1In the second year of the reign of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz over Israel, Amaziah son of Joash became king of Judah.
1Israel siangpahrang Jehoahaz capa Joash siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hnetto haih naah, Judah siangpahrang Joash capa Amaziah to siangpahrang ah oh.
2He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem.
2Anih loe siangpahrang ah oh naah saning pumphae pangato oh boeh; anih loe Jerusalem ah saning pumphae takawtto thung siangpahrang ah oh. Amno ih ahmin loe Jehoaddan, anih loe Jerusalem ih kami ah oh.
3And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not as his father David had done. He did everything as his father Joash had done.
3Anih loe Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih hmuen to sak; toe ampa David mah sak ih hmuen baktiah sah ai. Ampa Joash mah sak ih hmuennawk boih to a sak.
4Nevertheless, the high places were not taken away, and the people continued sacrificing and burning incense on the high places.
4Hmuensangnawk to takhoe ai pongah, to hmuensangnawk ah kaminawk mah angbawnhaih to sak o moe, hmuihoih to thlaek o.
5As soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, Amaziah executed the servants who had murdered his father the king.
5Prae to a ban thungah kacakah suek pacoengah, ampa siangpahrang kahum a tamna hnik to a hum let.
6Yet he did not put the sons of the murderers to death, but acted according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, where the LORD commanded: “Fathers must not be put to death for their children, and children must not be put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.”
6Toe Angraeng mah lokpaek ih Mosi Cabu thungah, A caanawk pongah ampanawk to hum han om ai, ampanawk pongah a caanawk to hum han om ai; kami boih angmah ih zaehaih pongah ni duek han oh, tiah tarik ih oh pongah, a caanawk loe hum pae ai.
7Amaziah struck down 10,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. He took Sela in battle and called it Joktheel, which is its name to this very day.
7Anih loe Edom kami sang hato Paloi azawn ah hum moe, Sela vangpui to a tuk pongah, vaihni ni khoek to to ahmuen to Joktheel, tiah kawk o.
8Then Amaziah sent messengers to the king of Israel Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu. “Come, let us meet face to face,” he said.
8To pacoengah Amaziah mah Israel siangpahrang Jehu capa Jehoahaz, Jehoahaz capa Jehoash khaeah laicaehnawk patoeh, Angzo ah, mikhmai kangtongah angqum hoi si, tiah a naa.
9But Jehoash king of Israel replied to Amaziah king of Judah: “A thistle in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in marriage.’ Then a wild beast in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle.
9Israel siangpahrang Jehoash mah Judah siangpahrang Amaziah khaeah, Lebanon ih soekhringkung mah Lebanon ih hmaica thing khaeah, Ka capa ih zu hanah na canu to na paek ah, tiah lokpat pae; to naah Labanon ih moisan maeto angzoh moe, soekhringkung to khok hoiah atit phaeng.
10You have indeed defeated Edom, and your heart has become proud. Glory in that and stay at home. Why should you stir up trouble so that you fall—you and Judah with you?”
10Edom to na pazawk pongah nam oek; na pazawk pongah amoek ah, toe im ah omduem ah; tih han ih nangmah hoi Judah nawnto amtimh hanah, raihaih na ohsak loe? tiah a naa.
11But Amaziah would not listen, and Jehoash king of Israel advanced. He and King Amaziah of Judah faced each other at Beth-shemesh in Judah.
11Toe Amaziah mah tahngai pae ai. To pongah Israel siangpahrang Jehoash loe caeh tahang moe, Judah siangpahrang Amaziah hoi Judah prae Beth-Shemesh ah mikhmai kangtongah anghnuk hoi.
12And Judah was routed before Israel, and every man fled to his home.
12Israelnawk mah Judahnawk to pazawk; kaminawk loe angmacae im ah cawnh o boih.
13There at Beth-shemesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Ahaziah. Then Jehoash went to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits.
13Israel siangpahrang Jehoash mah Ahaziah capa Joash, Joash capa Judah siangpahrang Amaziah to Beth-Shemesh ah naeh, Jehoash loe Jerusalem ah caeh moe, Jerusalem ih sipae to Ephraim khongkha hoi im takii ih khongkha khoek to phraek; a phraek ih sipae loe dong cumvai palito oh.
