< 2 Chronicles 26 >

1 After King Amaziah died, all the people of Judah appointed his son Uzziah, who then was 16 years old, as their king. [One of the things that happened] while he was the king [was that] his men captured Elath [town on the Gulf of Aqaba] and rebuilt it.
Judah mipiten Amaziah chapa Uzziah chu kum 16 alhin kummin apakhellin leng achan sahtaovin ahi
2
Apa Amaziah athijou chun Uzziah in Elath anung lahpeh kitnin akhopi chu asempha kitnin ahi
3 Uzziah ruled in Jerusalem for 52 years. His mother was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem.
Uzziah leng ahung chanchun kum 16 alhingtan ahi chuleh aman Jerusalem machun kum 52 sungin vai anahommin ahi. Anuchu Jerusalemma konna Jecoliah kitinu chu ahi
4 Uzziah did things that Yahweh considered to be good, like his father Amaziah had done.
Apa umdaan chu anachepi in Pathen deilam jong ana bollin ahi
5 He tried to please God while [the priest] Zechariah was living, because Zechariah taught him to revere God. As long as Uzziah tried to please God, God enabled him to be successful.
Houlanga ana puihoijah Zechariah anahin leisen Pakai chu kitahna neitah in anajuijin ahileh Pathenin jong phatthei ana bohin ahi
6 Uzziah and his army started to fight against the army of Philistia. They tore down the walls of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod [cities]. Then they rebuilt the towns near Ashdod and in other places in Philistia.
Uzziah in Philistine te dounan gal anasatnin ahi. Aman Gath, Jemniah leh Ashdod khopi kulpi hochu ana volhun hijouchun
7 God helped them to fight the army of Philistia and the Arabs who lived in [the town of] Gur-Baal and the descendants of Meun who had come to that area from Edom.
Pathen panpi najallin Philistine te Gur – Baal a cheng Arabians Mehunins mite ana jouvin ahi
8 Even the Ammon [people-group] paid taxes to Uzziah each year. So Uzziah became famous as far as the border of Egypt, because he had become very powerful.
Amon miten jong Uzziah kommah kai anapeovin hitichun amahi ahung hatdoh lheh jengtaan ahileh Egypt gamsung geijin ana minthang pehin ahi
9 Uzziah’s [workers] built watchtowers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, at the Valley Gate, and at the place where the wall turns, and they placed weapons in them.
Uzziah in Jerusalem ninglang kelkot leh phaicham lang kelkot chuleh kulpi pal kihei konna munho jouse chunga chun insang asadohin hitihin khopi kulpi chu anasudet soh keijin ahi
10 They also built watchtowers in the desert and dug many wells. They did that [to provide water] for a lot of the king’s cattle that were in the foothills and in the plains. Uzziah liked farming, so he also stationed workers [to take care of] his fields and vineyards in the hills and in the fertile areas.
Aman gam ong lah a jenga jong kulpi dingin insang ho anasan chuleh twiputna dingin mun tamtah analaijin, lhumlam molpang holeh phaicham mah gancha tamtah ana vah'in ahi. aman mipi hojong lengpilei boldingin atilkhouvin thinglhang louphat na hoa jong lou abolsah in ahi
11 Uzziah’s army was trained for fighting battles. They were in groups that were always ready to go into battle. Jeiel, the king’s secretary, and Maaseiah, one of the army officers, counted the men and placed them in groups. Hananiah, one of the king’s officials, was their commander.
Aman galmi tamtah galsat dinga kigosadem ho aneiyin, ama ho record chu leng insungmi sepai lamkai Hananiah vetsui nanoija thuching teni Jeiel leh Maaseiah in ajihlut lhonin ahi
12 There were 2,600 leaders of those groups of soldiers.
A sepai techu sepai lamkai 2600 (Sangni le jagup) ho thupeh nanoija um ahiove
13 In the groups that those leaders commanded there were a total of 307,500 well-trained soldiers. It was a very powerful army which was ready to help the king fight against his enemies.
Amaho noija lengpa huhna dinga thanei tah a galsat thei sepai 307500 (Lakh thumle sang sagi le ja nga) aneiyin ahi
14 Uzziah gave to each soldier a shield, a spear, a helmet, a vest made of iron plates, a bow [and arrows], and a slingshot.
