4Thus saith the LORD , Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house: for this thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD , and returned from going against Jeroboam.

14Levi rhoek loh a khocaak neh a khohut te a hnoo uh tih Judah la, Jerusalem la cet uh. Amih te Jeroboam neh anih koca rhoek loh BOEIPA kah khosoih lamloh a hlahpham dongah ni.
14For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest’s office unto the LORD :
15Amah ham te hmuensang khosoih a pai sak tih maae neh vaitoca ham khaw a saii.
15And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