14He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as some hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
14Sui hoi phoisanawk, Angraeng imthung ah kaom laom sabaenawk, siangpahrang im ih phoisanawk to a lak boih, kaminawk doeh misong ah caeh haih pacoengah, Samaria ah amlaem let.
15As for the rest of the acts of Jehoash, along with his accomplishments, his might, and how he waged war against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
15Jehoash siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk, a sak ih hmuennawk, a thacakhaihnawk, Judah siangpahrang Amaziah hoi misa angtukhaih kawngnawk boih loe, Israel siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
16And Jehoash rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. And his son Jeroboam reigned in his place.
16Jehoash loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, Samaria vangpui ah Israel siangpahrangnawk khaeah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Jeroboam to siangpahrang ah oh.
17Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived for fifteen years after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel.
17Israel siangpahrang Jehoahaz capa Jehoash duek pacoengah, Judah siangpahrang Joash capa Amaziah loe saning hatlaipangato hing vop.
18As for the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
18Amaziah siangpahrang ah oh nathung, a sak ih hmuennawk loe Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu pongah tarik o na ai maw?
19And conspirators plotted against Amaziah in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But men were sent after him to Lachish, and they killed him there.
19Jerusalem ah anih to hum han pacaeng o pongah, anih loe Lakish vangpui ah cawnh ving, toe Lakish ah kami to patoeh moe, to ah anih to hum o.
20They carried him back on horses and buried him in Jerusalem with his fathers in the City of David.
20Anih to hrang hoi phawh o moe, Jerusalem ah ampanawk khaeah, David vangpui ah aphum o.
21Then all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
21Judah kaminawk boih mah saning hatlaitarukto kaom, Azariah to lak o moe, ampa zuengah siangpahrang ah suek o.
22Azariah was the one who rebuilt Elath and restored it to Judah after King Amaziah rested with his fathers.
22Amaziah loe ampa duek pacoengah, Elath vangpui to sak moe, Judah prae thungah suek let.
23In the fifteenth year of the reign of Amaziah son of Joash over Judah, Jeroboam son of Jehoash became king of Israel, and he reigned in Samaria forty-one years.
23Judah siangpahrang Joash capa, Amaziah siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning hatlaipangato haih naah, Israel siangpahrang Joash capa Jeroboam to Samaria ah siangpahrang ah oh; anih loe saning quipalito pacoeng, saningto thung siangpahrang ah oh.
24And he did evil in the sight of the LORD and did not turn away from all the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit.
24Israel kaminawk zaesakkung, Nebat capa Jeroboam ih zaehaih to caehtaak ai; Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak.
25This Jeroboam restored the boundary of Israel from Lebo-hamath to the Sea of the Arabah, according to the word that the LORD, the God of Israel, had spoken through His servant Jonah son of Amittai, the prophet from Gath-hepher.
25Israel Angraeng Sithaw loe Gath-Hepher vangpui ah kaom a tamna Amittai capa Jonah khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, anih loe Israel prae ramri to Hamath vangpui akunhaih ahmuen hoi azawn ih tuipui khoek to angmah ih prae ah suek.
26For the LORD saw that the affliction of the Israelites, both slave and free, was very bitter. There was no one to help Israel,
26Israel prae thung ih kaminawk loe, tamna doeh, kaloih kami doeh, paroeai patangkhang o, nihcae bomkung mi doeh om ai, tiah Angraeng mah hnuk.
27and since the LORD had said that He would not blot out the name of Israel from under heaven, He saved them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Jehoash.
27Israel ih ahmin loe ni tlim hoiah phraek ving han ai ah, Angraeng mah poekhaih tawnh pongah, Joash capa Jeroboam ih ban patohhaih rang hoiah nihcae to pahlong.
28As for the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, along with all his accomplishments and might, and how he waged war and recovered both Damascus and Hamath for Israel from Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
28Jeroboam siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuen hoi a sak ih hmuennawk, a thacakhaihnawk, misatukhaihnawk, Judah prae thungah kaom Damaska hoi Hamath, misa ban thung hoi lak lethaih kawngnawk boih loe, Israel siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
29And Jeroboam rested with his fathers, the kings of Israel. And his son Zechariah reigned in his place.
29Jeroboam loe ampanawk, Israel siangpahrangnawk khaeah anghak; anih zuengah a capa Zakariah to siangpahrang ah oh.
