1In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham became king of Judah.
1Remaliah capa Pekah kah kum hlai rhih kum vaengah Judah manghai Jotham capa Ahaz khaw manghai van.
2Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD his God.
2Ahaz amah he kum kul a lo ca vaengah manghai. Jerusalem ah kum hlai rhuk manghai dae a napa David bangla a Pathen BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem a saii moenih.
3Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
3Israel manghai rhoek kah longpuei ah pongpa tih namtom kah tueilaehkoi la a ca pataeng hmai dongah a kat sak. BOEIPA loh amih te Israel ca mikhmuh lamkah ni a haek coeng.
4And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
4Hmuensang neh som ah khaw, thing hing cungkuem hmuiah khaw a nawn tih a phum.
5Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to wage war against Jerusalem. They besieged Ahaz but could not overcome him.
5Aram manghai Rezin neh Israel manghai Remaliah capa Pekah loh caemtloek la Jerusalem a paan rhoi. Te vaengah Ahaz te a dum rhoi dae a vathoh ham tah coeng rhoi pawh.
6At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram, drove out the men of Judah, and sent the Edomites into Elath, where they live to this day.
6Te vaeng tue ah Aram manghai Rezin loh Aram hamla Elath te a lat pah. Elath lamkah Judah te a biit dongah Arammi neh Edom loh Elath la puen uh tih tahae khohnin duela pahoi kho a sak uh.
7So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hands of the kings of Aram and Israel, who are rising up against me.”
7Ahaz loh Assyria manghai Tiglathpileser taengah puencawn a tueih tih, “Kai he na sal neh na ca ni. Halo lamtah kai he Aram manghai kut lamkah neh kai aka tlai thil Israel manghai kut lamkah n'khang laeh,” a ti nah.
8Ahaz also took the silver and gold found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king’s palace, and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
8Te vaengah Ahaz loh cak neh sui khaw, BOEIPA im neh manghai im thakvoh khuikah a hmuh boeih te a loh tih Assyria manghai taengah kapbaih la a pat.
9So the king of Assyria responded to him, marched up to Damascus, and captured it. He took its people to Kir as captives and put Rezin to death.
9Anih ol te Assyria manghai loh a ngai pah dongah Assyria manghai loh Damasku te a paan. Te te a buem van neh a khuikah rhoek te Kir la a poelyoe tih Rezin te khaw a duek sak.
10Then King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria. On seeing the altar in Damascus, King Ahaz sent Uriah the priest a model of the altar and complete plans for its construction.
10Manghai Ahaz te Assyria manghai Tiglathpileser doe ham Damasku la pawk. Te vaengah Damasku kah hmueihtuk te a hmuh. Te dongah manghai Ahaz loh khosoih Uriah taengla hmueihtuk kah mueiloh neh a kutngo cungkuem dongkah a muei te a pat.
11And Uriah the priest built the altar according to all the instructions King Ahaz had sent from Damascus, and he completed it by the time King Ahaz had returned.
11Te dongah Damasku lamkah manghai Ahaz loh a cungkuem a pat pah vanbangla khosoih Uriah loh hmueihtuk te a sak tih Damasku lamkah manghai Ahaz a mael hlan ah khosoih Uriah long khaw ana saii pah van.
12When the king came back from Damascus and saw the altar, he approached it and presented offerings on it.
12Damasku lamkah manghai a pawk vaengah tah manghai loh hmueihtuk te a hmuh. Te dongah manghai loh hmueihtuk taengla tawn uh tih a sola luei.
13He offered his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings on the altar.
13Te phoeiah a hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang te a phum. A tuisi te a doeng tih rhoepnah thii te hmueihtuk dongah amah la a haeh.
14He also took the bronze altar that stood before the LORD from the front of the temple (between the new altar and the house of the LORD) and he put it on the north side of the new altar.
14BOEIPA mikhmuh kah rhohum hmueihtuk te khaw im hmai lamkah hmueihtuk laklo neh BOEIPA im laklo lamloh a puen tih tlangpuei hmueihtuk kaep ah a khueh.
15Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, “Offer on the great altar the morning burnt offering, the evening grain offering, and the king’s burnt offering and grain offering, as well as the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and drink offerings of all the people of the land. Sprinkle on the altar all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. But I will use the bronze altar to seek guidance.”
15Manghai Ahaz loh khosoih Uriah te a uen, a uen tih, “Mincang kah hmueihhlutnah neh hlaem kah khocang khaw, manghai kah hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang khaw, khohmuen pilnam cungkuem kah hmueihhlutnah neh a khocang khaw a tuisi khaw, hmueihtuk len dongah phum. Hmueihhlutnah thii boeih neh hmueih thii boeih tah a soah haeh thil. Tedae rhohum hmueihtuk tah kai ham aka hnukdawn la om saeh,” a ti nah.
16So Uriah the priest did just as King Ahaz had commanded.
16A cungkuem dongah manghai Ahaz kah a uen bangla khosoih Uriah loh a saii.
17King Ahaz also cut off the frames of the movable stands and removed the bronze basin from each of them. He took down the Sea from the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone base.
17Manghai Ahaz loh tungkho soenglong te a top tih te dong lamkah baeldung te khaw a khoe. Tuli te a dangkah rhohum vaito dong lamloh a hlak tih lung phaih dongah a khueh.
18And on account of the king of Assyria, he removed the Sabbath canopy they had built in the temple and closed the royal entryway outside the house of the LORD.
18Hlamim khaw im taengkah a sak Sabbath hlamim tah Assyria manghai kah maelhmai kongah ni BOEIPA im kah manghai khuirhai voel la a det.
19As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
19Ahaz kah ol noi neh a bi saii te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
20And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David, and his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
20Ahaz te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up. Te phoeiah a capa Hezekiah te anih yueng la manghai.
