1Joash te kum rhih a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum sawmli manghai. A manu ming tah Beersheba lamkah Zihiah ni.
1Joas was seven years old when he began to reign: and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Sebia of Bersabee.
2Khosoih Jehoiada kah a tue khuiah tah Joash loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem a saii.
2And he did that which is good before the Lord all the days of Joiada the priest.
3Anih ham te Jehoiada loh yuu panit a paek tih canu capa a sak.
3And Joiada took for him two wives, by whom he had sons and daughters.
4Te dongah a hnuk lamtah BOEIPA im te tlaih ham Joash kah lungbuei ah a om pah.
4After this Joas had a mind to repair the house of the Lord.
5Te phoeiah khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek te a coi tih amih te, “Judah khopuei rhoek la cet uh. Na Pathen im duel hamla kum khat, kum khat a rhoeh la Israel pum taengkah tangka coi uh. Nangmih te a ol bangla na tokthuet uh mai akhaw Levi rhoek tah tok boel saeh,” a ti nah.
5And he assembled the priests, and the Levites, and said to them: Go out to the cities of Juda, and gather of all Israel money to repair the temple of your God, from year to year: and do this with speed: but the Levites were negligent.
6Manghai loh boeilu Jehoiada te a khue tih a taengah, “Olphong dap dongkah hamla BOEIPA kah sal Moses neh Israel hlangping kah buham te, Judah lamkah neh Jerusalem lamloh khuen ham te balae tih Levi taengah na toem pawh?
6And the king called Joiada the chief, and said to him: Why hast thou not taken care to oblige the Levites to bring in out of Juda and Jerusalem the money that was appointed by Moses the servant of the Lord for all the multitude of Israel to bring into the tabernacle of the testimony?
7Halangnu Athaliah kah a ca rhoek loh Pathen im te a muk uh coeng. BOEIPA im kah hnocim boeih khaw Baal hamla a saii uh,” a ti nah.
7For that wicked woman Athalia, and her children have destroyed the house of God, and adorned the temple of Baal with all the things that had been dedicated in the temple of the Lord.
8Te dongah manghai loh a ti bangla thingkawng pakhat a saii uh tih BOEIPA im poeng ben vongka ah a khueh uh.
8And the king commanded, and they made a chest: and set it by the gate of the house of the Lord on the outside.
9Te phoeiah ah tah khosoek kah Israel taeng lamloh Pathen kah sal Moses buham te BOEIPA taengla khuen ham te Judah ah khaw Jerusalem ah ol a paek uh.
9And they made a proclamation in Juda and Jerusalem, that every man should bring to the Lord the money which Moses the servant of God appointed for all Israel, in the desert.
10Te vaengah mangpa boeih neh pilnam boeih khaw a kohoe uh. Te dongah a khuen uh tih a thingkawng dongah a bae la a sang uh.
10And all the princes, and all the people rejoiced: and going In they contributed and cast so much into the chest of the Lord, that it was filled.
11A tue a pha vaengah tah thingkawng te Levi kut lamloh manghai kah cawhkung taengla a khuen. Amih loh tangka muep a hmuh vaengah tah manghai kah cadaek neh khosoih boeilu kah hlangtawt te ha pawk. Te vaengah thingkawng te a kong uh tih a khuen uh. Amah a hmuen la a mael puei uh tih a hnin, hnin ah te tlam te a saii uh dongah tangka khaw a cung la a tung uh.
11And when it was time to bring the chest before the king by the hands of the Levites, (for they saw there was much money,) the king’s scribe, and he whom the high priest had appointed went in: and they poured out the money that was in the chest: and they carried back the chest to its place: and thus they did from day to day, and there was gathered an immense sum of money.
12Te te manghai neh Jehoiada loh BOEIPA im kah thothuengnah bitat aka saii taengah a paek tih BOEIPA im a tlaih vaengkah lungto aka dae neh kutthai rhoek, BOEIPA im a duel vaengkah thi neh rhohum kutthai rhoek ham khaw a paang nah la om.
12And the king and Joiada gave it to those who were over the works of the house of the Lord: but they hired with it stonecutters, and artificers of every kind of work to repair the house of the Lord: and such as wrought in iron and brass, to uphold what began to be falling.
13Aka saii rhoek loh bitat a saii uh van dongah amih kut dongkah bitat tah sading la cet. Pathen im te a lan a tang bangla a thoh uh tih a duel uh.
13And the workmen were diligent, and the breach of the walls was closed up by their hands, and they set up the house of the Lord in its former state, and made it stand firm.
14A khah uh phoeiah tah tangka coih te manghai neh Jehoiada mikhmuh la a khuen uh. Te te BOEIPA im kah hnopai la, thohtatnah hnopai la a saii tih yakbu, sui neh cak hnopai khaw a khuen. Te dongah Jehoiada tue khuiah tah BOEIPA im ah hmueihhlutnah aka khuen khaw phueih om.
