< Jeremiah 52 >
1 Zedekiah teh siangpahrang a tawknae kum 21 touh a pha. Jerusalem vah kum 11 touh a uk, a manu min teh Hamutal, Libnah kho e Jeremiah e canu doeh.
Zedekiah was a son of twenty-one years when he first began to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.
2 Jehoiakim ni ouk a sak e patetlah BAWIPA e mithmu vah hawihoehnae a sak.
And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA a lungkhuek teh a hmalah hoi he takhoe e totouh Jerusalem hoi Judah ram dawk hete hnonaw a pha. Hattoteh Zedekiah teh Babilon siangpahrang taranlahoi taran a thaw.
And so the fury of the Lord was toward Jerusalem, and toward Judah, even until he cast them away from his face. And Zedekiah drew away from the king of Babylon.
4 A uknae kum 9, thapa yung hra, hnin 10 nah Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar hoi a ransanaw pueng Jerusalem tuk hanlah a tho awh. A roe sin awh teh tengpam petkâkalup lah a tungpup awh.
And it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, came against Jerusalem. And they besieged it, and they built fortifications against it, on every side.
5 Hottelah siangpahrang Zedekiah abawinae kum 11 totouh khopui hah king a ven awh.
And the city was besieged, until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
6 Thapa yung pali, hnin 9 nah khopui dawk takang ka patawpoung lah a tho sak teh, ram thung rangpuinaw ca hane banghai awm hoeh toe.
Then, in the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, a famine gripped the city. And there was no nourishment for the people of the land.
7 Hat toteh, khopui kalupnae tapang a thuk awh teh, ransanaw pueng a yawng awh. Siangpahrang takha koe e tapang kahni rahak e longkha koehoi a tâco awh teh, tangmin vah khopui thung hoi a yawng awh. Khaldean taminaw khopui tengpam ao awh eiteh, a yawng lam lah a cei awh.
And the city was broken, and all the men of war fled, and they departed from the city at night by way of the gate which is between the two walls, and which leads to the king’s garden, while the Chaldeans were besieging the city all around, and they went away by the road that leads to the wilderness.
8 Hatei, Khaldean ransanaw ni siangpahrang hah a pâlei awh teh, Jeriko yawn dawk rek a pha awh. A ransanaw pueng ahni koehoi a kâkapek awh.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king. And they overtook Zedekiah in the desert which is near Jericho. And all of his companions fled away from him.
9 Zedekiah a man awh teh Babilon siangpahrang koe Hamath ram e Riblah kho dawk a ceikhai awh teh, ahni ni ama kong dawk lawk a ceng.
And when they had captured the king, they led him away to the king of Babylon at Riblah, which is in the land of Hamath. And he spoke a judgment against him.
10 Babilon siangpahrang ni Zedekiah capa hah a mithmu roeroe vah a thei. Ribah vah Judah kahrawikungnaw pueng a thei.
And the king of Babylon cut the throats of the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the leaders of Judah at Riblah.
11 Zedekiah e mitmu hai a cawngkhawi pouh. Babilon siangpahrang ni sumbawtarui hoi a pâkhi teh, Babilon lah a ceikhai, a due totouh thongim vah a paung.
And he plucked out the eyes of Zedekiah, and he bound him with shackles, and the king of Babylon led him away to Babylon, and he placed him in the prison house, even until the day of his death.
12 Hahoi Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar abawinae kum 19, thapa yung panga, hnin hra nah siangpahrang karingkungnaw kahrawikung, Babilon siangpahrang hmalah ouk kangdout e Nebuzaradan teh Jerusalem vah a kâen.
Then, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, which is the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, arrived. And he was standing before the king of Babylon at Jerusalem.
13 BAWIPA e im hoi siangpahrang im hah hmai a sawi. Jerusalem e im kalenpoungnaw pueng hmai koung a sawi.
And he set fire to the house of the Lord, and to the house of the king, and to all the houses of Jerusalem. And every great house he burned with fire.
14 Khaldean ransa, siangpahrang karingkungnaw thung kaawmnaw pueng ni Jerusalem kalupnae teh a tengpam hoi he a raphoe awh.
And the entire army of the Chaldeans, who were with the chief of the military, destroyed the entire wall all around Jerusalem.
15 Hat toteh, karingkungnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni tami ka roedeng tangawn hoi, khopui thung kaawm rae tami pueng hoi Babilon siangpahrang koe ka kâhmoun tangcoungnaw hoi kacawirae kutsakkathoumnaw pueng hah san lah a ceikhai.
Then Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, took away some of the poor people, and some of the rest of the common people, who had remained in the city, and some of the fugitives, who had fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
16 Hatei, karingkungnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni ram dawk e ka roedeng tangawn hah takhakatawkkungnaw lah a hruek.
Yet truly, some of the poor of the land, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, left behind as vinedressers and farmers.
17 Hahoi BAWIPA im dawk e rahum khom, hoi BAWIPA im dawk e rahum tuiim hoi kawlungnaw hah Khaldean taminaw ni koung a kâbawng sak teh rahumnaw pueng Babilon lah a ceikhai awh.
