< 2 Chronicles 12 >

1 And it comes to pass, at the establishing of the kingdom of Rehoboam, and at his strengthening himself, he has forsaken the Law of YHWH, and all Israel with him.
Rehoboam kah ram neh a thadueng he cikngae bangla om, amah neh Israel boeih long khaw BOEIPA kah olkhueng te a hnawt.
2 And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt has come up against Jerusalem—because they trespassed against YHWH—
Rehoboam manghai kah a kum nga dongah tah BOEIPA taengah boe a koek uh dongah Egypt manghai Shishak loh Jerusalem te a muk.
3 with one thousand and two hundred chariots, and with sixty thousand horsemen, and there is no number to the people who have come with him out of Egypt—Lubim, Sukkiim, and Cushim—
Te vaengah leng thawngkhat yahnih, marhang caem thawng sawmrhuk lo. Egypt, Lubim, Sukkiim neh Kushi lamloh anih taengla aka pawk he pilnam hlangmi naa moenih.
4 and he captures the cities of the bulwarks that [are] of Judah, and comes to Jerusalem.
Judah kah kasam khopuei rhoek te a loh tih Jerusalem la pawk.
5 And Shemaiah the prophet has come to Rehoboam and the heads of Judah who have been gathered to Jerusalem [to escape] from the presence of Shishak, and says to them, “Thus said YHWH: You have forsaken Me, and also, I have left you in the hand of Shishak”;
Te vaengah tonghma Shemaiah te Jerusalem kah Shishak maelhmai kongah aka tingtun Rehoboam neh Judah mangpa rhoek taengla pawk tih amih te, “Nangmih kah BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Kai nan hnawt uh coeng dongah ni kai loh nangmih te Shishak kut ah kam voeih,” a ti nah.
6 and the heads of Israel are humbled—and the king—and they say, “YHWH [is] righteous.”
Te daengah Israel mangpa rhoek neh manghai khaw kunyun tih, “BOEIPA tah dueng pai,” a ti uh.
7 And when YHWH sees that they have been humbled, a word of YHWH has been [sent] to Shemaiah, saying, “They have been humbled; I do not destroy them, and I have given to them as a little thing for an escape, and I do not pour out My fury in Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak;
Te dongah a kunyun uh te BOEIPA loh a hmuh vaengah BOEIPA ol Shemaiah taengla pawk tih, “A kunyun coeng dongah amih te ka phae mahpawh. Tedae amih te loeihnah ka paek pawn ni. Ka kosi Shishak kut lamloh Jerusalem ah bo mahpawh.
8 but they become servants to him, and they know My service, and the service of the kingdoms of the lands.”
Tedae anih taengah sal la a om uh daengah nikai kah thothuengnah neh diklai ram kah thothuengnah te a ming uh eh,” a ti nah.
9 And Shishak king of Egypt comes up against Jerusalem, and takes the treasures of the house of YHWH and the treasures of the house of the king—he has taken the whole—and he takes the shields of gold that Solomon had made;
Egypt manghai Shishak loh Jerusalem te a paan vaengah BOEIPA im thakvoh neh manghai im kah thakvoh te a loh. A cungkuem te a loh tih Solomon loh a saii sui photling khaw a khuen.
10 and King Rehoboam makes shields of bronze in their stead, and has given [them] a charge on the hand of the heads of the runners who are keeping the opening of the house of the king;
Te dongah te rhoek yueng la manghai Rehoboam loh rhohum photling a saii tih manghai im kah thohka aka tawt, imtawt mangpa kut ah a khueh.
11 and it comes to pass, from the time of the going in of the king to the house of YHWH, the runners have come in and lifted them up, and brought them back to the chamber of the runners.
Manghai te BOEIPA im la a caeh dingdoeng vaengah imtawt rhoek khaw cet uh tih photling te a bai uh. Te phoeiah imtawt kah tanhnaem la a thak uh.
12 And in his being humbled, the wrath of YHWH has turned back from him, so as not to destroy to completion; and also, there have been good things in Judah.
Amah a kunyun van dongah BOEIPA kah thintoek khaw anih lamloh mael tih a bawtnah hil phae pawh. Tedae Judah ah khaw ol then om pueng.
13 And King Rehoboam strengthens himself in Jerusalem and reigns; for Rehoboam [is] a son of forty-two years in his reigning, and he has reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that YHWH has chosen to put His Name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and the name of his mother [is] Naamah the Ammonitess,
Manghai Rehoboam tah Jerusalem ah cak tih sawmli kum khat a lo ca hil manghai. Rehoboam a manghai van neh Jerusalem khopuei ah kum hlai rhih manghai. Te tah Israel koca boeih lamloh amah ming pahoi khueh ham ni BOEIPA loh a coelh. Rehoboam manu ming tah Ammoni Naamah ni.
14 and he does evil, for he has not prepared his heart to seek YHWH.
Tedae BOEIPA te toem hamla a lungbuei a cikngae pawt dongah boethae a saii.
15 And the matters of Rehoboam, the first and the last, are they not written among the matters of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer, concerning genealogy? And the wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam [are for] all the days;
Rehoboam kah olka a kung neh a doong te tonghma Shemaiah olka, khohmu Iddo kah a khuui dongah Rehoboam kah caemtloek neh Jeroboam kah a tue boeih neh a daek uh moenih a?
16 and Rehoboam lies with his fathers, and is buried in the City of David, and his son Abijah reigns in his stead.
Rehoboam khaw a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah David khopuei ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Abijah te anih yueng la manghai.
