< 2 Chronicles 20 >

1 And it came to pass after this, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them some of the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
Hathnukkhu, Moabnaw hoi Ammonnaw, hothloilah tami alouknaw hoi Jehoshaphat tuk hanelah a tho awh.
2 Then there came some that told Jehoshaphat, saying: 'There cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea from Aram; and, behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar' — the same is En-gedi.
Taminaw a tho teh Jehosaphat koevah, nang tuk hanelah tamihupui tuipui namran Siria lahoi a tho. Khenhaw! Hazezontamar vah ao awh, (hot teh Engedi doeh) telah atipouh awh.
3 And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek unto the LORD; and he proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
Jehoshaphat ni a taki teh BAWIPA tawng hanelah a kâpoe. Judah ram pueng dawk rawcahai hanelah a pathang.
4 And Judah gathered themselves together, to seek help of the LORD; even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD.
Hottelah Judahnaw ni BAWIPA kabawpnae tawng hanelah a kamkhueng awh teh, Judah kho tangkuem lahoi BAWIPA tawng hanelah a tho awh.
5 And Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD, before the new court;
Jehoshaphat teh BAWIPA e im thongma katha hmalah, Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem kamkhuengnaw e hmalah a kangdue teh,
6 and he said: 'O LORD, the God of our fathers, art not Thou alone God in heaven? and art not Thou ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? and in Thy hand is power and might, so that none is able to withstand Thee.
Oe mintoenaw e Cathut Jehovah, nang teh kalvan kaawm e Cathut nahoehmaw, miphun tangkuem e uknaeram pueng ka uk e nahoehmaw. Na kut dawk hnotithainae hoi bahu ao teh, apinihai khang thai hoeh.
7 Didst not Thou, O our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before Thy people Israel, and gavest it to the seed of Abraham Thy friend for ever?
Nang teh kaimae Cathut lah na o. Na tami Isarelnaw hete ram dawk a tho navah, hete ram dawk kaawm e alouke miphunnaw na takhoe teh, na hui Abraham e catounnaw koe hete ram teh, yungyoe e ram lah o hanelah na poe nahoehmaw.
8 And they dwelt therein, and have built Thee a sanctuary therein for Thy name, saying:
Athung vah kho a sak awh teh, athung vah nang hane hoi na min hanelah hmuen kathoung a sak awh.
9 If evil come upon us, the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house, and before Thee — for Thy name is in this house — and cry unto Thee in our affliction, and Thou wilt hear and save.
Kaimouh koevah hawihoehnae, tahloi, lawkcengnae, lacik hoi takang a tho navah, hete im hoi na hmalah ka kangdue awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nange na min teh hete im dawk ao. Ka temdeng navah nang koe ka hram awh vaiteh, nang ni na thai pouh vaiteh na rungngang han.
10 And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir, whom Thou wouldest not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned aside from them, and destroyed them not;
Khenhaw! Ammon, Moab hoi Seir mon dawk e taminaw, Izip ram dawk hoi a tâco awh navah, Isarelnaw ni tuk hanelah na pasoung hoeh niteh, a ban takhai e taminaw ni,
11 behold, they render unto us evil, to come to cast us out of Thy possession, which Thou hast given us to inherit.
coe hanelah na poe e ram thung hoi pâlei teh moipathung hanelah a noe awh e na thai pouh haw.
12 O our God, wilt Thou not execute judgment on them? for we have no might against this great multitude that cometh against us; neither know we what to do; but our eyes are upon Thee.'
Oe kaimae Cathut, ahnimouh koe lawk na ceng mahoeh maw. Kaimouh tuk hanelah ka tho e hete taminaw heh ka ngang thai awh mahoeh. Bangtelamaw ti han ka panuek awh hoeh. Nang dueng doeh na khet awh telah a ratoum.
13 And all Judah stood before the LORD, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
Judahnaw abuemlah camo, yu, canaw hoi BAWIPA hmalah a kangdue awh.
