2 Manghai 20

1 Te vaeng tue ah Hezekiah te tlo tih dalh duek. Te dongah tonghma Amoz capa Isaiah te anih taengla pawk tih, “BOEIPA loh he ni a thui, na imkhui te uen laeh, na duek vetih na hing voel mahpawh,” a ti nah.

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.

2 Te dongah a maelhmai te pangbueng taengla a hooi sak. Te phoeiah BOEIPA taengah thangthui tih,

Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying,

3 “Aw BOEIPA, na mikhmuh ah oltak neh, thinko rhuemtuet la pongpa te khaw, na mikhmuh ah a then ka saii te khaw poek mai,” a ti. Te vaengah Hezekiah kah a rhah mah hlawkhlawk rhap.

I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done [that which is] good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.

4 Isaiah loh khopuei vongup bangli a pha moenih. Te vaengah BOEIPA ol te anih taengla pawk tih,

And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

5 “Mael lamtah ka pilnam kah rhaengsang Hezekiah te thui pah. Na pa David kah Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Na thangthuinah te ka yaak tih na mikphi khaw ka hmuh coeng. Kai loh nang kang hoeih sak coeng ne, a thum hnin ah tah BOEIPA im la na cet bitni.

Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD.

6 Na khohnin te kum hlai nga kan thap vetih namah neh khopuei he khaw Assyria manghai kut lamloh kan huul ni. Khopuei he kamah ham neh ka sal David hamla ka tungaep ni,” a ti nah.

And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.

7 Te phoeiah Isaiah loh, “Thaibu thaidae lo lah,” a ti nah. A loh uh tangloeng tih buhlut a ben thil daengah koep hing.

And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid [it] on the boil, and he recovered.

8 Hezekiah loh Isaiah taengah, “BOEIPA loh kai he n'hoeih sak tih a thum hnin ah BOEIPA im la ka caeh ham miknoek te melae?” a ti nah.

And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What [shall be] the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day?

9 Te vaengah Isaiah loh, “He tah nang ham BOEIPA lamkah miknoek pawn ni. Ol a thui bangla khokhawn loh tangtlaeng parha a poeng ham khaw, tangtlaeng parha a mael ham khaw, BOEIPA loh a saii bitni,” a ti nah.

And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

10 Te vaengah Hezekiah, “Khokhawn loh tangtlaeng parha a poeng ham tah yoeikoek pawt nim? Te dongah khokhawn he tangtlaeng parha a hnuk la mael mai saeh,” a ti nah.

And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.

11 Tonghma Isaiah loh BOEIPA a khue thil tangloeng vaengah tah tangtlaeng dongkah khokhawn khaw mael tih Ahaz kah tangtlaeng dongah khaw a hnuk la tangtlaeng parha rhum van.

And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz.

12 Te vaeng tue ah Hezekiah a tloh te Babylon manghai Baladan capa Merodakbaldan loh a yaak dongah Hezekiah taengla capat neh khocang a pat.

At that time Berodach-baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.

13 Hezekiah loh amih te a yaak sak tih amih te a likmal im kah cak neh sui khaw, botui neh situi then khaw, a hnopai im khaw, a thakvoh khuikah a hmuh boeih khaw boeih a tueng. A im khui neh a khohung pum kah te Hezekiah loh amih a tueng pawh hno om pawh.

And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and [all] the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.

14 Te dongah tonghma Isaiah loh manghai Hezekiah te a paan tih amah taengah, “Tekah hlang rhoek loh balae a thui, me lamkah nim nang taengla ha pawk uh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Hezekiah loh, “Kho hla lamkah, Babylon lamkah ha pawk uh,” a ti nah.

Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, [even] from Babylon.

15 Te phoeiah, “Na im ah balae a hmuh?” a ti nah hatah Hezekiah loh, “Ka im kah a cungkuem he a hmuh uh. Ka thakvoh khuikah khaw amih ka tueng pawh hno pakhat khaw om pawh,” a ti nah.

And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All [the things] that [are] in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.

16 Tedae Isaiah loh Hezekiah te, “BOEIPA ol he hnatun lah.

And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD.

17 A tue ha pawk vetih na im kah a cungkuem neh na pa rhoek loh tahae khohnin due a kael te khaw Babylon la a phueih vetih paih mahpawh. BOEIPA loh ol a thui coeng.

Behold, the days come, that all that [is] in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

18 Namah lamloh aka thoeng na ca sak rhoek te khaw a khuen, a khuen uh vetih Babylon manghai bawkim ah imkhoem la om uh ni,” a ti nah.

And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

19 Tedae, “Rhoepnah neh uepomnah he kamah tue vaengah om mai pawt nim?” a ti dongah Hezekiah loh Isaiah te, “Na thui bangla BOEIPA ol tah then,” a ti nah.

Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good [is] the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, [Is it] not [good], if peace and truth be in my days?

20 Hezekiah kah ol noi neh a thayung thamal boeih khaw, tuibuem neh tuilong a saii tih khopuei la tui a pawk sak khaw, Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?

And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool, and a conduit, and brought water into the city, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

21 Hezekiah te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh phoeiah tah a capa Manasseh te anih yueng la manghai.

And Hezekiah slept with his fathers: and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.
