2 Kings 21

1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hephzibah.

Manasseh siangpahrang ah oh naah saning hathaihnetto ni oh vop; anih mah Jerusalem to saning quipangato pacoeng, pangato uk. Anih amno ih ahmin loe Hephzibah.

2 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, after the abominations of the nations whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.

Anih loe Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to sak; anih loe Angraeng mah Israel caanawk hmaa hoi haek pae ih Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah sak ih panuet thok hmuen to sak.

3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he raised up altars for Baal, and made an Asherah, as Ahab king of Israel did, and worshipped all the army of the sky, and served them.

Ampa Hezekiah mah phraek ih hmuensangnawk to anih mah sak let; Israel siangpahrang Ahab mah sak ih baktih toengah, anih mah Baal hmaicamnawk to sak let moe, Asherah thingnawk to tling let; cakaehnawk boih to a bok moe, nihcae hmaa ah akuep.

4 He built altars in the LORD’s house, of which the LORD said, “I will put my name in Jerusalem.”

Angraeng mah, Ka hmin loe Jerusalem ah ka suek han, tiah thuih ih Angraeng im ah hmaicamnawk to a sak.

5 He built altars for all the army of the sky in the two courts of the LORD’s house.

Angraeng ih imthung longhmaa hnetto haih ah, cakaehnawk hanah hmaicam to a sak pae.

6 He made his son to pass through the fire, practised sorcery, used enchantments, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits and with wizards. He did much evil in the LORD’s sight, to provoke him to anger.

Anih loe a capa to hmai angbawnhaih ah patoh; atue khethaih, miklet sakhaih, ma-uih hoi pakhra kawkhaihnawk to patoh pongah, Angraeng palungphuisak hanah, anih mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak.

7 He set the engraved image of Asherah that he had made in the house of which the LORD said to David and to Solomon his son, “In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name forever;

Angraeng mah, David hoi ampa Solomon khaeah, Israel acaengnawk boih thungah ka qoih ih, hae im hoi Jerusalem ah, Ka Hmin dungzan ah ka suek han, tiah thuih ih Angraeng ih imthung ah, angmah thuk ih Asherah thing hoi krangnawk to a suek;

8 I will not cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers, if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.”

ka thuih ih loknawk hoi ka tamna Mosi mah paek ih daannawk to mah acoehaih hoiah pazui o nahaeloe, ampanawk khaeah ka paek ih prae thung hoiah Israel kaminawk ih khok to kalah bangah kang thuisak mak ai, tiah a naa.

9 But they didn’t listen, and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than the nations did whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.

Toe nihcae mah lok tahngai pae o ai; Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk hmaa ah paro ih kaminawk mah sak ih hmuen pong kamtlai ah sethaih saksak hanah, Manasseh mah to kaminawk to zoek.

10 The LORD spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,

Angraeng mah a tamna tahmaanawk patohhaih rang hoiah lokthuih,

11 “Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations, and has done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, who were before him, and has also made Judah to sin with his idols;

Judah siangpahrang Manasseh loe Amor kaminawk mah anih hmaa ah, sak o ih hmuen pong panuet thok kue hmuen to sak boeh; angmah sak ih krangnawk hoiah Judah kaminawk to zaehaih saksak boeh pongah,

12 therefore the LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Behold, I will bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah that whoever hears of it, both his ears will tingle.

Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah, Khenah, Tamthang thaih kaminawk boih, naa amthaksak hanah, Jerusalem hoi Judah nuiah amrohaih ka phaksak han.

13 I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plumb line of Ahab’s house; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.

Jerusalem vangpui nuiah Samaria tahhaih qui hoi Ahab imthung takoh tahhaih qui to ka payang han; kami mah sabae pasaeh pacoengah hmaawt baktih toengah, Jerusalem to ka hmaawt bit moe, ka palet dak han.

14 I will cast off the remnant of my inheritance and deliver them into the hands of their enemies. They will become a prey and a plunder to all their enemies,

Kanghmat kaimah ih qawknawk to ka pahnawt moe, nihcae ih misanawk khaeah ka paek han; misanawk mah nihcae to muk o ueloe, hmuenmae to lomh pae o tih;

15 because they have done that which is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger since the day their fathers came out of Egypt, even to this day.’”

Izip prae thung hoiah nihcae ampanawk ka zaehhoih nathuem hoi kamtong vahni ni khoek to, kai palung ang phui o sak moe, ka mikhnukah nihcae mah kahoih ai hmuen to sak o, tiah a naa.

16 Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; in addition to his sin with which he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the LORD’s sight.

Toe Manasseh mah loe zaehaih tawn ai kaminawk to paroeai athii longsak; Jerusalem to athii hoiah koisak; anih loe Judah kaminawk zaehaih saksak khue ai ah, Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak.

17 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

Manasseh siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk, a sak ih hmuennawk hoi a sak ih zaehaihnawk boih loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?

18 Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza; and Amon his son reigned in his place.

Manasseh loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, siangpahrang angmah ih takha, Uzza takha thungah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Amon to siangpahrang ah oh.

19 Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.

Amon loe siangpahrang ah oh naah, saning pumphae, hnetto oh boeh; anih mah saning hnetto thung Jerusalem to uk. Anih amno ih ahmin loe Jotbah ah kaom, Haruz canu Meshulemet.

20 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, as Manasseh his father did.

Anih loe ampa Manasseh baktiah Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to sak.

21 He walked in all the ways that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them;

Anih loe ampa ih loklam to pazui moe, ampa mah bok ih krangnawk to a bok, krangnawk hmaa ah akuep.

22 and he abandoned the LORD, the God of his fathers, and didn’t walk in the way of the LORD.

Anih loe ampanawk ih Angraeng Sithaw to pahnawt moe, Angraeng ih loklam ah caeh ai.

23 The servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.

Amon ih tamnanawk mah anih to hum hanah pacaeng o moe, siangpahrang angmah im ah hum o.

24 But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.

Prae thung ih kaminawk mah Amon siangpahrang hum kaminawk to hum o boih pacoengah, a capa Josiah to siangpahrang ah suek o.

25 Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

Amon siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuen hoi a sak ih hmuennawk boih loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tatik o na ai maw?

26 He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, and Josiah his son reigned in his place.

Anih loe angmah ih takha Uzza ah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Josiah to sianpahrang ah oh.
