< 2 Kings 22 >

1 Eight years old was Josiah when he became king, and thirty and one years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Yedidah, the daughter of 'Adayah of Bozkath.
Josiah hi leng ahungchan kum chun ama kum get bou anahi, chuleh aman Jerusalem’ah kum somthum le khat sung lengvai anahom’in ahi. Anuchu Jedidah ahin Bozkath kho a kona Adaiah chanu ahi.
2 And he did what is right in the eyes of the Lord, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right or to the left.
Amahin Pathen mitmu’n thilpha jing anabollin, apu David khonung chu anajuijin ahi. Amahin thildih bolna dinga hin ana nungchon pon ahi.
3 And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azalyahu, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the Lord, saying,
Ama vaihom kum somle get alhinin, Josiah lengpan Meshullam tupa Azaliah chapa Shaphan chu thutanna munna lekhasunpa chu Pakai houin’ah ana sollin, hitihin thu anapen ahi,
4 Go up to Chilkiyahu the high-priest, that he may collect up all the money which is brought into the house of the Lord, which the door-keepers have gathered from the people:
“Nangma thempulen Hilkiah koma gache inlang, kot ngah pan Pakai houin'a mipi akona adondoh’u sum hochu simtoh henlang,
5 And let them deliver it into the hand of those who overlook the workmen, that have been appointed as overseers of the house of the Lord; and let them give it to those who do the work who are in the house of the Lord, to repair the breaches of the house:
Houin semphatna dinga vaihom ho khutna pelut hen, chutileh amahon Pakai houin sahphatna a natong ho chu athaman u peh nan mangcha theiyun te,” ati.
6 Unto the carpenters, and the builders, and the masons, and to buy timber and hewn stones to repair the house.
Amahon thingthembol ho, insa ho chule songkhengthem ho goina’a amanchah theidiu ahi. Chujongleh Houin semphatna man dingin thing chuleh song kikhengsa ho chule adang houin semphatna dinga ngaichat umho chu chohnan mang’u hen,” ati.
7 Nevertheless shall there be no reckoning made with them for the money that is delivered into their hand, because they deal faithfully.
“Ahinla insahna dinga vaihom hochun akhut uva sum hunglut hochu ajat simtoh suhtoh le kholtoh angaipoi, ajeh chu amaho lungtheng cheh leh tahsan theidolcheh ahinauve,” ati.
8 And Chilkiyahu the high-priest said unto Shaphan the scribe, A book of the law have I found in the house of the Lord. And Chilkiyah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
Hilkiah thempu lenpa chun thutanna lekhasunpa kom’a chun, “Keiman Pakai houin sunga chun Dan buchu kamu dohtai,” ati. Hichun Hilkiah chun hiche lekhajol chu Shaphan kom’a apen aman jong asim’in ahi.
9 And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have taken out all the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of those who overlook the workmen, that have been appointed overseers of the house of the Lord.
Shaphan chu lengpa kom’a achen thilsoh ho chu alhut un, “Nanoija mopohna neiho chun Pakai houin na sum hunglut hochu houin’a natong hole toh lamkai ho khutna apelut tauve,” atiuvin.
10 And Shaphan the scribe also told the king, saying, A book hath Chilkiyahu the priest given me. And Shaphan read it before the king.
Shaphan chun lengpa chu aseipeh kit’in, “Hilkiah thempu pachun lekhajol khat eipe in ahi,” ati, hichun Shaphan in jong lengpa chu asim pehtan ahi.
11 And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.
Lengpa chun hiche Dan lekhabua kijih chu ajah phat chun, lungkham tah’in apon abot eh jengin ahi.
12 And the king commanded Chilkiyah the priest, and Achikam the son of Shaphan, and 'Achbor the son of Michayah, and Shaphan the scribe, and 'Assahyah a servant of the king's, saying,
Hiche jouchun aman, Hilkiah thempupa, Shaphan chapa Ahikam, Micaiah chapa Acbor, Shaphan thutanna'a lekhasunpa chuleh Asaiah lengpa thumop a pang, amaho koma chun hiche thupeh apetan ahi.
