< 2 Chronicles 34 >

1 Josiah [is] a son of eight years in his reigning, and he has reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem,
Josiah teh siangpahrang a tawk navah, kum 8 touh a pha teh, Jerusalem vah kum 31 touh a bawi.
2 and he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, and walks in the ways of his father David, and has not turned aside [to] the right or left.
Hote siangpahrang teh BAWIPA hmaitung hawinae hah a sak teh, avoilah aranglah phen laipalah a na min Devit e lamthung a dawn.
3 And in the eighth year of his reign (and he [is] yet a youth), he has begun to seek for the God of his father David, and in the twelfth year he has begun to cleanse Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the Asherim, and the carved images, and the molten images.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, a bawi nah kum 8 touh a pha teh, camo lah ao raei, a na min Devit e Cathut hah tawngnae a kamtawng. Hahoi, a bawinae kum 12 touh a pha navah, Judah ram hoi Jerusalem e hmuenrasangnaw hoi thingmeikaphawk hoi sakhlawn e meikaphawknaw hoi thukhlawn e meikaphawknaw hah koung a takhoe.
4 And they break down the altars of the Ba‘alim before him, and he has cut down the images that [are] on high above them, and the Asherim, and the carved images, and the molten images, he has broken and beaten small, and strews [them] on the surface of the graves of those sacrificing to them,
Baal thuengnae khoungroenaw hah a mithmu vah a raphoe teh, khoungroe van pâhung e meikaphawknaw hah a tâtueng teh, thingmeikaphawknaw hah vitkatip lah a phawm teh, hot koe thuengnae ouk kasaknaw e phuen dawk a rabawk.
5 and he has burned the bones of the priests on their altars, and cleanses Judah and Jerusalem,
Vaihmahu hru hah ahnimae thuengnae khoungroe van hmai a sawi teh, Judah ram hoi Jerusalem hah a thoung sak.
6 and in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even to Naphtali, with their tools, all around.
Hot patetvanlah, Manasseh, Ephraim, Simeon, Naphtali kho totouh a sak.
7 And he breaks down the altars and the Asherim, and he has beaten down the carved images very small, and he has cut down all the images in all the land of Israel, and turns back to Jerusalem.
Thuengnae khoungroenaw hah a raphoe teh, thingmeikaphawknaw hoi sakhlawn e meikaphawknaw hah koung a phawm. Isarel ram e meikaphawk pueng koung a tâtueng teh Jerusalem lah a ban.
8 And in the eighteenth year of his reign, to purify the land and the house, he has sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah head of the city, and Joah son of Johaz the remembrancer, to strengthen the house of his God YHWH.
Hahoi a bawinae kum 18 navah, a ram hoi bawkim a thoung sak nah kum vah, Azaliah capa Shaphan, kho ukkung Maaseiah, Jehoahaz capa ca kathutkung Joab hah BAWIPA Cathut im pathoup hanelah a patoun awh.
9 And they come to Hilkiah the high priest, and they give the money that is brought into the house of God, that the Levites, keeping the threshold, have gathered from the hand of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and from all the remnant of Israel, and from all Judah, and Benjamin, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
Vaihma kacue Hilkiah koe a pha awh toteh, longkha karingkung Levih taminaw ni, Manasseh, Ephraim kaawm rae Isarelnaw pueng, Judah, Benjaminnaw pueng hoi, Jerusalem vah a bankhai awh e tangka a pâtung awh e heh Cathut im vah a thokhai awh teh, ahnimouh koe a poe awh.
10 and they give [it] into the hand of the workmen, those appointed over the house of YHWH, and they give it [to] the workmen who are working in the house of YHWH, to repair and to strengthen the house;
Hottelah BAWIPA im dawk thaw katawkkungnaw kut dawk palang a poe awh teh, BAWIPA im dawk thawtawkkungnaw hoi im kapathoupkung, hoi im kasakkungnaw hah a poe awh.
11 and they give [it] to craftsmen and to builders to buy hewn stones, and wood for couplings and for beams [for] the houses that the kings of Judah had destroyed.
Judah siangpahrangnaw ni a raphoe awh e im pathoup nahanelah, talung dêi e hoi pangkheknaw, patung, paloung, thing ran nahane hoi, kutsakkathoumnaw hoi im kasakkungnaw hah a poe awh.
