2 Manghai 16

1 Remaliah capa Pekah kah kum hlai rhih kum vaengah Judah manghai Jotham capa Ahaz khaw manghai van.

In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

2 Ahaz amah he kum kul a lo ca vaengah manghai. Jerusalem ah kum hlai rhuk manghai dae a napa David bangla a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem a saii moenih.

Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he did not do that which was right in the eyes of the LORD his God, like David his father.

3 Israel manghai rhoek kah longpuei ah pongpa tih namtom kah tueilaehkoi la a ca pataeng hmai dongah a kat sak. BOEIPA loh amih te Israel ca mikhmuh lamkah ni a haek coeng.

But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yes, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the nations, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.

4 Hmuensang neh som ah khaw, thing hing cungkuem hmuiah khaw a nawn tih a phum.

He sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

5 Aram manghai Rezin neh Israel manghai Remaliah capa Pekah loh caemtloek la Jerusalem a paan rhoi. Te vaengah Ahaz te a dum rhoi dae a vathoh ham tah coeng rhoi pawh.

Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.

6 Te vaeng tue ah Aram manghai Rezin loh Aram hamla Elath te a lat pah. Elath lamkah Judah te a biit dongah Arammi neh Edom loh Elath la puen uh tih tahae khohnin duela pahoi kho a sak uh.

At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Eilat to Aram, and drove the Jews from Eilat; and the Arameans came to Eilat, and lived there, to this day.

7 Ahaz loh Assyria manghai Tiglathpileser taengah puencawn a tueih tih, “Kai he na sal neh na ca ni. Halo lamtah kai he Aram manghai kut lamkah neh kai aka tlai thil Israel manghai kut lamkah n'khang laeh,” a ti nah.

So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath Pileser king of Assyria, saying, "I am your servant and your son. Come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Aram, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me."

8 Te vaengah Ahaz loh cak neh sui khaw, BOEIPA im neh manghai im thakvoh khuikah a hmuh boeih te a loh tih Assyria manghai taengah kapbaih la a pat.

Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.

9 Anih ol te Assyria manghai loh a ngai pah dongah Assyria manghai loh Damasku te a paan. Te te a buem van neh a khuikah rhoek te Kir la a poelyoe tih Rezin te khaw a duek sak.

The king of Assyria listened to him; and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried its people captive to Kir, and killed Rezin.

10 Manghai Ahaz te Assyria manghai Tiglathpileser doe ham Damasku la pawk. Te vaengah Damasku kah hmueihtuk te a hmuh. Te dongah manghai Ahaz loh khosoih Uriah taengla hmueihtuk kah mueiloh neh a kutngo cungkuem dongkah a muei te a pat.

King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath Pileser king of Assyria, and saw the altar that was at Damascus; and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the cohen the fashion of the altar, and its pattern, according to all its workmanship.

11 Te dongah Damasku lamkah manghai Ahaz loh a cungkuem a pat pah vanbangla khosoih Uriah loh hmueihtuk te a sak tih Damasku lamkah manghai Ahaz a mael hlan ah khosoih Uriah long khaw ana saii pah van.

Urijah the cohen built an altar: according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus, so Urijah the cohen made it for the coming of king Ahaz from Damascus.

12 Damasku lamkah manghai a pawk vaengah tah manghai loh hmueihtuk te a hmuh. Te dongah manghai loh hmueihtuk taengla tawn uh tih a sola luei.

When the king had come from Damascus, the king saw the altar: and the king drew near to the altar, and offered on it.

13 Te phoeiah a hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang te a phum. A tuisi te a doeng tih rhoepnah thii te hmueihtuk dongah amah la a haeh.

He burnt his burnt offering and his meal offering, and poured his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings, on the altar.

14 BOEIPA mikhmuh kah rhohum hmueihtuk te khaw im hmai lamkah hmueihtuk laklo neh BOEIPA im laklo lamloh a puen tih tlangpuei hmueihtuk kaep ah a khueh.

The bronze altar, which was before the LORD, he brought from the forefront of the house, from between his altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of his altar.

15 Manghai Ahaz loh khosoih Uriah te a uen, a uen tih, “Mincang kah hmueihhlutnah neh hlaem kah khocang khaw, manghai kah hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang khaw, khohmuen pilnam cungkuem kah hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang khaw a tuisi khaw, hmueihtuk len dongah phum. Hmueihhlutnah thii boeih neh hmueih thii boeih tah a soah haeh thil. Tedae rhohum hmueihtuk tah kai ham aka hnukdawn la om saeh,” a ti nah.

King Ahaz commanded Urijah the cohen, saying, "On the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meal offering, and the king's burnt offering, and his meal offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meal offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice; but the bronze altar shall be for me to inquire by."

16 A cungkuem dongah manghai Ahaz kah a uen bangla khosoih Uriah loh a saii.

Urijah the cohen did so, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

17 Manghai Ahaz loh tungkho soenglong te a top tih te dong lamkah baeldung te khaw a khoe. Tuli te a dangkah rhohum vaito dong lamloh a hlak tih lung phaih dongah a khueh.

King Ahaz cut off the panels of the bases, and removed the basin from off them, and took down the sea from off the bronze oxen that were under it, and put it on a pavement of stone.

18 Hlamim khaw im taengkah a sak Sabbath hlamim tah Assyria manghai kah maelhmai kongah ni BOEIPA im kah manghai khuirhai voel la a det.

The covered way for the Sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry outside, turned he to the house of the LORD, because of the king of Assyria.

19 Ahaz kah ol noi neh a bi saii te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?

Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20 Ahaz te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Hezekiah te anih yueng la manghai.

Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.
