1In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.
1Judah manghai Ahaziah capa Joash kah kum kul kum thum vaengah Jehu capa Jehoahaz loh Israel te Samaria ah kum hlai rhih a manghai thil.
2And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.
2BOEIPA mik ah boethae a saii tih Israel aka tholh sak Nebat capa Jeroboam kah tholhnah dongah pongpa. Te lamlong te nong pawh.
3And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Aram, and into the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael, continually.
3Te dongah BOEIPA kah thintoek te Israel taengla sai tih anih tue khuiah tah amih te Aram manghai Hazael kut hmui neh Hazael capa Benhadad kut hmuiah a tloeng.
4And Jehoahaz besought the LORD, and the LORD hearkened unto him; for He saw the oppression of Israel, how that the king of Aram oppressed them. —
4Tedae Aram manghai loh amih a nen vanbangla Israel sokah nennah te a hmuh dongah Jehoahaz loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah nguek tih BOEIPA loh a ol a hnatun pah.
5And the LORD gave Israel a deliverer, so that they went out from under the hand of the Arameans; and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents, as beforetime.
5BOEIPA loh Israel aka khang ham te a paek dongah Aram kut hmui lamloh loeih uh. Te dongah Israel ca khaw hlaem hlavai kah bangla a dap ah kho a sak uh.
6Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, wherewith he made Israel to sin, but walked therein; and there remained the Asherah also in Samaria. —
6Jeroboam im kah tholhnah lamloh nong uh pawh. A khuiah Israel aka tholh la aka tholh sak dongah te pongpa tih Asherah khaw Samaria ah pai.
7For there was not left to Jehoahaz of the people save fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Aram destroyed them, and made them like the dust in threshing.
7Jehoahaz taengah pilnam khaw a paih pah pawt dongah marhang caem sawmnga, leng parha neh rhalkap thawng rha bueng dawk a om pah. Amih te Aram manghai loh a milh sak tih amih te laipi a til phoeikah bangla a khueh.
8Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
8Jehoahaz kah ol noi neh a saii boeih neh a thayung thamal te khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
9And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son reigned in his stead.
9Jehoahaz te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah anih te Samaria ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Joash te anih yueng la manghai.
10In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years.
10Judah manghai Joash kah kum sawmthum kum rhih vaengah Jehoahaz capa Jehoash loh Samaria ah Israel te kum hlai rhuk a manghai thil.
11And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin; but he walked therein.
11BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii tih Nebat capa Jeroboam kah tholhnah cungkuem lamloh a nong pawt dongah a khuiah Israel aka tholh sak te ni a vai.
12Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
12Joash kah ol noi neh a saii boeih khaw, Judah manghai Amaziah a vathoh thil vaengkah a thayung thamal khaw, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
13And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne; and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
13Joash te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah anih kah ngolkhoel dongah Jeroboam ngol. Joash te Samaria ah a Israel manghai rhoek taengah a up.
14Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he was to die; and Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over him, and said: 'My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof!'
14Elisha te a tloh nue tih a duek tom vaengah anih taengla Israel manghai Joash te suntla. Te vaengah a maelhmai a rhah thil tih, “A pa, a pa, Israel kah leng neh a marhang caem,” a ti.
15And Elisha said unto him: 'Take bow and arrows'; and he took unto him bow and arrows.
15Te vaengah Elisha loh anih te, “Lii neh thaltang lo lah,” a ti nah dongah amah ham lii neh thaltang te a loh.
16And he said to the king of Israel: 'Put thy hand upon the bow'; and he put his hand upon it. And Elisha laid his hands upon the king's hands.
16Te phoeiah Israel manghai te, “Na kut te lii dongah tloeng,” a ti nah. A kut a tloeng van neh Elisha loh a kut te manghai kut soah a tloeng.
17And he said: 'Open the window eastward'; and he opened it. Then Elisha said: 'Shoot'; and he shot. And he said: 'The LORD'S arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory against Aram; for thou shalt smite the Arameans in Aphek, till thou have consumed them.'
17Te phoeiah, “Khothoeng bangbuet te ong lah,” a ti nah tih a ong. Te vaengah Elisha loh, “Kap lah,” a ti nah tih a kah. Te phoeiah, “BOEIPA kah loeihnah thaltang neh Aram lamloh loeihnah thaltang, Aram te a thok hil Aphek ah na ngawn pawn ni,” a ti nah.
18And he said: 'Take the arrows'; and he took them. And he said unto the king of Israel: 'Smite upon the ground'; and he smote thrice, and stayed.
18Te phoeiah, “Thaltang te lo lah,” a ti nah tih a loh. Tedae Israel manghai te, “Diklai taam thil,” a ti nah hatah voei thum a taam vaengah vik pai.
19And the man of God was wroth with him, and said: 'Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Aram till thou hadst consumed it; whereas now thou shalt smite Aram but thrice.'
19Te dongah Pathen kah hlang te anih taengah a thintoek tih, “Voei nga voei rhuk khaw na taam vetih Aram te a thok hil na ngawn mako. Aram te voei thum bueng ni na ngawn thai pawn eh?,” a ti nah.
20And Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the bands of the Moabites used to invade the land at the coming in of the year.
20Tedae Elisha duek tih a up uh nen tah a kum a thok ah Moab caem loh khohmuen te a muk.
21And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha; and as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
21Te vaengkah amih hlang aka up rhoek om tih caem te lawt a hmuh. Te dongah hlang te Elisha kah phuel ah a voeih uh tih cet uh. Tedae hlang loh Elisha kah rhuh te a ben vaengah tah hing tih amah kho dongah koep pai.
22And Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
22Jehoahaz tue khuiah tah Aram manghai Hazael loh Israel te a nen.
23But the LORD was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither hath He cast them from His presence until now.
23Tedae BOEIPA loh amih te a rhen tih amih te a haidam. Abraham, Isaak neh Jakob taengkah a paipi kongah amih taengla mael. Amih phae ham a ngaih pawt dongah ni tahae duela a mikhmuh lamloh amih te a voeih pawh.
24And Hazael king of Aram died; and Ben-hadad his son reigned in his stead.
24Aram manghai Hazael a duek van neh a capa Benhadad te anih yueng la manghai.
25And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash smite him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
25Te daengah Jehoahaz capa Jehoash te mael tih khopuei rhoek te Hazael capa Benhadad kut lamloh koep a lat. Te te a napa Jehoahaz kut lamloh a loh pah dongah Joash loh anih te caem neh voei thum a ngawn tih Israel khopuei rhoek te koep a lat.
