< 2 Kings 15 >

1 After Jeroboam had been ruling Israel for almost twenty-seven years, Uzziah, the son of King Amaziah of Judah, began to rule.
Israel lengpa Jeroboam ni na vaihom kum somni le sagi lhin chun, Amaziah chapa Uzziah chun Judah lenggam ah vai ahinhom pantan ahi.
2 He was 16 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled in Jerusalem for 52 years. His mother was Jecoliah, from Jerusalem.
Ama leng ahung chan kum chun, ama kum somle gup alhingtan ahi, chuleh aman Jerusalem’ah kum somle nga sungin lengvai anahom in ahi. Anu chu Jerusalem ma kon Jecoliah ahi.
3 He did things that Yahweh was pleased with, like his father Amaziah had done.
Amahin apa bangin Pathen mitmu’n alunglhaina jeng ana bollin ahi.
4 But, the places at the pagan shrines where they worshiped Yahweh were not destroyed, and the people continued to burn incense [to honor Yahweh] at those places [instead of in Jerusalem, the place that Yahweh had appointed].
Ahinlah aman doiphung ho ana sumang dehpon chuleh mipihon kithoina gantha ana bollun hal namtui jong ana lhut’un ahi.
5 Yahweh caused Uzziah to become a leper, and he was a leper for the rest of his life. [He was not allowed to live in the palace]. He lived alone in a house, and his son Jotham ruled the country.
Pakaiyin lengpa chu anaphah sah in athini khogei jin aphah in ahi. Ama chu in chom’ah atum’in achangin ana chengin ahi. Lengpa chapa Jotham chu leng inpi ngahin anapangin ahi, hiti chun aman gamsung mite lah’a vai anahom in ahi.
6 [If you want to know about] everything else that Uzziah did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Uzziah vaihom sunga thilsoh hole aman anatohdoh ho jouse chu Judah lengte thusim kijihlutna lekhabua aum in ahi.
7 Uzziah died [EUP], and they buried him in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors had been buried. Then his son Jotham officially became the king.
Uzziah athiphat’in amachu David khopia apu apate kivuina munah ana kivuijin ahi. Achapa Jotham chun ama banin lengmun analo tan ahi.
8 After Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-eight years, Zechariah, the son of Jeroboam, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for [only] six months.
Judah lengpa Uzziah in Judah gam anapoh kum somthum le get lhinin Jeroboam ni na chapa Zechariah in Israel te chunga vai ana hom’in ahi. Aman Samaria ah lha gup vai anahom in ahi.
9 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his ancestors had done. He committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the Israeli people to sin.
Zechariah in apu apate bang bangin Pakai mitmu’n thilse jeng ana bollin, Nebat chapa Jeroboam min Israel te anachonset sah bangin ama jong hiche chonsetna ho akonin kile heiding ana nompon ahi.
10 Then Shallum, the son of Jabesh, made plans to assassinate Zechariah. He killed him at Ibleam [town], and then he became the king.
Hijou chun Jabesh chapa Shallum chun Zechariah dounan lungthimse ana gongin mipi lah’a ana that in, ama leng ahung chang tan ahi.
11 Everything else that Zechariah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Zechariah vaihom sunga thilsoh ho jouse chu Israel lengte thusim kijihna lekhabua chun abon'in aum’in ahi.
12 When Zechariah died, [that ended the dynasty of King Jehu]. That fulfilled what Yahweh said to King Jehu would happen: “Your son and grandson and great-grandson and great-great-grandson will all be kings of Israel.”
Pakaiyin Jehu kom’a anasei, “Nachilhah te khang li geija leng kachansah ding ahi,” tichu guilhun na ahi.
13 Shallum, the son of Jabesh, became the king of Israel after King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years. But Shallum ruled in Samaria for [only] one month.
Judah gam'a Uzziah in leng achan kal kum som thumle ko alhinin, Jebesh chapa Shallum hin Israel gamsung’a lengvai ana hom’in ahi.
14 Then Menahem, the son of Gadi, went up from Tirzah [city] to Samaria and assassinated Shallum. Then Menahem became the king of Israel.
