Kings IV 18
1 And it came to pass in the third year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel [that] Ezekias son of Achaz king of Juda began to reign.
Israel gam’ah Hoshea leng chankal kum thum alhin in, Ahaz chapa Hezekiah in Judah gam’ah lengvai ahin hom pan’in ahi.
2 Five and twenty years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Abu, daughter of Zacharias.
Ama leng ahung chan chun akum somni le nga alhingtan ahi, chuleh Jerusalem’ah kum smni le ko lengvai anahom’in ahi. Anuchu Abijah, Zechariah chanu ahi.
3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David did.
Amahin apu David bangin Pathen mitmun Pathen deilam jeng ana bollin ahi.
4 He removed the high places, and broke in pieces the pillars, and utterly destroyed the groves, and the brazen serpent which Moses made: because until those days the children of Israel burnt incense to it: and he called it Neesthan.
Aman Pathen neilouho doiphung ana sumangin doikhom jouse jong avobong sohkeijin, Asherah doikhum hojong aphulhun, Mose’n sum-eng gullim ana semjong chu ana suchip in ahi, ajeh chu Israelten hiche gullim kisem komahi kilhaina asem uva gimnamtui jong ahal uva alhut nam jiu ahi. Hiche sum-eng gullim chu Nehushtan tin ana kihe in ahi.
5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel; and after him there was not any like him among the kings of Juda, nor among those that were before him.
Hezekiah in Pakai Israel Pathen chu ana tahsan’in ahi. Ama masang hihen anung hijongle, Judah gam lengho lah’a ama tobang koima ana umpon ahi.
6 And he clave to the Lord, he departed not from following him; and he kept his commandments, as many as he commanded Moses.
Aman Pakai chu imalam jouse in kitah tah in ana juiyin, chuleh aman Pathen’in Mose anapeh thupeh hochu lhingtah in ana juiyin ahi.
7 And the Lord was with him; and he was wise in all that he undertook: and he revolted from the king of the Assyrians, and served him not.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin ama chu ana umpi jing in, chuleh Hezekiah hi abolna atohna chan’ah alolhing in ahi. Amahin Assyria lengpa dounan kai pehding jong ana nompon ahi.
8 He struck the Philistines [even] to Gaza, and to the border of it, from the tower of the watchmen even to the strong city.
Aman Philistinte chu Gaza chanle agamsung’u khoneopen apat khopi lenpen Gaza le akimvel kho kulpi kikaikhum khopi geijin ana jouvin ahi.
9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of King Ezekias (this is the seventh year of Osee son of Ela king of Israel, ) [that] Salamanassar king of the Assyrians came up against Samaria, and besieged it.
Israel gam'a Hoshea lengpa vaihomkal kum sagi alhin in, Hezekiah lengvai hom kum alhin in, Assyria lengpa Shalmaneser chun Samaria khopi ahin um’in ahi.
10 And he took it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Ezekias, (this [is] the ninth year of Osee king of Israel, when Samaria was taken.)
Kum thum nungin, Israel lengpa Hoshea lengchan kal kum ko alhin chuleh Hezekiah lengchan kal kum gup alhin in, Samaria khopi chu pangjou talouvin alhutan ahi.
11 And the king of the Assyrians carried away the Samaritans to Assyria, and put them in Alae and in Abor, [by] the river Gozan, and [in] the mountains of the Medes;
Hichephat chun Assyria lengpan Israelte chu Assyria gam Halah mun’ah sohchang’in akoitan ahi. Hichehi Medes khopi sung Gozan munna Habon vadung pang ahi.
12 because they listened not to the voice of the Lord their God, and transgressed his covenant, [even] in all things that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded, and listened not [to them], nor did [them].
Ajeh chu amahon Pakai a Pathen’u thupeh ajuinom pouvin, chuti sangin Pakai toh akitepnao asukeh’un, Pakai lhacha Mose in danho le anit diuva athupeh ho ana nitnom pouvin ahi.
13 And in the fourteenth year of king Ezekias came up Sennacherim king of the Assyrians against the strong cities of Juda, and took them.
Hezekiah lengpa leng chankal kum som le li alhin in, Assyria lengpa Sennacherib ahungkon’in Judah khopi kulpi kigensa khopi hojouse chu ahin nokhum in, abonin alatan ahi.
14 And Ezekias king of Juda sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians to Lachis, saying, I have offended; depart from me: whatever you shall lay upon me, I will bear. And the king of Assyria laid upon Ezekias king of Juda [a tribute of] three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.
Hezekiah lengpan Lachish munna um Assyria lengpa kom’a hitihin thu athot’in, “Keiman kabol kheltai, gal bol na ngah a nakinungle kit poupouleh, ijat hijongleh nangin na-ngeh chan kai pejeng tange,” ati. Assyria lengpan kinopto thei lhonna dingin dangka ton somle khat chuleh sana ton khat angeh’in ahi.
