2 Chronicles 24
1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.
Joash teh kum sari touh a pha navah, siangpahrang a tawk. Jerusalem vah kum 40 touh a bawi. A manu e min teh Beersheba tami Zibiah doeh.
2 Joash did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
Vaihma Jehoiada a hring nah thung, Joash teh BAWIPA mithmu hnokahawi a sak.
3 Jehoiada took for him two wives, and he became the father of sons and daughters.
Jehoiada ni a yu kahni touh a la pouh teh, ca tongpanaw hoi napuinaw a sak.
4 After this, Joash intended to restore the LORD’s house.
Hathnukkhu BAWIPA im pathoup hanelah, Joash ni a kâcai.
5 He gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather money to repair the house of your God from all Israel from year to year. See that you expedite this matter.” However the Levites did not do it right away.
Vaihmanaw hoi Levihnaw a kaw teh, Judah ram e khonaw koe cet awh nateh, kum tangkuem Cathut im pathoup nahanelah, Isarelnaw koe tangka cawng awh. Karanglah tang kâroe awh, telah atipouh. Hatei, Levihnaw ni karanglah kâroe pouh hoeh.
6 The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, “Why have not you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, for the Tent of the Testimony?”
Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang ni vaihma bawi e Jehoiada a kaw teh ahni koe, bangkongmaw Levihnaw hah BAWIPA e san Mosi hoi Isarel rangpuinaw lawkpanuesaknae lukkareiim hanelah cawng e tamuk hah Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem e taminaw koe na dei pouh hoeh vaw.
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up God’s house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the LORD’s house to the Baals.
Napui kathout Athaliah e capanaw ni, Cathut im koung a raphoe awh toe. Hahoi BAWIPA im dawk e hnopai pueng hai Baal koevah a poe awh toe, telah atipouh.
8 So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside at the gate of the LORD’s house.
Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang kâpoelawk patetlah thingkong buet touh a sak awh teh, BAWIPA im alawilah longkha teng a hruek awh.
9 They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.
Hahoi kahrawngum vah Cathut e san Mosi ni, Isarelnaw tamuk cawng hanelah a dei e hah, BAWIPA hanelah koung a thokhai nahan, Judah ram pueng hoi Jerusalem vah a pathang awh.
10 All the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had filled it.
Hat navah, ukkungnaw hoi taminaw pueng teh a lunghawi awh teh, tangka teh a thokhai awh. Koung a cawng awh hoehnahlan vah, thingkong dawk ka paphnawn lah a pâseng awh toe.
11 Whenever the chest was brought to the king’s officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the chief priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
Levihnaw ni siangpahrang kabawmkungnaw koe thingkong a thokhai awh teh, tangka moikapap ao tie a panue awh torei teh, siangpahrang e ca kathutkungnaw hoi vaihma bawi kabawmkungnaw ni, thingkong dawk e tangka a la awh hnukkhu, thingkong teh amae hmuen koe bout a hruek awh. Hottelah hnintangkuem a sak awh teh, tangka moikapap a pâtung awh.
12 The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the LORD’s house. They hired masons and carpenters to restore the LORD’s house, and also those who worked iron and bronze to repair the LORD’s house.
Hahoi siangpahrang Jehoiada ni BAWIPA e im dawk thaw katawkkungnaw kut dawk a poe awh. BAWIPA e im pathoup nahanelah, talung kadeinaw hoi kutsakkathoumnaw a hlai awh teh, BAWIPA e im pathoup nahanelah, sum hoi rahum kahlunthainaw hai a hlai awh.
13 So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands. They set up God’s house as it was designed, and strengthened it.
Hottelah thaw katawkkungnaw ni thapatho lahoi na tawk awh dawkvah, Cathut im teh apasueke boiboe lah a pathoup awh teh a caksak awh.
14 When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, from which were made vessels for the LORD’s house, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, including spoons and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the LORD’s house continually all the days of Jehoiada.
A cum awh torei teh kacawie tangkanaw pueng teh, siangpahrang hoi Jehoiada koe a thokhai awh. Hote tangka hoi BAWIPA e im dawk thaw tawk nahanelah, hnopai, thueng nahanelah hnopai hoi pacen, sui hoi ngun manang naw lah a sak awh. Hottelah Jehoiada a hringyung thung teh BAWIPA im dawk hmaisawi thuengnae pout laipalah pou a sak awh.