14 Then upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, the Levite, of the sons of Asaph, came the spirit of the LORD in the midst of the congregation;
Hat torei teh, tamimaya rahak kaawm e Jahziel koevah, BAWIPA e Muitha teh a tho. Ahni teh Zekhariah e capa doeh. Zekhariah teh Benaiah e capa doeh. Benaiah teh Jeiel e capa doeh. Jeiel teh Mattaniah e capa doeh. Mattaniah teh Levih miphun Asaph e catoun doeh.
15 and he said: 'Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat: thus saith the LORD unto you: Fear not ye, neither be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.
Ahni ni Judahnaw abuemlah, Jerusalem kaawm e abuemlah hoi siangpahrang Jehoshaphat nangmanaw ni thai awh haw, BAWIPA ni nangmouh koe telah lawk a dei, taket hanh awh. Na lungpout hanh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tarantuknae teh nangmae nahoeh, BAWIPA e doeh.
16 To-morrow go ye down against them; behold, they come up by the ascent of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the valley, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
Tangtho vah tuk awh. Khenhaw! Ziz kho dawk luennae lam dawk hoi a tho awh navah, Jeruel kahrawng teng, thingyei apoutnae koe na kâhmo awh han.
17 Ye shall not need to fight in this battle; set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem; fear not, nor be dismayed; to-morrow go out against them; for the LORD is with you.'
Hete taran teh nangmouh ni na tuk ngai mahoeh. Kacaklah kangdout awh. Nangmouh koe kaawm e BAWIPA e rungngangnae ma hah khen awh. Oe Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem e taminaw, taket hanh awh, na lungpout hanh awh. Tangtho vah tuk hanelah tho awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA teh nangmouh koe ao telah atipouh.
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the LORD, worshipping the LORD.
Hottelah Jehoshaphat teh minhmai talai dawk kâbet lah a tabo teh, Judahnaw abuemlah hoi Jerusalem e taminaw abuemlah BAWIPA e hmalah a tabo awh teh, BAWIPA a bawk awh.
19 And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites and of the children of the Korahites, stood up to praise the LORD, the God of Israel, with an exceeding loud voice.
Levih miphun Kohath catounnaw hoi Korah catounnaw teh kacaipounglah BAWIPA Cathut pholen hanelah a kangdue awh.
20 And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said: 'Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe His prophets, so shall ye prosper.'
Tangtho amom vah a thaw awh. Tekoa kahrawngum vah a cei awh. A cei laihoi Jehoshaphat a kangdue teh, Oe Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem e taminaw, ka lawk thai awh haw. Nangmae BAWIPA Cathut hah yuem awh haw, caksak lah na o awh han. Profetnaw yuem awh haw tânae na hmu awh han, telah atipouh.
21 And when he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed them that should sing unto the LORD, and praise in the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and say: 'Give thanks unto the LORD, for His mercy endureth for ever.'
Taminaw pueng lawk a thui hnukkhu, ransanaw hmalah a cei laihoi BAWIPA pholennae la hoi thoungnae la ka sak hanelah a pouk awh. BAWIPA pholen awh, bangkongtetpawiteh a lungmanae teh a yungyoe a kangning, telah sak awh atipouh.
22 And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set liers-in-wait against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, that were come against Judah; and they were smitten.
La saknae hoi pholennae a kamtawng navah, Judah taranlahoi ka tho e Ammon, Moab hoi Seir mon e taminaw BAWIPA ni a sung sak.
23 For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them; and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another.
Ammonnaw hoi Moabnaw ni Seir mon dawk kaawm e taminaw thei hane hoi raphoe hanelah a taran awh. Seir mon dawk e taminaw koung a raphoe hnukkhu, amamouh hoi amamanaw kâtuk hanelah bout a kamtawng awh.
24 And when Judah came to the watch-tower of the wilderness, they looked upon the multitude; and, behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and there were none that escaped.