15 And Ezekias gave all the silver that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house.
Hijat suhbulhit nading in, Hezekiah lengpan Pakai houin’a dangka kikoi jouse leh leng inpi’a sumle pai jouse jong achomkhom’in ahi.
16 At that time Ezekias cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple, and [from] the pillars which Ezekias king of Juda [had] overlaid with gold, and gave it to the king of the Assyrians.
Hezekiah lengpan Pakai houin kot tomna’a ananei sana hochu akhoh lhan chuleh kot khom ho chunga kiloi sana hojong chu akhoh lhan Assyria lengpa chu apetan ahi.
17 And the king of the Assyrians sent Tharthan and Raphis and Rapsakes from Lachis to king Ezekias with a strong force against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem, and stood by the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is by the way of the fuller's field.
Ahijing vang'in Assyria lengpan asepai lamkai lenpen patoh, galmunna lamkaipa ahin asepai lamkaiho pipui chunga apipuipa chutoh Lachish akonin, sepai tamtah toh Jerusalem’a Hezekiah lengpa toh kimaito dingin asollin ahi. Assyria mite hin sahlang twikulla twikilhutna pang chuleh pon kisopna mun na kithunglutna lamlen kom’a chun adingun ahi.
18 And they cried to Ezekias: and there came to him Heliakim the son of Chelcias the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder.
Amahon Hezekiah lengpa chu kimupi dingin akouvun ahileh amaho toh kimu toding anoija natong ho Hilkiah chapa Eliakim, leng inpia vaihompa, thutanna munna lekhasun pu Shebna chuleh lengte thusim chinpa Asaph chapa Joah hocheng chu ana sollin ahi.
19 And Rapsakes said to them, Say now to Ezekias, Thus says the king, the great king of the Assyrians, What [is] this confidence wherein you trust?
Hiche jouchun, Assyria lengpa noija lamkai pipuipa chun Hezekiah thuthot ana neiyin, “Hichehi Assyria leng lenpa amatah kamcheng ahi, ‘Koipen natahsan a, koipen nakisonpi hitia hi lung olmo lou hella naum ham?” ati.
20 You have said, (but [they are] mere words, ) [I have] counsel and strength for war. Now then in whom do you trust, that you have revolted from me?
“Nangin thu homkeova hi sepai galsat thepna le athahat na ho akhel thei dia natasah ham? Koipen chunga naki-ngaiya keima nei dou jeng ham?
21 See now, are you trusting for yourself on this broken staff of reed, [even] upon Egypt? whoever shall stay himself upon it, it shall even go into his hand, and pierce it: so [is] Pharao king of Egypt to all that trust on him.
Ole Egypt chunga nakisonpi ham? Egypt chunga nakingai ahileh hiche Egypt khu peng tenggol natahsa gih in atouchip’a nakhut asuhvang tobangbep hiding ahi. Egypt lengpa Pharaoh hi kingaina thei hilou hel ahi,” ati.
22 And whereas you have said to me, We trust on the Lord God: [is] not this he, whose high places and altars Ezekias has removed, and has said to Juda and Jerusalem, You shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
“Ahin nangin kakom’a, Keiho Pakai ka Pathen uva kingai kahi nati diu ahi, ahinla Amachu Hezekiah in noise tah’a anabol hilouham? Judah gam le Jerusalem mite Jerusalem maicham phungseh a bou Pathen houdia seipeh a, Pakai doiphung jouse le maicham ho sumang pa Hezekiah hilou ham?” ati.
23 And now, I pray you, make and agreement with my lord the king of the Assyrians, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you shall be able on your part to set riders upon them.
“Keima naseipeh uvinge! KaPakaipa Assyria lengpa hitoh kinoptona bol lhon’in, nangin mi naneijou dingleh sakol sangni na penge.
24 How then will you turn away the face of one petty governor, from among the least of my lord's servants? whereas you trust for yourself on Egypt for chariots and horsemen.
Hitobang sepai honlhomcha khat’a hi, kapupa sepaihon ahatmopen jeng jonghi nachou-ngam ding hinam? Egypt sakol kangtalai holeh kangtalai touthem hotoh kitho jongle chun i-nalo ding ham?
25 And now have we come up without the Lord against this place to destroy it? The Lord said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
Tua hi ipimong mong nagel ham, nagam kahin nokhum’u jong hi, Pakaiyin eihin sollu ahi nahet lou u-ham? Gamsung khu ganokhum’unlang gasumang’un tia, Pakai amatah chun eiseipeh lou uva nagel uham?” ati.
26 And Heliakim the son of Chelkias, and Somnas, and Joas, said to Rapsakes, Speak now to your servants in the Syrian language, for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jewish language: and why do you speak in the ears of the people that are on the wall?
