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, for seventeen years.

¹Juda Kumpipa Ahazia tapa Joas kum sawmnih leh kum thum a lal kumin Jehu tapa Jehoahaz Israelte tungah Samari khua ah a lal pana, kum sawm leh kum sagih a lal hi.

²And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin; he departed not from them.

²Huan, Toupa mitmuhin thil hoihlou mahmah a hih seka, Israelte thil hihkhial saka a hih Nebat tapa Jeroboam khelhnate aman leng a ching teia, a paisan nawn kei hi.

³And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Ben-Hadad the son of Hazael, all those days.

³Huan, Toupa bel Israelte tungah a heh mahmah a, huchiin Suria kumpipa hazael khutah leh, Hazael tapa Benhadad khutah a pe pek hi.

⁴(And Jehoahaz besought Jehovah, and Jehovah hearkened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.

⁴Huan, Jehoahazin Toupa kiangah nget chihtakin a ngena, huan, Toupan a thu a ngaihkhiak saka; Israel simmoha a om ua, Suria kumpipan amau a simmoh dan lah a mu kikel ngala.

⁵And Jehovah gave Israel a saviour, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents as before.

⁵(Huchiin Toupan Israelte hondampa a piaa, huchiin Suriate nuaia a om uh a pawt khia uh, Israel suante tuma lam bangin amau in lam ah a om kinken uhi.

⁶Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin: they walked therein; and there remained also the Asherah in Samaria.)

⁶Ahihhangin Israelte thil hihkhialsaka a hih Jeroboam inkote khelhnate a paisankei ua, a ching lailai zosop ua; huan, Samari khuaah Asera leng a om lailai bawn. )

⁷For he had left of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the dust by threshing.

⁷Jehoahaz bel a mite laka sakol tung tuang mi sawmnga leh, kangtalai sawm leh, sepaih singkhat chih louh a neih a phal sak ngak keia; Suria kumpipan a hih mang veka, leivui chil jan bang maiin a bawl ahi.

⁸And 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?

⁸Huchiin Jehoahaz tanchin dangte, a thilhih tengtengte, a thil hihtheihdante Israel kumpipate lal lai thu gelhna bu-ah a tuang ahi kei maw?

⁹And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son reigned in his stead.

⁹Huan, Jehoahaz bel a pi leh pute kiangah a ihmutaa; huan, Samari khuaah a vui ua; huan, a tapa Jehoas a sikin a lalta hi.

¹⁰In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, for sixteen years.

¹⁰Juda kumpipa Joas kum sawm thum leh kum sagih a lal kumin Jehoahaz tapa Jehoas bel Israelte tungah Samari khuaah a lal pana, kum sawm leh kum guk a lal.

¹¹And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah; he departed not from any of the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin: he walked therein.

¹¹Huan, Toupa mitmuhin thil hoih lou pipi a hihseka; Israelte thil hihkhiaksaka a hih Nebat tapa Jeroboam khelhna tengtengte paisan keia, a ching lailai zosop hi.

¹²And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

¹²Huchiin Jehoas tanchin dangte, a thilhih tengteng, Juda kumpipa Amazia a sual laia a thilhih theihdante Israel kumpipate lal lai thu gelhna bu-ah a tuang a hikei maw?

¹³And Joash slept with his fathers, and Jeroboam sat upon his throne; and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

¹³Huan, Jehoas a pi leh pute kiangah a ihmutaa; huan Jeroboam a laltutphah tungah a tua huan, Jehoas bel Samari Khuaah Israel kumpipate lakah a vui uhi.

¹⁴And Elisha fell sick of his sickness in which he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over his face, and said, My father, my father! the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof!

¹⁴Huan, Elisa bel a sihpihna ding chinatnain a na chinata a; huchiin Israel kumpipa Jehoas a kiangah a hoh suka, a kaha, pa, pa, Israelte kangtalai leh sakol tung tuang mite heutu, a chi a.

¹⁵And Elisha said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took a bow and arrows.

¹⁵Huan, Elisain a kiangah, Thalpeu leh thalte honla dih, a chi a; huan, thalpeu leh thalte a honla a.

¹⁶And he said to the king of Israel, Put thy hand upon the bow. And he put his hand [upon it]; and Elisha put his hands upon the king's hands,

¹⁶Huan, Israelte kumpipa kiangah, Thalpeuh Lenin, a chi a; huchiin a lena. Huan, Elisain kumpipa khut tungah a khut a nga a.

¹⁷and said, Open the window eastward. And he opened [it]. And Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, An arrow of Jehovah's deliverance, even an arrow of deliverance from the Syrians; and thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou hast consumed [them].

¹⁷Huan, aman, Suahlam tohlet hong dih, a chi a; huan, a hon honga. Huan, Elisain, kapin, a chi a; huan, a kapa. Huan, aman, Toupa zohna thal, Suriate zohna thal ahi; Aphek khuaah Suriate mang thang vek zou khopin na zou sin hi, a chi a.

¹⁸And he said, Take the arrows. And he took [them]. And he said to the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And he smote thrice, and stayed.

¹⁸Huan, Thal honla dih. Huan, Israel kumpipa kiangah, Lei sun dih, a chi a; huchiin thum vei a suna, a tawp.

¹⁹And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then wouldest thou have smitten the Syrians till thou hadst consumed [them]; whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice.

¹⁹Huchiin Pathian mi bel a tungah a heha, Nga vei guk vei na sut ding eive; huchiin Suriate mangthang vek khopin na zou ding. Ahihhangin Suriate thum vei kia zou ding na hi ta ve, a chi a.

²⁰And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.

²⁰Huan, Elisa a si a, a vui uh. Huan, kum ahong kiveiin, Moabte pawlten a gam uh a hongsim ua.

²¹And it came to pass as they were burying a man, that behold, they saw the band, and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha; and the man went [down], and touched the bones of Elisha, and he revived, and stood upon his feet.

²¹Huan, mi khat a vui sin lai tak un hichi ahi a, ngaiin, mi pawl khat a mu ua; huchiin huai mi Elisa hanah a khe mawk ua; huan, a luangin Elisa guhte a sukkhak takin, a hong hing nawna, a dingta hi.

²²And Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.

²²Huan, Suria kumpipa Hazaelin Jehoahaz damsung tengin Israelte a simmoh gige a.

²³And Jehovah was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and he would not destroy them, neither did he cast them from his presence up to that time.

²³Himahleh Toupan Abraham kiang khawng, Jacob kiang khawng a thu a khun jiakin amau a hehpiha, a lainata, a limsaka, amau a hihmang nuam keia, a kianga kipan a paikhe nuam kei thek hi.

²⁴And Hazael king of Syria died, and Ben-Hadad his son reigned in his stead.

²⁴Huan, Suria kumpipa Hazael a si a; a tapa Benhada a sikin a lal hi.Huan, Jehoahaz tapa Jehoasin Hazael tapa Benhadadin a pa Jehoahaz a sima, khua a laksakte a sut nawn, Joasin thum vei a zou a, Israel gam khuate a la nawn hi.

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 in the war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.

²⁵Huan, Jehoahaz tapa Jehoasin Hazael tapa Benhadadin a pa Jehoahaz a sima, khua a laksakte a sut nawn, Joasin thum vei a zou a, Israel gam khuate a la nawn hi.
