< 2 Kings 22 >

1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
Josiah hi leng ahungchan kum chun ama kum get bou anahi, chuleh aman Jerusalem’ah kum somthum le khat sung lengvai anahom’in ahi. Anuchu Jedidah ahin Bozkath kho a kona Adaiah chanu ahi.
2 He did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, and walked in all the ways of David his father, and didn’t turn away to the right hand or to the left.
Amahin Pathen mitmu’n thilpha jing anabollin, apu David khonung chu anajuijin ahi. Amahin thildih bolna dinga hin ana nungchon pon ahi.
3 In the eighteenth year of King Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to Yahweh’s house, saying,
Ama vaihom kum somle get alhinin, Josiah lengpan Meshullam tupa Azaliah chapa Shaphan chu thutanna munna lekhasunpa chu Pakai houin’ah ana sollin, hitihin thu anapen ahi,
4 “Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may count the money which is brought into Yahweh’s house, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.
“Nangma thempulen Hilkiah koma gache inlang, kot ngah pan Pakai houin'a mipi akona adondoh’u sum hochu simtoh henlang,
5 Let them deliver it into the hand of the workers who have the oversight of Yahweh’s house; and let them give it to the workers who are in Yahweh’s house, to repair the damage to the house,
Houin semphatna dinga vaihom ho khutna pelut hen, chutileh amahon Pakai houin sahphatna a natong ho chu athaman u peh nan mangcha theiyun te,” ati.
6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house.
Amahon thingthembol ho, insa ho chule songkhengthem ho goina’a amanchah theidiu ahi. Chujongleh Houin semphatna man dingin thing chuleh song kikhengsa ho chule adang houin semphatna dinga ngaichat umho chu chohnan mang’u hen,” ati.
7 However, no accounting shall be asked of them for the money delivered into their hand, for they deal faithfully.”
“Ahinla insahna dinga vaihom hochun akhut uva sum hunglut hochu ajat simtoh suhtoh le kholtoh angaipoi, ajeh chu amaho lungtheng cheh leh tahsan theidolcheh ahinauve,” ati.
8 Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in Yahweh’s house.” Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
Hilkiah thempu lenpa chun thutanna lekhasunpa kom’a chun, “Keiman Pakai houin sunga chun Dan buchu kamu dohtai,” ati. Hichun Hilkiah chun hiche lekhajol chu Shaphan kom’a apen aman jong asim’in ahi.
9 Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, “Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hands of the workmen who have the oversight of Yahweh’s house.”
Shaphan chu lengpa kom’a achen thilsoh ho chu alhut un, “Nanoija mopohna neiho chun Pakai houin na sum hunglut hochu houin’a natong hole toh lamkai ho khutna apelut tauve,” atiuvin.
10 Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me.” Then Shaphan read it before the king.
Shaphan chun lengpa chu aseipeh kit’in, “Hilkiah thempu pachun lekhajol khat eipe in ahi,” ati, hichun Shaphan in jong lengpa chu asim pehtan ahi.
11 When the king had heard the words of the book of the law, he tore his clothes.
Lengpa chun hiche Dan lekhabua kijih chu ajah phat chun, lungkham tah’in apon abot eh jengin ahi.
12 The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Achbor the son of Micaiah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying,
Hiche jouchun aman, Hilkiah thempupa, Shaphan chapa Ahikam, Micaiah chapa Acbor, Shaphan thutanna'a lekhasunpa chuleh Asaiah lengpa thumop a pang, amaho koma chun hiche thupeh apetan ahi.
13 “Go inquire of Yahweh for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found; for great is Yahweh’s wrath that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.”
“Nangho cheuvin lang keima leh Judah mipi ho jouse thalhengin Pakai kom’ah tao unlang, akimudoh lekahjol akijih thucheng ho chung chang hi gakhol toh tauvin. Ajeh chu ipu ipateu vin hiche lekhajol kijih thucheng ho dungjuijahi ana chonloujeh uvin, achung'uva Pakai lunghan na hi adeojah jing in ahi. Eihon itohtei diuva kisei i-toh diu thilho chu khatcha jong ihin tong pouvin ahi,” ati.
14 So Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her.
Hijeh chun Hilkiah thempupa, Ahikam, Achor, Shapahn leh Asaiah chu Jerusalem a chenna ding munthah lang achun Huldah themgaonu ga dongtoh dingin acheuvin ahi. Amanu hi Harhas chapa Tikvah chapa Shallum jinu, houin a vonchol vesuija pang ahi.
15 She said to them, “Yahweh the God of Israel says, ‘Tell the man who sent you to me,
Amanu chun amaho kom’ah chun, “Israel Pakai Pathen chun hitin aseije, kileuvin lang nahin solpa kom’a chun hitin aseijun,” ati.
16 “Yahweh says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.
“Hiche hi Pakai thusei ahi, Keiman hiche khopile amite chunga hi thohgimna kahin chuhsah ding ahi. Judah lengpan asimdoh hiche lekhajolla kijih ho chengsehi hung guilhung teiding ahi.
17 Because they have forsaken me and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’”
Ajeh chu kamiten eipaidoh tauvin, Pathen neilou namdangte semthu pathen ho kom’ah kilhaina gantha akatdoh tauvin, athilbol hojouse jeh in keima eilunghan sahlheh tauvin ahi. Hiche mun douna kalunghan hi deojah jeng ding ahin hiche chu chen-mitjou hilou ding ahi,” ati.
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Yahweh, tell him, “Yahweh the God of Israel says, ‘Concerning the words which you have heard,
“Ahinlah Pakai holding’a nahin sol uvah Judah lengpa kom’achun cheuvinlang hitin seipehun, Hichehi Israel Pathen Pakaiyin nathujah thupeh chungchanga chun hitin aseije,
19 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before Yahweh when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,’ says Yahweh.
Nangma nalungkham’in, nang le nang nakisunem lhehjingin, nangin hiche khopi le amite douna kasei hiche gamhi sapsetna aching ding chule ahomkeo hung hiding ahi, kitichu najah phat’in lungkham tah in napon nabottel jengin chuleh kisih tah in nakap jah jengin ahi. Hijehchun keiman tahbeh in nataona chu kajatai tin Pakaiyin aseije,” ati.
20 ‘Therefore behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the evil which I will bring on this place.’”’” So they brought this message back to the king.
“Hijeh chun keiman kateppeh hamsetna chu nangma nathi’a lungmong’a nakivui kahsen hinchuhsah taponge. Keiman hiche khopi chunga kachuhsah ding suhgimna chu nangin namutah louding ahi,” ati. Hiti chun amanu kona thupeh chu lengpa kom’ah ale pohlut peh tauvin ahi.
