< Yeremiya 52 >

1 Zedekiya anali wa zaka 21 pamene analowa ufumu, ndipo analamulira zaka 11 ku Yerusalemu. Amayi ake anali Hamutali mwana wa Yeremiya wa ku Libina.
Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
2 Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova, monga momwe anachitira Yehoyakimu.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 Chifukwa cha zonse zimene zinachitika ku Yerusalemu ndi ku Yuda Yehova anakwiyira anthu ake mpaka kuwachotsa pamaso pake. Tsono Zedekiya anawukira mfumu ya ku Babuloni.
For through the anger of the LORD did it come to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until He had cast them out from His presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4 Choncho mʼchaka cha chisanu ndi chinayi cha ulamuliro wa Zedekiya, mwezi wakhumi, pa tsiku la khumi, Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni anabwera ndi ankhondo ake onse kudzathira nkhondo Yerusalemu. Anamanga misasa ndi mitumbira yankhondo kunja kuzungulira mzindawo.
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
5 Mzindawo unazingidwa mpaka chaka cha khumi ndi chimodzi cha ulamuliro wa Mfumu Zedekiya.
So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
6 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chinayi la mwezi wachinayi njala inakula kwambiri mu mzindamo kotero kuti munalibe chakudya choti anthu nʼkudya.
In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
7 Tsono linga la mzindawo linabowoledwa, ndipo ankhondo onse anathawa. Iwo anatuluka mu mzindamo usiku kudzera pa chipata cha pakati pa makoma awiri a pafupi ndi munda wa mfumu, ngakhale kuti Ababuloni anali atazinga mzindawo. Ndipo anathawira ku Araba,
Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden — now the Chaldeans were against the city round about — and they went by the way of the Arabah.
8 koma gulu la ankhondo la ku Babuloni linalondola mfumu Zedekiya ndi kumupeza mʼchigwa cha ku Yeriko. Ankhondo onse anamusiya yekha nabalalika.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
9 Anagwidwa napita naye kwa mfumu ya ku Babuloni ku Ribula mʼdziko la Hamati, kumene anagamula mlandu wake.
Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment upon him.
10 Ku Ribulako mfumu ya ku Babuloni inapha ana aamuna a Zedekiya iyeyo akuona; ndiponso inapha akuluakulu onse a ku Yuda.
And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes; he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
11 Ndipo inamukolowola maso Zedekiya, ndi kumumanga ndi maunyolo a mkuwa nʼkupita naye ku Babuloni kumene inakamuyika mʼndende kuti akhalemo moyo wake wonse.
And he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
12 Mwezi wachisanu, pa tsiku lakhumi, chaka cha 19 cha ulamuliro wa Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni, Nebuzaradani mtsogoleri wa ankhondo a mfumu, amene amatumikira mfumu ya ku Babuloni, anabwera ku Yerusalemu.
Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem;
13 Ndipo anatentha Nyumba ya Yehova, nyumba ya mfumu ndi nyumba zonse za mu Yerusalemu. Anatentha nyumba iliyonse.
and he burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great man's house, burned he with fire.
14 Tsono gulu lonse lankhondo la Ababuloni limene linali ndi mtsogoleri wa ankhondo a mfumu uja linagwetsa malinga onse ozungulira Yerusalemu.
And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem round about.
15 Nebuzaradani mtsogoleri wa ankhondo anatenga anthu amene anatsala mu mzindamo, anthu aluso pamodzi ndi amene anadzipereka kale kwa mfumu ya ku Babuloni kupita nawo ku ukapolo ku Babuloni.
Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest sort of the people, and the residue of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
16 Komabe Nebuzaradani mtsogoleri wa ankhondo anasiya anthu ena onse osaukitsitsa a mʼdzikomo kuti azigwira ntchito mʼminda ya mpesa ndi minda ina.
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
17 Ababuloni anaphwanya nsanamira za mkuwa, maphaka ndi chimbiya chamkuwa zimene zinali mʼNyumba ya Yehova. Anatenga mkuwa wonsewo nʼkupita nazo ku Babuloni.
And the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases and the brazen sea that were in the house of the LORD, did the Chaldeans break in pieces, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
18 Ankhondowo anatenganso mbiya, zochotsera phulusa, zozimitsira nyale, mbale zofukizira lubani, zikho pamodzi ndi ziwiya zina zonse za mkuwa zimene ankagwiritsira ntchito mʼNyumba ya Yehova.
