< 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 teh siangpahrang a tawk nah kum 8 touh boung a pha. Jerusalem vah kum 31 touh siangpahrang a tawk. A manu min teh Jedidah, Bozkath kho e Adaiah e canu doeh.
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.
BAWIPA mithmu vah hnokahawi pou a sak. A na pa Devit ni a dawn e lamnaw pueng a dawn teh avoilah aranglah phen hoeh.
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,
Siangpahrang Josiah a bawi kum 18 nah hettelah ao. Meshullam capa, Azaliah capa cakathutkung Shaphan hah a patoun teh,
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:
vaihma kacue Hilkiah koevah cet nateh, longkha karingkungnaw ni taminaw koe a la awh teh BAWIPA e im dawk a thokhai e tangkanaw hah touk naseh.
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:
Hahoi, BAWIPA im dawk thaw katawknaw khenyawnkung koe poe nateh ahni ni a rawknae koe e pathoup nahanelah, BAWIPA im vah thaw katawknaw hoi,
6 Unto the carpenters, and the builders, and the masons, and to buy timber and hewn stones to repair the house.
thingkong kasakkung, im kasakkung hoi im rawknae kapathoupkung naw ni, a rawknae pathoup nahane dawk thing hoi talung naw ran nahanelah poe naseh, telah BAWIPA im lah a patoun.
7 Nevertheless shall there be no reckoning made with them for the money that is delivered into their hand, because they deal faithfully.
Hateiteh tangka ka sin sak e naw ni touk hai touk awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, yuemkamculah a hno awh.
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.
Vaihma kacue Hilkiah ni cakathutkung Shaphan koevah, BAWIPA im dawk kâlawk cauk hah ka hmu telah atipouh. Hilkiah ni cauk teh Shaphan koe a poe teh ahni ni a touk.
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.
Hahoi, cakathutkung Shaphan ni siangpahrang koe a cei teh, siangpahrang koevah kamthang ka thokhai. Na taminaw ni im dawk e tangka a hmu e naw hah BAWIPA e im dawk thaw katawknaw a poe toe telah atipouh.
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.
Cakathutkung Shaphan ni, vaihma Hilkiah ni cauk na poe na a telah siangpahrang koe a dei pouh teh, Shaphan ni siangpahrang e hmalah a touk.
11 And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.
Hahoi, siangpahrang ni kâlawk cauk dawk e lawk a thai toteh angki hah a phi.
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,
Siangpahrang ni, vaihma Hilkiah, Shaphan capa Ahikam, Mikaiah capa Akbor, cakathutkung Shaphan hoi siangpahrang e a san Asaiah koevah,
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.
kai hoi maya hoi Judahnaw pueng hanelah, hete cauk dawk hmu e lah ao patetlah BAWIPA koe na het pouh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, sak awh hane hete mintoenaw ni a sak hoeh kecu dawk maimouh tak dawk BAWIPA lungkhueknae teh hoe a len telah a ti.
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.
Hahoi vaihma Hilkiah, Ahikam, Akabor, Shaphan hoi Asaiah a hnicu khenyawnkung Harhas capa Tikvah capa, Shallum napui profet Huldah koevah a cei awh teh a kâhno awh. (Ahni teh Jerusalem kho hnuklah ao)
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,
Napui ni ahnimouh koe Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei, kai koe kapatounkung koe,
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;
khenhaw! hete hmuen koehai thoseh, athung e kho kasaknaw koehai thoseh, Judah siangpahrang ni cauk dawk a touk e rawkphainae patetlah rawkphainae hah a pha sak han.
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.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, na ceitakhai awh teh cathut alouke koe hmuitui a thueng awh teh, a kut hoi a sak awh e ni ka lung na khuek sak awh dawkvah, hete hmuen koevah ka lungkhueknae hmai hoe ka pataw lah ka kaman sak vaiteh roum mahoeh toe.
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;
Hatei kai koe hei hane a patoun e naw Judah siangpahrang koevah BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Na thai e lawk kong dawk,
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.
hete hmuen hoi athung kaawm e taminaw heh ka rawk e hoi thoebo e lah ao awh han telah ka dei e hah na thai toe. Na lung a nem teh BAWIPA hmalah kârahoum laihoi na angki na phi teh ka hmalah na ka dawkvah, kai ni hai na lawk ka thai telah, BAWIPA ni a ti.
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.
Hottelah, khenhaw! na mintoenaw koe na cei vaiteh na tangkom dawk karoumcalah na cei han. Hete hmuen koe rawknae kâhmo hane naw teh na mit ni koung hmawt mahoeh ati telah na dei pouh awh han telah atipouh. Hottelah kamthang teh siangpahrang koevah a dei pouh awh.