Hijou chun Gadi chapa Menahem chu Tirzah a konin Samaria-ah agachen ama chu athat’in, lengmun ahin lotan ahi.
15 Everything else that Shallum did, including his killing King Zechariah, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Shallum vaihom sunga thilsoh ho chuleh alungthimse gonho pum chun, Israelte thusim kijih lutna lekhabua abonchan aum’in ahi.
16 While Menahem was ruling in Samaria, he completely destroyed Tappuah [village south of Samaria] and killed all the people who lived there and in the surrounding territory. He did that because the people in that city refused to surrender to him. [With his sword] he even ripped open the bellies of pregnant women.
Hiche pat chun Menahem in Tappuah khopi leh avella gamho jouse, Tirzah geijin asumang hel in ahi, ajeh chu akhomite le akimvela mite, akhopi ho chu akoma ahin pehlut nomlou jeh’u ahi. Aman agamsung mite jouse chu athat gam’in chule numei gailai ho jong akhedoh sohkei jin ahi.
17 When King Azariah had been ruling Judah for almost thirty-nine years, Menahem, the son of Gadi, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for ten years.
Judah gam’ah Uzziah lengpan lengvai ana hom kal kum somthum le ko alhinin, Gadi chapa Menahem in Israel gam’ah lengvai ana hom’in ahi. Aman Samaria a hin kum som sungin lengvai ana hom’in ahi.
18 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kinds of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin. He continued to commit those sins for the rest of his life.
Ahin Menahem hin Pathen mitmu’n thilse jing anabol in ahi. Avaihom sunghin Nebat chapa Jeroboam min Israelte achonset sahna a kona kile heiding ana nompon ahi.
19 Then King Tiglath-Pileser of Assyria came [with his army] to attack Israel. So Menahem gave him (thirty-eight tons/35,000 kg.) of silver in order that Tiglath-Pileser would help Menahem to continue to be king and rule his country more strongly.
Hijou chun Assyria mi Tiglath-pileser lengpan gamsung chu gal’in ahin nokhumtan ahi. Ahinla Menahem min athaneina a vai ahomjom jouna dingin ama chu dangka ton somthum le sagi anapen ahi.
20 Menahem obtained that money from the rich men in Israel. He compelled each of them to contribute 50 pieces of silver. So Tiglath-Pileser [took that money and] went back home.
Menahem hin Israel mite lah’a ahaoho kom’ah sum namna in ala in, mikhat cheh chun Assyria lengpa hi dangka som nga cheh apeh diuvin thu apen ahi. Hiti chun Assyria lengpa chu Israel gam'a kon chun ahung kinungle tan ahi.
21 [If you want to know more about] everything that Menahem did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Menahem vaihom sunga thilsoh ho chuleh aman atoh ho jouse chu Israel lengte thusim kijihlutna lekhabua aum’in ahi.
22 Menahem died [EUP] and was buried, and his son Pekahiah became the king of Israel.
Menahem athiphat’in, achapa Pekahiah in leng mun ahinlo tan ahi.
23 When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 50 years, Menahem’s son Pekahiah became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for [only] two years.
Judah gam'a Uzziah in lengvai apoh kal kum som nga alhinin, Menahem chapa Pekahiah in Israel gam’ah lengvai ahin hompan in ahi.
24 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin.
Ahinlah Pekahiah chun Pakai mitmu’n thilse jing ana bollin, Nebat chapa Jeroboam in Israel te ana chonset sahna a kon chun kiheimang ding ana nompon ahi.
25 Then one of Pekahiah’s army commanders whose name was Pekah, the son of Remaliah, planned with 50 men from [the] Gilead [region] to kill Pekahiah. They assassinated him in a fortified place in the king’s palace in Samaria. Then Pekah became the king.
Hijou chun Remaliah chapa Pekah, Pekahiah sepai lamkaipa chun achung nga thilse ana gongin ahi. Aman Gilead akonin mi som nga leh Argob le Arieh toh akitho in Pekahiah chu Samria leng inpi ah chun ana that’un, hiti chun Pekah leng ahung chang tan ahi.