12 And the men are working faithfully in the business, and over them are appointed Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathite, to overlook; and of the Levites, everyone understanding about instruments of song,
Taminaw ni thaw hah yuemkamcu lah a tawk awh. Khenyawnkungnaw teh Merari capanaw thung dawk e Levih tami Jahath hoi Obadiah hoi, Kohath capanaw thung dawk e Zekhariah hoi Meshullam hoi, Levih tami alouke tumkhawng katumthainaw hah doeh.
13 and over the burden-bearers, and overseers of everyone doing work for every service; and of the Levites [are] scribes, and officers, and gatekeepers.
Hnokari kaphawtnaw khenyawnkung lahai ao teh, thaw katawkkungnaw ni tawk hane thaw kareikung lahai ao awh. Levihnaw tangawn teh cakathutkungnaw hoi longkha karingkung lah ao awh.
14 And in their bringing out the money that is brought into the house of YHWH, Hilkiah the priest has found the Scroll of the Law of YHWH by the hand of Moses,
BAWIPA im dawk a thokhai awh e tangka hah a rabawk awh toteh, vaihma Hilkiah ni Mosi hno lahoi poe e BAWIPA kâlawk cauk hah a hmu.
15 and Hilkiah answers and says to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found [the] Scroll of the Law in the house of YHWH”; and Hilkiah gives the scroll to Shaphan,
Hilkiah ni cakathutkung Shaphan koevah, BAWIPA im dawk kâlawk cauk ka hmu awh telah ati. Hahoi, Hilkiah ni cauk hah Shaphan a poe.
16 and Shaphan brings in the scroll to the king, and brings the king back word again, saying, “All that has been given into the hand of your servants they are doing,
Shaphan ni cauk hah siangpahrang koe a ceikhai teh, na sannaw ni sak hanelah pouk e pueng hah a sak awh.
17 and they pour out the money that is found in the house of YHWH, and give it into the hand of those appointed and into the hands of those doing the work.”
BAWIPA im dawk kaawm e tangka a rabawk awh toteh, kahrawikung hoi khenyawnkungnaw hah a poe awh telah lawk a thai sak.
18 And Shaphan the scribe declares [it] to the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has given a scroll to me”; and Shaphan reads in it before the king.
Hahoi cakathutkung Shaphan ni, vaihma Hilkiah ni cauk na poe telah siangpahrang koe a dei pou teh, Shaphan ni siangpahrang hmalah a touk.
19 And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the words of the Law, that he tears his garments,
Hahoi hettelah doeh. Siangpahrang ni kâlawk dawk e lawk a thai toteh, a hni hah a ravei.
20 and the king commands Hilkiah, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Abdon son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah, servant of the king, saying,
Siangpahrang ni Hilkiah, Shaphan capa Ahikam, Mikah capa Abdon, ca kathutkung Shaphan hoi siangpahrang e san Asaiah tinaw hah kâ a poe teh,
21 “Go, seek YHWH for me, and for him who is left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the scroll that is found, for great [is] the fury of YHWH that is poured on us, because that our fathers did not keep the word of YHWH to do according to all that is written on this scroll.”
cet awh nateh cauk na hmunae kong dawk kai hoi Isarel hoi Judah vah kaawm rae baw hanelah BAWIPA koe kâhet awh haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA puenghoi lungkhueknae teh maimouh lathueng awi lah ao toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hete cauk dawk, tarawi hanelah thut e pueng heh mintoenaw ni BAWIPA e lawk tarawi awh hoeh toe telah ati.
22 And Hilkiah goes, and they of the king, to Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum son of Tikvath, son of Hasrah, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the Second [Quarter], and they speak to her thus.
Hottelah siangpahrang ni kâ a poe e naw hoi Hilkiah teh hnicu hrueknae khenyawnkung Hasrah capa Tokhath capa Shallum e yu profet napui Huldah koe a cei awh ( Ahni teh Jerusalem kho vah a o). Hateh hote kong hah a dei pouh awh.