Hichun Hilkiah chapa Eliakim, Shebna le Joah chun Syria gal lamkai pipuipa kom’achun, “Lungset tah in keiho kom’ah Aramaic paovin neiseipeh’un, hichu keihon jong phaten apao chu kahe nauve. Hebrew paovin neiseipeh hih un, ajeh chu pal chung’a mipi hohin jakha get unte,” atiuve.
27 And Rapsakes said to them, Has my master sent me to your master, and to you, to speak these words? [has he] not [sent me] to the men who sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own water together with you.
Ahinlah sepai lamkai pipui Sennacherib chun ahin donbut’in, “KaPakai pauvin hiche thuhi napupau leh nangho chengseh jah dinga eiseisah uva nagellu ham? Mijousen ajah ding hi aman adei ahi. Ajeh chu hiche khopi hi kalah tenguleh amaho jong nangho toh thohgim thadiu ahi. Genthei jeh'a gilkel behseh tengle a-eh anehdiu chuleh dangchah behseh teng le ajun’u adondiu ahi.
28 And Rapsakes stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jewish language, and spoke, and said, Hear the words of the great king of the Assyrians:
Hichun sepai lamkai pipuipa chun pal chunga um mipiho hetdingin Hebrew paovin asap in asap thon, Assyria leng lenpa thupeh hi ngaijun,
29 thus says the king, Let not Ezekias encourage you with words: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand.
“Lengpan aseichu hiche ahi, Hezekiah chu kilhep lhahsah hih un. Aman itinama jongleh keima thaneina-a konin nahuhdoh joupou vinte.
30 And let not Ezekias cause you to trust on the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly deliver us; this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians: listen not to Ezekias:
Aman nangho Pakai tahsan dingin kilhep lhahsah hihun, Pakaiyin eihuhdoh teidiu ahi, hiche tehohi Assyria lengpa khutna lutlou helding ahi atiu chu tahsan hih un.
31 for thus says the king of the Assyrians, Gain my favor, and come forth to me, and every man shall drink [of the wine] of his own vine, and every man shall eat of his own fig tree, and shall drink water out of his own cistern;
Hezekiah thusei tahsan hih un, Assyria lengpan nangho napehnom’u kitepna chu hichehi ahi. Keitoh chamna sem’un, khopi kelkot hi hong’unlang hung potdoh’un. Achutileh nanghon nalengpithei’u leh nathei chang’u nakinehdiu, chuleh na tuikul uva nakidondiu ahi.
32 until I come and remove you to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, and bread and vineyards, a land of olive oil, and honey, and you shall live and not die: and do not you listen to Ezekias, for he deceives you, saying, The Lord shall deliver you.
Chutengleh keiman nangho hiche tobang gamchom khatna kapohlut diu, changphat nale lengpithei phatna changlhah leh lengpithei phatna, olive thingle khoiju lonna munna kapuilut ding nahiuve. Thina sang’in hinkho kilhen joh un! Hezekiah in Pakaiyin eihuhdoh diu ahi atia nalhep lhah got’u chu tahsan hih un,
33 Have the Gods of the nations at all delivered each their own land out of the hand of the king of the Assyrians?
Koipen nam apathen’un Assyria lengpa khut’a ahuhdoh nahetkhah uvem?
34 Where is the god of Haemath, and of Arphad? where is the god of Seppharvaim, Ana, and Aba? for have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Hamath khopi le Arpad khopi teni pathen in ipi abolthei beh am? geldoh un, chuleh Sephervaim khopi, Hena khopi leh Ivvah khopi teho pathen ipi atohdoh beham? Koi pathen in kathahat na a kona Samariah ahuhdoh beham?
35 Who [is there] among all the gods of the countries, who have delivered their countries out of my hand, that the Lord should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
Itobang nammite Pathen in kathaneina akona amite ahuhdoh beh am? Achutile ipi pentah chun Pakaiyin Jerusalem hi ka khut akona ahhuhing jou dia nagelsah mong’u ahidem?
36 But [the men] were silent, and answered him not a word: for [there was] a commandment of the king, saying, You shall not answer him.
Ahinlah mipite chu Hezekiah in, “Thipbeh un donbut hih un,” tia thu apeh dungjuijun athipbeh un, koimacha apaopoh aumpou vin ahi.
37 And Heliakim the son of Chelcias, the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and Joas the son of Saphat the recorder came in to Ezekias, having tore their garments; and they reported to him the words of Rapsakes.
Hijou chun leng inpia vaihompa Hilkiah chapa Eliakim thutanna'a lekhasun Shebna chuleh thusimbu chingpa Asaph chapa Joah chu Hezekiah kom’ah acheuvin lungimtah in asangkhol abot-eh un, hiti chun lengpa kimupin acheuvin, Assyria sepai lamkai pipuipa thusei chu aseipeh tauvin ahi.
