2 Kings 17
1 Hoshea, son of Elah, became king of Israel, in the twelfth year of the reign of King Ahaz of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for nine years.
Judah siangpahrang Ahaz, a bawinae kum 12 navah, Elah capa, Hosi teh Isarelnaw koe Samaria vah siangpahrang lah ao teh kum 9 touh a uk.
2 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, but not in the same way the kings of Israel who were before him.
BAWIPA mithmu vah thoenae ouk a sak. Hatei a yon e Isarel siangpahrangnaw ma patetlah teh sak hoeh.
3 Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, came and attacked him, and Hoshea submitted to him and paid him tribute.
Assiria siangpahrang Shalmaneser ni a tuk teh, Hosi teh Salmaneser e san lah ao teh kum tangkuem tamuk a poe.
4 But then the king of Assyria discovered that Hoshea was being disloyal. Hoshea had sent messengers to So, king of Egypt, asking for help, and he also had stopped sending annual tribute to the king of Assyria as he had done previously. So the king of Assyria arrested Hoshea and put him in prison.
Hathnukkhu hoi kum tangkuem a poe e tamuk hah poe hoeh. Izip siangpahrang So koevah patounenaw a patoun teh, ahnimouh youk hanelah pouknae hah, Assiria siangpahrang ni a panue dawkvah, Hosi teh a man awh teh thawng pabo awh.
5 Then the king of Assyria invaded the whole country, and attacked Samaria, besieging it for three years.
Assiria siangpahrang Shalmaneser ni, Isarel ram a tuk teh Samaria khopui kum thum touh thung koung a kalup.
6 In the ninth year of the reign of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and deported the Israelites to Assyria. He settled them in Halah, in Gozan on the Habor River, and in the towns of the Medes.
Hosi a bawinae kum 9 navah, Assiria siangpahrang ni Samaria hah a la. Isarelnaw teh Assiria vah a ceikhai awh teh Halah ram hoi Gozan ram, Harbor palang teng Midiannaw e kho dawk ao sak awh.
7 All this happened because the people of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, the one who had led them out of Egypt, saving them from the power of Pharaoh, king of Egypt. They had worshiped other gods,
Hot patetlah a onae teh, Isarelnaw ni Izip siangpahrang Faro kut dawk hoi Izip ram hoi katâcawtkhaikung Jehovah Cathut koevah yonnae a sak awh teh alouke cathut hah alawkpui lah a pouk awh dawk doeh.
8 adopting the ways of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites, and the pagan practices introduced by the kings of Israel.
BAWIPA ni, Isarelnaw hmalah a pâlei pouh e miphunnaw e phunglawk hah, Isarel siangpahrang ni a tarawi dawkvah hote phunglam patetlah kho a sak awh dawk doeh.
9 Secretly the Israelites did things that were not right against the Lord their God. They built high places in all their towns, from watchtowers to fortified cities.
Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA Cathut koe thoenae hah, arulahoi meng a sak awh dawkvah a khonaw pueng dawk ramveng imrasang koehoi kamtawng teh rapan ka tawn e kho totouh hmuenrasang a sak awh.
10 They set up pagan stone pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree.
Mon karasang pueng hoi thingkung tâhlip vah talung a ung awh teh thing dawk meikaphawk hah a sak awh.
11 They offered sacrifices on all the high places, just like the nations the Lord drove out before them. They did evil things, angering the Lord.
Hahoi hmuenrasang pueng koe, BAWIPA ni a hmalah a pâlei e miphunnaw ni a sak awh e patetlah hmuitui hah hmai hoi a sawi awh teh, BAWIPA lungphuen sak hanelah thoenae a sak awh.
12 They worshiped idols, even though the Lord had told them, “You are not to do this.”
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni ahnimouh koe hete hno heh na sak awh mahoeh ati e meikaphawk thaw na tawk awh.
13 Yet the Lord had warned Israel and Judah repeatedly through all his prophets and seers, saying, “Leave your wicked ways and keep my commandments and instructions. Follow the whole law that I ordered your forefathers to obey, and gave to you through my servants the prophets.”
Hot um hoi hai BAWIPA ni na yonnae kamlang takhai awh. Na mintoenaw ka poe e kâpoelawknaw hoi phunglawknaw pueng ka san profet ka patoun e naw ni a dei awh patetlah a profetnaw hoi kahmawtkungnaw hno lahoi a panue sak awh.
14 But they refused listen, and they were as stubborn as their forefathers who did not trust the Lord their God.
Hatei, ngai pouh hoeh teh, a na mintoenaw ni, BAWIPA Cathut yuem ngai laipalah, a lunglen awh e patetlah a lungpata sak awh.
