1Joash te kum rhih a lo ca vaengah manghai tih Jerusalem ah kum sawmli manghai. A manu ming tah Beersheba lamkah Zihiah ni.
1Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.
2Khosoih Jehoiada kah a tue khuiah tah Joash loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a thuem a saii.
2Joash did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
3Anih ham te Jehoiada loh yuu panit a paek tih canu capa a sak.
3Jehoiada took for him two wives, and he became the father of sons and daughters.
4Te dongah a hnuk lamtah BOEIPA im te tlaih ham Joash kah lungbuei ah a om pah.
4After this, Joash intended to restore the LORD’s house.
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.
5He gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather money to repair the house of your God from all Israel from year to year. See that you expedite this matter.” However the Levites didn’t do it right away.
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?
6The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, “Why haven’t you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, for the Tent 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 the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up God’s house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the LORD’s house to the Baals.
8Te dongah manghai loh a ti bangla thingkawng pakhat a saii uh tih BOEIPA im poeng ben vongka ah a khueh uh.
8So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside at the gate of the LORD’s house.
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.
9They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.
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.
10All the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had filled it.
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.
11Whenever the chest was brought to the king’s officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the chief priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
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.
12The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the LORD’s house. They hired masons and carpenters to restore the LORD’s house, and also those who worked iron and bronze to repair the LORD’s house.
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.
13So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands. They set up God’s house as it was designed, and strengthened it.
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.
14When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, from which were made vessels for the LORD’s house, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, including spoons and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the LORD’s house continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15Jehoiada te patong tih a khohnin khaw cup coeng. A dueknah te khaw kum ya sawmthum a lo ca vaengah duek.
15But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died. He was one hundred thirty years old when he died.
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.
16They buried him in David’s city among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and 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.
17Now after the death of Jehoiada, the princes of Judah came and bowed down to the king. Then the king listened 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.
18They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and the idols, so wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
19Amih te BOEIPA taengla mael puei ham amih taengah tonghma rhoek a tueih tih amih te a rhalrhing sak uh akhaw hnatun uh pawh.
19Yet he sent prophets to them to bring them again to the LORD, and they testified against them; but they would not listen.
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 came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, “God says, ‘Why do you disobey the LORD’s commandments, so that you can’t prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.’”
21Te dongah anih te a taeng uh tih manghai olpaek bangla BOEIPA im kah vongup ah lungto neh a dae uh.
21They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the LORD’s house.
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.
22Thus Joash the king didn’t remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, “May the LORD look at it, and repay 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.
23At the end of the year, the army of the Syrians came up against him. They came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all their plunder 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.
24For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on Joash.
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.
25When they had departed from him (for they left him seriously wounded), his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and killed him on his bed, and he died. They buried him in David’s city, but they didn’t bury him in the tombs of the kings.
26Anih aka taeng rhoek tah Ammoni Shimeath capa Zabad, Moab Shimrith capa Jehozabad.
26These are those who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the 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.
27Now concerning his sons, the greatness of the burdens laid on him, and the rebuilding of God’s house, behold, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