Uzziah sepai hijat dingin ompho, tengcha thihlukhuh asempeh in, thalpi jong asempeh in song sena bomjong asem peh in achang ding jong alokhom peh in ahi
15 In Jerusalem his skilled workers made machines to put on the watchtowers and on the corners [of the walls], to shoot arrows and to hurl large stones. He became very famous even in distant places, because God helped him very much and enabled him to become very powerful.
Jerusalem khopiah khopi pal chunga konna songlentah tah sedoh thei nading leh thal kapdoh theinading manchah semthemho agoijin ahi. Aman Pathenna konna panpina amujeh in athahat na akijesallin gamtinnah amin thang lheh jengtaan ahi
16 But because Uzziah was very powerful, he became very proud, and that led to his being punished. He disobeyed what Yahweh his God had commanded. He went into the temple to burn incense on the altar [where God had said that only the priests should burn] incense.
Uzziah lengpa hi ahung hatdoh phatnin ahung kiletsah taan hiche hin a lhuhnading lampi ahin gongdoh taan ahi. Aman a Pakai a Pathen dou na in houin nah alutnin maicham muntheng ngachun gimnamtwi ahal gotaan ahi
17 Azariah the [Supreme] Priest and 80 other brave priests followed him into the temple.
Thempupa Azariah chu mithahat lehmihang san cheh thempu hotoh akilhon nin lengpa chu ajui taovin
18 They rebuked him and said to him, “Uzziah, it is not right for you to burn incense to [honor] Yahweh. That duty is only for the priests, those who are descendants of Aaron [our first Supreme Priest]! You must leave [immediately], because you have disobeyed Yahweh our God, and he will not honor you [for what you have done]!”
Ama suhtang nading chun hitin aphoh un ahi “Uzziah! nangin Pakai dinga gimnam twi nahal nading tha nanei poi, Aaron chilhah hitobang boldinga kisutheng thempu honbou abol diu ahi hiche munthenga konhin potdoh'in nangin Pakai Pathen doumah nabol jeh a hi a malsomna nachan jou louding ahitai” atiovin ahi.
19 Uzziah had in his hand a pan for burning incense. He became very angry with the priests, but suddenly there was leprosy on his forehead.
Uzziah chun gimnamtwi halnachu achoijin houin sunga maicham panga chun adingin ahi. Ama thempu ho chunga ahung lunghang jahjeng phat chun tiphah khohtah chu adeh panga ahung chutaan ahi
20 When Azariah the [Supreme] Priest and all the other priests [who were there] looked at him, they saw the leprosy on his forehead, so they quickly took him outside. And truly the king was eager to leave the temple, because he knew that it was Yahweh who had caused him to have that leprosy, [and he did not want it to become worse.]
Azariah leh thempu dang hochun lengpa dehpang chu tijatah'in aveovin ahi, hijouchun amachu houinna kon in anodoh tho taovin ahi, ajeh chu Pakaiyin ama chu ajep ahi tai
21 King Uzziah had leprosy until he died. And because he had leprosy, he lived in a house that was not near other houses, and he was not allowed to enter [the courtyard of] the temple. His son Jotham supervised the palace and ruled the people of Judah.
Uzziah lengpachu hiche phahna jehhin ahinkho lhung keijin dandung juiyin thenglou vin aumtaan ahi. Houin sung lelut kit thei louvin aleng hi na a akin tongthei talouvin a in'ah achuti umtaan achapa Jotham min ama khellin agam sunga vai ahomtaan ahi
22 A record of all the other things that Uzziah did while he was the king [of Judah] was written by the prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz.
Uzziah avaihom sunga atoh ho jouse chu Amoz chapa themgao Isaiah in ajihlut soh keijin ahi
23 Because Uzziah was a leper, [when he died, ] they would not bury him in the tombs where the other kings were buried. Instead, he was buried in a nearby cemetery that the kings owned. Then his son Jotham became the king [of Judah].
Uzziah athi phatnin lengte kivuina gamsunga avuijun ahinlah aphah jeh chun lengte kivui na lhan navang avui tapouve. Achapa Jotham min aleng mun chu alo taan ahi