15 They gave up on his regulations and the covenant he had made with their forefathers, as well as the decrees he had given them. They followed pointless idols and they became pointless themselves, copying the nations around them that the Lord ordered them not to copy.
A phunglam hoi a na mintoenaw koe a lawkkam ahnimouh koe a panue sak e lawk hah, banglahai noutna awh hoeh teh cungkeihoehnaw a panki awh teh, banglahai yah tho kalawn hoeh. Ahnimouh kong dawk BAWIPA ni hot patetlah sak van awh hanh telah a dei tangcoung e hah, a teng kaawm e miphunnaw ni a sak awh e patetlah a kamtu awh.
16 They ignored all the commandments of the Lord their God, and they made themselves two metal idols of calves and an Asherah pole. They bowed down in worship to the sun, moon, and stars and served Baal.
BAWIPA Cathut e kâpoelawknaw pueng hah, a hnamthun takhai awh teh, maitoca meikaphawk kahni touh a sak awh. Kalvan e kaawmnaw pueng hah a bawk awh. Baal thaw a tawk awh.
17 They sacrificed their sons and daughters as pagan burnt offerings, and practiced fortune-telling and witchcraft. They gave themselves over to doing what was evil in the Lord's sight, making him angry.
A lungphuennae a kâan sak nahanelah, a canu a capanaw hah, hmai hoi thuengnae a sak awh. Camthoumnae hoi taân a sin awh teh, BAWIPA mithmu thoenae sak hanelah ka yo awh.
18 So the Lord was extremely angry with Israel, and he banished them from his presence. Only the tribe of Judah was left,
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA teh Isarelnaw koe a lungphuen poung teh a hmaitung hoi a takhoe awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Judah miphun hloilah kacawie awm hoeh toe.
19 but even Judah did not keep the commandments of the Lord their God, but followed the idolatry that Israel had introduced.
Judahnaw ni hai BAWIPA Cathut e kâpoelawknaw a tarawi awh hoeh teh Isarel phunglam hah a dawn awh.
20 The Lord gave up on all the descendants of Israel. He punished them and handed them over to their enemies, until he had banished them from his presence.
BAWIPA ni Isarel catounnaw hah a pahnawt teh a mithmu vah he kahmat lah a puen hoehroukrak a rek teh ahni katuknaw kut dawk a poe.
21 When the Lord ripped Israel away from the house of David, they made Jeroboam, son of Nebat, their king. Jeroboam led Israel away from the Lord and made them commit terrible sins.
Isarel teh Devit imthung dawk hoi a phen teh hahoi Nebat capa Jeroboam hah siangpahrang lah a la awh. Jeroboam ni Isarelnaw e BAWIPA lam a dawn e hah lam a phen sak teh kalenpounge yonnae hah a sak sak awh.
22 The Israelites continued to practice all the sins that Jeroboam committed. They did not stop doing them,
Isarel catounnaw ni Jeroboam ni a sak e yonnae hah a sak awh. Hote hnonaw pueng teh, BAWIPA ni a profetnaw hno lahoi a dei pouh tangcoung patetlah a hmuhoehnae hmuen koe he a takhoe hoehroukrak cettakhai hoeh toe.
23 so the Lord eventually expelled them from his presence, just as he had said he would through all his servants, the prophets. So the Israelites were deported from their land and taken to Assyria, where they are to this day.
Hahoi Isarelnaw teh, amamouh ram koehoi Assiria ram vah a hrawi teh atu totouh ao awh.
24 The king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Kuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim and settled them in the towns of Samaria instead of the Israelites. They took over ownership of Samaria and lived in its towns.
Assiria siangpahrang ni, Babilon Kuthah, Ivvah, Hamath, Sepharvaim, hoiyah khocanaw a thokhai teh, Samaria khopui dawkvah, Isarel catoun yueng lah a lawp sak. Hottelah hoi Samaria vah kho a sak awh, a khopui a lawp awh.
25 When they first started living there they did not worship the Lord, so he sent lions there among them, killing some of them.
Hote kho dawk ao pasuek nah, BAWIPA barilawa tawn awh hoeh. BAWIPA ni ahnimouh koe sendek a tha pouh teh tami tangawn koung a kei.
26 The king of Assyria was told, “The peoples that you brought and settled in the towns of Samaria they don't not know the rules of the God of the land. As a result, he has sent lions among them, which are killing them off because they don't know what the God of the land requires.”
Hahoi Assiria siangpahrang koevah na takhoe awh e miphun Samaria khopui na khawng sak e naw ni hete ram dawk e cathut bawknae nuencang panuek awh hoeh. Hatdawkvah, ahnimouh koe sendek a tha sin teh khenhaw! het ram cathut bawknae nuencang a panue awh hoeh kecu dawk koung a kei telah a dei awh.
