< 2 Kings 25 >

1 And it came to pass, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came—he and all his force, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it, —and they built against it a siege wall, round about.
Hiti chun Zedekiah lengvai ahom kal kum ko alhin kum, lha som na, chuche lha, nisom lhin nin Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzer in asepai jouse ahin puijin Jerusalem khopi chu ahin bulutan ahi. Amahon khopi chu aum’uvin pal akai khum tauvin ahi.
2 And the city came into the siege, —until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
Zekediah lengpa lengvai ahom kal kum somle khat alhin in, Jerusalem chu galmi ten aumkhum tan ahi.
3 On the ninth of the month, when the famine had become severe in the city, —and there had come to be no bread for the people of the land,
Lha li lhinna, niko lhin nin khopi sunga neh ding akilhasam tan, kel ahahsa behseh tan, anneh twidon ding akinehchai gam tauvin kel athohpan tauvin ahi.
4 then was the city broken up, and all the men of war [fled] by night by way of the gate between the two walls, which is by the garden of the king, the Chaldeans being near the city round about, —and he went the way of the Waste Plain;
Hijou chun khopi pal chu themkhat avutbang’un, chule sepai ho jouse chu ajam gam tauvin ahi. Ajeh chu khopi chu Babylon ten aumkhum chahkheh chule jankhovah hella achanlhih jeng vangun, pal le pal kikah a lengpa honleiya chun ajamdoh tauve. Amaho chu Arabah lang jonin ache tauvin ahi.
5 and the force of the Chaldeans, pursued, the king, and overtook him in the Waste Plains of Jericho, —and, all his force, was scattered from him.
Ahinlah Babylon sepaihon lengpa chu adellun Jericho phaicham’a chun aman tauve, ajeh chu asepaiten adalhah uva kithecheh gam'a ahitauve.
6 So they seized the king, and brought him up unto the king of Babylon, at Riblah, —and they pronounced upon him sentence of judgment.
Amahon Riblah kho muna Babylon lengpa kom alhut tauvin, hilai munah chun Zedekiah lengpa chu achungthu atan tauvin ahi.
7 And, the sons of Zedekiah, they slew before his eyes, —and, the eyes of Zedekiah, put they out, and then bound him with fetters of bronze, and brought him into Babylon.
Amahon achateu atha peh uchu avetsah’un ahi. Hijou chun amit akaldoh peh’un sum-eng khaoguija akan un Babylon lang’ah akai tauvin ahi.
8 And, in the fifth month, on the seventh of the month, the same, was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, chief of the royal executioners, servant of the king of Babylon, to Jerusalem;
Nebuchadnezzer lengpa lengchan kal kum somle ko lhin kum, lha nga lhin na, chuche lha, ni sagi lhin nin, Babylon lengpa sepai pipui chuleh leng vesui lah’a lamkaipa Nebuzaradan chu Jerusalem ahung lhung atan ahi.
9 and burned the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king, —yea, all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great man’s house, burned he with fire.
Hichun aman Pakai houin, leng inpi chuleh Jerusalem a in jouse ahal lhan chuleh khopi sunga insang aphadom jouse jong asuse gam tan ahi.
10 And, the walls of Jerusalem round about, did all the force of the Chaldeans who were with the chief of the royal executioners, break down.
Chujongle aman Babylon sepai hojouse chu Jerusalem pal ho avohlhuh sah in, ajet avaija umjouse jong asuhset sah sohkeijin ahi.
11 And, the residue of the people who were left in the city, and the disheartened who fell away unto the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude, did Nebuzaradan, chief of the royal executioners, carry away captive.
Babylon lengpa tahsa vesuija pang ho lamkaipa Nebuzaradan chun, Jerusalem khopi sunga ana kidalha mipi amoh chengse, Babylon lengpa lang’a ana pang chengse chutoh mipi ahon jamah amoh chengse chu sohchang dingin ahin toldoh tauvin ahi.
12 But, of the poorest of the land, did the chief of the royal executioners, leave, for vine-dressers and for husbandmen.
Hichea hin Sepai lamkaipa hin mipi holah’a avaichapen hochu lengpilei leh lou lhou dingin adalhan ahi.
13 And, the pillars of bronze that were in the house of Yahweh, and the stands, and the sea of bronze which was in the house of Yahweh, the Chaldeans brake in pieces, and they carried away the bronze of them to Babylon;
Pakai houin maiya sum-eng khom kiphut holeh Pakai houin sunga sumeng twikonglen atunna sum-enga kisem chengse jong chu Babylon sepaiten avo chipdellun, sum-eng chengse chu Babylon lamah akipoh atove.
14 and, the caldrons, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, even all the utensils of bronze wherewith ministration used to be made, did they take away;
Chujongle Babylon mite chun bel jouseu le tupheng jouse jong, chaiche ho ahin gim namtui hal namna lhengho ahin, houin kin bolna dinga kisem sum-enga kibol umle bel lhengle kong abonchan akipoh mang tauve.
15 and, the sprinkling pans and the dashing bowls which were of gold, in gold, and which were of silver, in silver, did, the chief of the royal executions, take away.
Sepai lamkaipa Nebuzaradan chun gim namtui kihalna le kong ho chule sana le dangka thengsel'a kisem thildang dang ho jouse jong akilah gam’in ahi.
16 As for the two pillars the one sea and the stands which Solomon made for the house of Yahweh, without weight, was the bronze of all these things.
