列王紀下 25
1 漆德克雅為王九年十月十日，巴比倫王拿步高率領全軍前進攻耶路撒冷，紮營圍城，在城四周建築了壁壘，
And in the ninth yeere of his reigne, the tenth moneth and tenth day of the moneth Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel came, he, and all his hoste against Ierusalem, and pitched against it, and they built fortes against it round about it.
2 圍攻京城，直到漆德克雅為王十一年。
So the citie was besieged vnto the eleueth yeere of King Zedekiah.
3 是年四月九日，城中發生了嚴重的飢荒，當地人民已沒有食糧，
And the ninth day of the moneth the famine was sore in the citie, so that there was no bread for the people of the lande.
4 京城遂被攻破。加加丁人還在圍攻城時，君王和全體士兵，夜間出了靠近御園的雙牆城門，逃往阿辣巴。
Then the citie was broken vp, and all the men of warre fled by night, by the way of the gate, which is betweene two walles that was by the Kings garden: nowe the Caldees were by the citie round about: and the King went by the way of the wildernesse.
5 加色丁軍隊便追趕君王，在耶利哥曠野追上了；此時他的軍隊都已離開他散了。
But the armie of the Caldees pursued after the King, and tooke him in the desertes of Iericho, and all his hoste was scattered from him.
6 加色丁軍隊擒獲了君王，帶他去黎貝拉去見巴比倫王。巴比倫王就宣判他的罪案，
Then they tooke the King, and caried him vp to the King of Babel to Riblah, where they gaue iudgement vpon him.
7 且在漆德克雅眼前殺了他的兒子，也剜了他的眼，給他帶上鎖鏈，送往巴比倫去。
And they slew the sonnes of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bounde him in chaines, and caried him to Babel.
8 巴比倫王拿步高為王十九年五月七日，巴比倫王的大臣，衛隊長乃步匝辣當來到了耶路撒冷，
And in the fift moneth, and seuenth day of the moneth, which was the nineteenth yere of King Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, came Nebuzar-adan chiefe stewarde and seruaunt of the King of Babel, to Ierusalem,
9 燒毀了上主的殿、王宮和耶路撒冷所有的民房；凡是高大的建築都用火燒了。
And burnt the house of the Lord, and the Kings house, and all the houses of Ierusalem, and all the great houses burnt he with fire.
10 跟隨衛長的所有加色丁軍隊，拆毀了耶路撒冷周圍是城牆。
And all the armie of the Caldees that were with the chiefe stewarde, brake downe the walles of Ierusalem round about.
11 城中剩下的人民和已投降巴比倫王的人，以及其餘的平民，衛隊長乃步匝辣當都擄了去，
And the rest of the people that were left in the citie, and those that were fled and fallen to the King of Babel, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar-adan chiefe steward carie away captiue.
12 只留下當地一部分最窮的平民作園丁和農夫。
But the chiefe steward left of the poore of the land to dresse the vines, and to till the land.
13 加色丁人又將上主殿前的銅柱，和上主殿內的銅座、銅海都打碎，把銅運往巴比倫；
Also the pillars of brasse that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the brasen Sea that was in the house of the Lord, did the Caldees breake, and caried the brasse of them to Babel.
14 此外，鍋、鏟、蠟剪、香盤，以及行禮的一切銅器，全都帶走；
The pots also and the besomes, and the instruments of musike, and the incense dishes, and al the vessels of brasse that they ministred in, tooke they away.
15 提爐、杯爵，凡是純金純銀的，衛隊長都拿走了。
And the asshe pannes, and the basens, and all that was of gold, and that was of siluer, tooke the chiefe steward away,
16 撒羅滿為上主的殿所製造的兩根柱子，一個銅海和一些盆座，這一切器皿所用的銅，重量無法估計。
With the two pillars, one Sea and the bases, which Salomon had made for the house of the Lord: the brasse of all these vessels was without weight.
