< 2 Kings 17 >

1 In the twelfth year of Ahaz, king of Judah, Hoshea, the son of Elah, became king over Israel in Samaria, ruling for nine years.
Judah gam’ah Ahaz lengpan lengvai ahom kal kum somleni alhin chun, Israel gam’ah Elah chapa Hoshea in lengvai ahinhom pantan ahi. Aman Samaria khopia kum ko vai anahom’in ahi.
2 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, though not like the kings of Israel before him.
Aman Pakai mitmu’n thilse jing anabollin ahi. Ahinlah a masanga Israelte lengho banglom lom’in ana phamo sampon ahi.
3 Against him came up Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, and Hoshea became his servant and sent him offerings.
Assyria lengpa Shalmaneser in Hoshea lengpa chu gal ahinsat khumtan ahileh, Assyriate chun Hoshea chu namna in kai gihtah ana pohsah’un ahi.
4 But Hoshea's broken faith became clear to the king of Assyria because he had sent representatives to So, king of Egypt, and did not send his offering to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: so the king of Assyria had him shut up in prison and put in chains.
Ahinlah Hoshea in kumseh a apeh’u kai chu anapedan, chule Egypt lengpa So kitipa toh kithoa Assyriate thaneina a kona hoidoh ding aguh in tohgon ana neiyin ahi. Ahinlah hiche aguh a tohgon anei chu amudoh phat’in Assyria lengpan Hoshea chu ana mandoh in songkulla akoitan ahi.
5 Then the king of Assyria went through all the land and came up to Samaria, shutting it in with his forces for three years.
Hiche jouchun Assyria lenpan agam pumpi chu ahinsat-tan ahile, Samaria chu kum thum sung jen aumtauvin ahi.
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria took Samaria, and took Israel away to Assyria, placing them in Halah and in Habor on the river Gozan, and in the towns of the Medes.
Ajonan Hoshea vaihom kum ko alhin chun Samaria alhutan, Israel mipite chu Assyria gam'a sohchang in analut tauvin ahi. Amaho chu Gozan munna Habor vadung pang jui'a Halah gam chenna munho a chun ana chensah’u ahi. Hichu Medes khopi ho khat ahi.
7 And the wrath of the Lord came on Israel because they had done evil against the Lord their God, who took them out of the land of Egypt from under the yoke of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and had become worshippers of other gods,
Hitobanga Israelte chunga gimgentheina ahunglhun hi amahon semthu pathen ana ho’jeh'u, chule Egypt lengpa Pharaoh thaneina a kona ahin huhdohpa chujong leh hiche Egypt’a kona ahin puidoh uva Pakai Pathen douna chonset ana boljeh’u ahi.
8 Living by the rules of the nations whom the Lord had sent out from before the children of Israel.
Amahon Pakaiyin amaho masanga ananodoh peh’u Pathen neilou nam mite chondan analah uva chuleh Israel lengte phabep’in ahin pohlut’u chonna ho anajui jeh’u ahi.
9 And the children of Israel did secretly against the Lord their God things which were not right, building high places for themselves in all their towns, from the tower of the watchmen to the walled town.
Israel mipi loikhat’in, Pakai a Pathen’u deiloulam le doumah thil tamtah aguh’a anabol jeh’u ahi. Amahon Pathen neiloute, doiphungho, khovetna mun neo apatna khopi pal lenpen chung geija amahon kisem doh’uva akitundoh’u ahi.
10 They put up pillars of stone and wood on every high hill and under every green tree:
Lhangvum dung jouse le thingnadum noi dung jousea doikhom hole Asherah doiphung ana kitun’un ahi.
11 Burning their offerings in all the high places, as those nations did whom the Lord sent away from before them; they did evil things, moving the Lord to wrath;
Amahon namdangte maicham phung dung’a gimnamtui alhut nam’un, agamsung a Pakaiyin adeldohsa nam mite chonchan jouse ajom tauvin ahi. Hiti chun Israelten setna tampi anabollun, Pakai lung ahansah ji jin ahi.
12 And they made themselves servants of disgusting things, though the Lord had said, You are not to do this.
Pakaiyin kichehtah’a avel vella aseipeh chule gihsalna avel vella anapeh vangun, semthu doi ana hou jing tauvin ahi.
13 And he gave witness to Israel and Judah, by every prophet and seer, saying, Come back from your evil ways, and do my orders and keep my rules, and be guided by the law which I gave to your fathers and sent to you by my servants the prophets.
Pakaiyin avellin themgao hole michingho anasollin Israelte leh Judahte chu avel vellin hilchahna anapen ahi, “Nathilse bol nauva konin hung kileheijun, kathupeh hole ka dansem ho, kathemgaote le kalhachate mangcha a napu napateo kana thupeh hohi jui unlang ngaiyun,” ati.
14 And they did not give ear, but became stiff-necked, like their fathers who had no faith in the Lord their God.
Ahinlah Israelten ana nahsah pouvin ahi. Apu apa teuvin, Pakai a Pathen’u tahsan ding ana noplou bang bangun along u ana tah’un ahi.