Sum-eng’a kisem khompi teni, twikonglen, akhom atunna tenia kimang umle bel, lheng le konga kimang sumeng chengse chu agihdan anasa behseh jengin tejou hilou ahi. Hiche thilkeo hose se hi Solomon lengpan Pakai houin na pang dinga anasem ho chu ahi.
17 Eighteen cubits, was the height of each pillar, and, the capital thereupon was of bronze, and, the height of the capital, was three cubits, and, the lattice-work and pomegranates upon the capital round about, the whole, was of bronze; and, like these, had the second pillar, upon the lattice-work.
Khomkhat chu asandan tong som le tong get alhingin, aluvumma chu alutomding sum-enga kisem asandan tong thum cheh a lhingin, chule khut them lah a kijempah a kolbuthei pahcha jem banga aluvum kimvella kisem sohkei ahi.
18 And the chief of the royal executioners took Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, —and the three keepers of the entrance hall;
Nebuzaradan sepai lamkaipa chun thempulen Seraiah le thempu ni lhinna Zephaniah kitipa chutoh kelkot ngah apangji mithum chutoh sohchang dingin akai mangin ahi.
19 and, out of the city, took he one courtier who himself was set over the men of war, and five men of them who were wont to see the face of the king, who were found in the city, and the scribe—general of the army, who used to muster the people of the land, —and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the city;
Chujongleh khopi sunga akisel nalai mipi holah a konin, Judah te dia gal lamkaipa leh lengpa thumop a pang mi nga, sepaite gamsungmi simtohle apang alamkai pauvin lekhasun’a amanpa leh khopi sunga kimandoh mi somgup chutoh anakai mangthan ahi.
20 and Nebuzaradan, chief of the royal executioners, took them, —and brought them unto the king of Babylon, at Riblah;
Sepai lamkaipa Nebuzaradan chun, amaho jouse chu Riblah khomun ah Babylon lengpa henga ahinkai luttan ahi.
21 and the king of Babylon smote them and slew them in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, —and thus Judah disappeared from off their own soil.
Riblah kho Hamath gamsunga chun Babylon lengpan abonchauvin adengin athat sohtai. Chuin Judah mite chu agamsung uva konin sohchang din aki kaimang sohtauvin ahi.
22 But, as for the people who were left in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon left remaining, he set over them Gedaliah, son of Ahikam son of Shaphan.
Hijou chun Nebuchadnezzer lengpan Shaphan tupa, Ahikam chapa Gedaliah chu Judah gam’ah hung kidalha mipiho chunga gamvaipo dingin ana pansah in ahi.
23 And, when all the generals of the forces, they and the men, heard that the king of Babylon had given oversight unto Gedaliah, then came they in unto Gedaliah, at Mizpah, —even Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and Seraiah son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah son of a Maacathite, they and their men.
Babylon lengpa Nebucahdnezzar in Gedaliah kitipa hi gamvaipon apansah taiti Judah mi sepai holeh apipui houvin ajah phat’un, amahon Gedaliah chu Mizpah a akimupi din ana cheuvin ahi. Amahochu Nethaniah chapa Ishmael, Kereah chapa Johanan, Netophath khomi Tanhumeth chapa Seraiah, Maacath khomi chapa Jezaniah chule akho midang jouse ahiuve.
24 And Gedaliah sware unto them, and to their men, and said to them, Do not fear because of the servants of the Chaldeans, —dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
Hichun Gedaliah chu amaho kom’achun akihahsel’in hitin aseije, “Ima kichatna le tijatna nei hih hellun, gamsunga chun lungmong in cheng un, chule Babylon lengpa thuhi ngaiyun, chutile nangho dinga imajouse phajeng ding ahi,” tin alungmon sah’un ahi.
25 And it came to pass, in the seventh month, that Ishmael son of Nethaniah a son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, —and the Jews and the Chaldeans who were with him at Mizpah.
Ahivangin hiche kumma lhasagi lhin phat’in leng insunga peng mi, Elishama tupa Nethaniah chapa Ishmael chu sepai somkhat toh ahung konin Mizpah khoa hin Gedaliah leh Judah mite toh Babylon mite umkhom apanpi chengse chu ahung delkhum mun athat tauve.
26 Then arose all the people, both small and great, and the generals of the forces, and came into Egypt, —for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
Hiche jou chun Judah ho aneovapat alenpen geijin chujongleh asepai lamkaiho geijin kichatah’in Egypt lang’ah ajam gam tauvin ahi, ajeh chu Babylon miten i-ahinlo diu ham tichu kicha a ahiuve.
27 And it came to pass, in the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, —that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, out of prison;
Judah lengpa Jehoiachin sohchanna kum somthum le sagi alhin’in, Hiche kum chuche lha, nisom ni le ni sagi lhin nin Evil-merodach chun Babylon lengmun ahinlo tan ahile, Jehoiachin chu akhoto in songkulla konin alhadoh tan ahi.
28 and he spake with him kind words, —and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon;
Amahin Jehoiachin chu ngailutna neitah’in akihoupi in, Babylon’a leng dang kihen ho sangin mun sang apen jana ana pen ahi.
29 and changed his prison garments, —and he did eat bread continually before him, all the days of his life.
Aman Jehoiachin chu songkul von khel chun vonthah anapen chuleh ahinkho lhung keija lengpatoh anneh khom dingin phalna anapen ahi.
30 And, as his allowance, a continual portion, was given him, from the king, the provision of a day upon its own day, —all the days of his life.
Hiti chun Babylon lengpan ahinkho lhumkeiya niseh’a aneh ding an agontoh peh in, ama neh ding chan khat akisem jing jeng tan ahi.