Judahnaw kahrawngum ramvengim a pha awh navah, taminaw koelah a kangvawi awh teh, khenhaw! tamiro teh talai dawk petkâkahai, ka yawng e buet touh boehai awm hoeh.
25 And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches and dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away; and they were three days in taking the spoil, it was so much.
Hottelah Jehoshaphat hoi a taminaw ni hnopai a ceitakhai awh e la hanelah a cei awh. Ahnimouh koe e hnopai, khohna hoi talung aphu kaawm e moi a hmu awh. Phu thai hoeh totouh a la awh. Apap lawi a la awhnae koe hnin thum touh a ro awh.
26 And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Beracah; for there they blessed the LORD; therefore the name of that place was called The valley of Beracah, unto this day.
A hnin pali navah Berakah yawn dawk a kamkhueng awh. Hote hmuen koe BAWIPA a pholen awh. Hatdawkvah, atu totouh hote hmuen teh Berakah yawn telah ati awh.
27 Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go back to Jerusalem with joy; for the LORD had made them to rejoice over their enemies.
Hottelah tarannaw kong dawk BAWIPA ni lunghawinae a poe dawkvah, Jehoshaphat ni hma ahman teh, Jerusalem e taminaw hoi Judahnaw teh lunghawi laihoi Jerusalem khopui lah a ban awh.
28 And they came to Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and trumpets unto the house of the LORD.
Hahoi tamawi, ratoung hoi mongka tumkhawng laihoi Jerusalem BAWIPA im dawk a pha awh.
29 And a terror from God was on all the kingdoms of the countries, when they heard that the LORD fought against the enemies of Israel.
BAWIPA ni Isarel ka taran e naw a tuk tie a thai awh navah, uknaeram tangkuem kaawm e taminaw ni Cathut a taki awh.
30 So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet; for his God gave him rest round about.
Hottelah Jehoshaphat uknae teh karoumcalah ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, atengpam e taminaw koehoi BAWIPA ni roumnae a poe.
31 And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah; he was thirty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and five years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
Hottelah kum 35 navah, Jehoshaphat teh Judahnaw koe siangpahrang thaw tawknae a kamtawng teh Jerusalem vah kum 25 touh a bawi. A manu e min teh Silhi canu Azubah doeh.
32 And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and turned not aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of the LORD.
BAWIPA e hmaitung vah, hnokahawi a sak teh, a na pa Asa e lamthung phen laipalah a dawn.
33 Howbeit the high places were not taken away; neither as yet had the people set their hearts unto the God of their fathers.
Hatei hmuenrasangnaw a takhoe hoeh dawkvah, taminaw pueng ni mintoenaw e Cathut koe pouknae hrueng awh hoeh.
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the words of Jehu the son of Hanani, which is inserted in the book of the kings of Israel.
Khenhaw! Jehoshaphat e a tawksaknae pueng teh, kamtawngnae koehoi apout totouh, Hanani capa Jehu kong thutnae dawk thut lah ao. Hottelah Isarel siangpahrangnaw e cauk dawk pakhum lah ao.
35 And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with Ahaziah king of Israel; the same did very wickedly;
Hathnukkhu Judah siangpahrang Jehoshaphat teh, Isarel siangpahrang Ahaziah hoi a kambawng roi, ahni ni hawihoehnae ouk a sak.
36 and he joined him with himself to make ships to go to Tarshish; and they made the ships in Ezion-geber.
Eziongeber vah Tarsis lah cei nahane lawng cungtalah rei a sak roi.
37 Then Eliezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying: 'Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, the LORD hath made a breach in thy works.' And the ships were broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
Hatei, Moreshah tami Dodavah capa Eliezer ni Jehoshaphat koevah, Ahaziah hoi na kambawng roi dawkvah, BAWIPA ni sak han na noe e na raphoe pouh e doeh, telah atipouh. Hottelah lawng koung a raphoe pouh teh Tarsis lah cet thai hoe toe.
