< 1 Chronicles 22 >

1 And David said, This is the house of the Lord the [true] God, and this is the altar for the burnt-offering for Israel.
David loh, “He he BOEIPA Pathen im neh he tah Israel ham hmueihhlutnah hmueihtuk saeh,” a ti.
2 And David ordered to gather together the strangers that were in the land of Israel: and he appointed [them] to be masons to hew cut stones to build the house of God.
Te dongah David loh Israel khohmuen kah yinlai te calui ham a thui tih Pathen im sak vaengkah lungrhaih lung aka phaek aka dae la a khueh.
3 And iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joinings, did David prepare; and copper in abundance, [which] could not be weighed;
Vongka thohkhaih thohkhaih kah thicung ham neh hnarhui ham David loh a sikim sak dongah thi khaw puh mai tih rhohum khaw a puh coeng dongah a khiing tae lek pawh.
4 Also cedar-trees [which] could not be counted; for the Zidonians and the Tyrians had brought cedar-trees in abundance to David.
Lamphai thing khaw a pum tae lek pawt hil Sidoni neh Tyre lamkah a pawk pah. Lamphai thing he David ham tah thawt mai.
5 And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built [in honor] of the Lord must be exceedingly great, for fame and for glory throughout all the countries: I will therefore make preparation for it. So David made abundant preparation before his death.
David loh, “Ka capa Solomon he camoe tih mongkawt pueng. BOEIPA ham im a sak he khaw a ming a sang neh pantai saeh. Diklai boeih lakli ah boeimang saeh. Anih ham he ka sikim pawn eh,” a ti. Te dongah David he a duek hlan ah a cungkuem la sikim coeng.
6 And he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for the Lord the God of Israel.
Te phoeiah a capa Solomon te a khue tih Israel Pathen BOEIPA im sak hamla anih te a uen.
7 And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build a house unto the name of the Lord my God;
Te vaengah David loh a capa Solomon te, “Ka capa aw, kai he ka thinko ah tah ka Pathen BOEIPA ming la im sak ham om.
8 But there came concerning me the word of the Lord, saying, Blood in abundance hast thou shed, and great wars hast thou made: thou shalt not build a house unto my name, because much blood hast thou shed upon the earth before me.
Tedae BOEIPA ol te kai taengla ha pawk tih, ‘Thii khaw muep na long sak, caemtloek khaw muep na saii, ka mikhmuh ah diklai la thii muep na long sak dongah ka ming ham he im na sa mahpawh.
9 Behold, a son will be born to thee, he it is who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for Solomon [[The Peaceful]] shall be his name, and peace and quietness will I bestow on Israel in his days.
Na taengah capa na sak coeng te ta. Anih tah hlang mong la om vetih anih te a kaepvai kah a thunkha cungkuem lamloh ka duem sak ni. Solomon ngawn tah a ming khaw om vetih anih tue vaengah tah Israel te rhoepnah neh rhalmongnah ka paek ni.
10 He it is who shall build a house unto my name; and he shall be unto me as a son, and I will be unto him as a father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.
Anih loh ka ming ham he im a sak vetih anih te kamah taengah capa la om ni. Kai khaw a taengah a napa la ka om ni. A ram kah ngolkhoel khaw Israel soah kumhal duela ka cikngae sak ni,’ a ti.
11 Now, my son, may the Lord be with thee, that thou mayest prosper, and build the house of the Lord thy God, as he hath spoken concerning thee.
Ka capa aw na taengah BOEIPA om saeh lamtah n'thaihtak sak saeh. BOEIPA na Pathen im te na taengkah a thui bangla sa.
12 Only may the Lord give thee intelligence and understanding, and give thee charge over Israel, so that thou mayest observe the law of the Lord thy God.
Israel soah nang n'uen vaengah he na Pathen BOEIPA kah olkhueng te ngaithuen hamla BOEIPA loh nang taengah lungmingnah neh yakmingnah m'pae bal saeh.
13 Then wilt thou prosper, if thou observe to practise the statutes and the ordinances which the Lord commanded Moses concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; be not afraid, nor be thou dismayed.
BOEIPA loh Israel ham Moses a uen vanbangla oltlueh neh laitloeknah te vai hamla na ngaithuen atah na thaihtak ni. Te dongah thaahuel lamtah namning sak, rhih boeh, rhihyawp boeh.
14 And, behold, during my affliction have I prepared for the house of the Lord one hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand times thousand talents of silver; and of copper and iron [as much as] cannot be weighed; for in [such] abundance was it: and wood and stone have I prepared; and thou must add thereto.
Kamah kah phacipphabaem nen ni BOEIPA im hamla a soepsoei coeng he. Sui he talent thawng yakhat, cak he talent thawng thawng khat, rhohum khaw, thi khaw muep lo coeng tih a khiing tae lek moenih. Thing khaw, lungto khaw ka tawn coeng dae tomthap thil nawn.
15 Moreover there are with thee in abundance workmen, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of skilful men for every kind of work.
Namah taengah bitat aka saii khaw, lungto aka dae neh kutthai khaw, thing thai khaw, bitat cungkuem dongah boeih aka cueih khaw a cungkuem la om coeng.
16 The gold, the silver, and the copper, and the iron cannot be numbered: arise, [therefore, ] and be doing, and may the Lord be with thee.
Sui neh, cak neh, rhohum neh, thi neh, a tarhing naa voel moenih. Thoo lamtah saii laeh. Na taengah BOEIPA om saeh,” a ti nah.
17 And David gave a charge to all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying, ]
Te phoeiah David loh Israel mangpa boeih te khaw a capa Solomon te bom hamla a uen.
18 Behold the Lord your God is with you; and he hath given you rest on every side; for he hath given up into my hand the inhabitants of the land, and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people.
“Nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA he nangmih taengah a om moenih a? Khohmuen khosa rhoek te ka kut dongah m'paek tih kaepvai ah khaw nangmih te n'duem sak. Te dongah khohmuen he BOEIPA mikhmuh neh a pilnam mikhmuh ah khoem uh coeng.
19 Now direct your heart and your soul to seek the Lord your God; and arise, and build ye the sanctuary of the Lord the [true] God, [in order] to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built unto the name of the Lord.
Nangmih kah Pathen BOEIPA te toem hamla na thinko neh na hinglu te pae uh laeh. Thoo uh lamtah Pathen BOEIPA kah rhokso te sa uh laeh. BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng neh Pathen kah hmuencim hnopai te BOEIPA ming ham a sak im khuila khuen ham om,” a ti nah.
