2 Chronicles 28
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. He didn’t do that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, like David his father,
Ahaz loe siangpahrang ah oh tangsuek naah saning pumphaeto oh boeh, Jerusalem to saning hatlai tarukto thung uk. Anih loe ampa David baktiah, Angraeng mikhnukah katoeng hmuen to sah ai.
2 but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and also made molten images for the Baals.
Anih loe Israel siangpahrangnawk caehhaih loklam to pazui moe, Baal bokhaih krangnawk to sak.
3 Moreover he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his children in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
Hinnom capa ih azawn ah hmuihoih to a thlaek moe, a caanawk to hmai hoiah a qoeng; Angraeng mah Israelnawk hmaa ah haek ih Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah sak ih panuet thok hmuen to a sak toeng.
4 He sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
Angbawnhaihnawk to sak moe, hmuensang ih mae nui hoi aqam kahing thing tlim boih ah hmuihoih to a thlaek.
5 Therefore the LORD his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria. They struck him, and carried away from him a great multitude of captives, and brought them to Damascus. He was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who struck him with a great slaughter.
To pongah angmah ih Angraeng Sithaw mah Syria siangpahrang ban ah paek; Syria kaminawk mah anih to pazawk moe, paroeai kaminawk misong ah naeh o pacoengah, Damaska ah caeh o haih. Anih to Israel siangpahrang ban ah paek moe, anih hoi angmah ih paroeai kaminawk to hum pae.
6 For Pekah the son of Remaliah killed in Judah one hundred and twenty thousand in one day, all of them valiant men, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers.
Judah mah angmacae ampanawk ih Angraeng Sithaw to pahnawt ving pongah, Ramaliah capa Israel siangpahrang Pekah mah Judah prae ah, nito thung thacak misatuh kaminawk sang cumvai, pumpaeto hum pae.
7 Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king’s son, Azrikam the ruler of the house, and Elkanah who was next to the king.
Thacak Ephraim ih kami Zikri mah, siangpahrang capa Maaseiah, siangpahrang im ukkung Azrikam hoi siangpahrang taengah toksah kami Elkanah to hum.
8 The children of Israel carried away captive of their brothers two hundred thousand women, sons, and daughters, and also took away much plunder from them, and brought the plunder to Samaria.
Israel kaminawk mah doeh, angmacae ih nawkamyanawk, nongpatanawk, canu hoi capa sang cumvai hnetto naeh pae o ving; hmuenmae paroeai lak pae o moe, Samaria vangpui ah phawh o.
9 But a prophet of the LORD was there, whose name was Oded; and he went out to meet the army that came to Samaria, and said to them, “Behold, because the LORD, the God of your fathers, was angry with Judah, he has delivered them into your hand, and you have slain them in a rage which has reached up to heaven.
Toe Angraerng ih tahmaa Obed, tiah kawk ih kami maeto oh; anih loe Samaria ah amlaem misatuh kaminawk hmaa ah caeh moe, nihcae khaeah, Nam panawk ih Angraeng Sithaw loe Judah kaminawk nuiah palungphui pongah, nangcae ban ah ang paek boeh; toe nihcae to khet kamcuk ai van pha khoek to ah na hum o.
10 Now you intend to degrade the children of Judah and Jerusalem as male and female slaves for yourselves. Aren’t there even with you trespasses of your own against the LORD your God?
Judah hoi Jerusalem ih nongpa nongpatanawk to vaihi tamna ah suek hanah na tim o bae vop; to tiah na sak o nahaeloe, na Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah zaehaih sak baktiah na om o mak ai maw?
11 Now hear me therefore, and send back the captives that you have taken captive from your brothers, for the fierce wrath of the LORD is on you.”
Vaihi ka lok hae tahngai oh! Tamna ah na naeh o ih nam nawkamyanawk to amlaem o sak let ah, to tih ai nahaeloe Angraeng palungphuihaih nangcae khaeah pha moeng tih, tiah a naa.
12 Then some of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Yochanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who came from the war,
To pacoengah Ephraim thung ih thoemto zaehoikung ah kaom, Johanan capa Azariah, Meshilemoth capa Berekiah, Shallum capa Jehizkiah hoi Hadlai capa Amasa mah misatukhaih ahmuen hoi angzo kaminawk to pakaa o.
13 and said to them, “You must not bring in the captives here, for you intend that which will bring on us a trespass against the LORD, to add to our sins and to our guilt; for our guilt is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel.”
Nihcae mah, Misong ah naeh ih kaminawk to hae ah angzo o haih hmah; aicae loe Angraeng hmaa ah a zae o boeh; nangcae loe zaehaih hoi kasae thap aep hanah hae tiah poekhaih na tawnh o, aicae sakpazaehaih loe paroeai pop boeh; to pongah kanung parai palungphuihaih Israel nuiah phak boeh.