26 Everything else that Pekahiah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Pekahiah vaihom sunga thilsoh ho chuleh aman anatohho chu Israel lengte thusim kijihna lekhabua abonchan aum’in ahi.
27 When King Uzziah had been ruling Judah for almost 52 years, Pekah, the son of Remaliah, became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria for 20 years.
Judah gamsunga Uzziah lengpan alengvaipoh kum som nga le ni alhinin, Remaliah chapa Pekah in Israel te chungah lengvai ana hom panin ahi.
28 He also did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He committed the same kind of sins that King Jeroboam had committed, sins that led the people of Israel to sin.
Pekah in Pakai mitmu’n thilse jeng anabollin, Nebat chapa Jeroboam min Israelte ana chonset sahna a kona kinnung heiding chu ana nompon ahi.
29 While Pekah was the king, Tiglath-Pileser, the king of Assyria, came [with his army] and captured [the cities of] Ijon, Abel-Beth-Maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, and the regions of Gilead, Galilee, and Naphtali. His army forced the Israeli people to leave their country and go to live in Assyria.
Pekah vaihom sungin Assyria lengpa Tiglath-pileser in Israel ahin sat in Ijon khopi, Abel-beth-maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, leh Hazor khopi ho ana kilahtan ahi. Aman Gilead gam leh avel ho, Galilee chule Naphtali ho ajouvin chuleh mipiho chu Assyria gam’ah gal hing in ana kaimang tan ahi.
30 Then Hoshea, the son of Elah, plotted to kill Pekah. He assassinated him when Uzziah’s son Jotham had been ruling Judah for almost 20 years. Then Hoshea became the king of Israel.
Hijou chun Elah chapa Hoshea chun Pekah douna lungthim phalou ana gongin, ana that dohtan ahi. Aman Uzziah chapa Jotham vaihom kal kum somni lhinin Israel chunga lengvai anahom pantan ahi.
31 Everything else that Pekah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Pekah vaihom sunga thilsoh ho, aman anatoh ho chu Israel lengte thusim kijihna lekhabua aum’in ahi.
32 When Pekah had been ruling Israel for almost two years, Uzziah’s son Jotham began to rule Judah.
Pekah lengpan Israel gamsunga lengvai apoh kal kum ni lhinin, Uzziah chapa Jotham in Judah gam’ah lengvai anahom’in ahi.
33 He was 25 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. His mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
Aman lengvai ahinpoh chun ama kum somni le nga alhingtan ahi. Aman Jerusalem’ah kum somle gup sungin lengvai anahom in ahi. Anu min chu Zadok chanu Jerusha ahi.
34 He did many things that pleased Yahweh, like his father Uzziah had done.
Jotham hin Pakai mitmu’n thilpha jeng ana bollin, amahin apa Uzziah in bangin thil ijakai ana tongdoh sohkeijin ahi.
35 But he did not destroy the places on the tops of hills where the people worshiped [Yahweh], and the people continued to burn incense there [to honor Yahweh]. Jotham’s workers built the Upper Gate of the temple.
Ahinlah aman doiphung ho chu ana sumang pon chuleh mipiho chun hikoma chu kilhaina gantha le gimnamtui jong ana lhut’un ahi. Aman Pakai houin sahlam kelkot jong chu ana semphan ahi.
36 [If you want to know more about] everything else that Jotham did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Jotham vaihom sunga thilsoh jouse leh aman ana thilbol jouse Judah lengte thusimbua akijih lut soh keijin ahi.
37 It was during the time that Jotham was the king that Yahweh sent King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel [with their armies] to attack Judah.
Hiche nikholai chun, Pakaiyin Syria lengpa Rezin leh Israel lengpa Pekah chu Judah nokhum dingin ahin solpan tan ahi.
38 Jotham died [EUP] and was buried where his ancestors had been buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Ahaz became the king of Judah.
Jotham athiphat’in David khopia apu apate kivuina munah ana vuikhom tauvin ahi. Akhelin achapa Ahaz chun lengvai ahinpo tan ahi.