The Chaldeans also broke apart the bronze pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord. And they took all the brass of these things to Babylon.
18 Hlaam hoi hraba kawnnae, paitei, ampaikei, sumpacen, ouk a hro awh e rahum hnopai pueng he a la awh.
And they took the cooking pots, and the hooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the bronze vessels that had been used in the ministry.
19 Manang hoi hrabakawnnae, tongben, hlaam, hmaiimkhoknaw, sumpacen, sui hoi sak e hoi, ngun hoi sak e pueng teh, karingkungnaw kahrawikung ni he a la.
And the chief of the military took the water pots, and the censers, and the pitchers, and the basins, and the lampstands, and the mortars, and the little cups, whatever was gold, for the gold, and whatever was silver, for the silver,
20 Rahum hoi sak e khom kahni touh, maitotan hlaikahni touh, rahum tuiim pâhungnae, Solomon siangpahrang ni BAWIPA im hanelah a sak e naw hah, hete rahum pacen tawngben pueng teh boeba hai khing leklak hoeh.
as well as the two pillars, and the one brass sea, and the twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord. There was no weight of brass left behind out of all these vessels.
21 Hahoi khom buet touh dong 18 touh a rasang teh, petkâtue lah dong 12 touh a pha. A tha e dek pali touh a pha teh, a lungui vuk kâko.
Now concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a cord of twelve cubits encircled it. Moreover, its thickness was four fingers, and the interior was hollow.
22 A som dawk rahum kaco e ao. A lû kacoum e teh dong panga touh a pha. A lû ka coum e petkâkalup lah rahum hoi pathoup e lah ao teh, talepawmei hai ao. Khom apâhni e dawk kaawm e talepaw hoi a kâvan.
And heads of brass were upon both. And the height of one head was five cubits. And little nets with pomegranates were upon the heads all around, all of brass. The second pillar was similar, and the pomegranates.
23 Khom vang lah talepaw 96 touh ao. Petkâkalup lah pathoupnae talepaw teh 100 touh a pha.
And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down; and there were one hundred pomegranates in all, surrounded by the little nets.
24 Hahoi, karingkungnaw kahrawikung ni vaihma bawi Seraiah hoi vaihma apâhni e Zephaniah hoi hmaiim khenyawnkung kathum touh hai a man.
And the chief of the military took Seraiah, the first priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the vestibule.
25 Tarankatuknaw e thung kahrawikung lah ta e naw tami sari touh siangpahrang ouk kahmawt e khopui vah kaawm e hoi ransa ka hrawi e cakathutkung, ram dawk e tami minnaw ouk ka pâkuem e hoi ram dawk e taminaw thung hoi 60 touh khopui dawk kaawmnaw hah khopui thung hoi a tâcokhai.
He also took from the city one eunuch who was in charge of the men of war, and seven men among those who served before the face of the king, who were found in the city, and a scribe, a leader of the military, who tested the new recruits, and sixty men from the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
26 Karingkungnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni ahnimouh a ceikhai teh, Riblah e Babilon siangpahrang koevah, a ceikhai.
Then Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, took them, and he led them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27 Babilon siangpahrang ni Hamath ram e Riblah vah ahnimouh a tuk awh teh a thei, hat toteh, Judah teh a ram dawk hoi san lah ceikhai lah ao.
And the king of Babylon struck them and put them to death at Riblah, in the land of Hamath. And Judah was carried away from his land.
28 Hetnaw teh Nebukhadnezar ni tamimaya san lah a hrawi e naw doeh. Kum 7 nae dawk Judahnaw 3023,
This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews;
29 Nebukhadnezar abawinae kum 18 nae dawk Jerusalem hoi tami 832 touh san lah a hrawi.
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred thirty-two souls from Jerusalem;
30 Nebukhadnezar abawinae kum 23 nae dawk karingkungnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni 745 touh san lah a hrawi. Abuemlahoi tami 4600 touh a pha.
in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, carried away of the Jews seven hundred forty-five souls. Therefore, all the souls were four thousand six hundred.
31 Hahoi Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakhin abawinae kum 37, thapa yung 12, hnin 25 nah, Babilon siangpahrang Evilmerodak ni abawinae kum kum touh nah, Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakhin teh a rasa awh teh, thongim hoi a tâco sak awh.
And it happened that, in the thirty-seventh year of the transmigration of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evilmerodach, the king of Babylon, in the very first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and he brought him out of the prison house.
32 Kahawicalah a kâpankhai awh teh, Babilon hoi ahni koe kaawm e siangpahrangnaw e tungkhung hlak ka rasanghnawn lah tungkhung a ta pouh awh.
And he spoke with him for good, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings who were after him in Babylon.
33 Hottelah, Jehoiakhin thongim dawk khohna a kâthung teh, a hringyung thung siangpahrang hmalah bu ouk a ca.
And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread in his sight always, all the days of his life.
34 Hnintangkuem a ham hah Babilon siangpahrang ni kawkhik nahanlah a hringyung pueng, a due hnin totouh hnintangkuem a ham hah a poe.
And for his meals, a continual provision was allotted to him by the king of Babylon, a measure for every single day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