14 So the armed men left the captives and the plunder before the princes and all the assembly.
To pongah misatuh kaminawk mah naeh ih kaminawk hoi a lak pae o ih hmuenmaenawk to, zaekoikung hoi amkhueng kaminawk hmaa ah prawt o ah.
15 The men who have been mentioned by name rose up and took the captives, and with the plunder clothed all who were naked amongst them, dressed them, gave them sandals, gave them something to eat and to drink, anointed them, carried all the feeble of them on donkeys, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers. Then they returned to Samaria.
Ahmin kawk ih kaminawk loe angthawk o moe, naeh ih kaminawk to kawk o; nihcae mah khukbuen tawn ai kaminawk to, a lak o ih khukbuen angkhuk o sak moe, khokpanai abuen o sak; caaknaek a paek o moe, thacak ai kaminawk to laa hrang pongah angthueng o sak; nihcae to angmacae nawkamyanawk ohhaih, ungsikung vangpui, tiah kawk ih Jeriko vangpui ah thak o pacoengah, Samaria ah amlaem o let.
16 At that time King Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.
To naah Ahaz siangpahrang mah Assyria siangpahrang khaeah abomhaih hnik hanah kami to patoeh.
17 For again the Edomites had come and struck Judah, and carried away captives.
Edom kaminawk loe angzoh o moe, Judah kaminawk to tuk o; nihcae to naeh moe, misong ah caeh o haih boih.
18 The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the lowland and of the South of Judah, and had taken Beth Shemesh, Aijalon, Gederoth, Soco with its villages, Timnah with its villages, and also Gimzo and its villages; and they lived there.
Philistinnawk mah aloih bang ih prae hoi Judah prae thung ih vangpuinawk to tuk o moe, Beth-Shemesh, Ajalon hoi Gederoth, Shoko, Timnah, Gimzo hoi a taeng ih vangtanawk to lak o.
19 For the LORD brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel, because he acted without restraint in Judah and trespassed severely against the LORD.
Israel siangpahrang Ahaz pongah, Angraeng mah Judah to pakhrak tathuk; anih mah Judah prae to bangkrai ah suek moe, Angraeng hmaa ah zaehaih to sak.
20 Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came to him and gave him trouble, but didn’t strengthen him.
Assyria siangpahrang Tilgath-Pilneser loe anih khaeah angzoh, toe thapaek ai ah, palung ni boengsak lat.
21 For Ahaz took away a portion out of the LORD’s house, and out of the house of the king and of the princes, and gave it to the king of Assyria; but it didn’t help him.
Angraeng im thung ih hmuen, siangpahrang imthung ih hmuen hoi angraengnawk khae ih hmuenmae to Ahaz mah lak moe, Assyria siangpahrang to paek, toe Assyria siangpahrang mah Ahaz to abom ai.
22 In the time of his distress, he trespassed yet more against the LORD, this same King Ahaz.
Siangpahrang Ahaz loe to tiah raihaih tongh li naah, Angraeng hmaa ah zaehaih to sak aep aep.
23 For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had defeated him. He said, “Because the gods of the kings of Syria helped them, I will sacrifice to them, that they may help me.” But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel.
Anih bopkung Damaska ih sithawnawk khaeah angbawnhaih to a sak; Syria sithawnawk mah angmah ih siangpahrangnawk to abomh pongah kai tuk ang pazawk o: to sithawnawk khaeah angbawnhaih ka sak nahaeloe, kai doeh na bomh toeng tih, tiah a poek. Toe to tiah a sak pongah angmah hoi Israel kaminawk to amro o boih.
24 Ahaz gathered together the vessels of God’s house, cut the vessels of God’s house in pieces, and shut up the doors of the LORD’s house; and he made himself altars in every corner of Jerusalem.
Ahaz loe Sithaw imthung ih laom sabaenawk to ahmuen maeto ah nawnto tapop moe, pakhoih boih; Angraeng ih im thoknawk to khah boih; Jerusalem vangpui ih takii ah hmaicamnawk to a sak.
25 In every city of Judah he made high places to burn incense to other gods, and provoked the LORD, the God of his fathers, to anger.
Kalah sithawnawk khaeah hmuihoih thlaek hanah Judah prae vangpui kruekah hmuensangnawk to a sak; to tiah anih mah angmacae ampanawk ih Angraeng Sithaw to palungphuisak.
26 Now the rest of his acts, and all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Siangpahrang ah oh nathung a sak ih hmuennawk boih hoi a caehhaih loklamnawk boih, takung hoi tadong khoek to, Judah hoi Israel siangpahrangnawk ih cabu thungah tarik o.
27 Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem, because they didn’t bring him into the tombs of the kings of Israel; and Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.
Ahaz loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, Jerusalem vangpui ah aphum o; toe Israel siangpahrangnawk ih taprong ah aphum o ai; anih zuengah a capa Hezekiah mah prae to uk.
