¹Huchiin Abija bel upate kiangah a ihmua, David khopi ah a vui ua, a sikin a tapa Asa a lalta: a lal sungin a gam uh kum sawm tak galmuangin a om

¹So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In his days the land was quiet ten years.

²Asain TOUPA a pathian mitmuhin thil hoih leh thil dik a hih seka:

²And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God:

³Gamdang pathian maitamte leh mun sangte a lamang a, suangphuhte a huchima, Asermite a hihtama;

³For he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves:

⁴Judate TOUPA a pi leh pute uh pathian zong ding leh a dan leh a thupiak jui dingin thu a pia,

⁴And commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.

⁵Huan, Judate khua tengtenga mun sangte leh ni-limte a la mang vek a; amah nuaiah a gam galmuangin a om hi.

⁵Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the images: and the kingdom was quiet before him.

⁶Huan Juda gamah kulh nei khua te a bawla, gam galmuangin a oma, huai kumtein kidouna a neikeia, TOUPAN galmuanna a piak jiak in.

⁶And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because the LORD had given him rest.

⁷Judate kiangah, hiai khuate bawl phanawn ni e, kulhin um le hang, in sangte, kulh kongkhakte. a kalhnate bawl ni: TOUPA I pathian I zontak jiak un gam I nuai uah a hongomta ahi: amah I zong ua, aman kil chih ning chiha galmunga omna honpeta ahi, a chi. Huchiin a bawl pha ua, a lamzang jelta uhi.

⁷Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.

⁸Huan, Asain Juda mi lum leh tei tawi mi sepaih nuai thum a neia: huan Benjamin mi phaw leh thal zangmi nuai nih leh sing giat; huai tengteng mi hat hangsan vek ahi uh.

⁸And Asa had an army of men that bare targets and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bare shields and drew bows, two hundred and fourscore thousand: all these were mighty men of valor.

⁹Huan, Ethiopia mi zera, sepaih maktaduai leh kangtalai za thum toh amau sual dingin a hongkuana; Maresa a hontunga

⁹And there came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian with an host of a thousand thousand, and three hundred chariots; and came unto Mareshah.

¹⁰Huchiin Asa bel sual din a vakuana, Maresa ah Zephatha guamah a vakiphalh uh.

¹⁰Then Asa went out against him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.

¹¹Huan, Asain TOUPA a pathian asam a, TOUPA kia loungal mi hat tak laka hat lou panpiha a om kei ua; aw TOUPA ka pathian uh, honpanpih ve; nang hon muangin na minin hiai mipite ka hongsual uhi. Aw TOUPA, ka pathian uh nahi a, mihingin nang hon zou kei uhen, a chi a.

¹¹And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let no man prevail against thee.

¹²Huchiin TOUPAN Asa leh Judate maah Ethiopia mite a suala; huchiin Ethiopia mite a taikek ta uh.

¹²So the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.

¹³Huan Asa leh a heuten Gerar tanin a delh ua, Ethiopia mite si a tam mahmah jiak un a pangthei takei ua; TOUPA leh a sepaihte maah vuallelhsakin a om teua; gallak sum tampi ala uh.

¹³And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them unto Gerar: and the Ethiopians were overthrown, that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the LORD, and before his host; and they carried away very much spoil.

¹⁴Gerar kima khua tengteng a sual ua, TOUPA a lau ua, khua tengteng a lok ua, gallak sum a tam ngial hi.Ganpute puaninte leng a sual ua, belam leh sangawngsau tampi a hawl ua, Jerusalem ah a pai nawnta uh..

¹⁴And they smote all the cities round about Gerar; for the fear of the LORD came upon them: and they spoiled all the cities; for there was exceeding much spoil in them.

¹⁵Ganpute puaninte leng a sual ua, belam leh sangawngsau tampi a hawl ua, Jerusalem ah a pai nawnta uh..

¹⁵They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.
