< 2 Chronicles 13 >

1 In the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.
Siangpahrang Jeroboam a bawinae kum 18 navah, Abijah teh Judah ram dawk siangpahrang thaw a kamtawng.
2 He reigned three years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
Jerusalem kho dawk kum thum touh a bawi. A manu e min teh Mikhaiah, Gebeah tami Uriel e canu doeh. Hatnavah Abijah hoi Rehoboam teh a kâtuk roi.
3 Abijah joined battle with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men: and Jeroboam set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, who were mighty men of valor.
Abijah ni tarankahawi ni teh tarantuk kathoum e 400,000 touh a rawi teh a tuk. Jeroboam ni hai tarankahawi ni teh taran katukthai tami 800,000 touh a rawi teh a tuk van.
4 Abijah stood up on Mount Zemaraim, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, and said, "Hear me, Jeroboam and all Israel:
Abijah teh Ephraim ram dawk e mon Zemaraim mon dawk a kangdue teh, Oe Jeroboam Isarelnaw abuemlahoi thai awh haw.
5 Ought you not to know that YHWH, the God of Israel, gave the kingdom over Israel to David forever, even to him and to his descendants by a covenant of salt?
Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni palawi hoi lawkkamnae, Isarel uknaeram teh Devit hoi a ca catounnaw koe yungyoe hanelah a poe toe tie hah na panuek awh hoeh maw.
6 Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up, and rebelled against his lord.
Hateiteh, Devit capa Solomon e san Nebat capa Jeroboam ni a bawipa a taran toe.
7 There were gathered to him worthless men, base fellows, who strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and tenderhearted, and could not withstand them.
Solomon e capa Rehoboam teh a camo dawkvah pouklaknae hai a tawn hoeh rah dawkvah, a ngang thai hoeh torei teh, cungkeihoehe taminaw hoi tamikathoutnaw teh Rehoboam koe lah a kamkhueng awh.
8 "Now you think to withstand the kingdom of YHWH in the hand of the descendants of David; and you are a great multitude, and there are with you the golden calves which Jeroboam made you for gods.
Atu hai nangmouh ni Devit ca catounnaw kut dawk kaawm e BAWIPA e uknaeram tuk thai hanelah na pouk awh. Nangmanaw teh na pap poung awh. Jeroboam ni cathut lah na sak pouh e suimaitotanca hai nangmouh koe ao.
9 Haven't you driven out the priests of YHWH, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made priests for yourselves after the ways of the peoples of other lands? so that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams, the same may be a priest of those who are no gods.
BAWIPA e vaihmanaw, Aron e capanaw hoi Levihnaw na takhoe teh, alouke miphunnaw ni a sak e patetlah vaihmanaw na hruek awh. Maitotanca hoi tu sari touh hoi kamthoung e tami pueng teh, na cathutnaw e vaihma lah na coung sak awh nahoehmaw.
10 "But as for us, YHWH is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and we have priests ministering to YHWH, the descendants of Aaron, and the Levites in their work:
Hatei, kaimanaw teh Cathut ka pahnawt awh hoeh. Hote Cathut teh kaimae BAWIPA doeh. BAWIPA e thaw ka tawk e vaihmanaw teh Aron miphunnaw doeh. Levihnaw hai amamae thaw lengkaleng a tawk awh.
11 and they burn to YHWH every morning and every evening burnt offerings and sweet incense. They also set the show bread in order on the pure table; and the lampstand of gold with its lamps, to burn every evening: for we keep the instruction of YHWH our God; but you have forsaken him.
Amom hoi tangminlah tangkuem BAWIPA hanelah hmaisawi thuengnae hoi hmuitui ouk a thueng awh. Paawng e vaiyei hai kathounge caboi dawk a hruek awh. Tangminlah tangkuem hmaisawi hanelah sui hmaiimkhok dawk hmaiim paang teh, kaimouh ni teh BAWIPA Cathut e kâpoelawknaw ka tarawi awh. Hatei, nangmouh ni teh ahni hah na pahnawt awh.
12 Look, God is with us at our head, and his priests with the trumpets of alarm to sound an alarm against you. Children of Israel, do not fight against YHWH, the God of your fathers; for you shall not prosper."
Khenhaw! Cathut teh kaimouh koe ao teh, kaimae lû lahai ao. Vaihmanaw hai nangmanaw na tuk navah amamae kâhruetcuetnae mongka hah kâhruetcuet nahanlah ueng han lah ao awh. Oe Isarelnaw mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut tuk hanelah kâcai hanh awh. Na tuk awh pawiteh, na sung awh han telah atipouh.
13 But Jeroboam caused an ambush to come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
Hatei, Jeroboam ni a ransa tangawn hah Judah ransanaw a hnuklah arulah hoi pawp hanelah a patoun. Hahoi a tangawn teh hmalah hoi kalup vaiteh tuk hanelah a noe.
14 When Judah looked back, look, the battle was before and behind them; and they cried to YHWH, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.
Judahnaw ni hnukhma lahoi a pawp awh e a panue toteh BAWIPA a kaw awh. Vaihmanaw ni hai mongka a ueng awh.
15 Then the men of Judah gave a shout: and as the men of Judah shouted, it happened, that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
Hahoi Judahnaw a thaw awh teh puenghoi a hramki awh. Hottelah Judahnaw a hramki torei teh, Abijah hoi Judahnaw hmalah Jeroboam hoi Isarelnaw pueng Cathut ni taran a sung sak.
16 The children of Israel fled before Judah; and God delivered them into their hand.
Isarelnaw teh Judahnaw e hmalah a yawng awh teh, Cathut ni ahnimae kut dawk a poe.
17 Abijah and his people killed them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.
Abijah hoi a taminaw ni tami moikapap a thei awh teh, a rawi e tami 500000 touh a thei awh.
18 Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the people of Judah prevailed, because they relied on YHWH, the God of their fathers.
Judahnaw ni mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut kâuep awh dawkvah, Isarelnaw teh hatnavah taran a sung awh.
19 Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with its towns, and Jeshanah with its towns, and Ephron with its towns.
Hahoi Abijah ni Jeroboam a pâlei teh, Bethel khopui hoi khotenaw, Jeshanah khopui hoi khotenaw, Ephraim khopui hoi khotenaw, ahnie kut dawk hoi a lawp.
20 Jeroboam did not recover strength again in the days of Abijah. YHWH struck him, and he died.
Abijah a hring nathung Jeroboam teh a tha bout sai thai hoeh. BAWIPA ni a hem teh a due.
21 But Abijah grew mighty, and took to himself fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons, and sixteen daughters.
Hatei, Abijah teh athakaawme lah ao teh a yu 14 touh a la, ca tongpa 22 touh hoi napui 16 touh a tawn.
22 The rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, are written in the commentary of the prophet Iddo.
Abijah ni a tawksak e kaawm rae hoi a nuencang a deipan e lawklungnaw teh profet Iddo e lairui cauk dawk thut lah ao.