23 And she says to them, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Say to the man who has sent you to me,
Ahnimouh ni Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Kai koe na ka patoun e koe dei pouh awh nateh,
24 Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am bringing in calamity on this place and on its inhabitants, all the execrations that are written on the scroll that they read before the king of Judah,
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, khenhaw! hete hmuen hoi a thung kaawmnaw koe thoenae ka tho sak han. Judah siangpahrang hmalah a touk awh e cauk thung vah kaawm e thoebonae pueng hoi,
25 because that they have forsaken Me, and make incense to other gods, so as to provoke Me with all the works of their hands, and My fury is poured out on this place, and it is not quenched.
amamae kut dawk hoi letlang ka lungkhuek sak nahanelah, hnam na thun takhai awh teh, alouke cathutnaw hanelah hmuitui a sawi awh kecu dawkvah, hete hmuen koe ka lungkhueknae hah awi lah ao vaiteh, roum sak lah awm mahoeh telah ati.
26 And to the king of Judah who is sending you to inquire of YHWH, thus you say to him, Thus said YHWH God of Israel, whose words you have heard:
Hateiteh, BAWIPA koe kâhei hanelah nangmouh na kapatounkung Judah siangpahrang koevah hettelah dei pouh awh. Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni hottelah a dei, hote na thai tangcoung e lawk dawk,
27 Because your heart [is] tender, and you are humbled before God in your hearing His words concerning this place and concerning its inhabitants, and are humbled before Me, and tear your garments, and weep before Me, indeed, I have also heard [you]—a declaration of YHWH.
hete hmuen hoi a thung kaawmnaw tarannae lawk hah na thai toteh, na lungthin a nem teh, Cathut hmalah na kârahnoum teh, ka hmalah na kârahnoumsak teh, na khohna hah na ravei teh, ka hmalah na ka dawkvah, kai ni hai na lawk hah ka thai toe telah BAWIPA ni ati.
28 Behold, I am gathering you to your fathers, and you have been gathered to your graves in peace, and your eyes do not look on all the calamity that I am bringing on this place and on its inhabitants”; and they bring the king back word.
Khenhaw! na mintoenaw koe na ceisak vaiteh, ahnimouh koe karoumcalah na cei vaiteh, het hmuen hoi a thung kaawmnaw koe ka tho sak hane thonae pueng hah teh, na mit ni hmawt mahoeh telah dei pouh awh, telah a dei pouh. Hahoi siangpahrang koe hote lawk teh ka thokhai awh.
29 And the king sends and gathers all the elderly of Judah and Jerusalem,
Hottelah siangpahrang ni tami a patoun teh Judah ram hoi Jerusalem e kacuenaw pueng hah a pâkhueng.
30 and the king goes up to the house of YHWH, and [to] every man of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, even all the people, from great even to small, and he reads in their ears all the words of the scroll of the covenant that is found in the house of YHWH.
Hahoi siangpahrang hoi Judahnaw pueng, Jerusalem taminaw pueng, vaihmanaw hoi, Levihnaw hoi, taminaw pueng, kathoung kalen pueng, BAWIPA im vah a cei awh. BAWIPA dawk a hmu awh e lawkkamnae lawk dawk e lawknaw pueng hah, a hnâthainae koe a touk awh.
31 And the king stands on his station, and makes the covenant before YHWH to walk after YHWH, and to keep His commands, and His testimonies, and His statutes, with all his heart and with all his soul, to do the words of the covenant that are written on this scroll.
Hahoi siangpahrang teh amae hmuen koe a kangdue teh, cauk dawk thut e lawkkamnaw hah a caksak teh a lungthin buemlah, muitha buemlah hoi BAWIPA tarawi hane hoi kâpoelawknaw hoi lawkpanuesaknae hoi a phunglawknaw tarawi hanelah BAWIPA koe lawkkamnae a sak.
32 And he presents everyone who is found in Jerusalem and Benjamin, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem do according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
Jerusalem hoi Benjaminnaw pueng teh hot patetlah o hanelah lawk a kam awh. Hahoi, Jerusalem khocanaw ni Cathut, a na mintoenaw e Cathut lawkkam boiboe lah a sak awh.
33 And Josiah turns aside all the abominations out of all the lands that the sons of Israel have, and causes everyone who is found in Israel to serve, to serve their God YHWH; all his days they did not turn aside from after YHWH, God of their fathers.
Josiah ni Isarel ram dawk a kâen sak e thung dawk panuettho e hno pueng teh, koung a tâkhawng awh. Isarel ram dawk kaawm e pueng hah Cathut thaw a tawk sak. Hahoi a na mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut hanlah a hring nah thung phen takhai awh hoeh toe.