The pots also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the pans, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
19 Nebuzaradani uja anatenganso mabeseni, ziwiya zosonkhapo moto, mbale zowazira madzi, zoyikapo nyale, zipande zofukizira lubani ndi zikho ndi zina zonse zagolide ndi siliva.
And the cups, and the fire-pans, and the basins, and the pots, and the candlesticks, and the pans, and the bowls — that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver — the captain of the guard took away.
20 Nsanamira ziwiri zija, chimbiya, maphaka ndi ngʼombe khumi ndi ziwiri za mkuwa zochirikizira chimbiyacho zimene mfumu Solomoni anapangira Nyumba ya Yehova kulemera kwake kunali kosawerengeka.
The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve brazen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made for the house of the LORD — the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
21 Nsanamira imodzi kutalika kwake kunali mamita asanu ndi atatu, akazunguliza chingwe inali mamita asanu ndi theka; mʼkati mwake munali bowo ndipo kuchindikala kwake kunali zala zinayi.
And as for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a line of twelve cubits did compass it; and the thickness thereof was four fingers; it was hollow.
22 Pamwamba pa nsanamira iliyonse panali mutu wamkuwa umene kutalika kwake kunali mamita awiri. Pozungulira pake panali ukonde ndi makangadza, zonsezo za mkuwa. Nsanamira inayo inalinso ndi makangadza ake ndipo inali yofanana ndi inzake ija.
And a capital of brass was upon it; and the height of the one capital was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the capital round about, all of brass; and the second pillar also had like unto these, and pomegranates.
23 Mʼmbali mwake munali makangadza 96; makangadza onse pamodzi analipo 100 kuzungulira ukonde onse.
And there were ninety and six pomegranates on the outside; all the pomegranates were a hundred upon the network round about.
24 Mtsogoleri wa ankhondo uja, anagwira Seraya mkulu wa ansembe ndi Zefaniya, wachiwiri wa mkulu wa ansembe ndi alonda atatu apachipata.
And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door;
25 Mu mzindamo anagwiramo mkulu amene ankalamulira ankhondo, ndi alangizi amfumu asanu ndi awiri. Anagwiranso mlembi wa mtsogoleri wa ankhondo, amene ankalemba anthu mʼdzikomo, pamodzi ndi anthu ena 60 amene anali mu mzindamo.
and out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war; and seven men of them that saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the host, who mustered the people of the land; and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.
26 Nebuzaradani, mtsogoleri wa ankhondoyo anawatenga onse napita nawo kwa mfumu ya ku Babuloni ku Ribula.
And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
27 Ku Ribulako, mʼdziko la Hamati, mfumu ya ku Babuloniyo inalamula kuti anthuwo aphedwe. Motero anthu a ku Yuda anapita ku ukapolo, kutali ndi dziko lawo.
And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
28 Chiwerengero cha anthu amene Nebukadinezara anawatenga kupita nawo ku ukapolo ndi ichi: Mʼchaka cha chisanu ndi chiwiri cha ulamuliro wake, anatenga Ayuda 3,023;
This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand Jews and three and twenty;
29 mʼchaka cha 18 cha ulamuliro wa Nebukadinezara, anatenga anthu 832 kuchokera mu Yerusalemu;
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar, from Jerusalem, eight hundred thirty and two persons;
30 mʼchaka cha 23 cha ulamuliro wa Nebukadinezara, Nebuzaradani, mtsogoleri wa ankhondo a mfumu anagwira Ayuda 745 kupita ku ukapolo. Onse pamodzi analipo anthu 4,600.
in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty and five persons; all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
31 Mʼchaka chimene Evili-Merodaki analowa ufumu wa Babuloni, iye anakomera mtima Yehoyakini mfumu ya ku Yuda, namutulutsa mʼndende. Izi zinachitika pa tsiku la 25 la mwezi wa khumi ndi chiwiri zitatha zaka 37 chitengedwere Yehoyakimu ku ukapolo.
And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison.
32 Evili-Merodaki anakomera mtima Yehoyakini, namupatsa malo aulemu kuposa mafumu ena amene anali naye ku Babuloni.
And he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
33 Choncho Yehoyakini analoledwa kuvula zovala zake za ku ndende ndipo tsiku ndi tsiku ankadya ndi mfumu pa moyo wake wonse.
And he changed his prison garments, and did eat bread before him continually all the days of his life.
34 Tsiku ndi tsiku mfumu ya ku Babuloni inkamupatsa Yehoyakini phoso lake nthawi yonse ya moyo wake, mpaka pa nthawi ya imfa yake.
And for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him of the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