14And when they had finished all the works, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Joiada: and with it were made vessels for the temple for the ministry, and for holocausts and bowls, and other vessels of gold and silver: and holocausts were offered in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Joiada.
15Jehoiada te patong tih a khohnin khaw cup coeng. A dueknah te khaw kum ya sawmthum a lo ca vaengah duek.
15But Joiada grew old and was full of days, and died when he was a hundred and thirty years old.
16Anih tah Israel khuiah khaw Pathen ham neh a im ham a then a saii dongah David khopuei ah manghai rhoek taengah a up uh.
16And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good to Israel, and to his house.
17Tedae Jehoiada a dueknah hnukah tah Judah mangpa rhoek te cet uh tih manghai taengah bakop uh. Te vaengah manghai loh amih taengkah te a hnatun.
17And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them.
18A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA im te a hnoo uh tih Asherah neh muei taengah tho a thueng uh. Amih kah dumlai kongah Judah neh Jerusalem soah thinhulnah om coeng.
18And they forsook the temple of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Juda and Jerusalem for this sin.
19Amih te BOEIPA taengla mael puei ham amih taengah tonghma rhoek a tueih tih amih te a rhalrhing sak uh akhaw hnatun uh pawh.
19And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.
20Te vaengah Pathen kah Mueihla loh khosoih Jehoiada capa Zekhariah te a thing. Te dongah pilnam te a taengah a pai thil tih amih te, “Pathen loh he ni a thui. Balae tih BOEIPA kah olpaek te na poe. Te dongah na thaihtak uh mahpawh. BOEIPA te na hnoo uh dongah nangmih khaw n'hnoo van coeng,” a ti nah.
20The spirit of God then came upon Zacharias the son of Joiada the priest, and he stood in the sight of the people, and said to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Why transgress you the commandment of the Lord which will not be for your good, and have forsaken the Lord, to make him forsake you?
21Te dongah anih te a taeng uh tih manghai olpaek bangla BOEIPA im kah vongup ah lungto neh a dae uh.
21And they gathered themselves together against him, and stoned him at the king’s commandment in the court of the house of the Lord.
22Zekhariah napa Jehoiada loh Joash taengah a tueng sak sitlohnah te manghai Joash loh a poek moenih. Tedae a capa te a ngawn pah tih a duek thuk vaengah tah, “BOEIPA loh hmu saeh lamtah toem nawn saeh,” a ti.
22And king Joas did not remember the kindness that Joiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. And when he died, he said: The Lord see, and require it.
23Kum te a thoknah a pha vaengah tah Aram caem loh anih taengla cet. Judah neh Jerusalem te a kun thil uh. Te vaengah pilnam lamkah pilnam mangpa boeih te a phae uh tih amih kah kutbuem boeih te Damasku manghai taengla a pat uh.
23And when a year was come about, the army of Syria came up against him: and they came to Juda and Jerusalem, and killed all the princes of the people, and they sent all the spoils to the king of Damascus.
24Aram caem te hlang a yol neh cet dae, tatthai cungkuem aka yet bangla BOEIPA loh amih kut ah a paek. A napa rhoek kah Pathen BOEIPA te a toeng uh dongah Joash soah tholhphu a suk.
24And whereas there came a very small number of the Syrians, the Lord delivered into their hands an infinite multitude, because they had forsaken the Lord the God of their fathers: and on Joas they executed shameful judgments.
25Anih taeng lamloh a khoe uh vaengah anih te boengha boengha hoeng la hnoo uh. Khosoih Jehoiada koca rhoek kah thii kongah anih te a sal rhoek loh a taeng uh tih a baiphaih dongah amah la a ngawn uh. A duek vaengah anih te David khopuei ah a up uh. Tedae manghai phuel ah a up moenih.
25And departing they left him in diseases: and his servants rose up him, for revenge of the blood of the son of Joiada the priest, and they slew him in his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
26Anih aka taeng rhoek tah Ammoni Shimeath capa Zabad, Moab Shimrith capa Jehozabad.
26Now the men that conspired against him were Zabad the son of Semmaath an Ammonitess, and Jozabad the son of Semarith a Moabitess.
27Anih koca rhoek neh a cungkuem dongah anih kah laipuei olrhuh khaw, Pathen im a phueng te khaw, manghai rhoek kah cil neh cabu khuiah a daek uh ne. Te phoeiah a capa Amaziah te anih yueng la manghai.
27And concerning his sons, and the sum of money which was gathered under him, and the repairing the house of God; they are written more diligently in the book of kings: and Amasias his son reigned in his stead.
