2 Manghai 8
1 Elisha loh a capa aka hing huta te a voek tih, “Thoo lamtah namah neh na imkhui te cet uh laeh. Na bakuep nah noek ah bakuep mai. BOEIPA loh khokha ham a khue dongah khohmuen ah he kum rhih khuiah pai pueng ni,” a ti nah.
Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had restored to life, “Arise, you and your household; go and live as a foreigner wherever you can. For the LORD has decreed a seven-year famine, and it has already come to the land.”
2 Te dongah huta te thoo tih Pathen hlang kah ol bangla a saii. Amah neh a imkhui te a caeh puei tih Philisti khohmuen ah kum rhih bakuep.
So the woman had proceeded to do as the man of God had instructed. And she and her household lived as foreigners for seven years in the land of the Philistines.
3 Kum rhih kah a bawtnah a pha vaengah tah huta te Philisti khohmuen lamloh mael. Te vaengah cet tih amah imkhui ham neh a khohmuen ham te manghai taengah pang.
At the end of seven years, when the woman returned from the land of the Philistines, she went to the king to appeal for her house and her land.
4 Manghai loh Pathen hlang kah tueihyoeih Gehazi te a voek tih, “Elisha loh hno len cungkuem a saii te kai taengah tae laeh,” a ti nah.
Now the king had been speaking to Gehazi, the servant of the man of God, saying, “Please relate to me all the great things Elisha has done.”
5 Te dongah aka duek tangtae a hing sak tih a capa koep aka hing huta loh a imkhui ham neh a khohmuen ham manghai taengah a pang te khaw manghai taengah a tae pah. Te phoeiah Gehazi loh, “Ka boei manghai aw, he huta he ni a capa Elisha loh a hing sak pah.
And Gehazi was telling the king how Elisha had brought the dead back to life. Just then the woman whose son Elisha had revived came to appeal to the king for her house and her land. So Gehazi said, “My lord the king, this is the woman, and this is the son Elisha restored to life.”
6 Manghai loh huta te a dawt tih a taengah a tae pah vaengah tah manghai loh anih ham te imkhoem pakhat a khueh pah tih, “Khohmuen a hnoong khohnin lamloh tahae hil khohmuen kah a vueithaih cungkuem te anih taengah boeih mael laeh,” a ti nah.
When the king asked the woman, she confirmed it. So the king appointed for her an officer, saying, “Restore all that was hers, along with all the proceeds of the field from the day that she left the country until now.”
7 Elisha te Damasku la a caeh vaengah Aram manghai Benhadad te ana tlo. Te dongah a taengla a puen pah tih, “Pathen kah hlang he la ha pawk,” a ti nah.
Then Elisha came to Damascus while Ben-hadad king of Aram was sick, and the king was told, “The man of God has come here.”
8 Manghai loh Hazael te, “Na kut dongah khocang khuen lamtah Pathen kah hlang doe hamla cet laeh. Anih lamloh BOEIPA te dawt lah, he tloh lamloh ka hing venim?' dawt lah,” a ti nah.
So the king said to Hazael, “Take a gift in your hand, go to meet the man of God, and inquire of the LORD through him, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
9 Te dongah anih doe hamla Hazael te cet tih a kut dongah khocang neh Damasku kah thennah cungkuem te kalauk sawmli phueih la a khuen. Cet tih a mikhmuh ah a pai vaengah tah, “Na capa Aram manghai Benhadad loh kai he nang taengla n'tueih, 'He tloh lamloh ka hing aya?' a ti,” a ti nah.
So Hazael went to meet Elisha, taking with him a gift of forty camel loads of every good thing from Damascus. And he went in and stood before him and said, “Your son Ben-hadad king of Aram has sent me to ask, ‘Will I recover from this illness?’”
10 Elisha loh anih te, “Cet lamtah amah taengah, 'Na hing rhoe na hing ni, 'ti nah. Tedae BOEIPA loh kai n'tueng coeng dongah duek rhoe duek ni,” a ti nah.
Elisha answered, “Go and tell him, ‘You will surely recover.’ But the LORD has shown me that in fact he will die.”
11 Te phoeiah tah a maelhmai te a khueh, a khueh tih a yah hil Pathen kah hlang te a rhah pah.
Elisha fixed his gaze steadily on him until Hazael became uncomfortable. Then the man of God began to weep.
12 Te vaengah Hazael loh, “Ka boeipa balae tih na rhah,” a ti nah hatah, “Israel ca rhoek taengah boethae na saii ham khaw, amih kah hmuencak te hmai neh na hlae ham khaw, amih kah tongpang rhoek te cunghang neh na ngawn ham khaw, amih kah camoe rhoek te na til ham khaw, aka vawn te na boe ham khaw ka ming dongah,” a ti nah.
“Why is my lord weeping?” asked Hazael. “Because I know the evil you will do to the Israelites,” Elisha replied. “You will set fire to their fortresses, kill their young men with the sword, dash their little ones to pieces, and rip open their pregnant women.”
