< 2 Kings 24 >

1 During the reign of Jehoiakim, Nebuchadnezzar, kind of Babylon, invaded the country and Jehoiakim submitted to him. But after three years Jehoiakim rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar.
Anih tue vaengah te Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar loh a muk. Te dongah Jehoiakim tah sal la kum thum om coeng dae mael tih Nebukhadnezzar te a tloelh.
2 Then the Lord sent bands of raiders against Judah to destroy them. They came from Babylonia, Aram, Moab, and Ammon, just as the Lord had said through his servants the prophets.
BOEIPA loh anih taengla Khalden caem neh Aram caem khaw, Moab caem rhoek neh Ammon koca kah caem khaw a tuieh pah. BOEIPA ol bangla anih milh sak ham amih te Judah la a tueih. Te a sal tonghma rhoek kut ah a thui coeng.
3 The Lord spoke against Judah to banish them from his presence because of all the sins that Manasseh had committed, and the innocent people he had killed,
Manasseh kah tholhnah cungkuem a saii dongah BOEIPA ol bangla a mikhmuh lamloh khoe ham Judah taengah rhep thoeng coeng.
4 filling Jerusalem with their blood. The Lord was not willing to forgive this.
Ommongsitoe thii khaw a long sak tih Jerusalem te ommongsitoe thii loh a li. Te dongah BOEIPA loh khodawkngai ham huem pawh.
5 The rest of what happened in Jehoiakim's reign, and all he did, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Jehoiakim kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
6 Jehoiakim died, and his son Jehoiachin succeeded him as king.
Jehoiakim te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah a capa Jehoiakhin te anih yueng la manghai.
7 The king of Egypt didn't leave his country again for the king of Babylon had taken all the territory that used to belong to him, from the Wadi of Egypt all the way to the Euphrates River.
Te vaengah Egypt manghai taengah aka om boeih te Egypt soklong lamloh Perath tuiva hil te Babylon manghai loh a loh pah coeng dongah Egypt manghai loh a khohmuen lamkah mop hamla koep khoep voel pawh.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for three months. His mother was Nehushta, daughter of Elnathan. She came from Jerusalem.
Jehoiakhin he kum hlai rhet a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah hla thum manghai. A manu ming tah Jerusalem lamkah Elnathan canu Nehushta ni.
9 Jehoiachin did what was evil in the Lord's sight, just as his father had done.
A napa rhoek kah a saii bang boeih la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii bal.
10 At that time the officers of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon attacked Jerusalem and besieged it.
Te vaeng tue ah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar kah sal rhoek te Jerusalem la cet, cet uh tih khopuei te vongup ah a om sak.
11 Then Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon came himself while his officers were besieging the city.
Te dongah khopuei la Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar a pawk vaengah tah a sal rhoek loh khopuei te ana dum uh coeng.
12 Jehoiachin, king of Israel, surrendered to the king of Babylon, along with his mother, his officers, his commanders, and his officials. It was in the eighth year of his reign that Nebuchadnezzar captured Jehoiachin.
Judah manghai Jehoiakhin loh a manu khaw, a sal rhoek khaw, a mangpa rhoek khaw, a imkhoem rhoek khaw Babylon manghai taengla a kun puei. Te dongah anih te a manghai nah kum rhet vaengah Babylon manghai loh a khuen.
13 Nebuchadnezzar took all the treasures from the Lord's Temple and the royal palace, and he cut up all the gold items that Solomon, king of Israel, had made for the Lord's Temple, as the Lord had said would happen.
Te lamlong tah BOEIPA im kah thakvoh neh manghai im kah thakvoh khaw boeih a phueih pah. BOEIPA kah a thui bangla BOEIPA bawkim ham Israel manghai Solomon loh a saii sui hnopai cungkuem te khaw a khuen.
14 He deported all of Jerusalem, all the commanders and experienced soldiers, all the craftsmen and metalworkers, a total of ten thousand prisoners. Only the very poor people of the land were left.
Jerusalem boeih neh mangpa boeih te khaw a poelyoe tih tatthai hlangrhalh rhoek thawng rha boeih a poelyoe. Khohmuen pilnam kah khodaeng bueng phoeiah tah kutthai neh thidae khaw boeih paih pawh.
15 He took Jehoiachin away into exile to Babylon, as well as the king's mother and the king's wives and his officials and the leading men of the land, he deported them all from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Te vaengah Jehoiakhin te khaw, manghai manu khaw, manghai yuu rhoek khaw, a imkhoem rhoek neh khohmuen kah tutal hlang ang rhoek khaw, Babylon la a poelyoe tih Jerusalem lamloh Babylon ah vangsawn la a khuen.
16 The king of Babylon also deported to Babylon all seven thousand fighting men and one thousand craftsmen and metalworkers, who were all strong and ready for battle.
Te vaengah tatthai hlang boeih thawng rhih, kutthai neh thidae thawng khat, caemtloek aka noeng hlangrhalh boeih khaw Babylon manghai loh Babylon ah vangsawn la a khuen.
17 The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin's uncle, king instead of him, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
Babylon manghai loh Jehoiakhin yueng la a napanoe Mattaniah a manghai sak tih a ming te Zedekiah la a hoi pah.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eleven years. His mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah She came from Libnah.
Zedekiah he kum kul kum khat a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai khat manghai. A manu ming Hamutal tah Libnah lamkah Jeremiah canu Hamutal ni.
19 He did evil in the Lord's sight, just as Jehoiakim had done.
Anih khaw Jehoiakim kah a saii bang boeih la BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.
20 All this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, because of the Lord's anger, until he eventually banished them from his presence. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Amih te a mikhmuh lamloh a voeih hil BOEIPA kah thintoek he Jerusalem taeng neh Judah taengah om pueng. Tedae Zedekiah loh Babylon manghai te a tloelh.
