1In the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijam became king of Judah,
1Nebat capa Jeroboam manghai kah kum hlai rhet vaengah Judah ah Abijam manghai.
2and he reigned in Jerusalem three years. His mother’s name was Maacah daughter of Abishalom.
2Jerusalem ah kum thum manghai tih a manu ming tah Absalom canu Maakah ni.
3And Abijam walked in all the sins that his father before him had committed, and his heart was not as fully devoted to the LORD his God as the heart of David his forefather had been.
3A mikhmuh ah a saii pah a napa kah tholhnah cungkuem dongah pongpa tih a napa David kah thinko bangla a Pathen BOEIPA taengah a thinko rhuemtuet la a om moenih.
4Nevertheless, for the sake of David, the LORD his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem by raising up a son to succeed him and to make Jerusalem strong.
4Tedae David kongah ni a Pathen BOEIPA loh anih te Jerusalem ah hmaithoi a paek. Anih hnukah a capa te a phoe sak tih Jerusalem te a pai sak.
5For David had done what was right in the eyes of the LORD and had not turned aside from anything the LORD commanded all the days of his life, except in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
5David tah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem he a saii tih anih a uen boeih te a phaelh moenih. A hing tue khuiah Khitti Uriah kah lai bueng ni lai dawk a om.
6And there was war between the houses of Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of Abijam’s life.
6Rehoboam laklo neh Jeroboam laklo ah he a hing tue khuiah caemtloek om.
7As for the rest of the acts of Abijam, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
7Abijam kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek moenih a? Abijam laklo neh Jeroboam laklo ah caemtloek ni aka om.
8And Abijam rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David, and his son Asa reigned in his place.
8Abijam te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah anih te David khopuei ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Asa he anih yueng la manghai.
9In the twentieth year of Jeroboam’s reign over Israel, Asa became king of Judah,
9Israel manghai Jeroboam kah a kum kul dongah Judah manghai Asa he manghai.
10and he reigned in Jerusalem forty-one years. His grandmother’s name was Maacah daughter of Abishalom.
10Anih te Jerusalem ah sawmli kum khat manghai. A manu ming tah Absalom canu Maakah ni.
11And Asa did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, as his father David had done.
11Asa tah a napa David bangla BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem ni a saii.
12He banished the male shrine prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
12Te dongah hlanghalh rhoek te khohmuen lamloh a haek tih a napa rhoek loh a saii mueirhol te boeih a khoe.
13He also removed his grandmother Maacah from her position as queen mother because she had made a detestable Asherah pole. Asa chopped down the pole and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
13A manu Maakah pataeng Asherah ham rhobuk a saii dongah manghainu lamloh a khoe. A rhobuk te Asa loh a phae pah tih Kidron soklong ah a hoeh.
14The high places were not removed, but Asa’s heart was fully devoted to the LORD all his days.
14Hmuensang te khoe uh sitoe pawt cakhaw amah tue khuiah tah Asa kah thinko he BOEIPA taengah rhuemtuet la om.
15And he brought into the house of the LORD the silver and gold and other articles that he and his father had dedicated.
15A napa kah hnocim neh amah kah hnocim khaw, cak neh, sui neh hnopai khaw BOEIPA im kah hnocim la a khuen.
16Now there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel throughout their days.
16Amah tue khuiah tah Asa laklo neh Israel manghai Baasha laklo ah caemtloek om.
17Baasha king of Israel went to war against Judah and fortified Ramah to prevent anyone from leaving or entering the territory of Asa king of Judah.
17Israel manghai Baasha loh Judah te a paan tih Ramah te a tuung. Judah manghai Asa taengah aka kun ham neh aka vuenva ham khaw pae pawh.
18So Asa withdrew all the silver and gold that remained in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the royal palace. He entrusted it to his servants and sent them with this message to Ben-hadad son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion king of Aram, who was ruling in Damascus:
18Asa loh BOEIPA im thakvoh khuiah aka sueng cak neh sui boeih, manghai im kah manghai thakvoh khaw a loh tih a sal rhoek kut ah a tloeng. Te phoeiah manghai Asa loh Damasku ah kho aka sa Aram manghai, Hezion koca Tabrimmon capa Benhadad taengla a thak.
19“Let there be a treaty between me and you, between my father and your father. See, I have sent you a gift of silver and gold. Now go and break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me.”