13 Tedae Hazael loh, “Na sal ui loh metlam hno len a saii eh?” a ti nah. Elisha loh, “Aram soah na manghai ham te BOEIPA loh kai n'tueng coeng,” a ti nah.
“But how could your servant, a mere dog, do such a monstrous thing?” said Hazael. And Elisha answered, “The LORD has shown me that you will be king over Aram.”
14 Elisha taeng lamloh nong tih a boei taengla a pawk vaengah anih te, “Elisha loh nang taengah balae a thui,” a ti nah. Te vaengah, “Kai taengah tah, ' Na hing rhoe na hing ni, ' a ti,” a ti nah.
So Hazael left Elisha and went to his master, who asked him, “What did Elisha say to you?” And he replied, “He told me that you would surely recover.”
15 Tedae a vuen pha vaengah himbai thah a loh tih tui khuila a nuem phoeiah manghai kah maelhmai te a dah pah. Te vaengah manghai te duek tih Hazael te anih yueng la manghai.
But the next day Hazael took a thick cloth, dipped it in water, and spread it over the king’s face. So Ben-hadad died, and Hazael reigned in his place.
16 Israel manghai Ahab capa Joram kah a kum nga dongkah, Judah manghai Jehoshaphat phoeiah tah, Judah manghai Jehoshaphat capa Jehoram te manghai.
In the fifth year of the reign of Joram son of Ahab over Israel, Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat succeeded his father as king of Judah.
17 Kum sawmthum kum nit a lo ca vaengah anih te manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum, kum rhet manghai.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years.
18 Anih khaw Israel manghai rhoek kah longpuei ah pongpa. Ahab canu te anih yuu la a om dongah Ahab imkhui kah a saii bangla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii.
And Jehoram walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done. For he married a daughter of Ahab and did evil in the sight of the LORD.
19 A sal David amah taengah a thui bangla anih ham neh a ca rhoek ham hnin takuem hmaithoi a khueh pah ham dongah ni BOEIPA loh Judah te phae a ngaih pawh.
Yet for the sake of His servant David, the LORD was unwilling to destroy Judah, since He had promised to maintain a lamp for David and his descendants forever.
20 Anih tue vaengah ni Edom loh Judah kut hmui lamkah boe a koek tih amamih ham manghai a manghai sak.
In the days of Jehoram, Edom rebelled against the hand of Judah and appointed their own king.
21 Joram te amah taengkah leng boeih neh Zair te a paan. Khoyin ah thoo tih Edom te a tloek. A kaepvai te amah neh leng mangpa rhoek loh a dum vaengah pilnam tah amah dap la rhaelrham coeng.
So Jehoram crossed over to Zair with all his chariots. When the Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, he rose up and attacked by night. His troops, however, fled to their homes.
22 Edom tah tahae khohnin duela Judah kut hmui lamloh boe a koek. Libnah khaw te vaeng tue ah boe a koek coeng.
So to this day Edom has been in rebellion against the hand of Judah. Likewise, Libnah rebelled at the same time.
23 Joram kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te khaw Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
As for the rest of the acts of Jehoram, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
24 Joram te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah David khopuei ah a napa rhoek taengah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Ahaziah te anih yueng la manghai.
And Jehoram rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David. And his son Ahaziah reigned in his place.
25 Israel manghai Ahab capa Joram kah kum hlai nit kum vaengah Judah manghai Jehoram capa Ahaziah te manghai van.
In the twelfth year of the reign of Joram son of Ahab over Israel, Ahaziah son of Jehoram became king of Judah.
26 Ahaziah he kum kul kum nit a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum khat manghai. A manu ming tah Israel manghai Omri canu Athaliah ni.
Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri king of Israel.
27 Anih he Ahab imkhui loh a cava nah dongah Ahab imkhui kah longpuei ah pongpa tih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah Ahab imkhui bangla boethae a saii.
And Ahaziah walked in the ways of the house of Ahab and did evil in the sight of the LORD like the house of Ahab, for he was a son-in-law of the house of Ahab.
28 Ahab capa Joram neh Ramothgilead kah Aram manghai Hazael te caem la a paan vaengah Arammi loh Joram te a ngawn.
Then Ahaziah went with Joram son of Ahab to fight against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth-gilead, and the Arameans wounded Joram.
29 Te dongah manghai Joram khaw Aram manghai Hazael a vathoh thil vaengkah Ramah ah Arammi loh a ngawn. Te hmasoe te hoeih sak ham Jezreel la mael. Tedae anih te a nue coeng dongah Judah manghai Jehoram capa Ahaziah khaw Ahab capa Joram te sawt hamla Jezreel la suntla.
So King Joram returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds that the Arameans had inflicted on him at Ramah when he fought against Hazael king of Aram. Then Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to Jezreel to visit Joram son of Ahab, because Joram had been wounded.