13 Go ye, inquire of the Lord in my behalf, and in behalf of the people, and in behalf of all Judah, concerning the words of this book that hath been found; for great is the wrath of the Lord that hath been kindled against us, because our fathers did not hearken unto the words of this book, to do in accordance with all that is prescribed concerning us.
“Nangho cheuvin lang keima leh Judah mipi ho jouse thalhengin Pakai kom’ah tao unlang, akimudoh lekahjol akijih thucheng ho chung chang hi gakhol toh tauvin. Ajeh chu ipu ipateu vin hiche lekhajol kijih thucheng ho dungjuijahi ana chonloujeh uvin, achung'uva Pakai lunghan na hi adeojah jing in ahi. Eihon itohtei diuva kisei i-toh diu thilho chu khatcha jong ihin tong pouvin ahi,” ati.
14 And Chilkiyahu the priest, and Achikam, and 'Achbor, and Shaphan, and 'Assahyah, went unto Chuldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah the son of Charchass, the keeper of the wardrobe; [now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the suburb; ] and they spoke unto her.
Hijeh chun Hilkiah thempupa, Ahikam, Achor, Shapahn leh Asaiah chu Jerusalem a chenna ding munthah lang achun Huldah themgaonu ga dongtoh dingin acheuvin ahi. Amanu hi Harhas chapa Tikvah chapa Shallum jinu, houin a vonchol vesuija pang ahi.
15 And she said unto them, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Say unto the man that hath sent you to me,
Amanu chun amaho kom’ah chun, “Israel Pakai Pathen chun hitin aseije, kileuvin lang nahin solpa kom’a chun hitin aseijun,” ati.
16 Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon its inhabitants, all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read;
“Hiche hi Pakai thusei ahi, Keiman hiche khopile amite chunga hi thohgimna kahin chuhsah ding ahi. Judah lengpan asimdoh hiche lekhajolla kijih ho chengsehi hung guilhung teiding ahi.
17 Because they have forsaken me, and have burnt incense unto other gods, in order to provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands: therefore is my wrath kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
Ajeh chu kamiten eipaidoh tauvin, Pathen neilou namdangte semthu pathen ho kom’ah kilhaina gantha akatdoh tauvin, athilbol hojouse jeh in keima eilunghan sahlheh tauvin ahi. Hiche mun douna kalunghan hi deojah jeng ding ahin hiche chu chen-mitjou hilou ding ahi,” ati.
18 But with respect to the king of Judah who sendeth you to inquire of the Lord, thus shall ye say to him, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Concerning the words which thou hast heard;
“Ahinlah Pakai holding’a nahin sol uvah Judah lengpa kom’achun cheuvinlang hitin seipehun, Hichehi Israel Pathen Pakaiyin nathujah thupeh chungchanga chun hitin aseije,
19 Because thy heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord, when thou heardest what I had spoken against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become an astonishment and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me: I also have heard it, saith the Lord.
Nangma nalungkham’in, nang le nang nakisunem lhehjingin, nangin hiche khopi le amite douna kasei hiche gamhi sapsetna aching ding chule ahomkeo hung hiding ahi, kitichu najah phat’in lungkham tah in napon nabottel jengin chuleh kisih tah in nakap jah jengin ahi. Hijehchun keiman tahbeh in nataona chu kajatai tin Pakaiyin aseije,” ati.
20 Therefore, behold, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered unto thy graves in peace; and thy eyes shall not look on all the evil which I am bringing over this place. And they brought the king word again.
“Hijeh chun keiman kateppeh hamsetna chu nangma nathi’a lungmong’a nakivui kahsen hinchuhsah taponge. Keiman hiche khopi chunga kachuhsah ding suhgimna chu nangin namutah louding ahi,” ati. Hiti chun amanu kona thupeh chu lengpa kom’ah ale pohlut peh tauvin ahi.
