2 Chronicles 15
1 And the Spirit of God has been on Azariah son of Oded,
Angraeng ih Muithla loe Oded capa Azariah nuiah angzoh;
2 and he goes out before Asa and says to him, “Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; YHWH [is] with you—in your being with Him, and if you seek Him, He is found by you, and if you forsake Him, He forsakes you;
Azariah loe Asa siangpahrang tongh hanah caeh, anih khaeah, Asa siangpahrang, Judahnawk hoi Benjamin kaminawk boih, ka lok hae tahngai oh; Angraeng khaeah na oh o nahaeloe, Angraeng doeh nangcae khaeah om tih; anih to na pakrong o nahaeloe, na hnu o tih; toe anih to na pahnawt o nahaeloe, anih mah doeh na pahnawt o toeng tih.
3 and many days [are] to Israel without [the] true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law,
Atue paroeai thung Israel kaminawk loe Sithaw tangtang tawn o ai, patukkung qaima tawn o ai moe, daan doeh tawn ai ah khosak o.
4 and it turns back in its distress to YHWH, God of Israel, and they seek Him, and He is found by them,
Toe patangkhang o naah loe, Israel Angraeng Sithaw khaeah amlaem o let; anih to pakrong o naah nihcae mah hnuk o.
5 and in those times there is no peace for him who is going out, and for him who is coming in, for many troubles [are] on all the inhabitants of the lands,
To nathuem ah kholong caeh kaminawk hanah, monghaih roe om ai; prae thung boih ah poek anghmanghaih to oh.
6 and they have been beaten down, nation by nation, and city by city, for God has troubled them with every adversity;
Sithaw mah congca patangkhanghaih hoi raihaih to paek pongah, prae maeto hoi maeto, vangpui maeto hoi maeto misa angthawk o.
7 and you, be strong, and do not let your hands be feeble, for there is a reward for your work.”
Toe nangcae mah tha pathok oh, bantha zok o sak hmah; na sak o ih tok baktih toengah tangqum na hnu o tih, tiah a naa.
8 And at Asa’s hearing these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he has strengthened himself, and causes the abominations to pass away out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities that he has captured from the hill-country of Ephraim, and renews the altar of YHWH that [is] before the porch of YHWH,
Asa mah hae loknawk hoi tahmaa Oded mah thuih ih lok to thaih naah, tha ohsak moe, Judah prae, Benjamin prae hoi Ephraim mae nuiah lak ih vangpuinawk thung boih hoiah, panuet thok krangnawk to vah king; anih mah Angraeng im hmaa ah kaom, Angraeng ih hmaicam to pathoep let.
9 and gathers all Judah and Benjamin, and the sojourners with them out of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and out of Simeon—for they have defected to him from Israel in abundance, in their seeing that his God YHWH [is] with him.
To pacoengah Judah kaminawk, Benjamin kaminawk, Ephraim kaminawk, Manaseh kaminawk hoi Simeon kaminawk to nawnto amkhuengsak boih; Asa khaeah Angraeng Sithaw oh, tiah Israel kaminawk boih mah panoek o naah, anih khaeah angzoh o.
10 And they are gathered to Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa,
Asa siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hatlaipangato haih, khrah thumto naah, Jerusalem vangpui ah amkhueng o.
11 and sacrifice to YHWH on that day from the spoil they have brought in—seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep,
Misa khae hoi lak o ih maitaw cumvai sarihto hoi tuu sang sarihto Angraeng khaeah angbawnhaih ah paek o.
12 and they enter into a covenant to seek YHWH, God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul,
Angmacae poekhaih palungthin boih hoiah ampanawk ih Angraeng Sithaw to pakrong hanah lokmaihaih thungah akun o;
13 and everyone who does not seek for YHWH, God of Israel, is put to death, from small to great, from man to woman.
mi kawbaktih doeh Israel Angraeng Sithaw pakrong ai kami loe, kathoeng kalen tih ai, nongpa nongpata tih ai, paduek han oh tiah,
14 And they swear to YHWH with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with horns,
Angraeng khaeah tha hoi hanghaih, mongkah ueng moe, tuu taki bohhaih hoiah lokkamhaih a sak o.
15 and all Judah rejoices concerning the oath, for they have sworn with all their heart, and they have sought Him with all their goodwill, and He is found by them, and YHWH gives rest to them all around.
Nihcae loe palungthin boih hoi lokkam o pongah, Judah kaminawk boih anghoe o; koehhaih palungthin hoiah Angraeng to pakrong o pongah, Anih to hnuk o; Angraeng mah nihcae hanah ahmuen kruek hoi monghaih to paek.
16 And also Maachah, mother of Asa the king—he has removed her from [being] mistress, in that she has made for an Asherah a horrible thing, and Asa cuts down her horrible thing, and beats [it] small, and burns [it] by the Brook of Kidron:
Siangpahrang Asa ih amsae nongpata Makaah mah Asherah thingkung tlim ah panuet thok krang to sak pongah, siangpahrang nongpata ah angdoethaih ahmuen hoiah takhoe ving; Asa mah krang to pakhoih pae boih, khok hoiah atit pae moe, Kidron ah hmai hoiah a thlaek.
17 yet the high places have not been removed from Israel; only, the heart of Asa has been perfect all his days.
Toe Israel prae thung hoiah hmuensangnawk to takhoe boih ai, toe Asa loe a hing thung Angraeng khaeah poekhaih to paek.
18 And he brings in the sanctified things of his father, and his own sanctified things, to the house of God: silver, and gold, and vessels.
Angmah hoi ampa mah paek ih sui, sumkanglung hoi laom sabaenawk to Angraeng im thungah a sin boih.
19 And war has not been until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.
Asa singpahrang ah ohhaih saning quithum, pangato thung prae thungah misa angtukhaih om ai.
