< 2 Kings 22 >
1 Eight years old, was Josiah when he began to reign, and, thirty-one years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, this mother’s name, was Jedidah daughter of Adaiah, of Bozkath.
Josiah hi leng ahungchan kum chun ama kum get bou anahi, chuleh aman Jerusalem’ah kum somthum le khat sung lengvai anahom’in ahi. Anuchu Jedidah ahin Bozkath kho a kona Adaiah chanu ahi.
2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, —and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside, to the right hand or to the left.
Amahin Pathen mitmu’n thilpha jing anabollin, apu David khonung chu anajuijin ahi. Amahin thildih bolna dinga hin ana nungchon pon ahi.
3 And it came to pass, in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan son of Azaliah son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Yahweh, saying—
Ama vaihom kum somle get alhinin, Josiah lengpan Meshullam tupa Azaliah chapa Shaphan chu thutanna munna lekhasunpa chu Pakai houin’ah ana sollin, hitihin thu anapen ahi,
4 Go up unto Hilkiah, the high priest, that he pour out the silver that hath been brought into the house of Yahweh, —which the keepers of the entrance-hall have gathered from the people,
“Nangma thempulen Hilkiah koma gache inlang, kot ngah pan Pakai houin'a mipi akona adondoh’u sum hochu simtoh henlang,
5 that they may give it into the hand of the doers of the work, who have oversight of the house of Yahweh, that they may give it to the doers of the work, who are in the house of Yahweh, to repair the breaches of the house;
Houin semphatna dinga vaihom ho khutna pelut hen, chutileh amahon Pakai houin sahphatna a natong ho chu athaman u peh nan mangcha theiyun te,” ati.
6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, —and to buy timber, and hewn stones, for repairing the house.
Amahon thingthembol ho, insa ho chule songkhengthem ho goina’a amanchah theidiu ahi. Chujongleh Houin semphatna man dingin thing chuleh song kikhengsa ho chule adang houin semphatna dinga ngaichat umho chu chohnan mang’u hen,” ati.
7 Howbeit there used to be no reckoning made with them, as to the silver that was given into their hand, —because, with faithfulness, were they dealing.
“Ahinla insahna dinga vaihom hochun akhut uva sum hunglut hochu ajat simtoh suhtoh le kholtoh angaipoi, ajeh chu amaho lungtheng cheh leh tahsan theidolcheh ahinauve,” ati.
8 Then said Hilkiah the high priest, unto Shaphan the scribe—The book of the law, have I found, in the house of Yahweh. So Hilkiah delivered the book unto Shaphan, and he read it.
Hilkiah thempu lenpa chun thutanna lekhasunpa kom’a chun, “Keiman Pakai houin sunga chun Dan buchu kamu dohtai,” ati. Hichun Hilkiah chun hiche lekhajol chu Shaphan kom’a apen aman jong asim’in ahi.
9 Then came Shaphan the scribe unto the king, and brought the king word again, —and said—Thy servants have poured out the silver that was found in the house, and have delivered it unto the hand of the doers of the work, who have oversight of the house of Yahweh.
Shaphan chu lengpa kom’a achen thilsoh ho chu alhut un, “Nanoija mopohna neiho chun Pakai houin na sum hunglut hochu houin’a natong hole toh lamkai ho khutna apelut tauve,” atiuvin.
10 Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying—A book, hath Hilkiah the priest delivered unto me. And Shaphan read it before the king.
Shaphan chun lengpa chu aseipeh kit’in, “Hilkiah thempu pachun lekhajol khat eipe in ahi,” ati, hichun Shaphan in jong lengpa chu asim pehtan ahi.
11 And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.
Lengpa chun hiche Dan lekhabua kijih chu ajah phat chun, lungkham tah’in apon abot eh jengin ahi.
12 And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Achbor son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying:
Hiche jouchun aman, Hilkiah thempupa, Shaphan chapa Ahikam, Micaiah chapa Acbor, Shaphan thutanna'a lekhasunpa chuleh Asaiah lengpa thumop a pang, amaho koma chun hiche thupeh apetan ahi.
