 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 Josiah repeated this in the towns of Manasseh, Ephraim, and Simeon, all the way to Naphtali, and in their surrounding areas.
Aman hitimachun Manasseh, Ephraim leh Simion leh sahlanga Nephtali gamgei jin ana ban suh thengin ahi
7 He tore down the altars and crushed the Asherah poles and the images to dust, and cut down all the incense altars across the whole land of Israel. Then he went back 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 In the eighteenth year of his reign, once he had finished cleansing the land and the Temple, Josiah sent Shaphan, son of Azaliah, Maaseiah the city governor, and Joah, son of Joahaz, the record-keeper, to repair the Temple of the Lord 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 They went to Hilkiah the high priest and gave him the money that had been brought to God's Temple. The Levites at the entrances had collected this money from the people of Manasseh and Ephraim, from what was left of the people of Israel, as well as contributions from Judah, Benjamin, and the people 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 They handed it over to those who were supervising the repair work on Lord's Temple, who in turn paid the workmen doing the restoring and repairing.
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 also paid carpenters and builders to buy cut stone, as well as timber for joists and beams for the buildings that the kings of Judah had let deteriorate.
12 The men did good, honest work. In charge of them were Jahath and Obadiah, Levites from the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, Levites from the sons of the Kohathites. The Levites, all skilled musicians,
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 were in charge of the workmen and directed everyone involved, depending on what was required. Some of the Levites were scribes, some officers, and some gatekeepers.
Levi dangho chu thil thah le leh natoh jatchom chomma natongho chunga vaihom min apangun chuleh adanghon thuching leh miveng bitnin apangun ahi
14 In the process of taking out the money donated to the Lord's Temple, Hilkiah the priest discovered the Book of the Lord's Law written down by Moses.
Sumchu akoina konna akilah doh chun, Pathen nin Mose anapeh Pakai daan buchu Hilkiah in ahin mudoh in ahi
15 Hilkiah told Shaphan the scribe, “I've found the Book of the Law in the Lord's Temple.” He gave it to Shaphan.
Aman Shaphan jeh a “Keiman houin sungah daan bu chu kamudoh tai” ati. Aman lekhabu chu Shaphan apen ahi
16 Shaphan took the book to the king and told him, “We your servants are doing everything we were instructed to do.
Shaphan chun lekhabu chu achoijin lengpa kommah hiti hin thu agalhut ne: Keihon nangma thupeh bang bangin katongun ahi.
17 The money collected at the Lord's Temple has been handed over to those who are supervising the workers, paying them to do the repairs.”
Keihon houinna kikoi sumchu kalaovin natong holeh avesui ja pang ho kapeovin ahi
18 Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest gave me this book.” Shaphan read it to the king.
Hijou chun aman “Hilkiah in eipeh lekhabu chu kahin choije” atin lekhabu chu lengpa jahdin ahin simphongin ahi
19 When the king heard what the Law said, he tore his clothes.
Lengpan lekhabu kisim chu ajah phat nin kicha tah in apon abotkeh in ahi
20 Then he issue the following orders to Hilkiah, Ahikam, son of Shaphan, Abdon, son of Micah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah, the king's assistant:
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 and talk to the Lord for me, and also for those who still live in Israel and Judah, about what is said in the book that's been found. For the Lord must be really angry with us because our forefathers have not obeyed the Lord's instructions by following all that's 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 Hilkiah and those the king had selected went and talked with Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, custodian of the wardrobe. She lived in Jerusalem, in the city's second quarter.
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 Huldah told them, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Tell the man who sent you to me,
Amanun amaho chu lengpa komma kinung leovin lang
24 this is what the Lord says: I am about to bring disaster down on this place and on its people, in accordance with all the curses written in the book that has been read to 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 They have abandoned me and offered sacrifices to other gods, making me angry by everything they've done. My anger will be poured out upon this place and will not be stopped.
Ajeh chu amahon keima eipai dohun Jerusalem chungah kalung hanna akoudoh sahtaovin ahi, Hiche hi mit theilou ding ahi atipeh in ahi
26 But tell the king of Judah who sent you to ask the Lord, tell him this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: As for the what you heard read to you—
lengpa dinga chu keima Israel Pakai Pathennin asei ahi: Nangin hiche lekhabu a kisei hi nangaijin ahi,
27 because you were receptive and repentant before God when you heard his warnings against this place and against its people, and because you have repented, tearing your clothes and weeping before me, I have also heard you, declares the Lord.
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 All this will not happen until after you have died, and you will die in peace. You will not see all the disaster that I'm going to bring down on this place and on its inhabitants.” They went back to the king and gave him her response.
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 Then the king summoned all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
Josiah lengpan Judah leh Jerusalem ma lamkai ho jouse chu akou khommin,
30 He went to the Lord's Temple with all the people of Judah and Jerusalem, together with the priests and the Levites, all the people from the least to the greatest, and he read to them the whole Book of the Agreement that had been discovered in the Lord's Temple.
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 The king stood by the pillar and made a solemn agreement before the Lord to follow him and to keep his commandments, laws, and regulations with total dedication, and to observe the requirements of the agreement as written in the 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 Then he had everyone present from Jerusalem and Benjamin stand up to show they agreed to it. So all the people of Jerusalem accepted and followed the agreement with God, the God of their forefathers.
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 Josiah demolished all the vile idols from the whole territory belonging to the Israelites, and he made everyone in Israel serve the Lord their God. During his reign they did not give up worshiping the Lord, 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
