2 Chronicles 35
1 Josiah kept a Passover to Yahweh in Jerusalem. They killed the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Josiah mah Jerusalem ah Angraeng khaeah misong loihaih poih to sak; loihhaih poih ah tuucaa to khrah tangsuek haih, ni hatlai palito naah a boh.
2 He set the priests in their offices and encouraged them in the service of Yahweh’s house.
Qaimanawk to angmacae toksakhaih ahmuen ah ohsak moe, Angraeng im ah toksak hanah nihcae to thapaek.
3 He said to the Levites who taught all Israel, who were holy to Yahweh, “Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built. It will no longer be a burden on your shoulders. Now serve Yahweh your God and his people Israel.
Angraeng khaeah ciimcai moe, Israel caanawk boih patukkung, Levi acaengnawk khaeah, kaciim thingkhong to Israel siangpahrang David capa Solomon mah sak ih im thungah suem oh; kaciim thingkhong to palaeng hoi apu o hmah; angmah ih kami Israelnawk hoi na Angraeng Sithaw ih tok to sah oh.
4 Prepare yourselves after your fathers’ houses by your divisions, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and according to the writing of Solomon his son.
Israel siangpahrang David hoi a capa Solomon mah nangmacae acaeng acaeng ah toksak hanah ca ang tarik pae o ih baktih toengah toksak amsak oh.
5 Stand in the holy place according to the divisions of the fathers’ houses of your brothers the children of the people, and let there be for each a portion of a fathers’ house of the Levites.
Prae thung ih kaminawk, nam panawk ih nawkamya hoi Levi acaeng maeto boih mah sak han koi tok to pazet oh loe, hmuenciim ah angdoe oh.
6 Kill the Passover lamb, sanctify yourselves, and prepare for your brothers, to do according to Yahweh’s word by Moses.”
Loihhaih tuucaanawk to bop oh, nangmacae hoi nangmacae to ciimcai oh, Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah paek ih lok baktih toengah, nam nawkamyanawk mah poih sak o hanah thui pae oh, tiah a naa.
7 Josiah gave to the children of the people, of the flock, lambs and young goats, all of them for the Passover offerings, to all who were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand bulls. These were of the king’s substance.
Loihhaih poihkung ah angzo kaminawk boih to pacah hanah, Josiah siangpahrang mah angmah ih tuucaa hoi maeh sing thumto paek, maitaw tae sang thumto doeh paek bae vop.
8 His princes gave a free will offering to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites. Hilkiah, Zechariah, and Jehiel, the rulers of God’s house, gave to the priests for the Passover offerings two thousand six hundred small livestock, and three hundred head of cattle.
Angmah ih angraengnawk, qaimanawk hoi Levi acaengnawk mah doeh palunghuemhaih hoiah paek o toeng; Hilkiah, Zekariah, Jehiel hoi Sithaw im ukkungnawk mah, loihhaih poih sak hanah qaimanawk khaeah, tuu hoi maeh sang hnet, cumvai tarukto, maitaw tae cumvai thumto paek o.
9 Conaniah also, and Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, and Hashabiah, Jeiel, and Jozabad, the chiefs of the Levites, gave to the Levites for the Passover offerings five thousand small livestock and five hundred head of cattle.
Levi acaengnawk thungah kalen koek, Konaniah, Shemaiah, Nethanel, Hashabiah, Jeiel, Jozabad hoi nawkamyanawk mah doeh, loihhaih poih sak hanah tuucaa hoi maeh sang pangato, maitaw tae cumvai pangato paek o toeng.
10 So the service was prepared, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites by their divisions, according to the king’s commandment.
Siangpahrang lokpaekhaih baktih toengah, qaimanawk loe toksak hanah angmacae angdoethaih ahmuen ah angdoet o, Levi acaengnawk doeh angmacae ih tok to sak o.
11 They killed the Passover lambs, and the priests sprinkled the blood which they received from their hands, and the Levites skinned them.
Loihhaih poih sak hanah tuucaanawk to boh o; qaimanawk mah athii to haeh o moe, Levi acaengnawk mah ahin to khok o.
12 They removed the burnt offerings, that they might give them according to the divisions of the fathers’ houses of the children of the people, to offer to Yahweh, as it is written in the book of Moses. They did the same with the cattle.
Mosi ih cabu thungah tarik ih lok baktih toengah, imthung takoh maeto mah Angraeng khaeah hmai angbawnhaih paek hanah, moi hoi maitaw tae to kalah ah pahoe pae o.
13 They roasted the Passover with fire according to the ordinance. They boiled the holy offerings in pots, in cauldrons, and in pans, and carried them quickly to all the children of the people.
Sakzong ih daan baktih toengah loihhaih poihkung ah boh ih tuu moinawk to hmai pakhaem o; kalah ciimcai moinawk loe long laom, laom pui hoi camphaek laom hoiah thongh o moe, kaminawk hanah karangah pazet o.
14 Afterward they prepared for themselves and for the priests, because the priests the sons of Aaron were busy with offering the burnt offerings and the fat until night. Therefore the Levites prepared for themselves and for the priests the sons of Aaron.
