1 Asa Lengvai poh kum somthum lhin kumin, Israel lengpa Baasha chun Judah gam ahin bullu tan ahile; Judah gamsunga Asa gamkol akonna koimacha lutle potle aumlouna dingin Ramah khopia chun kul agen tan ahi.
In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, —that he might let none come out or go in, unto Asa king of Judah.
2 Asa chun alethuh nai, Pakai Houin le leng inpia um gouthil kikoina um sana le dangka jouse chu aladoh in; Damascus gam vaihom Ram Lengpa Baasha chu thu athot tan ahi.
So Asa brought forth silver and gold, out of the treasuries of the house of Yahweh, and the house of the king, —and sent unto Ben-hadad, king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:
3 Kapa le nangpa kah’a kinoptona ana um bang chun eini kah’a jong umhen. “Ven, keiman sana le dangka kahin thotne Israel lengpa Baasha toh na kinop tona hon chu sutang jengin chutile aman eidalha tante.”
[Let there be] a covenant, between me and thee, as between my father and thy father.—Lo! I have sent thee silver and gold, go break thy covenant with Baasha king of Israel, that he may go up from me.
4 Ben-Hadad leng pan Asa taona anoppeh in, chule Israel khopi ho bullu ding in a sepai ja lamkai pachu asoltan ahi. Amahon Ijon, dan Abel-beth- Maacah khopiho le Naphthali gam sunga thil khol khopi len ho jouse chu ala tauvin ahi.
And Ben-hadad hearkened unto King Asa, and sent the chieftains of the forces which he had, against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon and Dan, and Abel-maim, —and all the storehouses of the cities of Naphtali.
5 Baasha Israel Lengpan thilsoh ho chu ajah doh doh chun, Ramah khopi kul getna tohgon adalhan anatoh jouse chu angatan ahi.
And it cams to pass, when Baasha heard it, he left off building Ramah, —and let his work cease.
6 Chuin Lengpa Asa, “Chun in Ramah khopia kul semnaa mandin Baashan akoi in, songho le thing kiatsa ho pomang ding chun Judah te mijouse chu akoudoh tan ahi. Hiche chu Geba le Mizpah khopi kul semnan amangcha tan ahi.”
And, Asa the king, took all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timbers thereof, which Baasha had used in building, —and he built therewith, Geba and Mizpah.
7 Hiche pet hin Hanami mitva neipa Lengpa Asa komma ahungin, chule hitin asepeh’e, “Nangman Pakai na-Pathen khella Ram Lengpa chunga tahsana na koi tah jeh chun, Ram Lengpa sepaite suhmang na ding phatpha chu namansah tai.
And, at that time, came Hanani the seer, unto Asa the king of Judah, —and said unto him, Because thou hast leaned upon the king of Syria, and hast not leaned upon Yahweh thy God, for this cause, hath the force of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.
8 Ethiopia le Libya te chule Sepai tamtah toh akangtalai hou le kangtalai tol ho chunga, ipi anasoh ham tichu nagel doh lou hitam? Hiche petna chu nangma Pakaiya naki ngai jeh’a aman nangma napehdoh ahi,” ati.
Were not, the Ethiopians and the Lybians, a huge host, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? yet, because thou didst lean upon Yahweh, he delivered them into thy hand.
9 Pakaiyin leiset pumpia hi ama komma alungthim pea kipedoh ho chu, “Athahat theina diuva amit tenia hi ahol le ji ahi. Iti ngolla ngol nahi hitam! Tua kipat na hi nang man gal nasat jing ding ahitai,” tin aseipeh tan ahi.
For, as touching Yahweh, [seeing that], his eyes, are ever running to and fro throughout all the earth, to shew himself strong with them who are perfect toward himself, thou hast made thyself foolish over this, —for, from henceforth, there shall be with thee—wars.
10 Hanani in hitiho aseipeh jeh chun, Asa chu alung hang behset in ama chu Songkul'a ahengin bul atuh tan ahi. Hiche pet chun amite phabep jong asugim pan tan ahi.
Then was Asa angry with the seer, and put him in the house of the stocks, for he was in a rage with him, over this, —and Asa oppressed some of the people, at that time.
11 Asa Lengvaipoh abulla pat achaina chan thilsoh thusim adangho chu, Judah le Israel te lengho thusim bua akijih lut soh keijin ahi.
But lo! the story of Asa, first and last, there it is, written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 Ama Leng vaipoh kum somthum le ko lhin kum chun, Asa chu keng natna khohtah khat aveitan ahi. Chutobang natna khohtah aneijing vang chun, Pakai hollouvin alou them aithem hojoh kithopina ahol jingin ahi.
And Asa became diseased—in the thirty-ninth year of his reign—in his feet, exceedingly severe, was his disease, —yet, even in his disease, he sought not Yahweh, but unto physicians.
13 Hichun aleng vaipoh kum som le li lhinna kum chun athitan ahi.
And Asa slept with his fathers, —yea he died in the forty-first year of his reign;
14 David khopia chun aman song chunga ana kikhen lhan achun akivuitan ahi. Ama chu gim namtui le thao namtui kinu lupna achun alupsah un, chuin mipi ho chun ama jana vetsahnan kigona meikong lentah khat ahaluvin ahi.
and they buried him in his own stately sepulchre, which he had hewn for himself in the city of David, and laid him on a couch which was full of sweet spices—yea of various kinds, made by the perfumer’s art, —and they burned for him with an exceeding great burning.
