< 2 Kings 12 >
1 Joash became king in the seventh year of the reign of Jehu, and he reigned in Jerusalem for forty years. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
Jehu a bawinae kum 7 navah, Jehoash teh siangpahrang lah ao. Jerusalem vah kum 40 touh a uk, a manu min teh Zibiah Beersheba kho e tami doeh.
2 Joash did what was right in the Lord's sight during the years that Jehoiada the priest advised him.
Vaihma, Jehoiada ni Jehoash a pâtu nathung pueng teh BAWIPA mithmu vah, hawinae hah ouk a sak.
3 Even so, the high places were not removed—the people went on sacrificing and presenting burnt offerings at these places.
Hatei hmuenrasang lah puen kalawn hoeh. Hmuenrasang dawk tami moikapap ni Cathut thuengnae hmuitui a sawi awh.
4 Joash told the priests, “Collect together all the money that is brought as holy offerings to the Lord's Temple, whether the census money, the money from individual vows, and the money brought as a voluntary donation to the Lord's Temple.
Jehoash ni vaihmanaw koe BAWIPA im vah kâenkhai e hno kathoung ratangnae, hnopainaw pueng, milu touk tangcoungnaw koe kacetnaw pueng hanelah, khoe lah kaawm e kâratangnae hnonaw hoi bangpatet e tami ni BAWIPA im vah a ceikhai teh a pasoung awh e naw hah,
5 Let each priest receive the money from those who give, and use it to repair whatever damage is discovered in the Temple.”
vaihmanaw ni, amamae a uk awh e thungup lat van naseh. Bawkim a rawknae hmuen tangkuem koe rem awh naseh atipouh.
6 But by the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, the priests still had not repaired the damage to the Temple.
Hatei siangpahrang Jehoash teh kum 23 touh a bawi nakunghai vaihmanaw ni bawkim ka rawk e naw heh pathoup kalawn awh hoeh.
7 So King Joash called together Jehoiada and the other priests and asked, “Why haven't you repaired the damage in the Temple? Don't use any more money you're given for yourselves, instead hand it over to others to repair the Temple.”
Hottelah siangpahrang Jehoash ni vaihma Jehoiada hoi vaihma alouknaw hah a kaw teh, ahnimouh koe, bangkongmaw bawkim ka rawk e hmuennaw hah na pathoup awh hoeh. Atu hoi teh, na uknae thung e tami koe e tangka lat awh hanh lawih. Bawkim ka rawk e pathoup nahanlah poe awh lawih telah a ti.
8 The priests agreed not to receive any more money from the people, and that they wouldn't carry out the repairs to the Temple themselves.
Vaihmanaw ni hai ayânaw koe tangka toung laipalah, bawkim ka rawk e hai pathoup hoeh hanelah a hnâbo awh.
9 Jehoiada the priest took a large wooden box, cut a hole in its lid, and placed it on the right side of the altar next to the entrance to the Lord's Temple. There the priests who guarded the doorway put all the money brought into the Lord's Temple into the collection box.
Hot patetlah, vaihma Jehoiada ni thingkongca a la teh, a khuem hah a paawng. BAWIPA im kâennaw aranglah thuengnae khoungroe teng vah a tâ teh a sin awh e tangkanaw pueng hah, takhang ka ring e vaihma ni paloupalou a ta pouh.
10 Whenever they saw there was a lot of money in the box, the king's secretary and the high priest would come, count the money brought into the Lord's Temple, and put it into bags.
Hahoi teh hettelah doeh. Thingkong dawk tangka apap toe tie a panue awh toteh, siangpahrang e cakathutkung hoi vaihma kacue ni, a ceikhai teh BAWIPA im vah tangka kaawm e pueng a touk awh.
11 Then they weighed out the money and gave it to the supervisors of the work on the Lord's Temple. They paid the ones doing the work—the carpenters, builders,
A touk awh e tangka teh thaw katawknaw, BAWIPA im kasakkungnaw, imsakkathoumnaw e kut phu, talung kadeinaw hoiyah talung katâcawtsaknaw e kut phu hoi,
12 masons, and stonecutters. They also bought the timber and blocks of cut stone needed for the repair of the Lord's Temple, and paid all the other costs of restoring the Temple.
Bawipa e Bawkim ka rawk e naw pathoup nahanlah thing hoi talung kuennae hoi im a rawknae koe, a pankinae hmuen pueng koe a hno awh.
13 However, the money collected for the Lord's Temple was not used for making silver basins, lamp trimmers, bowls, trumpets, or any items of gold or silver for the Lord's Temple.
Hatei BAWIPA imthungkhu tangka a sin awh hoi BAWIPA im hanlah, ngun, rahum, hoi hmai paduenae hoi Ailo ka dung hoi mongka hoi suihlaamnaw, ngunhlaamnaw hah hote tangka hoi sak hoeh.
14 It was used to pay the workers doing the repairs to the Lord's Temple.
Hatei, thaw katawkkungnaw ouk a poe awh teh BAWIPA e im pathoup nahanlah a hno awh.
15 No accounts were demanded from the men who received the money to pay the workers because they did everything honestly.
Thaw katawkkungnaw, poe hanlah tangka a kuem sak awh e naw hoi kuekluek parei pouh hoeh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, yuemkamculah a tawk awh.
16 The money from the guilt offerings and sin offerings was not collected for the Lord's Temple because it belonged to the priests.
Kâtapoe thuengnae tangka hoi yon thuengnae tangka teh BAWIPA im dawk kâen sak a hoeh. Hot teh vaihmanaw e ham doeh.
17 Around this time Hazael, king of Aram, went and attacked Gath, and captured it. Then he marched to attack Jerusalem.
Siria siangpahrang Hazael ni, Gath a tuk. Be a la hnukkhu Hazael teh Jerusalem ban hanlah a noe.
18 So King Joash of Judah took all the holy objects dedicated by his forefathers Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, the kings of Judah, along with all the items he had dedicated himself, and all the gold found in the treasuries of the Lord's Temple and the royal palace, and he sent everything to Hazael, king of Aram. So Hazael retreated from Jerusalem.
Judah siangpahrang Jehoash ni a na pa hoi Jehoshaphat hoi Jehoram hoi Ahaziah tinaw ni ouk a poe awh e kathounge hnonaw pueng, amamouh ni thoung sak awh e hnonaw hoi BAWIPA im kaawmnaw pueng hoi siangpahrang im vah kaawm, suinaw pueng a la awh teh, Siria siangpahrang Hazael a patawn awh. Hahoi teh Jerusalem a kamlang takhai awh.
19 The rest of what happened in Joash's reign and all that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Hot patetlah, Joash a tawksaknae naw thung dawk e kaawm rae naw, a sakyoe e naw pueng teh Judah siangpahrang setouknae cauk dawkvah koung thut lah ao nahoehmaw.
20 His officials plotted against him and murdered him at Beth Millo, on the road that goes down to Silla.
Hahoi a taminaw a thaw awh teh a kâcoun awh. Joash teh Silla lah ceinae lam, Millo im vah, a hem awh teh a thei awh.
21 The officials who attacked and killed him were Jozacar, son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, son of Shomer. They buried him with his forefathers in the City of David. His son Amaziah succeeded him as king.
A san Shimeath capa Jozakhar koevah, Devit khopui dawk a pakawp awh teh a capa Amaziah teh a yueng lah a bawi.