27 The king of Assyria gave the order: “Send back one of the priests you deported from Samaria, and let him go back and live there and teach the rules of the God of the land.”
Assiria siangpahrang ni, haw e san lah a la e naw koehoi vaihma buet touh ban sak nateh Cathut bawknae nuencang pâtu naseh telah kâ a poe.
28 So one of the priests who had been deported from Samaria returned to live in Bethel, and taught them how to worship the Lord.
Hahoi Samaria ram hoi a ceikhai e naw thung dawk hoi vaihma buet touh hah, Bethel kho vah ao teh BAWIPA barilawa awh thai nahan a pâtu awh.
29 But the people of the different nations went on making their own gods in the towns where they had settled, and they placed them in the shrines of the high places that the people of Samaria had made.
Hatei miphun tangkuem ni, amamae cathut lengkaleng a sak awh, Samarianaw ni hmuenrasang a sak awh e hah, miphun tangkuem ni amamouh onae kho tangkuem vah a ta awh.
30 Those from Babylon made Sukkoth Benoth, those from Kuthah made Nergal, and those from Hamath made Ashima.
Babilonnaw ni Sukkothbenoth a sak awh teh Kuthahnaw ni, Nergal a sak awh. Hamathnaw ni Ashima a sak awh teh,
31 The Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites sacrificed their children as burnt offerings to their gods Adrammelech and Anammelech.
Avvitnaw ni Nibbaz hoi Tartak a sak awh. Hahoi Sepharvaim ni Sepharvaim e cathut Adrammelek hoi Anamalek vah a canaw hah hmai a sawi awh.
32 While they worshiped the Lord, they also appointed priests from all kinds of their own people to offer sacrifices for them in the shrines of the high places.
BAWIPA teh barilawa a tâ awh teh, amamouh thung dawk hoi hmuenrasang vaihma hah a sak awh teh ayânaw hanlah, thuengnae a sak pouh awh.
33 So even though they worshiped the Lord, they also worshiped their own gods following the practices of the nations they had come from.
BAWIPA teh a taki awh ngoun eiteh, a tâcotakhai awh e, amamae ram e phunglam, a cathut thaw hah ouk a tawk awh.
34 Even to this day they are still following their former practices. None of them truly worship the Lord or observe the regulations, requirements, laws, and commandments that the Lord gave to the descendants of Jacob, the one he named Israel.
Ha hoehnahlan e ouk a sak awh, e patetlah atu totouh a sak awh rah. BAWIPA teh taket awh hoeh. BAWIPA ni, Jakop catounnaw, Isarel telah a phung e naw koe,
35 For the Lord had made an agreement with the Israelites, ordering them, “Don't worship other gods or bow down to them; don't serve them or offer sacrifices to them.
Cathut alouke taket hanh awh. Ahnimouh teh bawk hanh awh, a thaw hai tawk pouh hanh awh. Ahnimouh koe thuengnae sak hanh awh.
36 You must worship only the Lord, who led you out of Egypt, helping you with his great power and strong arm. Only bow down to him; only offer sacrifices to him.
BAWIPA ni a lentoenae hnosakthainae hoi a dâw e kut hoi Izip ram hoi na ka hrawi e BAWIPA hah taket awh nateh bawk awh thuengnae poe awh.
37 Always pay attention to observe the regulations, requirements, laws, and commandments he gave you in writing, and don't worship other gods.
Phunglawk, kâlawk, kâpoelawk yungyoe na hringkhai awh hanelah, ama ni na thut pouh e doeh. Alouke cathutnaw hah taket han awh.
38 Don't forget the agreement I have made with you, and don't worship other gods.
Nangmouh koe ka kam e lawkkam hah na pahnim awh mahoeh. Cathut alouke hah na taket awh mahoeh.
39 You must worship only the Lord your God, and he will save you from all your enemies.”
BAWIPA Cathut na taki awh han, hahoi na tarannaw e kut dawk hoi na rungngang han telah a ti.
40 But they refused to listen, and continued their former idolatrous practices.
Hatei ahnimouh ni tarawi han ngai awh hoeh, yampa e a sak e patetlah pou a sak awh.
41 Even while these people from different nations were worshiping the Lord, they were actually worshiping their idols. Their children and grandchildren continue to do as their forefathers did to this day.
Hot patetlah, hete miphunnaw ni BAWIPA teh a taki awh. Hatei a sak awh e meikaphawk thaw hai a tawk awh. A catounnaw totouh, a na mintoenaw ni a sak awh e patetlah sahnin totouh pou a sak awh rah.
