2 Chronicles 12
1 After Rehoboam was in complete control of his kingdom, he and all [the other people in] Judah stopped obeying the laws of Yahweh.
Ahinlah Rehoboam chun dettah’a lengam atundoh’a chule thanei tah ahung hijou phat chun amale mipite jouse chun Pakai dan thu chu anungsun tauvin ahi.
2 As a result, after Rehoboam had been king for almost five years, Yahweh sent Shishak, the king of Egypt, [with his army] to attack Jerusalem.
Pakai adinga kitahna aneitahlou jeh uchun Rehoboam Leng chan kal kum nga lhin kum chun, Egypt lengpa Shishak chun Jerusalem ahin bullutan ahi.
3 Along with his army he brought 1,200 chariots and 60,000 soldiers riding horses and a very large number of troops from two regions in Libya, and from Ethiopia.
Sakol kangtalai sangkhat le jani toh sakol sepai sang somgup toh chule Libya mite, sukmite chule Ethiopia mite jaonan keng sepai simkon lou chun ahung konnun ahi.
4 They captured many of the cities in Judah that had walls around them, and they came as far as Jerusalem.
Shishak chun kulpi kigen Judah khopi ho chu alonkhum in, chuin Jerusalem lam changei chun amano kitnun aga bullu uvin ahi.
5 Then the prophet Shemaiah came to Rehoboam and the other leaders of Judah who had gathered in Jerusalem because they were afraid of [the army of] Shishak. Shemaiah said to them, “Yahweh says this: ‘You have abandoned me; so now I am abandoning you, to [allow you to be captured by the army of] Shishak.’”
Chuin Shemaiah themgaopa chu Rehoboam le Judah te milen milal ho Shishak kichat jeh’a kikhom ho koma chun ahungin, Pakai in hitihin aseije, “Nanghon keima neinung sun tah jeh uva chu, keiman jong tua hi nangho hi Shishak koma kadalhah nahitaove,” ati.
6 Then the king and the other Israeli leaders humbled themselves and said, “What Yahweh is doing to us is fair.”
Chuin Israel milen hole lengpa chu ahung kineo sah un, “Pakai in ichunguva abol hiche hi adih e,” atiuvin ahi.
7 When Yahweh realized that they had humbled themselves, he gave this message to Shemaiah: “Because they have humbled themselves, I will not allow them to be destroyed. Instead, I will soon rescue them. I will not use Shishak’s army to completely destroy the people of Jerusalem,
Pakaiyin amaho ahung kineosah’u amu phatnin, Shemiah koma thu hiche hi aseije, “Amaho ahung kineosah tah jeh uchun kasuhmang lou diu ahitai, hiti ahijeh chun gangtah’a ahuhdoh diu kahin solpeh diu ahi,” ati.
8 but they will conquer Jerusalem and force the people there to do what Shishak wants them to do. As a result, the people of Jerusalem will learn [that it is better] to serve me than to serve the kings of other countries.”
Keiman Shishak mangcha’a Jerusalem chunga kalungsatna kabuh lhah louhel ding ahitai.
9 When Shishak’s [army] attacked Jerusalem, they took/carried away the valuable things that were in the temple of Yahweh and the valuable things that were in the king’s palace. They took everything [that was valuable], including the gold shields that Solomon’s [workers] had made.
Egypt lengpa Shishak chun Jerusalem abulua chu Pakai Houin thil hojouse le leng inpi a thilho chu, ana kipoh mang ahitai. Aman Solomon in sana’a asem kidalna pho jaona athil ho jouse chu ana kilah doh gam ahitai.
10 So King Rehoboam’s workers made bronze shields to be used instead of the gold ones and gave the bronze shields to the commanders of the men who guarded the entrance to his palace.
Rehoboam lengpa chun Leng inpi lutna kotngah ho, sepai lamkai ho chu sana’a kisem kidalna pho khella sum enga pho, asem dingun anganse tan ahi.
11 After that, whenever the king went to the temple, the guards went with him, carrying those bronze shields. Then [when the king left, ] they would return the shields to the guards’ room.
Pakai, Houin a lengpa ache phat le ama ngah’a pang ho chun kidalna pho achoi jiuva kilhon khom jiova, chule amaho umna inchanna chu hung kile lhon kitji ahiuve.
12 Because Rehoboam humbled himself, Yahweh stopped being angry with him and did not get rid of him. Instead, he caused good things to happen in Judah.
Rehoboam amachama ahung kineosah tahjeh chun Pakai lunghanna chu ama-akonin akihei mang tan, hijeh chun ama chu akisumang hel tapoi. Atahbeh’a seiding chun Judah gamsunga thilpha khat ahung umdohtan ahi.
13 King Rehoboam again was in complete control in Jerusalem and continued to be the king [of Judah]. He was 41 years old when he became the king. He ruled for 17 years in Jerusalem, which is the city that Yahweh had chosen from all the tribes in Israel to be the place in which people were to worship him.
Leng Rehoboam chu ama le ama Jeruesalem a akitung det kitnin, chuin aleng hina abanjom kittan ahi. Lenga ahung pan chun ama tahsa kum chu kum somli le khat ana hin, Pakai in amin loupi koina dinga Israel phung jouse lah’a ana lhentum Jerusalem khopia achun kum somle sagi vai ana homin ahi. Anu chu Amon mi Naamah kitinu chu ahi.
14 Rehoboam’s mother’s name was Naamah. She was from the Ammon people-group. Rehoboam did evil things because he did not try to find out what Yahweh wanted him to do.
Ahinlah alungthim pumpia Pakai ahol lou jeh chun Rehoboam chu leng phalou tah khat ana hin ahi.
15 An account of all the things that Rehoboam did while he was the king, and lists of the members of his family, are in the scrolls written by the prophets Shemaiah and Iddo. The armies of Rehoboam and Jeroboam were constantly fighting each other.
Rehoboam Lengvai poh tilla patna achaina chan geija thilsoh adangho chu Themgao Shemiah lekhabu le mitva neipa Iddo lekhabua chun akisun lut soh keijin ahi.
16 When Rehoboam died, he was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Abijah became the king.
Rehoboam athiphat chun David khopia chun akivui tai, chuin achapa Abijah chu ama bantah in Leng ahung hitan ahi.