17 一根柱子高十八肘，上端有同柱頭，高五肘，柱頭四周有網子和石榴，全是銅的；另一根柱子，也有網子。
The height of the one pillar was eighteene cubits, and the chapiter thereon was brasse, and the height of the chapiter was with networke three cubites, and pomegranates vpon the chapiter rounde about, all of brasse: and likewise was the second pillar with the networke.
18 隊長又擒獲了大司祭色辣雅、副大司祭責法尺雅和三個門丁；
And the chiefe steward tooke Seraiah the chiefe Priest, and Zephaniah the second Priest, and the three keepers of the doore.
19 由城中擄去了一個管理軍隊的宦官，五個在城內搜到的君王的親信，一個徵募當地人民的軍長的書記．和城中搜到的六十個當地平民。
And out of the citie hee tooke an Eunuch that had the ouersight of the men of warre, and fiue men of them that were in the Kinges presence, which were founde in the citie, and Sopher captaine of the hoste, who mustred the people of the lande, and threescore men of the people of the lande, that were founde in the citie.
20 衛隊長乃步匝辣當捉住他們，帶到黎貝拉去見巴比倫王；
And Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde tooke them, and brought them to the King of Babel to Riblah.
21 巴比倫王就在哈瑪特地的黎貝拉將他們殺了；從此，猶大人由本鄉被擄去充軍。
And the King of Babel smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Iudah was caried away captiue out of his owne land.
22 巴比倫王拿步高對留在猶大地的人民，派定了沙番的孫子，阿希甘的兒子革達里雅作他們的首長。
Howbeit there remained people in the land of Iudah, whom Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel left, and made Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan ruler ouer them.
23 眾軍長和他們的士兵一聽說巴比倫王委派了革達里雅為首長，乃塔尺雅的兒子依市瑪耳，卡勒亞的兒子約哈南，乃托法人堂胡默特的兒子色辣雅，瑪阿加人的兒子雅匝尼雅和他們的士兵，都來到米茲帕見革達里雅。
Then when all the captaines of the host and their men heard, that the king of Babel had made Gedaliah gouernour, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, to wit, Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and Seraiah the sonne of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Iaazaniah the sonne of Maachathi, they and their men.
24 革達里雅遂對他們和他們的士兵起誓說：「你們不要害怕加色丁人的臣僕，安心住在此地，服事巴比倫王，就必能相安無事」。
And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and sayd vnto them, Feare not to be the seruants of the Caldees: dwell in the land, and serue the King of Babel, and ye shalbe well.
25 但是到了七月，王家的後裔厄里沙瑪的孫子，乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳帶了十個人前來，殺了革達里雅，和與他同在米茲帕的猶大人及加色丁人。
But in the seuenth moneth Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah the sonne of Elishama of the Kings seede, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, and he died, and so did he the Iewes, and the Caldees that were with him at Mizpah.
26 於是所有的人民，不分貴賤大小和眾軍長，因為害怕加色丁人，都起身逃往埃及去了。
Then all ye people both small and great, and the captaines of the armie arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraide of the Caldees.
27 猶大王耶苛尼雅被擄後第三十七年十二月二十七日，巴比倫王厄威耳默洛達客在他登極元年，大赦猶大王耶苛尼雅，放他出獄，
Notwithstanding in the seuen and thirtieth yeere after Iehoiachin King of Iudah was caried away, in the twelft moneth and the seuen and twentieth day of the moneth, Euil-merodach King of Babel in the yeere that hee began to reigne, did lift vp the head of Iehoiachin King of Iudah out of the prison,
28 親切與他交談，令他坐在與他一同在巴比倫的眾王之上。
And spake kindly to him, and set his throne aboue the throne of the Kings that were with him in Babel,
29 耶苛尼雅脫去囚服，以後一生日日與王共進飲食。
And changed his prison garments: and he did continually eate bread before him, all the dayes of his life.
30 他的生活費用，在他有生之日，每天不斷由巴比倫王供應。
And his portion was a continual portion giuen him by the King, euery day a certaine, all the dayes of his life.
