< 2 Chronicles 14 >

1 So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In his days the land was quiet ten years.
Abijah he a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah anih te David khopuei ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Asa anih yueng la manghai. Anih tue vaengkah kum rha khui ah khohmuen khaw mong.
2 And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God:
Asa loh a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah hnothen neh a thuem ni a saii.
3 For he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and broke down the images, and cut down the groves:
Kholong hmueihtuk neh hmuensang te a khoe tih kaam te a phaek. Asherah khaw a top.
4 And commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.
A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA toem ham neh a olkhueng neh a olpaek vai ham khaw Judah rhoek te a uen.
5 Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the images: and the kingdom was quiet before him.
Judah khopuei tom lamkah hmuensang neh bunglawn te a khoe tih a mikhmuh ah a ram khaw mong.
6 And he built fortified cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because the LORD had given him rest.
Khohmuen te a mong dongah Judah kah kasam khopuei rhoek te a sak. Anih te BOEIPA loh a duem sak dongah te vaeng tue ah a taengah caemtloeknah om pawh.
7 Therefore he said to Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.
Te phoeiah Judah rhoek taengah, “Khopuei rhoek he sa uh sih lamtah vongtung neh rhaltoengim khaw, thohkhaih neh thohkalh khaw buen uh sih. Mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA te n'toem uh dongah khohmuen he mamih mikhmuh ah mong pueng. N'toem uh bangla a kaepvai taengah mamih he m'duem sak,” a ti nah. Te dongah a sak uh tangloeng tih thaihtak uh.
8 And Asa had an army of men that bore shields and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bore shields and drew bows, two hundred and eighty thousand: all these were mighty men of valour.
Judah lamkah photlinglen neh cai aka muk tatthai thawng ya thum te Asa taengah om bal. Benjamin lamloh photling aka bai tih lii aka phu, tatthai hlangrhalh boeih he thawng yahnih thawng sawmrhet lo.
9 And there came out against them Zerah the Cushite with an host of a million, and three hundred chariots; and came to Mareshah.
Te phoeiah amih te Kushi Zerah loh tatthai thawng thawngkhat, leng ya thum neh a paan tih Mareshah la pawk.
10 Then Asa went out against him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
Te dongah Asa te a hmai ah cet tih Mareshah kah kolrhawk ah caemtloek rhong a pai.
11 And Asa cried to the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee.
Te vaengah Asa loh amah kah Pathen BOEIPA te a khue tih, “Aw BOEIPA, thadueng aka tal te boeiping laklo ah bom ham khaw namah bang a om moenih. Kaimih kah Pathen BOEIPA aw kaimih m'bom lah. Namah dongah ka hangdang uh tih namah ming nen ni he hlangping taengla ka pawk uh. Namah te kaimih kah Pathen BOEIPA ni, namah taengah tah hlanghing loh ueh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
12 So the LORD smote the Cushites before Asa, and before Judah; and the Cushites fled.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh Kushi te Asa mikhmuh neh Judah mikhmuh ah a yawk sak tih Kushi rhoek te rhaelrham uh.
13 And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them to Gerar: and the Cushites were overthrown, that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the LORD, and before his host; and they carried away very much spoil.
Amih te Asa neh a taengkah pilnam loh Gerar hil duela a hloem tih Kushi lamloh a cungku sak. Amih te hinglu hlawtnah a om pawt hil BOEIPA mikhmuh neh a caem mikhmuh ah a khah coeng tih kutbuem khaw a yet la muep a phueih uh.
14 And they smote all the cities about Gerar; for the fear of the LORD came upon them: and they smote all the cities; for there was very much spoil in them.
Te vaengah amih soah BOEIPA taengkah birhihnah a om dongah Gerar kaepvai khopuei boeih te a ngawn uh. A khuiah kutbuem muep a om dongah khopuei tom te a poelyoe uh.
15 They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.
Boiva kah dap khaw a ngawn uh dongah boiva neh kalauk te a cungkuem la a sol uh tih Jerusalem la mael uh.