15 And they went against his rules, and the agreement which he made with their fathers, and his laws which he gave them; they gave themselves up to things without sense or value, and became foolish like the nations round them, of whom the Lord had said, Do not as they do.
Amahon adanthule apu apateutoh ana sem kitepna hochu apaidoh’un chuleh ana hilchahna ho jeng jong ana nasah pouvin ahi. Amahon pannabei doiho pou ana hou’un amahotah jong manlou asohgam tauve. Amahon avel uva cheng namdangte chondan alauvin Pakai thupeh jui louvin anot thap tauvin ahi.
16 And turning their backs on all the orders which the Lord had given them, they made for themselves images of metal, and the image of Asherah, worshipping all the stars of heaven and becoming servants to Baal.
Amahon Pakai a Pathen’u thupeh jouse apaidoh un, thih ahal jol’un bongnou ni lim asem tho uvin, Asherah doikhum’ah atungdoh un, Baal doi chuleh vanna ahsi teho pou ana hou un ahi.
17 And they made their sons and their daughters go through the fire, and they made use of secret arts and unnatural powers, and gave themselves up to doing evil in the eyes of the Lord, till he was moved to wrath.
Amahon chiding namdangte doi houna din achapateu leh achanuteu pumgo thilto din kilhainan anei jiuvin ahi. Chunle amahon gaothem ho donga phun themho asansah jiu, Pakai mitmua thildihlou bolna kipumpeh jeng ahiuvin, hijeh a chu Pakai chu aphin lunghang’u ahi.
18 So the Lord was very angry with Israel, and his face was turned away from them: only the tribe of Judah kept its place.
Pakai chu Israelte chung’a alunghan val jeh’in, Aman ama hochu amitmua konin ana tolmang gamtan ahi. Judah changseh bou gamsunga ana chensah in ahi.
19 (But even Judah did not keep the orders of the Lord their God, but were guided by the rules which Israel had made.
Ahivangin Judahte jengin jong Pakai thupeh ananit nompouvin, Israelten anaphudoh’u chondan phalou ngen chu anajom’un ahi.
20 So the Lord would have nothing to do with all the offspring of Israel, and sent trouble on them, and gave them up into the hands of their attackers, till he had sent them away from before his face.)
Pakaiyin Israel chilhahte chengse chu abonchan ana paidoh’in. Hiti chun ama mitmua kona apaidoh kahsen agal mite khut’ah anapehdoh in asugenthei in ahi.
21 For Israel was broken off from the family of David, and they made Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, king, who, driving them away from the laws of the Lord, made them do a great sin.
Pakaiyin Israelte chu David leng gam'a kona alhekeh jouvin, amahon alengpau dingin Nebat chapa Jeroboam chu ana kilhen tauvin ahi. Ahinlah Jeroboam in Israelte chu Pakai ajen ule ajui nauva konin anapuidoh in, chonsetna nasatah anatohdoh sahtan ahi.
22 And the children of Israel went on with all the sins which Jeroboam did; they did not keep themselves from them;
Hiti chun Israelten Jeroboam nung ajuiyun, thilse lampia chun akimangcha un, achonset nauva konin ahung kiheidoh tapouvin ahi.
23 Till the Lord put Israel away from before his face, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So Israel was taken away from their land to Assyria, to this day.
Themgao hon ana gih na bang bangun, Pakaiyin Israelte chu amitmua akona apaidoh kahsen anga dehpouvin ahi. Hijeh chun Israelte hi agamsung uva kona paidoh’a um uva tuni geija Assyria gam'a sohchang’a umden jing ahitauve.
24 Then the king of Assyria took men from Babylon and from Cuthah and Avva and Hamath and Sepharvaim, and put them in the towns of Samaria in place of the children of Israel; so they got Samaria for their heritage, living in its towns.
Assyria lengpan Babylon gam'a kon, Cuthah khole Avva khoa kon, Hamath khoa konle Sepharvaim khoa konin, mihem tampi ahin tollin amaho chu Samaria khopi dung’a chun Israel chate khellin achensah tai. Amaho hin Samaria gamsung alouvin, akhopi dung jousea acheng tauve.
25 Now when first they were living there they did not give worship to the Lord. So the Lord sent lions among them, causing the death of some of them.
Ahinlah hiche gamchom mi ahung chenglut hohin ahunglut til’un, Pakai Pathen ahou lou u ahi, hijeh chun Pakaiyin alah uvah keipi bahkai ahin sollin mi phabep anathat’in ahi.
26 So they said to the king of Assyria, The nations whom you have taken as prisoners and put in the towns of Samaria, have no knowledge of the way of the god of the land: so he has sent lions among them, causing their death, because they have no knowledge of his way.
Hijeh chun Assyria lengpa kom’ah thu athot’un, “Nangin Samaria khopi sungho a cheng dinga nahin sollut mipiho chun hiche gamsung mite Pathen houle chondanteho ahetlou jeh un, Pathen in amaho sugam dingin keipi bahkai ahinsol lut’in ahi, ajeh chu amahon Pakai ahoudan u adihloujeh ahi.