To tiah a sak o pacoengah angmacae hoi qaimanawk hanah thongh o; Aaron ih caa qaimanawk loe hmai angbawnhaih hoi moithawk angbawnhaih to khoving khoek to a sak o; Levi acaengnawk loe angmacae han hoi Aaron ih caa qaimanawk hanah to tiah toksak pae o.
15 The singers, the sons of Asaph, were in their place, according to the commandment of David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the king’s seer; and the gatekeepers were at every gate. They didn’t need to depart from their service, because their brothers the Levites prepared for them.
David hoi siangpahrang ih tahmaa, Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun mah sak ih baktih toengah, ampui Levi acaengnawk mah hmuen to sak pae o boeh pongah, Asaph ih acaeng laasah kaminawk loe angmacae ih ahmuen ah oh o; khongkha toep kaminawk loe angmacae ih tok to caeh o taak ai, khongkha to toep o boih; angmacae ih nawkamya Levi acaengnawk mah nihcae han kangaih tok to sak pae o.
16 So all the service of Yahweh was prepared the same day, to keep the Passover, and to offer burnt offerings on Yahweh’s altar, according to the commandment of King Josiah.
To pongah Josiah siangpahrang mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, loihhaih poih to a sak o, Angraeng ih hmaicam nuiah hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah, to na niah Angraeng ih tok to sak o roep.
17 The children of Israel who were present kept the Passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.
To ah kaom Israel caanawk loe loihhaih poih to sak o moe, taeh thuh ai ih takaw caakhaih poih doeh ni sarihto thung a sak o.
18 There was no Passover like that kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet, nor did any of the kings of Israel keep such a Passover as Josiah kept—with the priests, the Levites, and all Judah and Israel who were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Tahmaa Samuel dung ah Israel prae thungah to baktih loihhaih poih to sah o vai ai; mi kawbaktih Israel siangpahrang mah doeh Josiah baktiah, loihhaih poih to qaimanawk, Levi acaengnawk, Judah kaminawk, Israel kaminawk, Jerusalem ah kaom kaminawk hoi nawnto sah vai ai.
19 This Passover was kept in the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah.
Hae loihhaih poih loe Josiah siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hatlai tazetto naah sak o.
20 After all this, when Josiah had prepared the temple, Neco king of Egypt went up to fight against Carchemish by the Euphrates, and Josiah went out against him.
Josiah mah im to sak pacoengah, Izip siangpahrang Neko loe Euphrates vapui taeng ih Karkhemish vangpui to tuk hanah angzoh, Josiah siangpahrang loe Neko to pakaa hanah caeh.
21 But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, “What have I to do with you, you king of Judah? I come not against you today, but against the house with which I have war. God has commanded me to make haste. Beware that it is God who is with me, that he not destroy you.”
Izip siangpahrang mah, Aw Judah siangpahrang, nang hoi kai salakah tih angzoeh angaekhaih maw oh? Vaihniah nang tuk hanah kang zo ai, ka misa imthung takoh ni tuk hanah kang zoh; Angraeng mah karangah misatuk hanah ang thuih boeh: kai hoi nawnto kaom Angraeng to tavet hmah, anih mah dan na paek moeng tih, tiah laicaeh patoeh moe, a thuisak.
22 Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and didn’t listen to the words of Neco from the mouth of God, and came to fight in the valley of Megiddo.
Toe Josiah mah angqoi taak ai; Neko mah thuih ih Angraeng ih lok to tahngai ai; misatuk hanah minawk kalah baktiah angsak moe, Meggido azawn ah misatuk hanah a caeh.
23 The archers shot at King Josiah; and the king said to his servants, “Take me away, because I am seriously wounded!”
Misa angtuk o naah kalii kah kop kaminawk mah Josiah siangpahrang to kah o; to naah anih mah a tamnanawk khaeah, Karangah na caeh o haih lai ah; kai loe kanung parai ahmaa ka caak boeh, tiah a naa.
24 So his servants took him out of the chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he died, and was buried in the tombs of his fathers. All Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.
To pongah a tamnanawk mah hrangleeng thung hoiah lak o moe, hrangleeng kalah maeto nuiah phawh o; anih to Jerusalem ah caeh o haih moe, to ah duek; ampanawk ih taprong maeto ahmuen ah anih to aphum o. Judah hoi Israel kaminawk boih mah anih to qah o haih.
25 Jeremiah lamented for Josiah, and all the singing men and singing women spoke of Josiah in their lamentations to this day; and they made them an ordinance in Israel. Behold, they are written in the lamentations.
Jeremiah mah Josiah to qah haih; vaihni ni khoek to laasah nongpata hoi nongpanawk mah Josiah qahhaih laa to sak o pongah, Israel prae thungah Israel caanawk ih atawk maeto ah oh; to kawng to qahhaih cabu thungah tarik o.
26 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah and his good deeds, according to that which is written in Yahweh’s law,
Josiah siangpahrang ah oh nathung sak ih hmuennawk, a sak ih kahoih hmuennawk loe Angraeng ih lok cabu thungah tarik ih baktih toengah,
27 and his acts, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
a toksakhaih amtonghaih hoi boeng khoek to, Israel hoi Judah siangpahrangnawk ih cabu thungah tarik o.
