2 Kings 22

1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.

Josiah teh siangpahrang a tawk nah kum 8 touh boung a pha. Jerusalem vah kum 31 touh siangpahrang a tawk. A manu min teh Jedidah, Bozkath kho e Adaiah e canu doeh.

2 He did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, and walked in all the way of David his father, and did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

BAWIPA mithmu vah hnokahawi pou a sak. A na pa Devit ni a dawn e lamnaw pueng a dawn teh avoilah aranglah phen hoeh.

3 It happened in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Jehovah, saying,

Siangpahrang Josiah a bawi kum 18 nah hettelah ao. Meshullam capa, Azaliah capa cakathutkung Shaphan hah a patoun teh,

4 "Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may melt down the silver which is brought into the house of Jehovah, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.

vaihma kacue Hilkiah koevah cet nateh, longkha karingkungnaw ni taminaw koe a la awh teh BAWIPA e im dawk a thokhai e tangkanaw hah touk naseh.

5 Let them deliver it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of Jehovah; and let them give it to the workmen who are in the house of Jehovah, to repair the breaches of the house,

Hahoi, BAWIPA im dawk thaw katawknaw khenyawnkung koe poe nateh ahni ni a rawknae koe e pathoup nahanelah, BAWIPA im vah thaw katawknaw hoi,

6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house.

thingkong kasakkung, im kasakkung hoi im rawknae kapathoupkung naw ni, a rawknae pathoup nahane dawk thing hoi talung naw ran nahanelah poe naseh, telah BAWIPA im lah a patoun.

7 However there was no accounting made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand; for they dealt faithfully."

Hateiteh tangka ka sin sak e naw ni touk hai touk awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, yuemkamculah a hno awh.

8 Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, "I have found the scroll of the law in the house of Jehovah." Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.

Vaihma kacue Hilkiah ni cakathutkung Shaphan koevah, BAWIPA im dawk kâlawk cauk hah ka hmu telah atipouh. Hilkiah ni cauk teh Shaphan koe a poe teh ahni ni a touk.

9 Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, "Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of Jehovah."

Hahoi, cakathutkung Shaphan ni siangpahrang koe a cei teh, siangpahrang koevah kamthang ka thokhai. Na taminaw ni im dawk e tangka a hmu e naw hah BAWIPA e im dawk thaw katawknaw a poe toe telah atipouh.

10 Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, "Hilkiah the priest has delivered a scroll to me." Shaphan read it before the king.

Cakathutkung Shaphan ni, vaihma Hilkiah ni cauk na poe na a telah siangpahrang koe a dei pouh teh, Shaphan ni siangpahrang e hmalah a touk.

11 It happened, when the king had heard the words of the scroll of the law, that he tore his clothes.

Hahoi, siangpahrang ni kâlawk cauk dawk e lawk a thai toteh angki hah a phi.

12 The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying,

Siangpahrang ni, vaihma Hilkiah, Shaphan capa Ahikam, Mikaiah capa Akbor, cakathutkung Shaphan hoi siangpahrang e a san Asaiah koevah,

13 "Go inquire of Jehovah for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this scroll that is found; for great is the wrath of Jehovah that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this scroll, to do according to all that which is written concerning us."

kai hoi maya hoi Judahnaw pueng hanelah, hete cauk dawk hmu e lah ao patetlah BAWIPA koe na het pouh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, sak awh hane hete mintoenaw ni a sak hoeh kecu dawk maimouh tak dawk BAWIPA lungkhueknae teh hoe a len telah a ti.

14 So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her.

Hahoi vaihma Hilkiah, Ahikam, Akabor, Shaphan hoi Asaiah a hnicu khenyawnkung Harhas capa Tikvah capa, Shallum napui profet Huldah koevah a cei awh teh a kâhno awh. (Ahni teh Jerusalem kho hnuklah ao)

15 She said to them, "Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: 'Tell the man who sent you to me,

Napui ni ahnimouh koe Isarel BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei, kai koe kapatounkung koe,

16 "Thus says Jehovah, 'Look, I will bring disaster on this place, and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the scroll which the king of Judah has read.

khenhaw! hete hmuen koehai thoseh, athung e kho kasaknaw koehai thoseh, Judah siangpahrang ni cauk dawk a touk e rawkphainae patetlah rawkphainae hah a pha sak han.

17 Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it shall not be quenched.'"

Bangkongtetpawiteh, na ceitakhai awh teh cathut alouke koe hmuitui a thueng awh teh, a kut hoi a sak awh e ni ka lung na khuek sak awh dawkvah, hete hmuen koevah ka lungkhueknae hmai hoe ka pataw lah ka kaman sak vaiteh roum mahoeh toe.

18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Jehovah, thus you shall tell him, "Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: 'Concerning the words which you have heard,

Hatei kai koe hei hane a patoun e naw Judah siangpahrang koevah BAWIPA Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Na thai e lawk kong dawk,

19 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before Jehovah, when you heard what I spoke against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard you,' says Jehovah.

hete hmuen hoi athung kaawm e taminaw heh ka rawk e hoi thoebo e lah ao awh han telah ka dei e hah na thai toe. Na lung a nem teh BAWIPA hmalah kârahoum laihoi na angki na phi teh ka hmalah na ka dawkvah, kai ni hai na lawk ka thai telah, BAWIPA ni a ti.

20 'Therefore look, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, neither shall your eyes see all the disaster which I will bring on this place.'"'" They brought back this message to the king.

Hottelah, khenhaw! na mintoenaw koe na cei vaiteh na tangkom dawk karoumcalah na cei han. Hete hmuen koe rawknae kâhmo hane naw teh na mit ni koung hmawt mahoeh ati telah na dei pouh awh han telah atipouh. Hottelah kamthang teh siangpahrang koevah a dei pouh awh.