15 But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died. He was one hundred thirty years old when he died.
Hatei Jehoiada teh a matawng poung toung dawkvah a due. A due navah a kum 130 touh a pha.
16 They buried him in David’s city among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
Isarelnaw thung dawk Cathut hoi a im dawk hawinae a sak kecu dawk Devit khopui dawk siangpahrangnaw koe a pakawp awh.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada, the princes of Judah came and bowed down to the king. Then the king listened to them.
Jehoiada a due hnukkhu, Judah kahrawikungnaw a tho awh teh, siangpahrang koe a tabo awh. Hahoi siangpahrang ni ahnimae lawk a tarawi pouh.
18 They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and the idols, so wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
Hottelah mintoenaw e Cathut im a hnamthun takhai awh teh, thingmeikaphawk hoi meikaphawk a bawk awh. Hahoi a yon awh dawkvah, Judahnaw hoi Jerusalem lathueng lungkhueknae a pha.
19 Yet he sent prophets to them to bring them again to the LORD, and they testified against them; but they would not listen.
Hatei, BAWIPA koe bout bankhai hanelah, profetnaw a patoun teh a yonae a panue sak ei, ngai awh hoeh.
20 The Spirit of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, “God says, ‘Why do you disobey the LORD’s commandments, so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.’”
Hahoi vaihma Jehoiada e capa Zekhariah koe Cathut e Muitha teh a pha. Ahni ni rangpuinaw koe a kangdue teh ahnimouh koe, Cathut ni hettelah a dei, bangkongmaw hawinae na hmu awh hoeh hanelah BAWIPA e kâpoelawknaw na tapoe awh. BAWIPA na pahnawt awh dawkvah, ahni ni hai nangmouh na pahnawt awh telah atipouh.
21 They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the LORD’s house.
Hatdawkvah, ahni a taran awh teh, siangpahrang ni kâpoe e patetlah BAWIPA im kalupnae thung talung hoi koung kadout lah a dei awh.
22 Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, “May the LORD look at it, and repay it.”
Hottelah, siangpahrang Joash ni a na pa Jehoiada e lungpatawnae pouk laipalah, a capa a thei pouh. A due han toteh, BAWIPA ni a pouk vaiteh moi a pathung han doeh telah a ti.
23 At the end of the year, the army of the Syrians came up against him. They came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all their plunder to the king of Damascus.
Hote kum abaw navah, Siria ransanaw ni a tuk awh. Judah ram hoi Jerusalem a kâen awh teh, kahrawikungnaw pueng koung a thei awh teh, Damaskas siangpahrang koevah, lawphno pueng koung a patawn awh.
24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on Joash.
Judahnaw ni mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut a pahnawt kecu dawk tami moiapap eiteh, kayounca e Siria ransanaw e kut dawk BAWIPA ni a poe teh, Sirianaw ni Joash koe runae a pha sak.
25 When they had departed from him (for they left him seriously wounded), his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and killed him on his bed, and he died. They buried him in David’s city, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.
Hahoi puenghoi a pataw lahunnah a ban takhai hnukkhu, amamouh letlang ni vaihma Jehoiada e thipaling kecu dawk a sannaw ni a kâcoun awh teh, ikhun dawk a i lahun nah a thei awh. Hatdawkvah, ahni teh a due. Devit khopui dawk a pakawp awh. Hatei, siangpahrangnaw e phuen koe pakawm awh hoeh.
26 These are those who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
Ahni ka thet e tami teh Ammon napui Shimeath capa Zabad hoi Moab napui Shimrith capa Jehozabad doeh.
27 Now concerning his sons, the greatness of the burdens laid on him, and the rebuilding of God’s house, behold, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
Hottelah a capanaw e kong hoi amae kong dei e naw hoi Cathut im kahawicalah bout pathoupnae kong naw teh, khenhaw! siangpahrangnaw e kong caisaknae cauk dawk thut lah ao nahoehmaw. Hahoi, a yueng lah a capa Amaziah ni a bawi.