27 Then the king of Assyria gave orders, saying, Send there one of the priests whom you took away, and let him be living there and teaching the people the way of the god of the land.
Assyria lengpa chun hitihin thu apen, “Soh’a kikaimang ho lah thempu khat chu Samaria khopia le-solpeh’un. Amachu ahung chenglut thahho lah’a chengin tin, agamsung mite Pathen houjidan le chondan teho gahil hen,” ati.
28 So one of the priests whom they had taken away as a prisoner from Samaria came back, and, living in Beth-el, became their teacher in the worship of the Lord.
Hiti chun Samaria kona hung sohchang thempu khatchu Bethel ah alesollut’un, aman achenglut thah-ho chu Pakai houdan chu ahil pantan ahi.
29 And every nation made gods for themselves, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in the towns where they were living.
Ahinlah gamchom mi ahon honna hunglut hochun ama ama Pathen cheh chu akihoujom jingun ahi. Achennau khopi khatna konin khopi khat’ah Samaria mipiten ana tundoh’u doi phung hoa chun milim semthu hochu akikoijun ahi.
30 The men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
Babylon’a kona hunghon, Succoth-benoth pathen chu ahouvun, Cuthah a kona hungho chun Nergal pathen chu ahouvun, chuleh Hamath na kona hunghon Ashima ahouvun ahi.
31 The Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites gave their children to be burned in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
Avvit ten jong Nibhaz le Tartak pathen ahouvun, chuleh Sepharvaim akona hunghon achateu chu apathen’u Adrammelech leh Anammelech hou’nan pumgo thilto in akatdoh jiuvin ahi.
32 So they went on worshipping the Lord, and made for themselves, from among all the people, priests for the high places, to make offerings for them in the houses of the high places.
Hitobanga ahung chenglut thah hohin Pakai jeng ven ahou jing nauve, alah uva konin thempu akilhengdoh un, chiding namdangte doiphunga doi hounan hiche thempu ho chu mido a dingin apansah jiuvin ahi.
33 They gave worship to the Lord, but they gave honour to their gods like the nations did from whom they had been taken as prisoners.
Chule amahon Pakai chu ahoujeng vang’un, ahung kondoh nau gamsunga kihou pathente jong adan dungjuiyin ama ama indoi cheh jong akihou thouvun, chondan hochu achepi jing nalaijun ahi.
34 So to this day they go on in their old ways, not worshipping the Lord or keeping his orders or his ways or the law and the rule which the Lord gave to the children of Jacob, to whom he gave the name Israel;
Hiche achondan lui hochu tunikho geijin achepiuvin ahi. Amahon Pakai chu ahoutah tah pouvin, amavang tumasang a achonnau chu ajui-nalaijun ahi. Amahon Pakaiyin Israel tia amin anakhelpeh Jacob chihlhahte anapeh thupeh hole ajuidiuva dan ana sempeh hochu khatcha jong ajui pouvin ahi.
35 And the Lord made an agreement with them and gave them orders, saying, You are to have no other gods; you are not to give worship to them or be their servants or make them offerings:
Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Jacob chilhahte hochu kitepna ana semin, ajui diuvin thupeh hitin anapei, “Pathen dang hou hih’un ahilouleh a ang’a jong nakun theilou diu, jen-jong najen theilou diu, akom’uva jong kilhaina nabol theilou heldiu ahi,” ati.
36 But the Lord, who took you out of the land of Egypt with his great power and his outstretched arm, he is your God, to whom you are to give worship and make offerings:
Ahinlah, “Abantha hanta thanei tah’a Egypt akona nahin puidoh pa Pakai amabou chu nahoudiu, Ama angsung’a bou nakun diu chule kilhina jong ama koma bou nasem diu ahi.
37 And the rules and the orders and the law which he put in writing for you, you are to keep and do for ever; you are to have no other gods.
Nangho dia kipe danho le chonchan dingho chule thupeh hochu phat tinle phatecha a nanit jing thei nading un phatseh in chingtheiyun lang semthu pathen kitiho nahou louhel dingu ahi.
38 And you are to keep in memory the agreement which I have made with you; and you are to have no other gods.
Keiman nangho toh kasem kitepna chu sumil hihbeh un chujongleh pathen dang kiti poupou nahou theilou helding’u ahi.
39 And you are to give worship to the Lord your God; for it is he who will give you salvation from the hands of all who are against you.
Nanghon Pakai na Pathen bou nahoudiu ajeh chu Ama chun nagalmi houva kona nahin huhdoh diu ahi,” ati.
40 But they gave no attention, but went on in their old way.
Ahinlah mipite chun hiche thu kisei hochu ana nahsah pouvin, achonnau masa dungjui chun achomjom jingun ahi.
41 So these nations, worshipping the Lord, still were servants to the images they had made; their children and their children's children did the same; as their fathers did, so do they, to this day.
Hitihin hiche ahung chenglut thah hochun Pakai chu ahou vangun amaho milim doiho jong chu alhadeh pouvin ahi. Tuni changei hin achilhah teuvin jong achepi jingun ahi.