19Te vaengah, “Kamah laklo neh namah lako ah, a pa laklo neh na pa laklo kah paipi om tih nang taengah kapbaih la cak neh sui he kam pat ne. Cet lamtah Israel manghai Baasha taengkah na paipi te phae mai. Te vaengah kai taeng lamloh nong bitni,” a ti nah.
20And Ben-hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, conquering Ijon, Dan, Abel-beth-maacah, and the whole land of Naphtali, including the region of Chinnereth.
20Benhadad loh manghai Asa ol te a ngai pah. Te dongah amah taengkah mangpa tatthai rhoek te Israel khopuei rhoek ah a tueih tih Ijon, Dan, Abelbethmaakah neh Kinnereth boeih, Naphtali khohmuen boeih te a ngawn.
21When Baasha learned of this, he stopped fortifying Ramah and withdrew to Tirzah.
21Baasha loh a yaak van neh Ramah a sak te a toeng tih Tirzah la kho a sak.
22Then King Asa summoned all the men of Judah, with no exceptions, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and the timbers Baasha had used for building. And with these materials King Asa built up Geba of Benjamin, as well as Mizpah.
22Asa manghai loh Judah pum te a yaak sak vaengah ommongsitoe om voel pawh. Te dongah Baasha loh Ramah a sak nah lungto neh thing te a puen uh. Te nen te manghai Asa loh Benjamin Geba neh Mizpah te a sak.
23Now the rest of the acts of Asa, along with all his might, all his accomplishments, and the cities he built, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? In his old age, however, he became diseased in his feet.
23Asa kah ol noi boeih neh a thayung thamal boeih, a saii boeih neh a sak khopuei rhoek te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a? Tedae a patong tue ah a kho a tloh pah.
24And Asa rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the city of his father David, and his son Jehoshaphat reigned in his place.
24Asa te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah a napa David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Jehoshaphat te anih yueng la manghai.
25In the second year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Nadab son of Jeroboam became king of Israel, and he reigned two years.
25Judah manghai Asa kah a kum bae dongah Jeroboam capa Nadab he Israel soah manghai tih Israel soah kum nit manghai.
26And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and walked in the way of his father and in his sin, which he had caused Israel to commit.
26BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii tih a napa kah longpuei ah pongpa. Anih kah tholhnah khuiah Israel te a tholh sak.
27Then Baasha son of Ahijah of the house of Issachar conspired against Nadab, and Baasha struck him down at Gibbethon of the Philistines while Nadab and all Israel were besieging the city.
27Anih te Issakhar imkhui kah Ahijah capa Baasha loh a ven. Te dongah Baasha loh Nadab neh Gibbethon aka dum Israel boeih te Philisti kah Gibbethon ah a ngawn.
28In the third year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Baasha killed Nadab and reigned in his place.
28Judah manghai Asa kah a kum thum dongah Baasha loh Nadab te a duek sak tih Nadab yueng la manghai.
29As soon as Baasha became king, he struck down the entire household of Jeroboam. He did not leave to Jeroboam anyone that breathed, but destroyed them all according to the word that the LORD had spoken through His servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
29A manghai van neh Jeroboam imkhui te boeih a ngawn tih Jeroboam hiil la aka hiil boeih te hlun pawh. A sal Shiloh Ahijah kut ah a thui BOEIPA ol bangla Nadab te a mit sak.
30because of the sins Jeroboam had committed and had caused Israel to commit, and because he had provoked the LORD, the God of Israel, to anger.
30Jeroboam kah tholhnah tah tholh coeng tih Israel te khaw a tholh sak. A konoinah lamloh Israel Pathen BOEIPA te a veet.
31As for the rest of the acts of Nadab, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
31Nadab kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te khaw Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
32And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel throughout their days.
32Amah tue khuiah tah Asa laklo neh Israel manghai Baasha laklo ah caemtloek puet om.
33In the third year of Asa’s reign over Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah became king of all Israel, and he reigned in Tirzah twenty-four years.
33Judah manghai Asa kah a kum thum dongah Ahijah capa Baasha he Israel boeih soah manghai van tih Tirzah ah kum kul kum li om.
34And Baasha did evil in the sight of the LORD and walked in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin, which he had caused Israel to commit.
34BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii tih Jeroboam kah longpuei ah pongpa. Anih kah tholhnah khuiah Israel te a tholh sak.
