2 Kings 21
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hephzi-bah.
1Manasseh siangpahrang ah oh naah saning hathaihnetto ni oh vop; anih mah Jerusalem to saning quipangato pacoeng, pangato uk. Anih amno ih ahmin loe Hephzibah.
2And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, after the abominations of the nations, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
2Anih loe Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to sak; anih loe Angraeng mah Israel caanawk hmaa hoi haek pae ih Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk mah sak ih panuet thok hmuen to sak.
3For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made an Asherah, as did Ahab king of Israel, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
3Ampa Hezekiah mah phraek ih hmuensangnawk to anih mah sak let; Israel siangpahrang Ahab mah sak ih baktih toengah, anih mah Baal hmaicamnawk to sak let moe, Asherah thingnawk to tling let; cakaehnawk boih to a bok moe, nihcae hmaa ah akuep.
4And he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof the LORD said: 'In Jerusalem will I put My name.'
4Angraeng mah, Ka hmin loe Jerusalem ah ka suek han, tiah thuih ih Angraeng im ah hmaicamnawk to a sak.
5And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.
5Angraeng ih imthung longhmaa hnetto haih ah, cakaehnawk hanah hmaicam to a sak pae.
6And he made his son to pass through the fire, and practised soothsaying, and used enchantments, and appointed them that divined by a ghost or a familiar spirit: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him.
6Anih loe a capa to hmai angbawnhaih ah patoh; atue khethaih, miklet sakhaih, ma-uih hoi pakhra kawkhaihnawk to patoh pongah, Angraeng palungphuisak hanah, anih mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak.
7And he set the graven image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which the LORD said to David and to Solomon his son: 'In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put My name for ever;
7Angraeng mah, David hoi ampa Solomon khaeah, Israel acaengnawk boih thungah ka qoih ih, hae im hoi Jerusalem ah, Ka Hmin dungzan ah ka suek han, tiah thuih ih Angraeng ih imthung ah, angmah thuk ih Asherah thing hoi krangnawk to a suek;
8neither will I cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers; if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that My servant Moses commanded them.'
8ka thuih ih loknawk hoi ka tamna Mosi mah paek ih daannawk to mah acoehaih hoiah pazui o nahaeloe, ampanawk khaeah ka paek ih prae thung hoiah Israel kaminawk ih khok to kalah bangah kang thuisak mak ai, tiah a naa.
9But they hearkened not; and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than did the nations, whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.
9Toe nihcae mah lok tahngai pae o ai; Angraeng mah Israel kaminawk hmaa ah paro ih kaminawk mah sak ih hmuen pong kamtlai ah sethaih saksak hanah, Manasseh mah to kaminawk to zoek.
10And the LORD spoke by His servants the prophets, saying:
10Angraeng mah a tamna tahmaanawk patohhaih rang hoiah lokthuih,
11'Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, that were before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols;
11Judah siangpahrang Manasseh loe Amor kaminawk mah anih hmaa ah, sak o ih hmuen pong panuet thok kue hmuen to sak boeh; angmah sak ih krangnawk hoiah Judah kaminawk to zaehaih saksak boeh pongah,
12therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Behold, I bring such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.
12Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah, Khenah, Tamthang thaih kaminawk boih, naa amthaksak hanah, Jerusalem hoi Judah nuiah amrohaih ka phaksak han.
13And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
13Jerusalem vangpui nuiah Samaria tahhaih qui hoi Ahab imthung takoh tahhaih qui to ka payang han; kami mah sabae pasaeh pacoengah hmaawt baktih toengah, Jerusalem to ka hmaawt bit moe, ka palet dak han.
14And I will cast off the remnant of Mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;
14Kanghmat kaimah ih qawknawk to ka pahnawt moe, nihcae ih misanawk khaeah ka paek han; misanawk mah nihcae to muk o ueloe, hmuenmae to lomh pae o tih;
15because they have done that which is evil in My sight, and have provoked Me, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.'
15Izip prae thung hoiah nihcae ampanawk ka zaehhoih nathuem hoi kamtong vahni ni khoek to, kai palung ang phui o sak moe, ka mikhnukah nihcae mah kahoih ai hmuen to sak o, tiah a naa.
16Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
16Toe Manasseh mah loe zaehaih tawn ai kaminawk to paroeai athii longsak; Jerusalem to athii hoiah koisak; anih loe Judah kaminawk zaehaih saksak khue ai ah, Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to a sak.
17Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
17Manasseh siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk, a sak ih hmuennawk hoi a sak ih zaehaihnawk boih loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
18And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza; and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
18Manasseh loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, siangpahrang angmah ih takha, Uzza takha thungah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Amon to siangpahrang ah oh.
19Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
19Amon loe siangpahrang ah oh naah, saning pumphae, hnetto oh boeh; anih mah saning hnetto thung Jerusalem to uk. Anih amno ih ahmin loe Jotbah ah kaom, Haruz canu Meshulemet.
20And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as did Manasseh his father.
20Anih loe ampa Manasseh baktiah Angraeng mikhnukah kahoih ai hmuen to sak.
21And he walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them.
21Anih loe ampa ih loklam to pazui moe, ampa mah bok ih krangnawk to a bok, krangnawk hmaa ah akuep.
22And he forsook the LORD, the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the LORD.
22Anih loe ampanawk ih Angraeng Sithaw to pahnawt moe, Angraeng ih loklam ah caeh ai.
23And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
23Amon ih tamnanawk mah anih to hum hanah pacaeng o moe, siangpahrang angmah im ah hum o.
24But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
24Prae thung ih kaminawk mah Amon siangpahrang hum kaminawk to hum o boih pacoengah, a capa Josiah to siangpahrang ah suek o.
25Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
25Amon siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuen hoi a sak ih hmuennawk boih loe, Judah siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tatik o na ai maw?
26And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza; and Josiah his son reigned in his stead.
26Anih loe angmah ih takha Uzza ah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Josiah to sianpahrang ah oh.
