2 Chronicles 12
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1And it came to pass, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of the LORD, and all Israel with him.
1Rehoboam mah ukhaih prae to caksak moe, thacak naah, anih hoi Israel kaminawk boih mah Angraeng ih kaalok to pahnawt o.
2And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had dealt treacherously with the LORD,
2Anih loe Angraeng hmaa ah zaehaih sak pongah, Rehoboam siangpahrang ah ohhaih saning tarukto naah, anih to Izip siangpahrang Shishak mah tuk,
3with twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen; and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt; the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.
3hrangleeng sang cumvai hnet, hrang hoi misatuh kami sing tarukto hoi kroek laek ai Izip kami, Lubbin kami, Sukkim hoi Ethiopia kaminawk to angzoh o.
4And he took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came unto Jerusalem.
4Anih mah Judah prae ih kacak vangpuinawk to lak pacoengah, Jerusalem ah angzoh.
5Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them: 'Thus saith the LORD: Ye have forsaken Me, therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.'
5Shishak siangpahrang pongah, tahmaa Shemaiah loe Jerusalem ah amkhueng Rehoboam hoi Judah zaehoikungnawk khaeah caeh moe, nihcae khaeah, Angraeng mah, Kai nang pahnawt o pongah, nangcae doeh Shishak ban ah kang pahnawt o toeng boeh, tiah thuih, tiah a naa.
6Then the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said: 'The LORD is righteous.'
6Israel zaehoikungnawk hoi siangpahrang loe poekhaih pahnaem o moe, Angraeng loe toeng, tiah thuih o.
7And when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying: 'They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them; but I will grant them some deliverance, and My wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
7Poek pahnaemhaih tawnh o, tiah Angraeng mah hnuk naah, Angraeng ih lok Shemaiah khaeah angzoh; nihcae mah poekhaih pahnaem o pongah, nihcae to kam rosak mak ai; loihaih to ka paek han; Shishak ih ban hoi Jerusalem nuiah palungphuihaih ka krai mak ai.
8Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know My service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.'
8Toe nihcae to Shishak siangpahrang ih tamna ah ka paek han; to tiah ni ka toksakhaih hoi minawk kalah siangpahrang ih toksakhaih to pathlaeng o thai tih, tiah a naa.
9So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he took all away; he took away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
9Izip siangpahrang Shishak loe Jerusalem to tuk moe, Angraeng ih im hoi siangpahrang im ih hmuennawk to lak boih; Solomon mah sui hoiah sak ih misa angvaenghaih aphawnawk to a lak pae.
10And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, that kept the door of the king's house.
10To ih sui aphaw zuengah Rehoboam siangpahrang mah sumkamling hoiah aphaw to sak moe, siangpahrang im ih kalen koek khongkha toep kami khaeah paek.
11And it was so, that as oft as the king entered into the house of the LORD, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard-chamber.
11Siangpahrang mah Angraeng ih im thungah akun naah, misatoep kaminawk mah aphaw to lak o moe, misatoep kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen ah suek o let.
12And when he humbled himself, the anger of the LORD turned from him, that He would not destroy him altogether; and moreover in Judah there were good things found.
12Rehoboam mah poek pahnaem naah, Angraeng palungphuihaih to dip let, anih to amrosak ai; Judah prae thungah doeh khosak hoihaih to oh.
13So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned; for Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there; and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
13Rehoboam siangpahrang loe Judah ah kacakah khosak moe, siangpahrang ah oh poe; Rehoboam siangpahrang ah oh tangsuek naah saning quipalito oh boeh; Angraeng angmah ih ahmin oh hanah, Israel acaengnawk boih thung hoiah, Angraeng mah qoih ih Jerusalem ah, saning hatlai sarihto thung siangpahrang ah oh.
14And he did that which was evil, because he set not his heart to seek the LORD.
14Palungthin hoiah Angraeng to pakrong ai pongah, kasae hmuen to a sak.
15Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the manner of genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
15Rehoboam mah sak ih hmuennawk boih loe, amtong tangsuek hoi boeng khoek to, tahmaa Shemaiah ih cabu, tahmaa Iddo ih acaeng anghumhaih kawng pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw? Rehoboam hoi Jeroboam loe hing thung misa ah oh hoi poe.
16And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David; and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
16Rehoboam loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, David vangpui ah aphum o. Anih zuengah a capa Abijah mah prae to uk.