13 Go ye—enquire of Yahweh, for me and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book which hath been found, —for, great, is the wrath of Yahweh, in that it hath fired up against us, because our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according to all which is written concerning us.
“Nangho cheuvin lang keima leh Judah mipi ho jouse thalhengin Pakai kom’ah tao unlang, akimudoh lekahjol akijih thucheng ho chung chang hi gakhol toh tauvin. Ajeh chu ipu ipateu vin hiche lekhajol kijih thucheng ho dungjuijahi ana chonloujeh uvin, achung'uva Pakai lunghan na hi adeojah jing in ahi. Eihon itohtei diuva kisei i-toh diu thilho chu khatcha jong ihin tong pouvin ahi,” ati.
14 So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went unto Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum son of Tikvah, son of Harhas keeper of the vestments, she having her dwelling in Jerusalem, in the new city, —and they spake unto her.
Hijeh chun Hilkiah thempupa, Ahikam, Achor, Shapahn leh Asaiah chu Jerusalem a chenna ding munthah lang achun Huldah themgaonu ga dongtoh dingin acheuvin ahi. Amanu hi Harhas chapa Tikvah chapa Shallum jinu, houin a vonchol vesuija pang ahi.
15 And she said unto them, Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, Say ye unto the man who hath sent you unto me:
Amanu chun amaho kom’ah chun, “Israel Pakai Pathen chun hitin aseije, kileuvin lang nahin solpa kom’a chun hitin aseijun,” ati.
16 Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! about to bring calamity upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, —all the words of the book, which, the king of Judah, hath read:
“Hiche hi Pakai thusei ahi, Keiman hiche khopile amite chunga hi thohgimna kahin chuhsah ding ahi. Judah lengpan asimdoh hiche lekhajolla kijih ho chengsehi hung guilhung teiding ahi.
17 Because they have forsaken me, and burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger, with all the workmanship of their hands; and so my wrath shall fire up against this place, and shall not be quenched:
Ajeh chu kamiten eipaidoh tauvin, Pathen neilou namdangte semthu pathen ho kom’ah kilhaina gantha akatdoh tauvin, athilbol hojouse jeh in keima eilunghan sahlheh tauvin ahi. Hiche mun douna kalunghan hi deojah jeng ding ahin hiche chu chen-mitjou hilou ding ahi,” ati.
18 But, unto the king of Judah, who hath sent you to enquire of Yahweh, thus, shall ye say unto him, —Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, As touching the words which thou hast heard:
“Ahinlah Pakai holding’a nahin sol uvah Judah lengpa kom’achun cheuvinlang hitin seipehun, Hichehi Israel Pathen Pakaiyin nathujah thupeh chungchanga chun hitin aseije,
19 Because, tender, was thy heart, and thou didst humble thyself before Yahweh when thou heardest what I had spoken against this place and against the inhabitants thereof—that they should become a desolation and a curse, and didst rend thy clothes, and weep before me, therefore also, I, have hearkened—declareth Yahweh.
Nangma nalungkham’in, nang le nang nakisunem lhehjingin, nangin hiche khopi le amite douna kasei hiche gamhi sapsetna aching ding chule ahomkeo hung hiding ahi, kitichu najah phat’in lungkham tah in napon nabottel jengin chuleh kisih tah in nakap jah jengin ahi. Hijehchun keiman tahbeh in nataona chu kajatai tin Pakaiyin aseije,” ati.
20 For this cause, behold me! about to gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered unto thy graves, in peace, and so thine eyes shall not look upon all the misfortune which I am about to bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
“Hijeh chun keiman kateppeh hamsetna chu nangma nathi’a lungmong’a nakivui kahsen hinchuhsah taponge. Keiman hiche khopi chunga kachuhsah ding suhgimna chu nangin namutah louding ahi,” ati. Hiti chun amanu kona thupeh chu lengpa kom’ah ale pohlut peh tauvin ahi.
