< 2 Kings 25 >
1 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it. And they built forts against it round about.
Omiyo e odiechiengʼ mar apar mar dwe mar apar e higa mar ochiko mar loch Zedekia, Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nodhi gi jolweny mage duto momonjo Jerusalem. Nolworo dala maduongʼno mi ogoyone agengʼa koni gi koni.
2 So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Dala maduongʼno ne ogone agengʼa nyaka higa mar apar gachiel mar ruoth Zedekia.
3 On the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
E odiechiengʼ mar ochiko e dwe mar angʼwen kech mane ni e dala maduongʼno nomedore makoro ne onge chiemo mane ji nyalo chamo.
4 Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled 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 the king went by the way of the Arabah.
Bangʼ mano ohinga mar dala maduongʼno nomuki kendo jolweny duto noringo ka tony gotieno ka gikalo e rangach man e kind ohinga ariyo man but puoth ruoth, kata obedo ni jo-Babulon nolworo dala maduongʼno kamano. Negiringo ka gichomo Araba,
5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho. And all his army was scattered from him.
to jolwenj Babulon nolawo ruoth mojuke e pewe Jeriko. Jolwenje duto noringo oweye moke,
6 Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah. And they gave judgment upon him.
kendo gimako ruoth. Ne gitere Ribla ir ruodh Babulon, kendo kanyo ema nongʼadne buch twech.
7 And they killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
Neginego yawuot Zedekia e wangʼe koneno. Bangʼe negigolo wengene oko magitweye gi nyoroche mag nyinyo mi gitere Babulon.
8 Now in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem.
E odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo mar dwe mar abich e higa mar apar gochiko mar loch Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, Nebuzaradan jatend jolweny marito ruoth, ma en achiel kuom jodong ruodh Babulon nobiro Jerusalem.
9 And he burnt the house of Jehovah, and the king's house. And all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, he burnt with fire.
Nowangʼo hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kar dak ruoth kod udi duto man Jerusalem. Bende nowangʼo udi duto moger mabeyo.
10 And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, broke down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
Jolweny duto mag Babulon mane ichiko gi jatend jolweny marito ruoth ne omuko ohinga moluoro Jerusalem.
11 And the remnant of the people that were left in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the multitude, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive.
Nebuzaradan jatend jolweny notero e twech joma nodongʼ e dala maduongʼno, kaachiel gi oganda mamoko kod joma noringo modhi ir ruodh Babulon mondo otony.
12 But the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
To jatend lweny noweyo jopinyno moko mane odhier ahinya mondo oti e puothe mag mzabibu kod puothe mamoko.
13 And the pillars of brass that were in the house of Jehovah, and the bases and the brazen sea that were in the house of Jehovah, the Chaldeans broke in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.
Jo-Babulon nomuko sirni mag mula, rachungi mag taya kod Karaya Maduongʼ mar mula mane ni e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne gitero mulago nyaka Babulon.
14 And they took away the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered.
Bende negikawo agulni, opawo, gir ngʼado otambi mar taya, bakunde kod gik moko duto molos gi mula mane itiyogo e hekalu.
15 And the captain of the guard took away the firepans, and the basins, that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver.
Jatend jolweny marito ruoth nokawo gik moko duto molos gi dhahabu kata fedha ma gin gima iwangʼoe ubani kod bakunde mitimogo misengini.
16 The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases, which Solomon had made for the house of Jehovah, the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
Mula mane ogolo e sirni ariyo, gi Karaya Maduongʼ kod rachungi mag taya, mane Solomon olosone hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, ne pek ma ok nyal pim.
17 The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a capital of brass was upon it. And the height of the capital was three cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the capital round about, all of brass. And the second pillar had like these with network.
Siro ka siro borne ne romo fut piero ariyo gabiriyo. Mula mane ni e ewi siro ka siro ne romo fut angʼwen gi nus, kendo nokede gi gik mongʼinore ongʼinore molwore koni gi koni. Siro machielo man-gi gik mongʼinore ongʼinore, ne chal kod mokwongo.
18 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold.
Jatend jolweny marito ruoth nomako Seraya jadolo maduongʼ, gi Zefania jadolo maluwe kod ji adek ma jorit dhoot hekalu moterogi e twech.
19 And he took an officer out of the city who was set over the men of war; and five men of those who saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe, the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land who were found in the city.
To kuom joma ne odongʼ e dala maduongʼno, nomako jatelo mane ochungʼ ne jolweny kod ji abich ma jongʼad rieko ne ruoth. Bende nomako jagoro mane tichne en ndiko nying joma onego bed jolweny kod jodonge piero auchiel mane oyudi e dala maduongʼno.
20 And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
Nebuzaradan jatend lweny nomakogi duto mokelogi Ribla ir ruodh Babulon.
21 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.
Ruoth nogolo chik mondo neg-gi Ribla kanyo, e piny jo-Hamath. Omiyo Juda noter e twech mabor gi pinye owuon.
22 And as for the people who were left in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, governor over them.
Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon noyiero Gedalia wuod Ahikam, ma wuod Shafan mondo otel ne ji mane odongʼ Juda.
23 Now when all the captains of the forces, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.
Kane jatend jolweny duto kod jogi nowinjo ni ruodh Babulon oseyiero Gedalia kaka jatelo maduongʼ, negibiro ir Gedalia e dala miluongo ni Mizpa. Jogo ne gin Ishmael wuod Nethania, Johanan wuod Karea, Seraya wuod Tanhumeth ja-Netofath, Jazania ja-Maakath kod jogegi.
24 And Gedaliah swore to them and to their men, and said to them, Fear not because of the servants of the Chaldeans. Dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
Gedalia nokwongʼore kosingorenegi niya, “Kik uluor jotend Babulon, to daguru e pinyni kendo mondo uti ne ruodh Babulon eka unudhi maber.”
25 But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal seed, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, so that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldeans who were with him at Mizpah.
Kata kamano, e dwe mar abiriyo Ishmael wuod Nethania, ma wuod Elishama mane koth joka ruoth, nobiro gi ji apar ma ginego Gedalia kod jo-Juda gi jo-Babulon mane ni kode Mizpa.
26 And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces, arose, and came to Egypt, for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
Nikech gima notimoreni, ji duto chakre jochan nyaka joma omewo, to gi jotend jolweny duto, noringo modhi Misri nikech negiluoro jo-Babulon.
27 And it came to pass in the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison.
E higa mar piero adek gabiriyo mar twech Jehoyakin ruodh Juda, e higa mane Evil-Merodak obedo ruodh Babulon, nogonyo Jehoyakin e twech e odiechiengʼ mar piero ariyo gabiriyo, e dwe mar apar gariyo.
28 And he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon,
Nowuoyo kode modembore kendo nomiye kom duongʼ moloyo ruodhi mamoko mane ni kode e twech Babulon.
29 and changed his prison garments. And Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life,
Omiyo Jehoyakin nolonyo lepe mag twech kendo e ndalo ngimane duto ne ochiemo pile pile e mesa ruoth.
30 and for his allowance. There was a continual allowance given him from the king, every day a portion, all the days of his life.
Odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ, ruoth ne miyo Jehoyakin pok mowinjore kode ndalo duto mag ngimane.
