¹Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Hephzibah.

¹Manasi A lal pattungin kum sawm leh kum niha upa ahia; Jerusalem ah kum sawmnga leh kum nga a lal: a nu min Hephzi-bi ahi.

²He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, after the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.

²Huan, TOUPAN Israel suante maa a delhkhiaksa namten thil kihhuai tak a hih sekte uh bang, TOUPA mitmuhin thil hoih lou pipite a hihsek a.

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 worshiped all the army of the sky, and served them.

³A pa Hezekiain a hihsiatsa mun sangte a dingsak nawna; Israel kumpipa Ahab hih bangin Baal maitamte a dingsaka, Asera te a bawla, vana om tengteng a biaa, a na uh a sem.

⁴He built altars in the house of Yahweh, of which Yahweh said, “I will put my name in Jerusalem.”

⁴TOUPAN Jerusalem ah ka min ka omsak ding, a chihna TOUPA inah maitamte a bawla.

⁵He built altars for all the army of the sky in the two courts of the house of Yahweh.

⁵TOUPA in huang sung intual nih ah vana om tengteng adin maitam a bawl.

⁶He made his son to pass through the fire, and practiced sorcery, and used enchantments, and dealt with those who had familiar spirits, and with wizards: he worked much evil in the sight of Yahweh, to provoke him to anger.

⁶Huan, a tapa meiah a lutsaka, aisan te bang a chinga, bum te bang a hiha, dawi aisansiam jawlte leh bumsiamte a guaiguai hi: TOUPA mitmuhin thil hoih lou thupi mahmah a hehsak dingin a hih nak sek hi.

⁷He set the engraved image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which Yahweh 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 forever;

⁷Huan, TOUPAN David leh a tapa Solomon kianga, Hiai in leh Jerusalem khua, Israel chi tengteng laka ka telah ka min khantawnin ka omsak ding;

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.”

⁸Thu ka piak tengteng leh ka sikha Mosiin dan a piak bang tengteng a pom peuh mah uleh a pi leh pu te uh ka piaksa gam akipan Israelte khete leng ka kalsuan khe sak nawn sam kei ding, ana chih khitsa inah Asera lim a bawl a koiha.

⁹But they didn’t listen: and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than the nations did whom Yahweh destroyed before the children of Israel.

⁹Himahleh apom nuamkei ua; Toupan Israel suante maa a delhkhiaksa namte hih sang thama thupizaw thil hihkhial ding in Manasiin mite a khemkhem a:

¹⁰Yahweh spoke by his servants the prophets, saying,

¹⁰Huan, Toupan a sikha jawlneite zangin thu a gena;

¹¹“Because Manasseh king of Judah has done these abominations, and has done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, who were before him, and has made Judah also to sin with his idols;

¹¹Juda kumpipa Manasiin hiai thil kihhuai takte a hih a, aman Amorte sang thamin a hih khial thupi hi, Judate a milimtea thil hihkhelhsak jiakin:

¹²therefore thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, ‘Behold, I bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever hears of it, both his ears shall tingle.

¹²Toupa, Israel Pathian in hi chi in achi: Ngai dih ua, Jerusalem leh Juda tungah a za peuhmahte bil langnih in khengzou khop thil hoih lou ka hontungsak sin hi.

¹³I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.

¹³Samari tehna khau leh Ahab inko ulum khai Jerusalem tungah ka khung ding a: huan, min a kuang a nula, a kilumlet sak bang mai in Jerusalem ka nul ding hi.

¹⁴I will cast off the remnant of my inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies. They will become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;

¹⁴Huan, ka goutan om sun te ka pai khe ding a, a mel ma te uh khut ah ka pe ding:

¹⁵because they have done that which is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even to this day.’”

¹⁵Huchi in a pi-le-pu te uh Aigupta gama a hong pawt nung uh tuni pha a ka mit muh a thil hoih lou pipi ahih ua, hon heh sak jiakun a melma te uh tengteng mat ding leh gallak ding ahi ding uh, chi in a chi a.

¹⁶Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, until he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; besides his sin with which he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh.

¹⁶Toupa mitmuh a thilhoihlou tak hih a Judate thil hih khial sak a khelhna simlou in Manasi in poikhoihlou sisan nakpi tak in a suah lai a, Jerusalem dung leh vai a dim hi.

¹⁷Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

¹⁷Huchi in Manasi tanchin dang te, a thil hih teng teng, a thil hih khelh te Juda kumpipate lal lai thu gelh na bu ah a tuang ahi kei mo?

¹⁸Manasseh 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 place.

¹⁸Huan, Manasi a pi-le-pute kiangah a ihmu a, Uzza huana amah in chin huan ah a vui ta uh; huchi in atapa Amon a sikin a lal ta hi.

¹⁹Amon was twenty-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 bel a lal pattungin kum sawmnih leh kum nih a upa ahi; Jerusalem ah kum nih a lal a; a nu min Mesulemeth, Jotba khua a Haruz tanu ahi.

²⁰He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as Manasseh his father did.

²⁰Huan, a pa Manasi hih bangmah TOUPA mitmuhin thil hoih lou tak ahih sek nak hi.

²¹He walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshiped them:

²¹A pa lampi tot tengteng a tawn teia, milim na a septe a sema, a be tei hi:

²²and he forsook Yahweh, the God of his fathers, and didn’t walk in the way of Yahweh.

²²Huchiin TOUPA, a pi leh pute Pathian a paisan a, TOUPA lampi a tawn kei.

²³The servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.

²³Huan, Amon sikhaten amah a guk sawm ua, kumpipa amah inah a hih lum uhi.

²⁴But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his place.

²⁴Himahleh huai gama miten kumpipa Amon guk sawmmite tengteng a hihlum thuk vek ua; huchiin huai gama miten a tapa Josia a sikin kumpipa dingin a bawl ta uhi.

²⁵Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

²⁵Huchiin Amon thilhih tanchin dangte Juda kumpipate lal lai thu gelhna bu ah a tuang ahi kei maw?Huan, Uzza huana amah hanah a vui ua: huan, a tapa Josia a sikin alal pan hi.

²⁶He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza: and Josiah his son reigned in his place.

²⁶Huan, Uzza huana amah hanah a vui ua: huan, a tapa Josia a sikin alal pan hi.
